Since August, I have take a new role. I call it new because I haven't been involved in it for a long time, even though I used to do it around 2005 before graduating from college. Being a teacher, that's what I've been busy with lately. I remember that period when I worked quite hard. Really challenging but very impressive.

Working in Three Places
The story is interesting because since writing my thesis, I have worked in three places at once. My daily activities start from 8 to 2 pm working as a freelance translator at a social foundation. Even though I'm social, I still get paid even though it's not much. Very useful for building a portfolio and improving the economy.
After leaving the office, I went home to shower and clean up. After that, I went to an English course which was not far from the boarding house. So it's not always motorized because the distance is only about 1-2 km. If I want to walk, I go without a motorbike.
In the evening I went to the student's house to give private lessons. This private tutoring is managed by a tutoring institution that specifically sends teachers to students' homes as needed. Perhaps this is a form of convenience and benefit offered as added value to tutoring.
Work Challenges in your 40s
Unexpectedly, I am now reliving memories of the past. In order to make money, I had to go back to the classroom to teach English. Actually, for the last 15 years I have also worked, namely as a blogger and freelance translator. Unfortunately, after the pandemic the economy cannot recover as before. Earning money is increasingly difficult, people do whatever they can to earn a living—including me.
