loving september

hands up if you do not like september.

i just lurve this september. haha...it is a month which is divided into half work and half holidays. let me calculate how many days i have to work.

out of the 30 days in september, i only have to work 16 days (officially) woohoo!!!
next monday is another day off. then we get one whole week for hari raya. what is there not to celebrate?

well, of course the only thing i am not celebrating is hari raya itself and the idea of sitting at home the whole week.

the newspaper is bombarded with holidays tours and packages almost daily because of the matta fair and i wish i can go on one. feel like going to south korea in that one week because one, the price is affordable. two, it is time to get lost in a country where everyone speaks a language you do not understand. it is a good escape from normal daily life.
however, the thought of joining a tour alone is setting me back. there is just no one to invite or interested to go. some are worried of h1n1, some said no holidays, some said no money. anyone out there???

ok the following video is not so related to the post but the song just comes to my mind to my mind when i think of september.
it is the song 'try to remember' which i first heard in the movie 'city of glass' staring leon lai and shu chyi. the one i have here is the original one sang by jerry orbach in the musical comedy 'the fantasticks'. roy orbinson also has another good version.
i think my september will be just as slow but not melancholic as the song.

Yes! I agree with you. September is a lovely month purely because the air is filled with autumn smell and i'm celebrating my birthday soon! Lovely lovely September.
