Falci: I still haven't found a job. T_T
Instead of finding a job you could try to make money. I mean, if no one hired you would you just go homeless? Or become a monk? If you have any business sense you can avoid that. :)

I highly doubt my business sense, to be honest. Generally speaking, I tend to have a hard time trying stuff I'm not entirely sure how to do nor feel confident enough in my ability to do it practically blindfolded. It possibly has to do with my aversion to trying things over and over until getting them right. So, trying to find a proper job has something to do with being in a safer environment, I guess, where I can fail occasionally without catastrophic results or, at least have a team to rely on and work together better than alone. Though that tends to land me into long projects that end up becoming tedious for being repetitive or in the role of forever recreating the same stuff for slightly different purposes, which also becomes tedious and depressive eventually.

Anyway, I'm just rambling right now.

I do plan on learning some stuff to improve my ability to generate money by doing small projects on the side and maybe even my employability. Which means, in my case, learning more about HTML, CSS, Javascript and Angular (since they seem to be a few of the more frequent requirements from the job opportunities I missed so far). Then, I'll see what I can find on any of those freelance websites.

DaCostaBR: I just wanted to comment how it's such a brazilian thing to nickname a currency by the country's president. It's sort of new habit we picked up and I kind of love it, although I must say it was much more fun to call Reais "Dilmas" instead of "Temers".
That seems fun. What would you call the Euro?

How about you just write a book? Bake some cookies? Become a shirtless dancer on youtube? There are many opportunities beyond waiting for someone to hire you for your skills, looks, or talents. That's what I meant.

I don't know who would have more power between the Presidents of the European Comission, the European Council and the European Parliament. Depending on which one it is, Euros would then be called either "Junckers", "Tusks" or "Tajanis", respectively.

Though to be frank, we might just call them "Merkels" anyway because she's the only european politician most people would remember.

I've actually been trying that one for a while now. The story is coming along nicely, but I lack the discipline necessary for regular advancement. I'm even writing it in English, just because.

I have had a good recipe for cookies for years. A variety of girlfriends have made them for me, but I'm utterly awful at cooking. I just barely learned how to make a somewhat edible soup recently.

I'm that kind of horrible person who can't be shirtless in front of a camera. So no youtube dancing for me. T_T

I'd personally call it Merkels. But your mileage may vary. :P
