			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to college.  You&#8217;ll be here for four years, and when you aren&#8217;t in class you&#8217;ll have a lot of free time.  Food, beverages and video games cost money, though &#8211; how will you pay for them?  The answer is, of course, a job.</p>
<p>There are the typical college student jobs &#8211; working the residence hall office, working in the library, working checkout at a grocery store, delivering pizzas, etc.  The problem with these tried and true jobs?  They take up your time.  And when you&#8217;re in college, time is of the essence.  You need a social life, and working nights and weekends will not cut it.  After all, these are the best years of your life.  This is where a dorm room business comes into play.</p>
<p>If you have a favorite hobby or something you are really good at, why not go into business?  Create your own hours, charge your own prices and be your own boss.  Need customers?  You have, quite possibly, 10,000+ students walking your campus daily.  And if you get involved in something related to your major, it can only help you in your job hunt after graduation &#8211; that is, if you need a job by then.  Who knows, maybe your dorm room business will have flourished into an extremely profitable company!  You could join the likes of Bill Gates, Michael Dell, Sergey Brin and Larry Page as successful college entrepreneurs.</p>
<p>Take some money from savings, ask your parents for money or take a small part-time (10 hours/week max) job to get some start-up capital.  Once your business becomes self sustaining, quit the part-time job and expand your work into those hours if you want.  You can quickly pay back any money you borrowed and start taking a salary out of your profits.  Remember, though, to put some money away in the name of your business &#8211; if you are building computers, for example, you might lose a tool and have to buy a new one.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For those who point to this generation as a selfish one, you might want to reconsider.  According to an Associated Press article, more and more college graduates are doing volunteer work as well as seeking employment from non-profits groups.  The article also states that more college freshman are entering the college community with service experience.  I am involved with a service organization on campus and am happy to see these numbers rise.  No matter if you are a freshman or a senior &#8211; getting involved with a  service group is a great way to meet people and help the community at the same time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A fast reminder to anyone with a roommate &#8211; set up times where one of you can conveniently be out of the room for the other&#8217;s sake.  These are incredibly helpful when significant others are involved.  If an impromptu meeting takes place between you and your girlfriend/boyfriend, work out some kind of &#8220;do not enter&#8221; symbol with each other; perhaps, the traditional sock on the door?  This lets your roommate know not to walk in as the crotchless panty is being flung through the air.  You&#8217;ll both be much better off when these potentially awkward situations are avoided in advance.  Sharing a room is tough &#8211; why not make some things easy?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s a pretty widely accepted fact that most college dorm rooms are tiny.  You are often sharing that space with another person, which makes things even more cramped.  You can get as many shelves and push as much under your bed as you want, but there are some items that can&#8217;t be hidden; for example, your TV.  Why not mount your TV to the wall and release some of that space?</p>
<p>The folks over at AVNow may have just what you&#8217;re looking for.  Browsing the site, you&#8217;ll find plasma mounts and tv brackets for most television sizes and most manufacturers.  Browsing by size (since the site didn&#8217;t list my brand model of Sanyo) I was able to find the correct bracket for my 19&#8243; widescreen HDTV.  If you aren&#8217;t interested in mounting your TV to the wall but would like it on a stand, the site carries many lcd stands as well.</p>
<p>Wall mounting is a great strategy to reclaim some of that space in your dorm.  Why not make that small space feel more livable?  Head over to AVNow and find a wall mount for your TV!  Not only will you have more room for more stuff, your room will look much cooler as well.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Something that a lot of high school students don&#8217;t seem to worry much about are <a href="http://www.admissionsessays.com/college.html">college admission essays</a>.  There is a whole lot of stress over the SAT&#8217;s or AP exams, but admission essays are often overlooked.  The truth is this; your essay could very well make or break your admission into the college of your choice, so it should be taken seriously!  Fortunately, there are professional services out there that will help you put together an outstanding essay.</p>
<p>Admissions Essays is one of those services.  They can aid you in two different ways; by either creating an original essay for you from scratch, or by offering critiquing services for an already-completed essay.  The prices for each service seem to be very fair, and there are discounts if you are ordering multiple essays or critiques (maybe you could combine the cost with some friends?).  Admissions Essays has a 3-7 day turnaround on their services, which is lightning fast work.</p>
