summer suffering.

Contrary to the rest of the Australian population, I hate summer. It is my least favorite season.
I can't stand to be near anyone who launches into a nostalgic discussion of how much they can't wait for summer, I want to smash a brick in your head, just quietly.

I present to you, 10 Things I hate about summer:

10. I hate the way I can't sleep at night because I'm too hot.
9. I hate the way I can't wear stockings, scarves and boots.
8. I hate NOT falling asleep to the sound of rain.
7. I hate my hair being sticky with sweat.
6. I hate having to re-apply deodorant 10 times a day
5. I hate wearing shorts.
4. I hate headaches, dehydration and dizziness
3. I hate humidity, blinding blue skies and non-existent wind.
2. I hate the prickles in the grass
1. I hate sunburn.

See, when you think about it, summer is pretty shit.
R.I.P Winter.

  1. i am in complete agreeance with you, dear taylah, and i would like to share a few things not mentioned in your post that i too hate about summer.

    - bugs. mozzies, flies, ticks, ants, and every other insect imaginable explode in plague proportions in summer.
    - the illegality of bonfires
    - the apparent attractiveness of beaches (too sandy, too salty, too messy, too many pretty people around)
    - PE at school.
    - swimming, which means messy, wet, awful-looking chloriney hair that needs washing after every swim
