As usual, this past week was so busy so I was not able to blog about my September income. However, even though I have time today, I decided not to mention the exact earnings I had but blog about how it went overall. Just to give an overview of my September earnings, I was able to earn way way more than my target.

It’s been six months since I started my blogging journey but September was the first month I kinda prioritized blogging and earning for myself. I am really happy and more than just satisfied with everything that happened last month because despite the limited of hours I spent to work on my few blogs, I still managed to earn a nice and satisfying amount.

I hope that October would be a better month for me. I also hope to setup new blogs that I can monetize so I could increase my earnings.

When Kuya realized that Google just had the Third Quarter PR update, I immediately checked all the blogs that I monetize and got a bit dismayed with their updated page ranks.

But actually, this page rank update was so-so for me. Maybe it’s because I only have a few websites to maintain, so the impact was not too strong for me. Out of the ten websites that I started from scratch that I monetize (or yet to monetize), two retained their pagerank (I’m just not sure if their PRs are yet to be updated), three increased, two lost their PRs and three decreased by one notch. The two sites that lost their PRs are those that I just bought the other day. Too bad for me. Anyway, I know that there are downsides of this business and this is just one of them.

Then, when I was to blog about this PR update, I realized something.. I actually almost forgot that I still have another blog – this blog! Surprisingly, I got a pagerank of 2!!! Imagine an 85-day old blog jumping from PR 0 to 2! To think that I haven’t made any efforts to promote my blog, this page rank increase is really something to celebrate for me.

I hope that the next page rank update would be less harsh to me and to all bloggers out there.

Kanpai to all bloggers and to all readers of judysungit.com!

Since it was Eze’s birthday last Monday, I didn’t want to write anything about something else here in my site so I was not able to blog about my September 11-20 income.

Here it is. Sorry for being delayed for five days.

I actually gave myself a $100 target minimum income per week so that at the end of the month, I’d have $400 in my account. (that is approximately Php 18,000) But thank goodness because I am earning far above that. For the 11th-20th of this month, I was able to earn $324.37! And aside from that, I earned another $125 from PayU2Blog and BTop who pay every other week. (I don’t want to count them into my income.) However, I bought another three domains so I could have more sites to monetize. I cashed out about $150 for them. Business requires capital and since I am aiming for higher income this coming October, I really needed to cash out. I can’t wait to launch them!

I can say that since I became a full time blogger, I was able to contribute in our expenses here at home as well as support my parents financially while I can still save for myself.

I can’t wait to compute for my entire September income! In a week, you’ll see a post here in my blog that considers all the money that flowed in of my PayPal account. I hope things will remain this way or much better if they get better.

Cheers to all Bloggers!

The way we celebrated Eze’s birthday was different this year. I bought a cake and showed it to him through the webcam and he blew his candle through it as well. I was not able to print the screen while he was blowing the candle. I had a party-size blackforest cake on my right hand and a stuffed toy on my left hand. Geez that was really tough! Anyway, here are the pics I can share.

It wasn’t really easy to celebrate this way. I actually had a hard time stuffing the cake into my mouth. I just wish we would celebrate our next birthdays together.

Today is Ezhie’s 27th birthday . Time flies so fast and this makes me excited! God may not give everything that we’re wishing for right now, but I know He’ll give us what we deserve or even more than that at the right time.

Ezhie has been a great influence in my life. Since we started this journey together, we changed from two individuals into a couple who blend well together. Despite our differences, I am very positive that we can surpass every trial we may meet along the way.

It is true that the strength of the relationship does not depend on how long it has been standing. What contributes a lot in it is the determination of the two persons involved to fight for love and to hang on no matter how hard it is. Our friends who know how we started are really amazed by how we handled our relationship, thinking we are a perfect couple. However, our relationship is not perfect BUT we managed to survive despite the imperfection. We’ve had so many problems before.. they were so grave that I thought we had to end it already. But whenever one of us feels like giving up, the other one fights for us so we always find a way to give it another shot.

Ezhie taught me a lot of things and I can say that I really changed a lot since the first day we had “us”. He taught me how to value life and the people around me who support me in every step of the way. He also showed me how to be contented yet never stop dreaming and fighting for that dream. If I were to enumerate everything he has influenced in my life, I might run out of words.. I am really grateful for having him as my partner.

Many people wouldn’t understand why I was able to hold on to our relationship for almost seven years now despite the problems, differences and the distance between us. I too, have no idea why. All I know and am very certain of is this feeling that binds us.. no matter how far he is from me.. no matter how different our ideals and beliefs may be..

I don’t want to think about this but I know it may happen.. If in case we decided to separate ways, I would still be very thankful for spending a huge fraction of my life with Ezhie..

But I believe that wouldn’t happen because we won’t let it.. and I know God wouldn’t let it too..

Happy birthday to the man I love..

BTW, here is something I made for him. I kinda rushed it..
