Looking for a Job and Trying to Feel Good

The other day, I started desperately looking for a Spanish Tutor job, after posting every two days through the famously craigslist website. After constantly posting for two weeks in a row, I finally got a call from a man who wanted to be taught at the Library; of course I wasn’t going to teach him at his home unless he lived with his family, and that includes having kids and wife present at the tutoring session. I do this for my safety. But before that, I did not get any e-mail replies and not even interested people with some questions, except two scammers who wanted to pay me by money orders and one of them offered me $100 per hour. Ha ha! I was so disappointed that not even after posting my beautiful and almost professional resume (compared to the ones who did not have enough information at all), no one was interested and I was wondering that it might be because I was competing with other two companies who provide unlimited online tutoring for $100 a month. I needed to cheer myself, so I visited a blog and watched the video - the same one is below - in order to try to make me feel better. After watching it, I was thinking about an outfit to wear on Wednesday church, which could make me feel good after an unsatisfying day of trying people to hire me. When I finally made up my mind, I wore my favorite green jacket because the church gets cold inside for the air conditioner, and it was better than wearing my classical and comfy black sweater, which would probably not have been enough to give me a complete hundred percent warm.
