My Favorite Websites

The sites are from my collection of favorites. The first time I came across them I was excited because they were full of great information. I just had to share them with you.

My sites:

Reading

It affects the individual’s mind and body. To begin with, making reading as a habit increases one’s comprehension of words and does add to a person’s vocabularies. Upon reading it helps one to sleep better. You would want to engage in this type of activity for 10-15 minutes or longer whatever you prefer. To start all you have to do is to have the desire to read. There are free e-books online that you can read or even newspapers and magazines online.

Allyoucanread.com– A website of magazines and newspapers from 200 countries. They give you the option to sign up.

Alloy.com– Online community for teens that includes diva, flirt, life, VIP and more.

CosmoGirl – Teens site that has horoscope, beauty, fashion, games, free stuff, polls and etc. They have sponsored links, which you can enter to win stuff. There is an advice section where you get answers to your love questions from Jesse McCartney.

Making ones own products

Being productive of ones time can make a good citizen. It lessens the possibility of doing unhealthy things and preoccupies the mind. One thing for sure you will feel accomplished or feel good about yourself since you start creating your own products. It could be from simple things that don’t have to be that expensive. You can start this from 30 minutes to 1 hour but depends on how complex you want it to be. The sites I like that help me make my own products are:

Pionnerthinking.com– If you’re looking for an awesome site with readers’ submission on beauty and tips look no more because this site has it all. I come to this site for the best materials on mind and body, live discussion boards and home and family categories.

Free-beauty-tips.com - Beauty site with the beauty recipes. The homemade recipes you can do them at home just using mostly household ingredients.

Writing

Expressing one’s thoughts, ideas, emotions in writing can be therapeutic. It’s been said that writing can teach anyone or individuals to improve their writing abilities. Many writers started out by attempting to write their first material without any type of layout. Just like you, writing is for everyone it doesn’t discriminate anyone. Sometimes when you’re unclear about what to do or you want your thoughts to gain full clarity, writing it down makes you see the whole picture. Writing in a journal once a day doesn’t hurt, it actually encourages a person to write. Drafts doesn’t have to be that perfect. Who knows you might be the next star writer making money on the side. The sites that you can start practicing to write is the link I will give below.

Mouthshut.com– Writing community in which product reviews are written on topics such as computers, education, entertainment, and more. Reviews on topics get to be rated and commented if applicable. If a reviewer publishes good articles and always gets excellent rating chances are that person can be featured as a Star Writer.

Rememory.com– It’s a fun place to just read, write, and share experiences with other people from around the world. You can earn rememory dollars just by entering competitions or just reviewing other people’s entries.

Music

Listening to music can elevate your emotions and at times can put you in a good mood. A good piece of music make you escape from the hassle of life and create a better emotional mood. Listening to music can only take few minutes or more but depends on you. You can listen the entire night if you wanted to. No one can bother you about the loudness of the music because you can listen to it from the comfort of your home computer. The website I will give you are two links that lets you listen to music for free.

Sky.fm - This radio station is for everyone from Trance, New Age, Salsa, and to all sorts of music you can listen to. It’s free and also they offer an upgrade to premium.

Danceage.com– Again a free music site that has many music artists to choose from and you can listen to any genre of music you want.

Draw/sketch

One cannot know what their talent is or their God given gift is unless they try something that they never attempted before. To fail is okay because it makes you improve on your weak points. Drawing or sketching is a fun way to express one’s creativity. It lets you preoccupy your mind in productive ways and if you get serious you can make money off of it. Drawing and sketching can be done whichever day you want or for how long. There are sites that gives free training to learn to draw it could be from cartoons, faces, landscapes or whatever. The links to drawing lessons and drawing community are below.

Lately I am dealing with pure boredum. the only thing I can do is do something to pass the time away. like listening to music, working around the house, doing something constructive,
and browse through the malls and libraries in Southwest Ontario
near London.

Thank-you.

Here are some good things to do if you are bored:
At Home: Clean a closet, categorize all your wardrobe items,
make charts of which tops and jackets coordinate with
your skirts and pants, write a letter to an elderly
person, go to each room of your house and write down
why you value that room (in the process you may end up
changing uses of the rooms and have fun decorating them
differently), think about your older relatives and
how you might brighten their day, make some giftwrap
by stamping pretty papers, collect items you could
regift because they are not suited to you for some reason,
place these items in a special spot and remember to
use them when you need to give a gift - they could be part
of a gift, or they could just be a giveaway item to someone
who needs it more than you, make a list of the people
you value and why, analyze your life by looking at the
area of mental progress, self-improvement, social
activities, meaningful relationships, spiritual fulfill-
ment, physical needs, and financial goals/habits.
Outside the Home: visit a home for the elderly and talk to at least three people - many do not get visits and love to talk with anyone who will take the time - show them some pictures, bring them a newspaper or read to them for a little while, play frisbee in the park, take a lunch to a totally different spot than you usually go and enjoy the view, take a city tour bus and learn about your city in a whole new way, take a course at a local community hall or with your city recreation centres, volunteer to do jobs often advertised in that section of your local newspapers, check out speeches and lectures which are being held for free in colleges or campuses.
Hope all of these help.
