Screaming in the Plex

I hate the way nights begin at 4pm in England... I miss the sun sets in Brazil, the way I could just sit outside and feel like time wasn`t passing at all. Here, I feel like I wake up and have only a few hours of sun before it`s dark again....

The job thing is very annoying... I guess I should spend more time looking but...

Kevin was supposed to get a phone call from the Stoke Newington Bookstore... they never called. And Erika, my housemate, has joined us in Unemployment World. She`s connected so I don`t see her having a problem getting something else...

Meire and Juliano, how are you doing? I have a magazine at home with loads of teaching jobs. They pay quite well over here. Check out their web site:

Also found out that my housemates were planning on making a run for it while Kevin and I were gone. Our bitch Landlady (we call her Pure Evil) was not cashing our rent (for very long reasons) so everyone made plans to abandom the house! I was pissed off when I heard this because I don`t think anyone would have taken my stuff with them!!! Things are good now but I suspect Pure Evil is planning something new against us (she claims we threw away some "antique" furniture of hers - if you find a house trashed to its core, with crappy furniture falling apart, wouldn`t you throw it away?)

Sending you my love and logging off...

Hei Olliver, you are not the only one without a job ...

Hi Olliver !!
I don't know why you complain so much about the weather in Britain. I really think it is much better to live in a coller country. Everywhere you go here is so hot...
Well, I still think I don't have a job yet. No groups, no classes, no student, NO SALARY ... I wish I could leave everything here and travel to a different place. I'll be travelling to Caiobá (beach) this Friday. I'll spend the Carnaval with my friends from university and school. I'll bring you a shell !!
Ok, don't think I have any news ...see you soon,
Juliano

...WHICH IS BETTER THAN HAVING THE CRAPPIEST JOB EVER???

Hey, dudes!!!
Being unemployed sucks...being employed at that horrible school sucks even harder!!!!
In the afternoon I got really mad..I don't really give a shit if I shouted at MrBald. He's just incapable of saying a nice hello to you before saying nasty things!!!
Jules knows the story but you don't,Oliver!
Mr Bald shouted at me because I transfered a student to another group before telling him in advance! I just got absolutely mad because those people at the office don't know anything about that f***ing timetable...and am I the one to blame??? Mr Bald could ask me what was happening before accusing me of doing the wrong (???) thing!!!!
I remember i talked to the girl's father and sat with him and the secretary to find a group for his daughter and we didn't find anything!!! I bet they had just forgotten to include the group she was supposed to be in in the timetable!!!!
And then, to make things even worse, Miss Carmessita was too impolite,shouting at everyone!! I had to tell her at the end of the afternoon that I fully understood that she had to deal with a lot of problems...but it was not fair of her to treat everyone badly just because she had problems to solve. I told her I felt like punching her face ...she just smiled and said she was sorry.


I'm way tooooooooo tired!!!
Thank God Carnaval is coming and we'll have a break.
So, Ollie, you might be unemployed and stuff...but you are not working for those horrible people!!!
