Where has this summer gone? September 1st marks the first day of "work". I use that term loosely as it's barely an hour long meeting but classes get doled out and agendas discussed before everyone heads to the cafe. I take this time to zone out as my mind takes too long to process Bulgarian conversations out of context. Instead I play my favorite look busy past time anagram game by taking a word inspired by the place I currently am. For example, Director: Dire, tore, tire, rod, direct, cite, etc. etc. etc.
After this first meeting day we aren't at school again until the 15th with classes beginning on the 16th.
It's been almost 3 months since I've taught a lesson. Probably 4-5 months since I've had a full week of school. It's always at this time of year that this commercial pops into my head.
The beginning of the school year is one of those things that no one is ever ready for but part of me, the optimistic part of me, is ready to start. So the optimistic part of me also wants to talk why the coming months are going to be the best ones yet....
Cooler days=being able to drink coffee in the morning without breaking into a sweat.
Not sweating all the time. Living in a cement bloc doesn't allow for much ventilation.
The smell of Autumn and the smell of everyone turning on their wood burning stoves.
Pumpkin EVERYTHING
Cardigans and Blazers. What?
Not feeling guilty/being able to go to bed at 9pm.
CHRISTMAS CHRISTMAS CHRISTMAS. Is that jumping the gun a bit?
So fare thee well summer. It's been fun. Play me out to this song
