Adding to the Misconception on Blogging

September 10, 2007

Karlo: Oh, so you are new to blogging? Welcome!

Blogger: Thanks. Still trying things out. Hope I could get the hang of this.
Karlo: Hahaha. So, where did you hear of blogging?
Blogger: Aaa… sa Mel and Joey. I saw that I could easily earn money from blogging which is why I quickly signed up for one. Hehe. Sana kumita ako dito.
