First of Autumn

It's autumn!! Yay! I don't know why I'm so happy about it. It's really the first time in my life when I'm excited about autumn. I don't even know what I'm exactly waiting for. I don't wanna go to school, I'm not looking forward to winter. Maybe it's just the rain and cold that I'm waiting for, as stupid as it sounds like. Or maybe next year and graduating. I just wanna get out of high school already, but I also want it to rain. I don't own an umbrella and my hair gets fluffy and curly and my make-up spreads when it rains, but I still love rain and I will never buy an umbrella. And I don't really know why I want high school to end since I have no idea what I'm gonna do after high school. I wanna go abroad to study, but I'm fed up with studying already. If I studied something I like, it would be different, but I can't help that pessimistic idea of not being accepted anyplace nice. Ugh. Maybe I'm waiting for apples so I could bake an apple pie.
The idea of a perfect "normal" day: it would rain when I wake up. Not drizzling, but like really rain. I would drink coffee and listen to the radio. I would put on clothes of my own style, which excludes clothes that are meant for a very hot or very cold weather. I would go do something I like, maybe go to a job I really like. The rest is hard to define. I wouldn't come home after a nine-to-five job and lie on a couch watching TV. I would be doing something all day, keeping busy without burning out. I would like to be on the move all the time, meaning my feet would be ruined from walking because I'd only wear high heels. I like boots, but not winter boots, meaning the weather would have to be chilly but not cold. I like sunglasses but I never wear them. It could be sunny part of the day, but not hot, so that I could learn to use sunglasses. I like grey weather, but the sun is nice every once and a while. Yeah, I'm an autumn-person.
There is one problem with autumn, though: I don't know whether to say fall or autumn. According to my knowledge one is American English and one is British. I use American English. I have to admit I'm not sure which is American and which is British, but I think I like autumn more. High-class problems...
Until this year, I've considered myself as a summer-person. I was born in winter, but I've never been a winter-person. I used to love winter when I was a kid, back in the good old days when there was always tons of snow. But I always loved summer better. And hated autumn. Spring has always been just the annoying mid-phase when you're tired of winter and just waiting for summer to come. I like the end of spring when there are daffodils. Daffodils are my second-favorite flowers. But the funny thing is, during my eighteen and half years- lasting life I've hated autumn. Now I suddenly love it. People change, I guess.
