That smell, light, and feeling.

Fall is that beautiful time of the year when all you wanna do is
look at the watercolor trees in their beautiful rich state.


I was just sitting in my kitchen doing some math, and all of the sudden.
I could feel fall approaching. The sun through the window hitting the
blue and white checked couch, the cool breeze flowing in through the
open window. And somehow, I smelled it. You know the smell of Autumn?
I know it well.
I LOVE all season. All 4. Winter means cocoa and Christmas, and that feeling of love.
Spring is just everything being re-born. Coming to life. It's beautful. And then summer! Oh summer! Everything is perfect, happy, and just bright! I always peg summer with laughter.

But Fall. Something about fall. To me it's a time to restart. It's a time of rich colors. New pencils, notebooks, hot tea or coffee (or both), light jackets, pumpkins :D, costumes, leaf catching, boots, socks, the color of pumpkin, starbucks (hot starbucks!), and just trees. And of course, coming from the heart of the south, I dearly love football. That pigskin being fought over gives me such a huge adrenaline rush! Being in a stadium (Jordan-Hare to be exact!) with thousands of people all shouting for the same cause, there's a feeling of togetherness. I think I could write about fall until I die. But never run out of topics! Let me see if I can convey fall in photos...this might be a tad long.
