❃ Mid October-Mid November Favorites ❃

There's no such thing as autumn/fall here in Singapore.Sad.The current weather here is a mix of the cold (from northern parts of Asia) and heat from Australia (they're having summer soon).It's so annoying.Sometimes,there are hot mornings and downpours in the evening,or chilly mornings and sunny afternoons.Anyways,here are my favourite things from Mid-October to Mid-November.I know it's kind of weird that I didn't do a Favourites for one whole month,but I couldn't wait and there were loads of things I went crazy for,over mid-October to mid-November, so here goes.

 FOOD
For food,it's all about breakfast foods.I wake up late nowadays because I have no school at the moment.(My meaning of late= 9-10 a.m.I know there are people who wake up at 1 p.m).
I'm obsessed with granola and bagels now.I'm not sure why,but I now give up on sweet cereals (e.g:Lucky Charms) and go for granola or corn flakes.The bagel obsession,well I blame my local grocery store for having buy 2 promotions and Philadelphia cream cheese. They're really good together and 1 bagel (or 2 halves) already make me half full and lasts for a long time.

CLOTHES
I've been loving sweaters and sweatpants(?).I have two pairs of sweatpants and I can't get enough of them.I wear them to sleep and sometimes don't bother changing out of them for the rest of the day.They're super comfy and even if you don't have a blanket,it feels like one is wrapped around you all the time.I really want to get a onesie but they're sort of pricey in Singapore. :(

SCENTS
The Yankee Candle stores here don't have a lot of autumnal scents,if it wasn't for holidays,they would be selling the normal ones.When I went to my nearest store last week,scents like Christmas Eve and Balsam & Cedar were on the shelves. I didn't need another candle,(since I still have the tiny ones from Korea) so I bought a room spray in the scent,Midsummer's night.It is musky and kind of smells like cologne (?? IDK??)  Anyway,I love it because it smells nice,plus removes odor.WIN.

MUSIC

1.White Winter Hymnal-Fleet Foxes
This is my most replayed song 
throughout October-November.It made me 
think of all things autumnal and bonfire nights^^
Do check out Pentatonix's cover of this song,
it's equally as good but I prefer the original.

2. I Don't Know-Nick Hakim
I discovered this song while I was on Tumblr and I'm really thankful 
to whoever reblogged it and brought it to my dashboard.It's a
 calming song (imo) and the title suits my thinking a lot.I don't know.

3.Medicine-The 1975
I've been waiting for this song to come out for 3 weeks and
 it's a song for BBC Radio One's re- score of the movie,Drive.
I liked the idea of this 'project' coming from the 1975 
because their music and aesthetic is influenced by 80s music and movies.


I won't blabber on,if not this post will be too long.Hope you enjoyed reading.
If you're interested in anything mentioned here,do check it/them out.
Thanksgiving is coming soon,like in a week and a half? If you're going to
celebrate it,I wish you a happy & safe Thanksgiving!
