Hey downtown Phoenix! It’s Yoori. I can’t believe this month is almost over; time is going by so fast, and it’ll be the end of the year before we know it! Anyone decorating for Halloween yet? In my neighborhood, I’ve seen some houses all decked out with pumpkins, colorful leaves, and even scarecrows!
I’m going to get hate for this but I’m not a huge Halloween or fall fan! No one asked but my favorite season is actually the wintertime! I love everything about it from all the music, events, festivals, and most importantly, da vibes (you have to laugh). Anyways, let’s get started with the events! I hope you all have a great week, and I’ll see you in October!
