What's everyone up to right now?

Glad you're back at it. Still doing the ESL course?

Thanks man! Haven't been as active on here lately with my job

And yes, I'm still working on it, although not as fast as I'd like since I've been focusing on making some money haha. I'm glad I have a few days off now to really push on with it and make good progress Smile

I've done about 40 of my 120 hours of the course, and got until December 11th to finish, so I'm not horribly behind.

Awesome!

Still planning on Sao Paulo? There's probably some hicks here in the south of 'Murrica that could stand to learn the Queen's English...

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Haven't written Sao (I know Poca, I know) Paulo or Brazil in general off yet, but it's one of many possible destinations. Also considering Italy, Spain, Portugal and Argentina. It's basically anywhere I can find work out of those, so it's a toss-up really.

There might be jobs in 'Murrica too and I'd definitely consider it, although maybe not in hick and tornado country :p haha, I'd go California or Arizona if I could

I forgot how to type it! I'm sorry Tongue

I find tornadoes scarier than earthquakes even though they probably kill less people, I'm weird. Also Los Angeles is just too dreamy-looking to not be worth the risk.

Yeah I'm oddly drawn to Arizona, I like the dry heat... it suits me.

LLooking at my fantasy football set up, mistakenly thinking that all happened today, not tomorrow.

At least I'm alert to it now. Must. Study.

That was on your bike, right? 11km on foot is quite a stretch!

Practicing with Yahoo!'s football draft system. Easier than I thought.