<p>This time of year is college application time.  Keep in mind that, while your grades and test scores may be fantastic, a lot of other students will be putting up similar if not better numbers than you.  You really need something that helps you stand out from the pack, and a well-written college admission essay can make that happen.  Admissions Essays is located at www.admissionsessays.com, so go check them out today!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Please only contribute one article per edition of the carnival.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in">I know I wasn&#8217;t very clear with that rule early on, but I tried to make a note of it this time around on the submission page.  Enacting this rule actually benefits both of us – it makes the carnival look less spammy and more credible.  I know if it were me, I&#8217;d rather have someone plasma cutting my eyes out than see the same name a few times in a row submitting multiple posts.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in">If you got multiple submissions in this time, I&#8217;ll probably just use my discretion and choose the article I feel is most beneficial to the readers.  If you try it again next edition, I&#8217;ll just exclude you since I&#8217;ll know that a) you aren&#8217;t reading the rules and b) you obviously don&#8217;t even read this blog since you missed this post. <img src='http://www.beerpizzatech.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For most college students, nothing tops getting money for free.  Unfortunately, aside from cards in the mail or a few pennies on the ground, finding free money is difficult.  Or is it?  I&#8217;ll clue you in on a few services I&#8217;ve come across that let you make some cash for doing pretty much nothing.  I&#8217;ll also point you in the direction of some paid blogging sites &#8211; if you blog anyway, why not get paid for it?</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Get paid to&#8230;</span></p>
<p>&#8220;Get paid to&#8221; programs pay you to do fairly simple things like watch ads, take surveys and register on web sites.  As far as surveys and site registrations go, there are two pretty popular sites for this.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cashcrate.com/336428">CashCrate</a> is one I&#8217;ve started using in the past few days.  I&#8217;m already up to $20.15, just from taking a few surveys and registering on some web sites (such as eBay).  <a href="http://www.cashcrate.com/336428">CashCrate</a> pays you via check, with their minimum payout set at $10.  Most surveys and sites I saw hovered between the $0.85-$1.00 range, so reaching $10 is not hard at all.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.treasuretrooper.com/318555">TreasureTrooper</a> is another one, though I don&#8217;t have much experience with it.  It looks to have many of the same offers as <a href="http://www.cashcrate.com/336428">CashCrate</a>, but with a site design that screams Indiana Jones.  From the reviews I&#8217;ve read online, the consensus is that it&#8217;s a good site.  If you try out <a href="http://www.treasuretrooper.com/318555">TreasureTrooper</a> and like it, let me know in the comments.</p>
<p>You can also make some (but not alot of) money looking at ads.  <a href="http://adbux.org/?r=sfarner">AdBux</a> forces you to visit a site for either 3, 10 or 30 seconds and pays you in relation to the time.  Three seconds nets you $0.0015 cents, ten gets you $0.005 and thirty gets you $0.01.  In my opinion, <a href="http://adbux.org/?r=sfarner">AdBux</a> isn&#8217;t really that worth it &#8211; working minimum wage at $7.25/hr, you would have made about $0.06 in a thirty second timespan.  If you don&#8217;t want a job and have time to watch ads every once in awhile, who knows, it might eventually add up.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Blog for bucks</span></p>
<p>Thanks to a few companies, you can now say you are paid to blog.  There is a snag to this, of course &#8211; you will be blogging about products, web sites, etc. and not choosing your own topics.  Still, the potential is there to earn some money doing something you love to do anyway &#8211; blog!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.blogsvertise.com/?rid=b5732">Blogsvertise</a> is one that I&#8217;m registered with.  They offer you assignments that usually sit around the $5 mark &#8211; all you do is type up your post, publish it and send them the link.  If they accept it, you just made some money!  Note that some of the categories in <a href="http://www.blogsvertise.com/?rid=b5732">Blogsvertise</a> are a bit slim in offers, so you might have to make your money out of what they call &#8220;the grab bag&#8221;.  These assignments are ones no one wanted or ones that expired.</p>
<p><a href="http://tinyurl.com/2735l8">PayPerPost</a> seems to be immensely popular with blog owners.  At my last check, there were  199 opportunities available on various topics, some paying over $200 a post.  There are a few requirements on <a href="http://tinyurl.com/2735l8">PayPerPost</a>, mainly that your blog is at least three months old and has a decent PageRank.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">And there you have it.</span></p>
<p>Using one or more of these sites, you can make a little money without getting an actual job.  Will you make as much?  Not unless you are extremely dedicated, but that kind of defeats the purpose, doesn&#8217;t it?  I am not an advocate of working while in college, at least not for &#8220;the man&#8221;.  Unless you have extremely convenient hours, all it will do is rob you of your social life.  So sign up for these sites or <a href="http://www.beerpizzatech.com/2007/09/start-dorm-room-business.html">start your own dorm room business</a>, and have fun in college!</p>
