“Sometimes you just have to let the street speak when words fail.”
“A veces solo queda dejar que la calle hable cuando faltan las palabras.”

Hello friends. Life is hard; sometimes I feel like I wasn't born with a lucky star. I've been working these last two days colorizing photos. They made me correct everything because they didn't explain properly and wanted neutral tones. I stayed up all night for two days; they gave me a deadline of today at 10:30 AM. I finished at 10 AM, started uploading everything to Drive, and the internet company cut the service for maintenance. I delivered everything at 2 PM, and they told me it was out of time.
When you are going through financial problems, debts, and responsibilities, and you get an opportunity, you put in all your absolute effort... and this is how life repays us sometimes. People say things happen for a reason or life has something prepared for us, but I don't know. Sometimes, with blow after blow, one just wants to throw in the towel.
Ironically, I took this series on the day of that first interview. As you will understand, I don't feel like expressing myself much right now. I hope you end your week well, and blessings.

Hola amigos, la vida es dura. A veces siento que no nací con esa estrella de la suerte. He estado estos dos días trabajando, colorizando fotos. Me corrigieron todo porque no explicaron bien y querían tonos neutros. Me he amanecido dos días; me dieron plazo hasta hoy a las 10:30 AM. Termino a las 10 AM, empiezo a subir todo al Drive y la empresa de internet corta el servicio por mantenimiento. A las 2 PM entrego todo, y me dicen que ya está fuera de tiempo.
Ahora, cuando uno pasa por problemas económicos, deudas, responsabilidades, obtiene una oportunidad, se esfuerza totalmente... y así nos paga la vida a veces. Dicen que las cosas pasan por algo o que la vida nos tiene algo preparado, pero no sé, a veces uno, con golpes uno tras otro, solo desea tirar la toalla.
Irónicamente, esta serie la tomé el día de la primera entrevista. Como entenderán, no tengo ganas de expresarme ahora. Espero que terminen bien su semana y bendiciones.
