			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been wanting to hold a contest for my readers for awhile, but couldn&#8217;t think of a good way to go about it, but my mind has been made up for me. On behalf of <a href="http://hrblock.com">H&#038;R Block</a>, I received two copies of H&#038;R Block&#8217;s TaxCut Premium software for a giveaway, and so the contest begins. That College Kid is a student productivity website and so it&#8217;s only natural to have the contest center around that instead of creating backlinks or other such nonsense.</p>
<h3>How to enter</h3>
<p>Submit tips, tricks or advice via the comments. Subject should be directed towards students, productivity, school, etc., basically anything that would help students out.</p>
<h3>Guidelines</h3>
<p>1. You can submit as many as you like.<br />
2. Enter correct detail information (especially email address) as that is how I will be contacting you.<br />
3. I will choose ten of the best submissions and hold a poll to find the winners.<br />
<strong>4. Submissions must be in by February 15.</strong></p>
<h3>Prizes</h3>
<p><img src="http://thatcollegekid.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/hrblocktaxcutsoftware.thumbnail.jpg" alt="H&#038;R Block’s TaxCut Premium Software" align="right" hspace="4" vspace="4" /><strong>1st place</strong><br />
There will be one first place winner who will receive a free copy of <a href="http://www.hrblock.com/">H&#038;R Block&#8217;s TaxCut Premium software</a> and $20 via paypal. The winner will also receive a mystery package designed just for students.</p>
<p><strong>2nd place</strong><br />
The second place winner will receive a free copy of <a href="http://www.hrblock.com/">H&#038;R Block&#8217;s TaxCut Premium software</a> and a link.</p>
<p><strong>3rd place</strong><br />
The third place winner will receive a link.</p>
<h2>Contest has ended!</h2>
<p>There weren&#8217;t as many submissions as I would have liked, and because of that, I&#8217;m not going to hold a poll. I&#8217;ve chosen the winners. If you&#8217;re one of the top three, you should have received an email. I want to thank everyone who entered. <img src='http://thatcollegekid.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>1. <strong>Chuck</strong> &#8211; If you are procrastinator, always pull your all nighter at least a day before the test. It sounds strange, but by doing this, you will be much better rested the day of the test and if you pull one the day before, none of the anxiety can build up, causing you a restless night. Also, since you just pulled an all-nighter, physically you will need sleep and not be tempted to stay up all night.</p>
<p>2. <strong>ES</strong> &#8211; Ever e-mailed your professor? Well, if you have, you’d realize that writing an e-mail to a prof is probably more difficult than a term paper. Why? Because your guard is down. You know you have to be formal in a term paper but when it comes to writing an e-mail, we often take the same attitude when writing to our friends. Big mistake! When you speak to your professor, at least he or she can tell your sincerity through your body language but when you send it through such a faceless medium, all he or she can gauge you by are the words you write and more importantly, how you write them. So always maintain formality in such e-mails, be courteous and use proper sentences and grammar. That e-mail could just be your ticket to an A (or an F).</p>
<p>3. <strong>Campus Grotto</strong> &#8211; Before selecting your major, consider taking a few related classes or even doing an early internship to make sure it’s actually something you want to do.</p><img src="http://thatcollegekid.com/?ak_action=api_record_view&id=124&type=feed" alt="" />]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I know I have readers, at the moment there are 75 people with my feed in their reader. <strong>I want to know what you, as a reader, want to see more of on this site.</strong></p>
<p>More posts related to money? Financial aid/student loans? Entertainment?</p>
<p>What do you like best? What do you want me to stop posting about? How do you feel about <a href="http://www.frugallawstudent.com/2007/09/22/links-for-2007-09-22/">weekend links</a> posts?</p>
<p>I created this blog to entertain myself, but it&#8217;s turned into a blog with a pretty good following and I want to keep my readers happy. I have some current ideas and I&#8217;d appreciate some feedback on them, as well as anything else you want to say.</p>
<h3>To Do List</h3>
<ul>
<li>Upgrade Wordpress</li>
<li>Change the nofollow plugin to <a href="http://www.allpassionmarketing.com/software.html">Link Love plugin</a></li>
<li>Add more plugins, such as <a href="http://www.onlinetools.org/tools/domtabdata/">DomTab</a> for recent comments/top commentators/something else</li>
<li>Add MyBlogLog readers widget</li>
</ul>
<p>I was also toying with the idea of changing the layout. I get bored so very easily with my layouts and always want to change them, but I was thinking for this site, I&#8217;d just change the sidebar area around a little.</p>
<p>Please, readers and new visitors, would you please give me some feedback. Thanks.</p><img src="http://thatcollegekid.com/?ak_action=api_record_view&id=78&type=feed" alt="" />]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m sure no one will read this post. It&#8217;s not an interesting one anyway. This is just the lovely first post of a brand new website. I decided that since I&#8217;m starting a new phase of my real life, my internet life should follow suit. I&#8217;m upgrading from a blog I had throughout high school to one I shall have throughout college.</p>
<p>This is a fresh install of <a href="http://wordpress.org">Wordpress</a> on a brand new domain I purchased through <a href="http://e-starr.com">E-Starr</a> (also where I am hosted). You can find more about this website on different pages and learn more about me through posts, etc. Enjoy.</p><img src="http://thatcollegekid.com/?ak_action=api_record_view&id=5&type=feed" alt="" />]]></content:encoded>
