Invalid Activity
I was surprised to receive an email from Google telling me that my Adsense account has been disabled. I was saddened by it considering that I'm expecting something from them anytime soon.
I made an appeal. Their appeal form had questions such as: Would visitors to our site have any reason to increase our Adsense earning? Any relevant information that you believe may explain the invalid click activity we detected?
It was hard answering those questions. The site that has the most visitors is www.lawschoolfunk.com and it is a compilation of my law school notes, case digests, and links to Philippine jurisprudence. The visitors are mostly students who are mostly referred to by search engines when they do their research for law school. I don't see why any of these students would purposely commit invalid activities to prejudice me. I don't see why they would do such thing when I'm giving them easier access to the information they need. But I don't suspect any of them to be the culprit.
It might have been wrong for me to write about my expected cheque in my last post here in my personal blog. I remember Kevin Paquet, after the MB Summit in Cagayan, when his account was also suspended because of invalid clicks. Kevin has mentioned his earnings during that summit and it might have caused those insecure people to do something to suspend Kevin's account. I can only say one thing: Wala'y tambal sa insecure.
I feel sad and hurt. I've been maintaining my blogs since 2005 and this is the first time that this has happened to me. I am not really earning very big from blogging but the passive income I generate from it somehow helps. I don't mind if I wait for 2 years just to reach a hundred dollars, what's important for me is that somehow I have shared to my fellow bloggers that they can use their internet time to earn decently and that they can use their potentials in a good way.
I was here to inspire. But now, I'm really hurt.

To rant or not to rant...
That is the question...
I guess the answer is pretty obvious. I'm writing now.. And just filling this space with letters then words then sentences then paragraphs. I'm in this internet cafe across the dorm and waiting for my reviewer to be printed. I made a stupid mistake of choosing 8.5x13 paper size, thinking that it would cost less... Stupid! Long bond costs P2.00 per page and I didn't notice it until 125 pages have already been printed. There goes my plan of having my reviewer bound... Hmpf!
In my attempt to save precious pesos, I chose the short bond size for the part two. Hmpf! Now I have two uneven sizes for one reviewer. No, I won't have it bound anymore... Loose reviewer, just like my civil reviewer... Wait, I haven't even read my civil reviewer yet... Anyway, I guess I have to make a schedule soon.. And I mean SOOOON.
Last Wednesday, one of the temples of my eyeglasses got broken. Hmpf!!! Another problem to solve. It's actually the second time that it happened. When I was still in Davao, those temples are pretty hard to find! I had to buy a new pair of eyeglasses frame just to substitute its temples for my pair.. And now that I'm in Manila, how am I supposed to find a substitute now? This is Manila so I suppose there are more stocks in here. But this is Manila so I suppose the prices are higher here. I just hope that I would not need to buy an entirely new pair of eyeglasses, I am so broke!!!!
Speaking of broke... I just love Google Adsense! Another new check is already in process and I just hope that it reaches me before I spend my last centavo. Hahahaha! I'm not entirely broke, after all. Google's timing is the best! Hahahaha!
My reveiwers are done so I better go now.. Got a lot of reading to do...

I'm missing home
I want to go home, badly want to go home.
I hate this place.
I wish I'm home....
