November Morn
November morn, I slept until the night became a brand new day. One sleepy head sleeping from a non-romantic bed. November morn can really make me sleep all day. Yayy! Here comes the hardly interesting month again. If I am to describe the days of November, it’s all dark, dreary, gloomy and cold to me. I loathe it and I loathe it more when it rains. It’s the month that I want to stay home and sleep all the time. But it would make me five-figure poorer if I do nothing but sleep. Who gets richer by just sleeping, anyway. November is my birth month but it doesn’t cheer me up a bit. I can let this month pass without thinking about my birthday. Whew! This is how this boring November month has affected me. For the natives of cold countries, it’s normal to have this kind of days in November. But I am not a native here that’s why I get this kind of illusion everytime it enters. And every November morn is a compelling attempt to get up.
One November day in Copenhagen
This is how it looks when I take pictures in November. Without enhancing the color, it obviously looks dull and grey. No glimpse of sunlight whatsoever. The somewhat bright color of the sky, however, signifies a broad daylight.
No Thriller Night
I’m sure my family and relatives in Davao have been busy preparing for tomorrow’s highlight of the month. It’s always on the 1st and 2nd of November that we pay a visit to our demised loved ones in the cemetery. I must say I haven’t been with my family on this occasion for eleven years now. But the memories I used to celebrate with them are, of course, unforgettable. The cemetery were crowded from the crow of the cock in the morning till the wee hours of the next day. I remember some people were sleeping over the graveyard. We tried to do it once but it rained so we went home. Because of the crowd, the cemetery becomes a no-scary place on this occasion, that’s why many are staying longer than midnight.

It’s a no-thriller night for the cemeteries this Halloween, thanks to visiting people lighting candles, offering flowers on the graves of their loved ones. According to history, Halloween is the time when the dead spooked and disturbed the living. To scare them away, people started wearing spooky masquerade. But in a modern time, a Halloween party or gathering is organized not to scare away ghosts but to have fun. I don’t know, however, if I would have fun in this kind of a party when I see spooky faces in front of me. I haven’t been to a Halloween party.
Yellow Rose Bushes
I know that I will not be seeing colourful blooms now that cold seasons hit us again. The flowering bushes will be nothing but dull branches and twigs. I get accustomed to seeing dead-ish trees and plants in winter. And when summer comes I’m flabbergasted when I see flowers of different colours in the streets and I take pictures non-stop. Just like what I did past summer when I saw rose bushes in rows making the streets very pleasant to walk by.

I’m not so sure if these are roses but they resembled the quality of a rose, though, these are huge in size. And look whoelse like yellow roses! It seems as though the bumble bee was enjoying the sweet nectar of it. How sweet it is, we would never know. I didn’t want to disturb the bee in its sweetest moment so I tried not to make a sound from my camera when I took it. I was glad it didn’t move till I left.

Some of the flowers had started to wither already though it was just in mid-summer. But I’m sure these bushes will bear their finest blooms again in another year. And I am not going to miss it.
