I am screaming October because it is my birthday month. Yelp, it is my birthday month. Sing it with me; it is my birthday, and one last time, it is my birthday! Not only is it my birthday month, but it's also the best month ever because it brings me closer to my favorite season, winter.

However, it is also a time to fight back with Breast Cancer Awareness. October is not about alleviating the other months; every day is essential. This month is about making an impact through awareness and celebrating life. It is crucial for us ladies (and there are cases with men) to ensure that the tatas are checked and taken care of, because our livelihood depends on getting mammograms.

Moreover, I am currently in Australia and grateful to have a scheduling system because I needed this post to go out promptly.

Finally, my Breast Cancer Awareness tree this year is intriguingly sexy—the combination of black and carnation pink yields dominance and a striking contrast.

This tree symbolizes beauty, endurance, and strength to all the lives lost, enduring, and surviving.
