winter delights

- it looks cool when you breath out small clouds into the air
- fairy lights and candles everywhere
- advent calenders and celebrating christmas
- ice scating is really fun
- (more coming)

spring miseries
- (coming at the end of spring)
summer delights
- (coming at the start of summer)
summer miseries
- it's too hot to go outside or be on the computer or even lie in bed
- so. many. construction sites.
- being sweaty all day (even right after a shower)
- headaches from the sun, and having to take sunglasses everywhere
- getting bitten by insects all the time (they love my blood)
- the high-pitched buzz of mosquitoes next to your ear (especially in the night, waking you up)
- there actually is such a thing as too much free time (so bored, but also so unmotivated)
- the feeling of your clothes sticking to your skin from the sweat
- touching any kind of metal or dark surface will burn you
- the air in public transport is either so stuffy you can't breathe or so cold that you freeze to death without a jacket (which you didn't bring)
- opening the window during the day is impossible so no fresh air until 9 p.m.
- the dumpsters stink horribly in a wide radius (especially the food waste)
- too much light to properly watch TV (or any screen)
- too hot for sports of any kind (even if you have all that free time to do them)
- not much appetite, especially not for hot food or sweets
- if you go to the city, you will regret it (so much scorching asphalt and so many sweaty people)
autumn delights
- two words: spooky season!
- another two words: crunchy leaves (so satisfying)
- also the leaves turn really beautiful colours, nature is so cool
- happy girlfriend because it's her favourite season
- pumpkins (to eat and to decorate)
- cozy sweaters and cuddling up in a blankie are fun again
- great season for candles (especially spooky ones)
- doing sports during the day feels good, but it's okay to slack off a bit (hibernation season is coming)
- enjoying tea and hot chocolate and soup again
- perfect time to celebrate your witchy side
- getting a bit (or very) scared watching the one horror movie that I will watch in the whole year
- enjoying the fresh and crisp air when you open the windows
- fog/mist is very cool and mysterious
- porridge tastes great again (and cinnamon is allowed)
- enjoying how the cold air wakes me up in the morning and makes my eyes less puffy
autumn miseries
- it gets dark earlier and earlier (I crave daylight)
- getting properly sick at least once when it gets cold
- my body has less energy and I feel less motivated to do stuff
- everything is wet most of the time and it rains a lot
- having to take a big coat and warm things everywhere
- christmas stuff is up much too early
- salads and cold food are not as satisfying anymore
- coughing, sneezing and nose-blowing people on public transport (and touching handles etc. - yay bacteria)
- the trees look sad after their leaves have fallen off
