The Results Say Otherwise…

I ended up doing good on my math test. I got 13/15, so I was happy. As for the Biology test, I could “totally have a BF!” (Reference to White Girls BF, not best friend). I got a 70% after the 4-point curve. Utterly unacceptable. That means that I’ll have to score higher than that for all the other tests, then that one will be dropped. When I saw that test score, I thought that I hadn’t studied! I recognized so many things on the test, but I mixed some of them up. Some of the mistakes were so silly that I wanted to cry. Lucky thing I turned in the optional extra credit assignment!

I’m doing a stock photo shoot next week Tuesday! It’s for TFP, so I won’t be getting paid the $600 bucks Shivon got paid for doing hers, but I will (hopefully) get some stunning business-style photos for my (non-existent) portfolio.

I’ve been having a good start with Smorty lately, so I decided to join Blogsvertise. Smorty doesn’t have many advertisers. That disappoints me a little, because their advertisers generally pay well. I got one that was worth $19.20! Not bad for the little bit of visitors that I get. I will definitely post a paypal screen cap once I get my money Friday! The only thing I don’t like about Smorty is that it takes 120 hours for the blog post to be approved. That’s a full 5 days from when you submit the post to them. It makes up for it that you get your approved payments at the end of the week, though.

With Blogsvertise, I signed up and my blog was approved almost instantly. The funny thing is I didn’t even do the experimental post that they said I’d need to do in order to be approved. It was unpaid and about Blogsvertise, to make sure we’ve got the hang of things before posting “real blog ads.” I purposely didn’t do it because it wasn’t paid and was actually a “real blog ad.” If they hadn’t approved me, I just wouldn’t work for them. Anyways, that was yesterday, and today I got my first $10 post from them. My blog post has already been approved, but it takes 30 days before I’ll get the payout.

These companies all have their good points and drawbacks.

For UK Readers (And Talkers), There’s TalkTalk

January 29, 2008   Filed Under: General   226 words

Free Broadband should be among the top reasons to take a serious look at what TalkTalk has to offer. If you’ve been delaying signing up for a faster internet connection because of the price involved, you’ll be happy to know that TalkTalk’s free internet package is high speed broadband!

TalkTalk isn’t limited to offering broadband. This company also has several phone packages. Free landline calls are available with a cheap landline rental. That means unlimited calls to anyone within the UK! For about 6 pounds more, you’ll get unlimited calls to 36 destinations in the world. And we all know that many of those in the UK have family elsewhere–the US, the Caribbean, etc. One additional perk is that you’ll earn 2 Nectar points for each pound you spend on your phone bill. If you’re already a Nectar customer, you can register your current Nectar card so that you don’t have to start over again.

It is time for you to treat yourself to something better. And treat your wallet to something cheaper. Head on over to TalkTalk and check out what they have to offer you!

Online Gambling & Casino Blog

January 27, 2008   Filed Under: General   185 words

Online gambling is getting big these days. And blogging has already become the next big “thing.” It was, therefore, inevitable that the two would combine. That’s the logic behind the Online Casino blog.

The Online Casino blog is a revolutionary website for gamblers and those who would like to partake of online gambling. Unbiased reviews of casino websites are available. Perhaps the best feature that’s available is the rules and tutorials for those who are new to games such as blackjack and poker. A few weeks ago I mentioned that I accompanied my boyfriend to a casino to play poker. I had no idea what they were doing, but this website gives me details. Maybe next time I can even join in on the fun!

The Online Casino Blog is organized, and it’s easy to find the category that you are looking for (whether it be that you’re ready to find a online casino or you need to learn how to play the games). There’s also a news section for general things going on in the gambling world.
