September is a funny month. The weather starts to chill, the nights come in quicker and people tend to drift slowly into their winter shells. It's a time where there's no longer the happy disposition of summer guiding us through the working week. It is darker, gloomier and the battle to hold on to the good moods that were never too short suddenly appears.
September is also the month where work begins; be it college or university, school or your job, it seems that September is the no-excuse month. The start of the many dark winter months ahead of us.
This week, September has already shown itself in it's weather - it has been windy and cold, jacket weather is soon to arrive and the time for an autumn over hall is here.
As much as I wish I could wave a wand and have no dilemmas, I missed the train back to Hogwarts yesterday and am in no mood to attempt to fly a car nor bare the wrath of Snape (I'd be a better driver than Ron, I can assure you). I am simply going have to face these coming months with their changes, be it winter skin or in my day to day life.
No matter how many people tell you, life after high school is difficult and different - you don't have the same timetable as everyone, you're even in different parts of the country and are all moving on with the next chapter of your life. It's a big idea of 'letting go' and suddenly not having a security blanket of your friends there for you, after all a phone call isn't the same as a hug.
I guess I am finding this new chapter difficult, for I've not truly started mine. And with people being busy it leads to a lot of alone time and that itself leads to thinking. A lot of thinking.
As much of a pain winter skin is, which I am now starting to experience, it's not the same as Septembers changes. This post is more personal than the one's I've previously written, something I'm heavily aware of. And I wish I could come to conclusions to all predicaments that happen but this one has no straight forward answer. It's just that saying - it's life.
As much as I wish to be woken up when September ends like Billie Joe Armstrong (I'm sorry for these puns, I can't help myself), it just means that I'll have to grow up quicker.
I'm going to start weekly posts on predicaments - they'll be less personal I can assure you - as well as fashion news posts every week. Another September change but far more positive.
Don't be afraid to give me feed back on what you'd like to see or change - this blog is a place for me to grow as a writer and blogger.
What I'm trying to say is that this month is the start of so many changes but I'm going to bring some of the positive ones to this blog. And if there's anyone else feeling like I am well, hello. This is going to be difficult but we'll get by it.
See you next time and thank you for reading this far,
