I’m going to be a little bit controversial right now lovelies by admitting that I absolutely HATE summer! I can’t stand the way that it makes me feel and the lack of things to really look forward to! There so, I thought I would share here why it is completely okay to dislike the next few months and to dream of autumn already!

Good Morning Lovelies, 

Summer! A time of year which most people look forward too! However, I am here to hold my hands up and say that I am not really a fan at all. I hate the way it makes me feel, as I find myself in a constant state of anxiety. As someone who longs for the autumn and winter seasons, I find the lack of cosy, at home vibes, a real hardship to deal with.

Don’t get me wrong, there are some qualities to do with summer that I love, yet, I ultimate enter SAD season in a totally different time to everyone else. Summer is a season that brings out a lot of bad elements in fact. Some I have listed below to show you exactly what I mean lovelies to highlight why it is actually okay to hate summer…

The Weather Gets Everyone Down: Yes, the sun is stunning and it is great to feel warm without paying for heating. However, when it gets too hot then it’s never good. In the UK, the humidity is a right bitch at times. It never stops and when even a hint of a breeze passes through it is a dream. But until that moment, everyone ends up complaining that it is just too hot to handle. 

There Are Bugs Everywhere: As soon as summer hits, the cast of Bugs Life decides to descend into our homes and gardens. Now, I will admit that I love seeing bees flying around. A fly torturing my home by buzzing around everywhere and ants running a picnic, not so much. 

Nothing To Actually Celebrate: When you think about summer there is no big event to celebrate. Yes, there are festivals and parties, but summer doesn’t bring anything exciting to the calendar like autumn and winter does. There is no Halloween, Christmas or New Year to look forward too and that makes it a very boring season. 

Everyone Burns Something On The BBQ: Getting the BBQ out can seem like a fun idea at the time. Yet, when the sausages end up burnt, the burgers don’t get cooked properly and the salad goes limp in the heat, they actually end up being not so great. You never get those moments when popping a dish in the slow cooker or oven. Unless you forget about them aha! 

Hay Fever Is A Bitch: Already my eyes feel like they have been punched due to the pollen and other allergies in the air. Everyone who suffers from hay fever will be wishing for summer to come and go as soon as possible. Honestly, I’ve stocked up big time on eye soothes, antihistamines and more to handle it. 

Autumn Is A Better Time: AUTUMN IS JUST THE BEST! From the moment the season begins life is better. The cosiest season of them all brings out the best food, fashion and festivities. It’s not too hot or too cold! Everyone is excited about what is to come! It is just a better time! One I will spend all of summer dreaming of! 

I don’t want this post to seem like a big moan lovelies, however, with summertime sadness already hitting, I felt like it would be good to get my hatred out before it was too late aha! If you are a fellow summer loather, you are my kind of person! Let’s unite in cosy jumpers with a good book and a cup of warm Vimto ASAP! Even if we have to do it whilst lying on a beach towel!
