Met the quota

Peoria, Arizona

I like to have a quota I work to on Mturk, just so I can have a goal and do not get distracted and try to do so many things at once. Lately I have not been getting to that because, well, I don't know why. But I wasn't and I didn't like that. I like to get to around 50 hits and I made it to 54 and my brain is very sleepy. Normally when I am done with Mturk, I like to draw, but I don't think that is going to happen tonight because my brain is just like, what is life? What is existence? Actually, it isn't even that deep of thinking. It is more like, Can I just play video games? Yes, brain. Yes you can. So, I will take the rest of the evening to play The Sims 3 and if I wake up a little bit, I will get to drawing, but I doubt that will happen. So perhaps I will just save drawing for the weekend.

Haha I only do that when I know I have done enough work to not make me have an anxiety attack feeling like I have gotten nothing accomplished.

I do crowdflower task when I have the time. Unfortunately Mturk isn't available in our part of the world.

@DesirousDreamer _Not much to choose from if you're in Asia unlike if you're a US resident.

I experience the same thing whenever I write with Bitlanders after office hours. But since that is the only time I have, I would just walk a little or drink some coffee and I would resume my writing. I think Mturk is not available in our place.

I like to take a break every hour, get up or just stretch to keep the blood flowing. I don't want any blood clots

Mturk is not available in this part of the world. I think it is mainly for US citizens.

Okay? Haha there are other crowdsourcing sites that are. I have just been using this one since I was 18.

I haven't been able to get any task from this. I think I created an account 3 years ago.

I created it when I was 18, and only started taking it seriously last year

If you ever need inspiration for which HITs to do, I find that HITsWorthTurkingFor on Reddit is pretty awesome. They tend to list the relatively higher-paying HITs for the time you invest in completing them. Lots of simple things like academic surveys.

That is pretty cool. I do a lot of the academic surveys
