1. My name is Kristin; and my nickname is Kayla 2. I am 25 going on 13.. LOL (I look and act much younger than I really am I mean.. haha) 3. I am unemployed, I'm a singer and recent college graduate (December), and when I can I'm going to be recording another album, and possibly going back to technical school or something dealing with a career in the medical field, so I have a backup plan. 4. I'm here at mylot for several reasons, I joined to earn a little money each month, but I have really enjoyed meeting people and being able to have great discussions, and share my opinons without being attacked for my beliefs, everyone here is so open and accepting of different ideas and opinions, and that is hard to find in life! 5. I don't really have a lot of dislikes here at mylot, sometimes it will get a little stressful and overwhelming, but for the most part I love it! I like it because, well, there are many social networking sites online, and there are many message boards, but this site puts those together and on top of it all, gives us a little something for our thoughts, and I think that is so cool in itself! 6. I tend to respond to a lot of different categories, because I like to try to respond to friends and all. But I think a lot of time I end up answering in mylot.com, life, internet, Q&A, music, health, psychology, etc.. 7. I guess my message to fellow mylotters is, you guys are so amazing, you really make it enjoyable to be here, and I think we help each other in so many ways--be it answering questions, giving advice, helping each other in their earnings--because even though that isn't the most valuable part--we do end up helping each other by responding to their posts, and we do better when people start excellent discussions. So overall, I would want to say how much I appreciate every aspect of this site and it's members.

1. My name is Brittany, but please call me Val, Valen, or Valenas. I dislike my real name. Most of my friends even call me Val. 2. I am seventeen, eighteen tomorrow. 3. I work in a veterinarian clinic. I work in the Kennels area, cleaning runs, giving (certain) meds, walking, feeding, watering, holding animals while treatments are being given. 4. I am here just to make friends. I like being able to give advice when it is needed, and otherwise just put my two cents in on any topic. I love how, for the most part, people are open to most ideas as long as someone else has a valid argument. And if not, at least they accept others for who they are. 5. I do not like how I cannot edit responses after they are made. Sometimes, I do not notice a mistake even in editing. It is hard to notice a mistake on something if the information is still fresh in your mind. Spell check only goes so far, it does not correct my bad grammar. 6. I love Questions and Answers, Dogs, and Pets. I find myself responding a lot in the parenting section, even though I am not a parent myself. I am actually very flexible on where I respond here. I will respond to just about anything as long as I have something to say to it. 7. Thank you for being so welcoming to me when I first came here, and so warm-hearted as I continue to be a part of this community. It is great getting to know everyone and to see how diverse the members of myLot are.

Hello Val! I can relate with no.5 hehe. I dislike that so much too. Anyway, it's nice to be flexible here and to share your thoughts sincerely on interesting topics. I can see you're good at that. Thanks for sharing and ohh... Happy Birthday Val! Wish you all the best!

Thank you so much my dear selece. I consider you a dear friend of mine and do enjoy our chats. 1. Cheryl, 2. 51, 3 & 4 I am here for pretty much the same reasons you are, except I don't go to university anymore and I don't work :(, I'm disabled now, 5. I just love trying to help people with their problem and replying to post, meeting new friends while being about to keep the ones I have, 6. I respond to many things. If I think I have something that may help someone I will try, discussions that interest me, family, animals, likes, dislikes, oh honey just about anything in general as long as it isn't to contriversial. I respond to more post than I start by a huge difference.

well selece, the doctor says I won't get any better, just worse. Although I am one to be optimistic. I think with Gods grace and the doctors I can at least be alright and not get worse. This is why I don't travel anymore with my husband. I use to when I was able to. The doctors think they know everything, but sometimes they don't. I have been in a quandry for several years now. My health got worse. Like my husband, I use to be a workaholic and it drives me crazy sometimes because I can no longer work. At first I did travel to be with him for months at a time. I just got worse and unable to go. I have a really good doctor at the pain managment place and he gets me in to see a top notch physical therapist. I think I'm doing a little better.

Hello Cheryl! I enjoy our chats too! Umm... I didn't know that you were disabled or perhaps I missed that part... So how is it? Is there anything that could be done to recover from it? I hope you're actually doing well. You're a great person, Cheryl, thanks for everything. I hope that more blessings would come to you! Thank you! Take care, my friend!

1. Revella 2. 26 years old, 27 in September (Yikes!) 3. I am a stay at home mother of 2 baby girls, also first year back to school 4. I just ran into MyLot surfing and it stuck with me because its just what I would want in a forum 5. I do not like not being able to delete conversations I have posted, I like being able to bring up whatever is on my mind and getting opinions of others in other countries! 6. I usually respond to current events or issues relevant to my family life not silly questions like do you use pen or pencil (oh, I only use pen :)

It depends in your account like my account i can say that it is a tough job.sometimes i really wonder if we are really compensated fairlyBecause of the stress,tension,depression that we are getting from the job.And most specially away from the family at night and in the morning they can't talk to you sometimes because that's your time to sleep.But aside from the negative things that you're getting from the job there are also positive side like the money ,the outing the people and the pleasure sometimws of taking calls of clients that so thankful if you help them.

1.) Real name: Carole 2.) Age: 56 (Had to stop and figure that one out. I rarely think about my age.) 3.) Occupation: person-of-all-trades (i.e. office manager) currently in transition (i.e. looking for another job) 4.) Why am I on myLot: A friend introduced me to MyLot as she though I might enjoy it. She was right. 5.) Likes and dislikes: I like the variety of discussions here. If I want serious, I can find that. If I want fun, light-hearted, that's here as well. If I'm looking for some information (as in ... how to get rid of ants), I can find it on myLot. And then there are the discussions that bring up long forgotten memories. Those are good to run across. 6.) Interest topics: I usually forget to look in the interest topics. I find get caught by someone's avatar or their response on a discussion and I go to their discussions. Basically, I just jump around to whatever/whoever catches my attention. 7.) Message: What a great and diverse site we myLotters have helped to create!

1. My name is Liz. 2. I'm turning 21 in an hour or two here, so I'll just put that. 3. I'm a librarian and a receptionist, depending on what day you ask me. I'm also a student. 4. I honestly came here because I was curious about earning money. 5. I like how many places there are to post. However, I don't like that you can't really just subscribe to something (that I can see); you have to dig around in your email or in your profile to find a previous discussion. 6. I usually respond to the making money threads, the myLot ones, the relationship ones, and the student and video game ones whenever they pop up. Nice to meet you.
