Disappointed

I won't be going to Zafra. Kirsty has informed me that it does not make sense for her to hire me for only three months and after extensive research I have realized it will be impossible to stay without one...although sometimes I want to believe differently. Anyway, I still have not given up. I have a plane ticket and I am determined to do everything I can to get there. I have informed the agency that I would like to be readded to the list of au pairs and that I would like to shorten my stay. I really want to go to Spain, so I have applied for a few short stay jobs. I can not go back to the consulate so soon with a change of plans, so I have resigned to go for three months if that is all I am allowed. I have also applied for one job in Mexico (another Spanish speaking country) and a few in other places. I would like to be able to learn Spanish, but I also really just want the experience.

Hopefully I will hear back from the agency soon. Probably sometime after all the holiday fuss. I'm super disappointed...but I guess these things happen. I feel a little silly for telling everyone, it just seemed so sure. I'll let you know what happens.
