Journal #9

Autumn is a fun season. It is not my favorite by any means, but I do enjoy this time of year. My favorite season is probably summer. I just love being stress free, tan, and soaking up the sun. I suppose I love autumn too. One of the main reasons I liked autumn is because it is football season. I love football. It has always been a part of my life. I grew up watching my brother play football since he was in third or fourth grade. I was dragged to every one of his games when I was little so I was kind of forced to love it. I actually really enjoyed going to his games once he got to high school and that was beneficial for myself because that is where I met the people I would be going to high school with in a few years. I love everything about football and every Friday night in fall it is safe to say I am at a football field somewhere. My family also follows the professional league so our Sunday afternoons consist of watching the Chicago Bears play. Another reason I enjoy fall is because of the weather. I love wearing jeans and it is so comfortable to simply walk around in jeans and a sweat shirt. It is also perfect weather for bonfires. I find it really beautiful the way that the leaves change colors as well. Nature is just cool. I love driving down a street with a lot of trees and seeing all of the yellow, orange, and red leaves. Another reason I enjoy the fall season is because of the holidays. I love Halloween and Thanksgiving. I dress up for Halloween every year. No shame. I think this year I am going to be a mermaid. I also love Thanksgiving and it is one of my favorite holidays because I always spend it with family. Also because there is always a football game on as well. You really cannot go wrong with family, food, and football. Autumn is a great time of year.
