			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I just logged into one of my paid post companies and found over 14 posts to be written.  Sigh&#8230;once upon a time, I will be happy.  But lately, I have so many things, priorities changed.  </p>
<p>I have also not been responding to some of the companies that provided me the posts and I have to write within five days.  I just let them expire and never bother.</p>
<p>Things change.  Priorities shift places.  What matters previously, become less important now.  USD5 used to mean a lot to me previously because if I can get 20 times of USD5, I am making a lot of money in a day already.  But things get a bit dry and tiring after a while.</p>
<p>I have taken off PayPerPost codes and also the links on the  posts on some blogs but I can never clean them all.  There are thousands of posts on at least five blogs.  So, it is almost impossible to clean up all the blogs.</p>
<p>Therefore, I can never go legal in some of my blogs even if i should decide  that I am not ever going to sell links and write paid posts.   </p>
<p>After making a lot of money, spending a lot of time teaching people how to make money, I have sort of move on.  It is a good thing.  I am free from the bondage of making money online.  There is no more pressure to check my mobile phone when I am out shopping or having a good time to see if I have any money to make online.  There is no more worries about deadline except for the occasional local ones.</p>
<p>However&#8230;.I am still getting a stable income from passive income so I will just enjoy the phase until I feel like getting back to make money online aggressively.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I just signed in to my Youtube account and was asked if I want to merge my Youtube account with Google.     </p>
<p>I am not sure about others but with all these mergers and takeovers and whatnots, soon Google is going to watch every breath we take and every shit we make.  LOL.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s wait for Google to take over our Flickr photo account, Facebook, Twitter, Wordpress and every darn thing on the internet and we will be praying hard to Google god because  Google controls every single thing we do online.</p>
<p>Sheesh&#8230;. I shouldn&#8217;t be grumbling so much because Google Adsense is still giving me a comfortable income, Gmail is the more reliable email account, Google Analytics keep me happy with the stats they churn out and Google Youtube is where I get to broadcast everything I see.  And let&#8217;s not forget Firefox, PICASA and Blogger.  Oh, the annoying pagerank cult too!</p>
<p>So, all hail Google god.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>First of all, thank you very much for the contributions for meals for the homeless.  I have collected more than what I required.</p>
<p>Since the money are from all of you, I must produce the expenditures :</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/5xmom/3387287650/" title="DSCF0252.JPG by 5xmom, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3574/3387287650_cab47307fb.jpg" width="500" height="406" alt="DSCF0252.JPG" /></a></p>
<p>I spent about RM280.  Two receipts for the purchase of chicken, vegetables and spices are shown above.  I also bought some soya sauce and soya bean pastes from a sundry shop.  That&#8217;s how I rounded up the figure to RM280.  Some of the items like eggs, oil, rice and cooking gas were also donated and not included in the RM280.</p>
<p>I collected : USD108 which I have cashed out at 3.54.<br />
USD 108 x 3.54 = RM380<br />
Ringgit Malaysia= RM408</p>
<p>TOTAL COLLECTED :  RM788</p>
<p>TOTAL SPENT :          RM280<br />
                         ____________<br />
                                RM508<br />
                        ========</p>
<p>I have RM508 in hands now.  I will either use the money for another cooking project or I will donate it to The Lighthouse which is a drop-in centre for the homeless.  The Lighthouse provides meals for the homeless every day during the week.</p>
<p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/hp3pGOOLVlc&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/hp3pGOOLVlc&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p>
<p>The above video is not related to my cooking project but it is a documentary we are trying to produce to highlight the plight of the homeless.  I hope the video helps to give others a glimpse of what it is like sleeping on the street.</p>
<p>Thanks to everyone for the contributions.  Please trust me that the extra money collected will be used for the same purpose &#8211; giving meals to the homeless.  If you wish to see what we cooked, you can find some photos on my <a href="http://www.chanlilian.net/2009/03/23/photos-of-cooking-project/">personal blog here on our cooking project</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gee, I feel kind of funny to ask people for donations.  I use my son to do the dirty job on my personal blog and my recipe blog.</p>
<p>But I think it is easier I ask it head on because many of you have PayPal account.</p>
<p>Do you have USD2 to spare?  Can you donate it to me using the PayPal Donate button on the sidebar?</p>
<p>I wish to raise money to prepare foods for the homeless.  There are 180 of them and USD1 is enough to feed one person.  I will be buying and cooking the meals with my friends this Saturday.   So, the dateline is Friday and after that, I will stop taking donations.</p>
<p>If we have extra money, we will donate it to prepare the next meals.</p>
<p>HELP ME FEED THEM, PLEASE!  </p>
<p>Thank you!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some Chinese are highly superstitious and observe a lot of do&#8217;s and don&#8217;ts to obtain good luck.  They will check with the fortune teller and calendar to see when is an auspicious time to resume business after the Chinese New Year celebrations.</p>
<p>When opening business premises, it is normally done by lighting a lot of firecrackers and giving of &#8216;lai see&#8217; or angpows which are red packets with money inside to employees.</p>
<p>So, is that why I haven&#8217;t been blogging over here on my make money blog for so many days?  Is it because I am waiting for an auspicious time to resume blogging?</p>
<p>Nay&#8230;..I don&#8217;t believe in superstitions.  I didn&#8217;t blog for so many days because the new year festivities have drained me out.   Moreover, things are getting very slow lately.  There are no exciting news on the make money online arena, as far as I am concerned.</p>
<p>Income for January 2009 wasn&#8217;t too bad because of the December spike of Christmas shopping.  January was ok too because some of my food blogs did very well due to Chinese New Year recipes and foods searches. </p>
<p>However, I do wonder what February will bring?  It is the shortest month.  Business is slow globally.  Some paid post companies are killing the industry with 50 US cent for PR 1/10 blog.  So, yeah, gloomy days ahead.</p>
<p>But that&#8217;s not the end.  It is time to work harder and be more creative in finding new oasis.</p>
<p>So, let&#8217;s set off some firecrackers and begin a new year full of promises and obstacles.</p>
