Yuppie Journals: Updates at last!

Yuppie Journals: Updates at last!Well, as much as I’d like to say that the reason for us not being able to update earlier was because we’ve been terribly busy, I’d have to admit that I was being lazy. An incredible indolence had possessed me and as of this writing, it’s still clinging persistently onto my back. I haven’t been half as productive as I was during the first week and if you’ve ever tried risking anything in your life before, you’d know the feeling I’m about to describe. It’s the uneasy sloshing in the stomach that you can’t throw up, the solidifying trepidation in your bones you can’t shake off that comes only when you first glimpse Failure rearing its ugly head in the horizon before you.

Internet Marketing Basics That You Should Know

Internet Marketing 101So far, I’ve given a brief introduction of what internet marketing is so feel free to check out what I’ve talked about before. This time, I’ll be giving you some basic pointers that will help you on your journey towards earning income online through internet marketing.

How I Discovered Internet Marketing

Internet Marketing 101 - YuppieUniverse.comI’ve been constantly searching for a way to earn money online since I discovered the Internet. At first, I was logging on to the Internet for school research. Somehow, I stumbled upon information that tells me I can work online. The offer was tempting, all I have to do is to pay a certain fee and then start doing simple typing assignments. I will get paid in dollars and that time, the dollar exchange rate was starting to sky rocket. The best thing is that I get to set my own schedule and I can work full time at home. It’s everyone’s dream to be able to stay at home and work, you don’t have to worry about traffic or getting up early anymore. So I got hooked to the offer, I signed up and logged in to the site.

Yuppie Journals: Days Two, Three, Four, and Five

Yuppie Journals: Days Two, Three, Four, and Five

We’re back and as you may have guessed (If you need a recap, click here), I was buried in work by Tuesday and didn’t manage to update until today. I grossly miscalculated on my ability to be an article factory like the old days; I didn’t put into consideration what might happen during my transition from being a total lazy ass to an industrious chinchilla. Imagine it: somebody who’s been lying around the house for a year suddenly gets taken to a labor concentration camp. Wait, that’s a bad image.

Yuppie Journals: Day One

Crazy Turtle DayWhew. Day One of World Domination has come to a close – yep, at 2AM. Entirely my fault actually, since my crazy insomnia prevented me from sleeping last night, then I finally lost consciousness at around 11AM and rose from the dead at 6PM. I have insane sleeping habits, what can I say? We did agree on work hours (I picked 10AM-6PM while the Overlord decided on 1PM-sawa), but seeing as I technically slept through my entire work day, I had to make up for the hours lost and so here we are.

Yuppie Dinner: Stir Fried Chicken In Oyster Sauce

Posted by Nancy

Stir frying is not as hard as you think.

Buy the required ingredients, cut them up into small pieces, marinate the meat, stir fry it, remove it from the wok, stir fry the vegetables then combine together. That’s how simple it is.

I was tired of eating the same dishes over and over again. That is the main reason why I tried stir frying for a change. Here’s how it turned out…

Yuppie Breakfast – Basic Homemade Pancakes

Posted by Nancy S.

Have you always been eating those pancake mixes that you can buy in grocery stores? If you have never made your own pancakes from scratch, you’re missing a lot in your life. Homemade pancakes are a lot tastier and fluffier compared to those mixes or those you eat in fast food chains.

I remember making these fluffy pancakes for the first time. It was the best pancakes that I have ever tasted. I guarantee that you won’t ever go back to buying those hotcake mixes anymore after you’ve made your own. Here’s the basic pancake recipe that is both easy to do and will result to fluffy and tasty pancakes.
