my favourite season has always been fall.
and if you check your calendar, it has already been august six days ago.
i know right, when did that every creep up on everyone?

just moments ago, i was proclaiming that 'california gurls' was my summer go-to song.
and now, i think i need to find something to slather on for the rest of the season.
if you think about it, summers are usually quite short.
summers dont usually start till june properly comes along.
then people would start chanting about the cliche beach activity and all that trash.
and then it will be followed by two months cos when august comes,
people start tightening their buttons in appreciation or detest of the coming months till october at least.

so just a quick one of things that remind me of fall.

1. august
just the idea of august arriving on my shores bring me hope that fall is gathering her petticoats. august never reminded me of anything other than fall. i mean really, associating august with summer is almost satanical.

2. holidays
poly holidays always messes me up, because then i always end up taking a (nonexistent) raincheck for outings with people that have a more regular holiday period with the rest of the world. july then becomes a really busy month with ranting and lots of breaking down from the existence of schoolwork.

3. fashion week
i'm not a fashion whore nor do i keep sight of what goes on with the fashion world. but the name itself is scattered in columns and shows everywhere. just two days ago, i remember watching the season premiere of 'project runway' and tim gunn mentioned about the finale being Fall Fashion Week in a new venue. it was then that it suddenly hit me, that fall was actually really coming soon or that being said, it was already here.

4. national day
with national day coming up in three days, i always make a yearly homage to this day. i wont go into the details but part of my groupie (and romantic) self would indulge in national day songs and that brings along 'home' by kit chan. i never really understood why, but maybe its the falling leaves in the music video tells of autumn. all the blues and browns tend to bring fall into mind.

5. and lastly, hoodies
you know fall is upon us when pullovers and hoodies start appearing in your favourite shops.
