September comes around and autumn air is rounding up the trajectory of what happened during the past weeks.

It is a mix of call and warm and hints of new beginning. The same thing with my new responsibility for being a part of my organization.

Last week is tiring with piles of activities that is given to us but this week will be the time for the students to relax and enjoy the event the school prepares for us.

"Nalliana, does the design for our booth has already been packed? We'll be in the gym in 10 minutes." One of the scout asked me as she check the other boxes for the things needed in our booth.

I opened some boxes and checked the materials we will be using on designing our booth and the stuff that we will be using as something we will be selling in order to get funds.

My organization, Women Up is an organization that promotes the women empowerment and creates a safe space for women to be themselves and to advocate about the feminism and women related movement to stop the oppression.

As the world is changing and more people are being woken up from the misogynistic and patriarchal view, women oppression is still adamant and can be seen in so many situations and places. It hindrances for the growth, safe space, and opportunities for women. It is time to stop that and advocate more about women empowerment.

Upon checking the boxes I bring two of them with one on top of the other in the gymnasium where the booth fest will take place. All of the booths from different organizations will be placed here as the university said that they will turn on the air conditioning so that the student and the students who is in duty for their booth will have a cool place to be in.

I agree with it because being outside for too long even if it is already autumn, too much sunlight will still make people a little uncomfortable and sweaty. Adding the fact that there will be many students in the area.

"Okay girls, let us set up our booth and get things started." Our organization president announced as her hands is clasps from one another and bearing a smile on her face.

She's quite energetic for an early morning as today. It is only 5 am for fuck sake.

We have been here at school since 4 am. Organizing and packing the materials needed for our booth.

The event will start by 8 but the opening of the booth today will be at 10 am. As 8 am to 10 am will be used as an opening ceremony for the event that will take place for the whole week.

There is already a stall the university had given to each organization which makes the setting up of the booth easier. It is a table with a conjoined wall on the other far side. Giving an opportunity for the organization to plaster any booth posters.

I take charge of designing the table for our booth as I drape two different fabrics on it. I used the darker plain violet fabric as the base on the table and putting a light pastel sheer purple with glitters on top of it. Then, topping it with more light and pastel purple that has stars on it.

I hummed to myself and felt proud. It looked cute and classy.

I opened the box of the things that we will be using in our booth such as the box organizer for the crochet items our organization president made herself. She likes to crochet and we decided to buy the items on her with her decided price and will be selling it with just a additional cost but in a reasonable price.

I giggled as I place the mini octopuses, flowers, mini flower boquet, and mini fruits on each tray. It looks so aesthetic and cute not to buy honestly.

Looking over to my co-orgmates, they are setting up the big tray for the scavenger number game that we planned. It is a game wherein the student will be blindfolded and they will try to scoop as many cut out papers with numbers as much as they can for one minute. After that, all the collected paper with number will be added to one another and the total number counted will be used to earn a prize.

The prizes on the blind bags with designated numbers are ranging from foods, stickers, keychains, school supplies, and even crochet items. It is a win for everyone. We thought about it as something that the students will definitely enjoy because they will be leaving the booth smiling and with a remembrance. Also, it will encourage more students to try out the game we prepared. If they are not up for the game, they can just buy our crochet items.

The time flew so fast and we didn't noticed that it is almost 10 am. We had finished setting up and already doing our own make up to look presentable for the students.

Today, some of the officers from the organization will be on duty such as our president, treasurer, and secretary. Myself as the heads scout and another scout are the ones to fulfill the duty today for the opening. Another five will be on duty tomorrow and we will take turns on days so that we could still have rest and enjoy the event on our day off.

"Ready?" Our president's enthusiasic voice got our attention.

The four of us nodded and smiled at her. "Ready." We answered in unison.

"Let's slay this girls!" Our secretary squealed on her place.

"Women up, all together!" We cheered as the sounds of the students excited chatter neared.

A proud and excited smile is crept up on my face when an Instagram notification from my phone caught my attention.
