Work/Life

April 27, 1987: My English classes are not bringing enough money. Teaching at a private school is out of the question for two reasons: I would not be getting a larger salary and my Tia would be left alone a lot of the time. I can't afford for her to feel with no one to talk to, no one to turn to in case she starts to feel sick. What to do? I don't want to ask my mother for money. It is not safe here in Argentina and besides, I want to make it on my own. Writing a best seller would be great! I often fantasize about that. Then I could buy her a house, even our old rented house and she'd get to enjoy life a little bit. My Tia deserves that. And more.
