Trying to get paid for this

I have spent the past week or so trying to get paid to write on here. The coolest place I have applied for was Q101. I tried Google Adsense but we weren't working out. Q101 hasn't responded yet, so I don't know what to do. I never realized that whoring yourself out on the internet could be this hard.

Chicago

I have lived in the same house my entire life. I have become so familiar with my surroundings and I am realizing know how connected I am with this city. One of the things I am going to miss is hoping on Metra and taking a trip to the city. I feel lately I have been doing that more than any other time in my past. I have memorized the train schedule, the streets, and even the names of buildings. To think that I am going to start fresh in a new town and not know anything is a little intimidating but I learn fast so I will master it in no time. Its going to be hard tho to try to explain to other people exactly what I remember about Chicago. Its a city everyone should experience for themselves. Chicago is home and I'm starting to realize everything I'm going to miss...

I will be in Germany from the end of August to the Middle of July, eleven months, and during that time I will keeping this blog so that I can keep you updated on the highs and lows and the other adventures along the way. My German Family will have 3 kids and no dog, and I am moving to the middle of no where but thankfully the Netherlands are just five minutes away. This will be a once in a lifetime opportunity. I can not wait for a change from my normal routine. Follow my blog and you may even learn a recipe or two along the way because I plan to eat my way threw Germany.
