Spring

Today was the epitomy of a Perth Spring day. Low 20 degrees celsius, bright sunshine, not a cloud in the sky kind of day. I hope Perthites were able to enjoy what we have been blessed with. So i thought i'd jot a few things i love and not-so-love about Spring....

What i love about Spring:
1) The mild temps
2) the fine sunny days that arent too hot, not too cold.
3) fashion (more summery clothes)
4) flowers, plants, scenery..... just a lot nicer.
5) no rain (although i know that's a bad thing)
6) having coffee at an outdoor cafe, watching the crowds go by.
7) feeling the sun for the 1st time on my winter-white skin
8) announcements of engagements and weddings
9) Our blue sky (its the best i've seen anywhere else in the world)

What i hate about Spring:
1) hayfever
2) hayfever
3) hayfever

For some reason, my hayfever has been getting worse for the past 2 yrs, which have been the only yrs i've really been affected by hayfever. Previous to this, i never really suffered from it. All of a sudden now, i get the full on itchy-teary eyes, runny nose, itchy throat, congested feeling.... Thank goodness for medication, i dont think i'd be able to survive the day/outdoors if not for it!
