Making money online

For many years I have thought that making money online would be a great idea. I could work anywhere anytime. No more waking up in the morning to plough thru snow and darkness. No more sitting inside on warm, sunny days.

Most lucrative way to earn money is affiliate marketing. You don't need your own product, no warehouse. Just a computer and some time.

I'm going to try this for serious this time. I'm lazy as a cow, but I rather make some effort than start looking for a job :)

So much is written about this subject by better and more experienced marketers, so I will not go into detail here (after all, I'm a scanner). Instead I will list some resources. I hope to get some money from them ofcourse, but I have tried them and can recommend them, unless otherwise stated.

The most inspiring book on the subject is

 Tim Ferris : 4-hour workweek

What I like the most is that this book talks also about WHY to earn income online and how much money you really need for your ideal lifestyle. I highly recommend this if you are considering working from home.

  • finishing my studies
  • getting a job
  • ending part time job
  • learning french

  • earn affiliate income

If you can not come up with any of your own, here is a fun generator

MY RESOLUTIONS

I will not start a diet.
I will not start an exercise program.

This is only partly humour. The reason I am promising this is because I have tried to do this for years, so I decided to save my self from the stress and forget about it. No counting calories or reps. No more diet books or exercise videos. Freedom!

Natural lipstain (with kool aid)

I was looking for natural substitutes for lipstick/stain. This is what I found
  • berries
  • beets
  • kool aid
what now? We don't drink kool aid here, but I knew enough to doubt. I checked their website and the mix contains among other things;
  • aspartame
  • acesulfame potassium
  • artificial flavor
  • artificial color
If it says ARTIFICIAL it's not NATURAL!

However, you CAN stain your lips with kool aid or jell-o powder.

1000 money

If you got 1000 €/£/$ more a year what would you do with it?
I work part time. What I earn is 'chicken change' BUT it adds up to 1000 euro per year. So I've decided to use that to something nice. But what? Maybe...
  • vacation
  • books 
  • home decoration
  • cosmetics
  • clothes
  • massage
  • arranging a party
    buy an espresso machine
    start a small online business
    buy chocolate for everyone
    hire a cleaning lady
    live one month without other income
    buy a new computer
    emergency fund
    arts and crafts courses
    excercise equipment and classes
    plastic surgery

Shoji screen

In traditional Japanese architecture, a shōji (障子) is a door, window or room divider consisting of translucent paper over a frame of wood which holds together a lattice of wood or bamboo. While washi is the traditional paper, shōji may be made of paper made by modern manufacturing processes; plastic is also in use. Wikipedia
The floor is tatami. Wikipedia
I want to have a shoji screen, since my bed room and family room are the same. My boyfriend is also moving in with his black furniture.
His style is very simple (which I like), but I also like chandeliers and huge flower arrangements. We both are very disorganized but would like neat surroundings. The home theatre system needs to look good too.
So I thought japanese style would be the best compromise.

The screen from Ikea is probably the one we are going to get.


I have considered making a lamp from that style too. Maybe I could come up with compatible bedside tables.

    Copying clothes

    Rub-off method
    ----
    -Choose a piece of clothing you wear a lot and fits well
    - Iron the fabric if you feel like it
    3 Smooth the fabric over a large sheet of paper on a flat preferably padded surface (like bed)
    4 Pin the fabric and paper together (pushing pins thru them to matress)
    5 Trace the outlines of the piece
    6 Mark the thread, openings, darts etc
    7 Mark the pattern, for example Shirt 12/2011, front piece (*2)
    -Repeat on all of the pieces (front, back, pocket etc)

    Choose a fabric similar to the original piece of clothing (stiffness, thickness, strech etc.)

    Payback time

    I'm f*****g tired of people talking about things they don't know anything about. Giving opinions and advice without anybody asking for them. So it's payback time.
    Some people make a career in complaining. Like this guy who used to be in MTV (-you know what I hate...) He has written a book Why we suck. The book sucks, I read a couple of pages. It tells honestly that americans are fat and lazy. No shit, Sherloc. Waste of time reading that.
    Yesterday was a movie night. We watced Melancoly. Like for ten minutes. Sucked! Big time. Watched Simpsons instead. Wich was nice.
    Babies suck. They do!

    Hedonism

    Best invention ever! Philosophy that says what ever you enjoy is the right thing to do. Brilliant!
    Eat chocolate, drink beer and smoke whatever. Getting fat, hangover and cancer you may not like. But it's up to you!
    Do whatever you feel like (exept hurt other people, thank you). You only live once. Or nine times or whatever, anyway there is no reason to suffer more than necessary.
    Ugh.

    Saturday (not what you'd expect)

    Today:
    Working (not really) in library. Customer asked for depressed, whining songs with fast beat. Very nice assignment.

    Rekindeling intrest in speed/rapid/photo reading and mindmapping. Planning about writing about Loli & Gothic. Managed not to borrow box of movie music.

    Yesterday evening I was crying and bitching and getting offended about anything. Maybe I should write on bordeline personality too. And satanism. Maybe it's just the hormones. Sucks to be a woman. On the other hand, the other option is being a man. So I'm content this way. Sorry boyfriend, sucks to be you too.

    I would like a trip to Madeira, most beautiful place in the world. Having a small christmas party for my friends could also be refreshing.

    My three year old daughter wants a princess party and I'm planning on decorating her room princess themed. That's going to be one post.

    Stupid contactlenses keep drying all of the time, but without them I'm allmost blind. Damned if you do, damned if you don't (wear them). My glasses would be bottle-bottom thick, I don't want my pretty nose to get under all that stress. And my eyes look like the size of a peanut with them. Not a nice look.

    Please correct any mistakes in my spelling. Thank you, come again!
