Martes agosto 9

I have discovered the power of being proactive about ones happiness. I have decided that thing haven't been going quite how I wanted them to go here so I need to change some key parts of my daily existance to change my frame of mind. I already feel good about my change of apartment and now I am begining to explore the other job opportunities here that may better fit me. I am focusing mainly on au pair jobs and have had one interview with a family yesterday. Here I would like to make note of the apartment I went to for my interview. It was clean crisp and all windows had one of the most absolutly beautiful view of the city and its magical roof tops. We will see if I get the job but I still feel a sense of power because I can activly change my life and I don't feel stuck.

I am also enrolling in a language school here and will soon begin an intensive course which is much needed in my Spanish skills. Can I tell you a little about the system here... To enroll in this class I had to first go and wait in a long line in the cold for a while and then they gave me a number and told me to come back the next day. I then came back the following day with my number to wait some more until they called us to talk a test to see our level. After we turned in the test they gave us a new piece of paper and told us to come back the following Thursday. I then went back the following Thursday with my piece of paper hoping his would be the moment they would write down my name somewhere so I would feel legit but no. Instead they looked at the test and wrote a new date a time for me to go back to the school for who knows what. I still don't know when the class is or if I am actually enrolled yet. The funny part is that I have talked to a few people from here and to them this sounds completely normal. It drives me a little crazy but at least I'm trying jajaja!
