so i've emailed my resume to maybe 7 english schools in rio (no response yet). i get the impression i'm going to just have to show UP in person. at least i have one interview set up, with a british-owned school. love those efficient brits. i've started studying for the GREs, despite the fact I am taking them a week from today, but given my time constraints I'm not sure i'll ever be able to pour any more time than this into it. and i cant relearn math in a week so whatever. between me and eliseu, we have found two great apartments, one in copa, the other in botafogo. i haven't seen pictures of the one in bota but he insists its better, despite having some slight furniture issues. but hopefully we'll work everything out soon so i have a place to stay when i get there (and space for all my stuff). today i'm off to the dentist and i have two immunizations next week. i'm tutoring richie so extra cash= shopping! soon. here's another picture from the DR for good measure, since I wish I was still there.

Rachel,
Do you mind if I give you a tip?
Dress up as if you were going to an interview, but a little more casual (just a little) and take your resume personally to the places you'd like to work. Just present yourself and that you'd like to leave your resume, because it seems to be a nice school, bla, bla, bla.
It always worked perfectly for me (and I'm a registered nurse!). ;)
Good luck!
