[avatar=theladywrath] - My summer HA. The thing that I look forward to most is going out with the kiddos to a park or a beach or a mountain and just chillin and having a good time. I love the warmth.

[edit]

It made a liar out of me haha XD!!!

My summery HA:

I'll just keep my HA in that spring/summer theme if that's alright with you. :-) I adore the first warm weeks of spring when I get to enjoy the warm weather before my hayfever sets in... ^^" During those days, I find that usually walk more than usual to enjoy the sun and the improving weather. Like skipping the connecting bus and walking the last few stations. After the cold of winter, the warmer air just feels lovely. :-)

This one was really hard for me, because i really dislike summer. It's far too hot (i have a very bad heat intolerance due to the MS) and there's far too many bugs. So i went back in time and thought about what i USED to like about summer.

When i was little, i used to run around at night catching fireflies. Rain didn't deter me, and i always enjoyed it. That's one of my fond memories of when i was young. Running around, barefoot, in the light misty rain at night, trying to capture fireflies. So that's what i tried to do with this HA, really capture that feeling.

Thanks for this awesome giveaway and i'm really glad i was able to be a part of it. :)

I made an HA of thunder storms =) I love thunder storms in spring, summer and autumun <3 But especially summer thunder storms. Its a feeling of clear and fresh air after the rain. And it feels the whole energy summarize at the clouds to let it all out. I just love it!!! I feel very energetic on these days. I love spring and autumn the most.

I'm looking forward to a few quiet moments by the ocean to calm my soul.

Thanks for having the giveaway. It has been much fun.

thank you so much guys :)

Thank you both very much for this giveaway! :D

Here is my entry:

What I love about Autumn is the weather change. I love the feeling of a soft and fresh breeze after a very hot summer. And of course I love the falling leaves! The color change in the trees is very nice :D

Final entry....

Fall is my favorite season but here in Cali we are entering into our Summer season. Today is the first day that we are suppose to hit 100 degrees! I love the warmer months & use to love Summer, still do until we hit the triple digits... our Summers aren't like they use to be when I was a kid! So I've switched to loving the Fall weather which is similar to my childhood Summers ;) I made my avatar into my bumbly self as these are not only 2 of my favorite colors, I just love bees!

I love spring/summer you can get out of the house & go do things.Go to the beach & relax,go swimming,picnics,cook out,Go to amusement parks,take a vacation.Just break out from the winter Blaaaaaaz,Get outside in the nice weather & enjoy it.=D

Thank You so much for the Cherry & Lilac potions =D
Congratulations to all the winners

I know this doesn't quite look summer-y, but I have a perfectly good explanation, ahha: http://i1225.photobucket.com/albums/ee392/98765anna/summ.png "> Since I'm still in school, summer provides me with the perfect time to pursue my hobbies and really try to explore my interests, like film, and catch up on everything that I missed during the school year with my friends (since sadly, due to my health, I had to be homeschooled). I can't wait to film stuff, eat some good food, go to some of the festivals, and explore the city with my friends. c: <3

Of all the seasons, spring is by far my favorite! I love that it's not too hot and not too cold, but you also have all the smells of the flowers in bloom and freshly cut grass =) We are in the middle of spring now and it is sunny and beautiful today so I couldn't be happier! Here is my spring time HA:

I'm definitely a true fall baby since my birthdays in October. I love pumpkin pie, the fall weather, the leaves changing color, and wearing sweaters, jeans, boots, scarves, and big jackets! I honestly can't stand the heat and its so much harder to cool down than it is to warm up. This is also part of the reason why I could live in the UK or Ireland for a long time because I love the cold! haha.

I live in California though, so the weathers been iffy between rain and sun... but the earths finally made up her mind and given us summer weather! So, one of the avatars I tried to pull up in my photobucket didn't work. So I went for my next big "summerish" avatar and uploaded it to imgur haha.

This avatar is based of Alphonse Mucha's, "Zodiac" piece. If some of you know what Art Nouveau is, Mucha was the inventor of it (all that pretty scrolly stuffs! look it up and you'll know.) I saw some of his work around my hometown in a gallery exhibit (that was the next biggest exhibit besides his Paris one!!!) and this piece really inspired me. Although, I'm constantly inspired by art in general. c:

The one on the left is Mucha's piece, and the one on the right is my HA interpretation.

Going to message you about that but just have not had a chance! I will soon though. <3 <3

That's an awesome representation! Love it.

Mercenaire is my pride and joy. He's my battle pet and the first pet I made on this site. He's meant to be a mercenary aha. A friend of mine made some art for me, and although I haven't gotten a custom lookup I've made some effort aha.

I still need to write a story about him.

The other pets I've most worked on are Perle; bubbly personality, party girl Illico: gourmet pet, I have a chef character planned for him. Timide; he's my mad scientist! Goutte: she's a little girl that lives next to the forest and takes in abandoned animals. She loves the rain but hates thunderstorms!

Did I miss something? People don't seem to be posting on the theme in the first post :o

Summer is when I love to spend time in my garden, both flower and veggie, with my kitty kat helping out by getting in my way all the time. LOL Summer is also spending time in the swimming pool cooling off. (altho my pool is above ground and not inground) and visiting family who I haven't seen in a year. Love summer!
