I'm back.

Doing... not too good. I dropped out of the university and effectively stuck in a limbo of sorts. I have very little money left - enough to buy me another week's worth of scarce food and not nearly enough to pay the rent. Right now, I need to raise $200 (monthly rent) just to be able to stay where I am. The landlord is not the most compassionate person, so if I don't have the money, I'm out onto the street.

This whole situation makes my depression explode. I feel a lot of things right now. Mosty - fear of failure. I feel like I will have to accept that I'm a failure because I can't find any income because I'm a failure because I can't find any income... Recursive, reductive nonsense clouding my head.

But Hubski is a good place. I've had my share of conflicts here, but people have always been appreciative, intelligent and eloquent about their thoughts and feelings. I appreciate that. That is something I'd like to have more of in my life right now: a good company.

There's no job in Russia that could possibly yield me $200 in two weeks (barring drug trafficking), so I'm looking for freelance options or full-time online work abroad. If you know anyone who needs

- Russian < > English translation, interpreting or tutoring,

- writing (of most sorts): fiction, newspapers, blogs etc.

- screenplays (or similar plot/dialogue/worldbuilding writing)

- web design and/or front-end development

please let me know.

I think doing homework and essays for students might be the most lucrative if you need quick cash

That would've been good option, yeah.

Unfortunately, both schools and unis are almost over here. It's exam time, both state-governed and university. I don't think I can be of help there, let alone get paid for it.

Is your English good enough to write essays for American/asian students?

user-inactivated  ·  2156 days ago  ·  link  ·  

I believe so. Any particular place I can find those students-in-need?

I know we're deep in discussion on Reddit but I'm glad you're back here as well. Feel free to PM me if you want to vent about things.

Yeah go for it mate. There was a lot to unpack from what I recall, take your time.
