And so my post today won’t be anything spectacular. I mean these things happen when a girl wakes up thinking about school and jumps out of bed at 6:15 am with her alarm-clock.

Today, I’ve got to get the piles of papers currently inhabiting most flat surfaces in my office taken care of. Ideally this means sorted and filed. In reality this may mean stacked together and tucked under my desk. I am still holding out for the first option.

The problem is that today all of the teachers at school are getting CPR certified. Whot-whot. Then I’ll be able to save people ER/Grey’s Anatomy/House-style. Or at least that’s what I’ve been telling myself given the fact that this training will last all day on the day before school when I’ve got a million and one things to get done.

I’ve also been trying to convince myself that being CPR certified will make me better looking. Really, who doesn’t love a girl who knows CPR and Foucault?

Oh and I think that I get a certificate for being certified. A certificate!!

Maybe when IKEA opens I’ll buy a cheep frame (but one that may be 20% higher than other IKEAs around Europe–yes, the blog is in Bulgarian but you can still see an pretty detailed list of price differences) to frame my certificate. Maybe not.

Maybe my name will be spelled CHAROLIN EIMIGH on said certificate. Yep. That’s how my name shows up on the CPR certification list. That makes me either Шаролин or Чаролин in Bulgarian where the “Ш” makes a soft “sh” sound in English or where the “Ч” makes a hard “ch” sound. It was a agreed that I should probably stick with the first because it’s prettier and sounds more French. O-la-la.

I guess it will be a long night at work. Good thing, Mladost is beautiful by night–it’s harder to see the garbage suck in the bushes on the way to and from campus at night.

Then tomorrow, September 15th, school starts (and I’ll be buying myself my own flowers to celebrate because I deserve them and because no student has ever brought me flowers for the first day of school. Teenagers). Really thought, I couldn’t be happier about the start of school because currently campus is lonely, empty and feels pretty lifeless without students around.
