[216] Of a new semester

The first few weeks of the semester seem to be very good to me.

First of all, I’ve rejoined the Solar Car Team and applied into the leadership rank. Through this, I hope to join the 2005 race crew. The team will be racing in both the ASC, of which Michigan failed to qualify last July and the WSC 2005 in Australia.

Though I really want to join the crew and seriously want to commit my time to the team, I am currently having a problem with it. If my study schedule runs at its current steam, I’ll be graduating a semester earlier, seven months short of the ASC 2005. And so, currently I am trying to reduce my pace in any way possible.

Zooming back to present time, at hand, I am in the field hockey team and will be up against MSU in Lansing. Admittedly, its just a recreational team but I couldn’t remember when the last time a recreational sport team had gone this far.

This semester is going to be sweet.

Furthermore, The __earthinc has expanded its influence in the blogosphere. It has attracted a modest numbers of people and the visitors are no longer are limited to my circle of friends. This might be the result of me participating forums and newsgroups. The other factor is the search engine. The search words linked to The __eartinc usually could be categorized to the environment, politics, science and sports. Frequently this site has been ranked top ten in various search engines for various searches concerning soccer (especially about Ajax and Holland), economics and the environment. And the best thing is, the search word Eugen Slutsky, the economist that derived the demand equation in The Law of Demand, ranked The __earthinc No. 13 out of 179 on Google and 13 out of 119 at Yahoo!.

The average number of visitor has also risen. Right now, for the past four months, the average have been over 200 people, with average unique visitors (a number of visitors with unique internet protocol addresses per month) may well made up about half of that figure.

I guess, after almost 2 years online, this site is going strong after all. After almost 2 years, my life is heading uphill after a bad fall.

To those of who have helped making is site relatively successful compared to other small sites, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
