After hours of applying to jobs this past weekend, I've caught a couple of hooks.
I have an interview with a school S.Korea - Gumi is the city's name. I'm excited actually, I started looking at blogs about teaching English in Korea, and I'm excited. I love most Asian cultures, and I have a feeling I'll love this one too! Plus! I get to learn Korean!! OOOOOoooo Aaaahhhhh The downside is leaving everyone again after a year and half of being back from Africa...What can I say? I love to see the world....
I could have an interview a place in LOS ANGELAS!!! yeaaaa baby!!! I just emailed them this morning to ask about what the salary would be like... in a very coy, calm, cool, collective way..... basically in so many words here is a copy and paste!!:

Thank you for your prompt response! I'd love to come in for an opportunity to meet with you. The only day I have somewhat available is July 29th, please advise the time slots still available for that day. If not, next week would work as well, if not better.
I am terribly excited for this position however, I am curious to know the range in salary this position has been alloted. Since this chance has come along so suddenly, I'd have to forfet an upcoming interview, which I'm more than willing to do, if financially feasible. As I am sure you understand, I cannot compete for a position that i cannot afford.
I look forward to hearing from you!

What do you think? Pretty good right? lol I wrote it with two hours of sleep so... sue me! lol I just need to get an idea before charging $500 on cc to go to LA for the interview. Dude, its been my DREAM to go live in Cali!! If it's a descent pay... I totally would rock their socks off and walk in as if I already have the job...
It's Jewelry Company -- and oooh, what a coincidence, I'm currently working in a jewelry company!!!! I'm soooo hyped!! They want Bilingual... and what is that?! I'm Quad-lingual!! - sweeet!! They even said Multi-Cultured experienced -- Ummm... did you know I'm S.American, living in N.America, have lived in Europe and W.Africa!!! well why yes?! come on! This job was written with me in mind...HOWEVER, WHAT DO YOU PAY!??!? WHY DON'T YOU SAY IT?! WHAT IS THE BIG SECRET!!!!? ok... it's out of my system... damn, I just hate when they don't give AT LEAST a range!!
Austin has asked for interviews but eh, I don't know, I guess my heart isn't in it...
LA vs S.Korea in my mind to be honest... :p

LA!!!! OMG I would miss you so much if you went to S. Korea but it would also be awesome. But DUde if you moved to LA it would be like, incredible. And I would totally visit you.
I hate when they don't give salary ranges. Joe just had an interview yesterday and they asked him his salary requirements without giving any range of their own... Ughhh you don't want to sell yourself short but also we would def settle if we could make it work. It's bullshit.
