Ugh rant time...

Potential employers of English-as-second-language (ESL) teachers...

When you ask us to come work for you on a tourist visa, because you can't be ****ed to go through helping to get an employment visa sorted so we can do things legally, you are basically asking us to risk our future being able to travel for work and therefore our careers.

Food for thought

Well, looks like I'm not going to Brazil, maybe something better will come up

Thanks Reece :) Maybe it's for the best we'll see, I'm probably going to get straight back on it looking for other positions anyway. I'm dead set on travelling

yaaass *hugs*

It's a learning experience, next time I'll be more up front asking what the deal with the visa is before accepting the job. I got all my paperwork together too trying to apply for this one, so it hasn't been a complete waste of time.

I should go ahead and wrap up Kingdoms of Amalur at some point...

*doesn't want to*

Edit: Also treated myself to a take home Charcoal mask this morning after work. My face burned with the intensity of a 1000 suns and my face was read for an hour afterwards.

Guess I had a lot of blackheads that needed to be exterminated.

Someone requests that I tag my political posts on Tumblr because they go to Tumblr to escape that.

I'm like "is it easier for you to just unfollow me? Because I'm lazy and I can't be arsed if the process takes too much effort."

Like, why follow me on Tumblr anyways? It's not like I post anything good or important like art anymore. Even when I did, no one really looked at it.

Edit: Oh, it was easy. Okay then. Still, no point in following me on Tumblr these days. Or Deviantart.

Edit2: Oh boy, really downpouring outside. In a windowless room and I can hear it loud and clear.

Edit3: Watching Mayday as I sketch.

Drew another tiger... I think I'm getting better at the symmetry of their faces... realizing their stripes aren't necessarily symmetrical takes a load of pressure off my shoulders.

What? FFS :sakichi:

Quite a few "schools" in China pull this too, they'll pull any random white person off any random website and get them to come on a tourist visa and then teach :XD They're cracking down hard as F on that now :XD

TBH I used my Hong Kong status to crack THAT nut (See, I'm a Hong Konger, I'm Chinese too, I have a right to work in China, etc etc :lol: )

I keep waffling back and forth on if I should go and teach in China, but then I remember... I hate children and I have social anxiety disorder, so I'd be useless.

You could teach adults, but the social anxiety will kill you, so I won't recommend TEFL to you personally

Geez they are dumb :XD

History is history, no one was calling for it, if it ain't broke, why fix it? :XD

Yeah, social anxiety and a general hatred of people tends to limit my options. It's why I prefer the overnight (0000-0800) shift at my job, because there's only three people in the building at a time, and I'm not having to socialize with ANY of them.

So, yeah, every time I think about participating in the program, I'm like 'but Chibi, you'll have to interact with people and do you really want to do that when there's a massive language and cultural barrier to deal with?'

Edit: Debating on upgrading my phone and selling my iPhone 6s Plus... the phone I'd want is only $7 per month, and I could use that money to start paying down this $1000 medical bill.

Or be foolish and buy that 128 gb iPod I really want. :rolleyes:
