I had intended for this to become my money-making blog by using it for PayPerPost, but that obviously hasn't happened yet.
For one, my blog isn't up to date and I forget about it. And I'm not exactly sure how to use PayPerPost. I've seen bloggers make hundreds of dollars with it and I am desperately trying to find out how.
I am a poor college student with a dog who has EPI, which costs an arm and a leg. Any extra money would be so helpful!
I really need to remember to blog here and then start doing PPP.
I have a full school schedule, but the classes aren't too hard. I should be able to make time for this blog... I just have to REMEMBER it.

PPP
My blog just got approved for pay per post. Basically, you review different websites and their products so other people will check them out. The blogging community is kind of close-knit, so bloggers are always asking for other blogger opinions. You will get paid to have ads on blogs. It makes sense to sign up for PPP if you are a loyal blogger and like reviewing websites or sharing stories about products. I highly recommend it.
It's been awhile
My poor neglected blog. I'm sorry I haven't updated lately. I was busy with school and getting ready for more school this summer.
I enjoyed a two week break from classes, but started biology this morning. It will be super tough, but I am determined to make a good grade.
Everything in my life is great. I turned 22 yesterday and had a great day.
I had a birthday lunch with my best friend, boyfriend, and mom, at a restaurant that I call my second home. The manager bought my lunch and I got the birthday free dessert as well. It was wonderful.
Then, my best friend and I went out and saw my horse. We cleaned her up and tried to make her look pretty. After that, we went out for drinks and met back up with my boyfriend.
Overall, it was a good birthday and I'm sad that it's no longer my birthday! We should have birthday weeks, not just one day. One day is not long enough to celebrate a birthday.

Plastic Purchases
Credit cards. Most Americans have one and most have credit card debt.
Each year, more young people are discovering credit cards and diving into debt. They think they can buy, buy, buy and pay whenever they want. But, they're wrong. Credit cards often have hidden costs and high interest rates.
Capital One is a good place to start if you want a credit card. They have a variety of different cards to suit your needs. They also have rewards cards, which seem to be very popular these days.
I have always been responsible with my credit cards until recently. I now charge almost everything I buy and only pay off a small portion of my credit card bill. My debt is slowing building up because the only income I have is that which my father decides to give me.
I'm a full-time student trying to get by on little money. Credit cards seem to be an easy way to get by in life while being broke.
Everyone should have a financial plan before applying for any credit or debit card. Having a steady income would also be a plus before applying for a card.
Be careful when you start charging everything you buy. The debt will sneak up on you.

Long Weekend
The boyfriend left early Thursday morning for Colorado. He's called multiple times a day everyday since then, but I still miss him like crazy. My friend and I have stayed busy for the beginning of the long weekend, but today I was stuck at home alone.
Why was I stuck at home? Because of the snow and ice. Snow and ice in April in Texas. Something's really wrong with that picture!
Jack loved it and ate more snow/ice than he probably should have. It can't be healthy or tasty, for that matter. But he is a dog, so I'm sure it was delicious to him.
I went out last night, but was home by 12:45. I slept in this morning and then was completely lazy all day. I should have run on the treadmill, but the house was super cold. I didn't turn on the heater because then it would just get too hot. I'd rather the house be cold than hot.
The boyfriend will be home after 3 a.m. Monday, so it won't be too much longer before I get to see him! Monday we are spending all day together after class, but then he has to get down to business and work Tues. and Wed.. I hate that he works so hard at the school paper. He puts way too much effort in to it and gets little credit for it. Makes me angry. He deserves more credit. He works harder than anyone else there.
Anyways, I should probably be getting ready for bed now. I plan on running a mile in the morning, then another one tomorrow night. We'll see if that actually happens!

Dog Food
I can't believe it's April. A new month already. Amazing how fast time flies.
Maybe since it's a new month I should change Jack's dog food. I have him on Purina One Large Breed adult formula right now and he will not eat it. I have to mix it with the Pedigree that we feed our other dogs. Why is it that my dog eats crappy food, but not the 'special' food for large dogs?? I don't understand.
According to http://www.leerburg.com and many of my friends, an all-natural homemade dog food is the way to go. I really don't think I have the time to make dog food. I don't even cook for myself.
Does anyone have any suggestions on dog food? I'm kind of scared to try anything new right now due to the recall.
Other than not liking his food, Jack is doing much better. His limp is gone and he has his energy back. I have him on puppy vitamins from http://www.drsfosterandsmith.com and they seem to be helping with his shedding and overall energy.
I even think Jack has grown an inch since last week!

Tuesday
Jack is battling another episode of pano (growing pains in puppies), so he is on Metacam, which is like Advil for dogs. He tolerates it well, so he has been on it for every episode (this is his third, it's his hind leg this time).
Yesterday I took him to get a shot of Metacam, then this morning I gave him some oral suspension. Well, he thinks he's fine now because the pain is tolerable. He's been running around, playing with his toys, and even eating a little bit of food (finally!). Of course, his running around really isn't helping... but he can't feel the pain anymore. haha. Poor pup.
His growth plates are closing and should close in the next three months. I am hoping that his left hind leg doesn't get affected, but it's still possible.
Jack's feeling no pain, but I'm pretty stressed myself.
I'm pretty sure I'm failing all of my classes right now, but only because I never go to class. I am starting to go to class now and am planning to keep going for the rest of the semester. I have major senioritis and am just ready to get the hell out of this place.
I had a class this morning at 9:30 and it was really pointless. All the classes I am taking are pointless to me. I do not want to be a journalist, so why do I care about all this stuff??
I'm trying to be positive about everything, but it's all weighing heavily on my mind. School, money, and boyfriend troubles. That sums up my life right now.
If anyone has any relaxation tips for me, I'd love to hear them. My boyfriend says all I need to do is relax and be happy, but he doesn't know how difficult that is for me.

New Blog
Well, I decided to start an online blog that can be viewed by anyone. I'm not sure how long this will last, but we shall see. This blog will be mostly about my dog and our adventures... with a little bit of school and my life thrown in the mix. Real names will not be used, except for my dog's name.
I should introduce him now. His name is Jack. He is 11 months old and will turn one-year-old on April 21. He is a black purebred German Shepherd (American line). He currently stands 30" at his shoulder and weighs 96 lbs. He's not finished growing yet and should weigh over 100 lbs by the time his growth plates close.
He is my baby and I treat him like a human child. My life revolves around him. Him and my boyfriend, that is. They compete for my attention. ;-)
I'm in college in Texas. I'll graduate in December with a B.A. in psychology (journalism minor). I'm slacking off big time in school right now, but still have a couple of months to bring up my grades!
After I graduate, I am moving myself, my dog, and my boyfriend to Kentucky. There I will work with racehorses, either at the track or a farm or as a bloodstock agent. I might get my masters' online or another degree online. That is the plan so far. I really haven't planned it too well.
I guess that is enough for my first entry. I'll try to keep my posts interesting and not just daily life stuff.
Check back for updates!
