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
