The Odious Job Hunt

It´s been awhile, hasn´t it? Well, in the past 2 weeks Ecuador has managed to lose it´s first 2 national soccer games against Venezuela and Brazil. Not so cool. But I did enjoy going to the stadium and people-watching. We were in the cheap seats so there were all kinds of people there, and our section was more rowdy and where a lot of the chants and singing started. For example, towards the end of the game it appeared that Ecuador had scored, but in reality it was an optical illusion or something. Someone in the stands was really displeased with this realization because after they figured out what had happened, they threw all their peanuts up into the air. Needless to say the fans around this particular person were less than thrilled about this, but we were safely laughing from our seats a few rows above.

I finished polishing up my resume in Spanish and have begun to send it out and begin the job hunt. Apparently it´s super hard to find a job here, especially jobs that pay decently at all, so I´m a bit nervous about whether I´ll be able to find something. But hopefully that old adage is true: where there´s a will, there´s a way.

I think the full expression is, "Where there's a will, there's a way to avoid probate." ;-)
