The month game

[Skyblade]

This is derived from Soren's "Season game", so thanks Soren for the idea! Basically, we go through the months, saying something about each one. It can be something general, like "January is cold" or "November has a cool name", or something personal such as "This month is special because (blah)" or "I don't like this month because (bleh)". Alright, no use waiting! Let's go

This may be the first time I truly felt enthralled in January because of the idea of a new year. It truly is a blessing we have lived to see 2015! At least, I consider it to be. Last month, I found myself thinking about the year that stretches in front of me like a path to travel. I realized that sometime in 2015, I will (with a 99% probablilty) at some point or another laugh and cry. I will smile. I will feel stressed, angry, excited, tired, elated, nervous, joyful, lonely, thankful, depressed, and calm. I wonder what the year holds, but I must live it to find out. And I know this sounds so cheesy, like something one would find in a soppy speech. But it's honest, and I think being truthful is more important that trying to be cool or whatnot.

And the same holds for you ^

August, because August is the only month when it doesn't rain in Western Washington.

October, it's mildly cold and brisk, and the skies are quite often grey.

[Banya]

October, because of colourful leaves, clear air, cute clothes and marching band.

[Skyblade]

Cool responses everyone. Banya, you're in marching band?!

I don't have a favorite month, because I can't choose. It would probably be between:
- May (a lot of exciting things going on at school)
- August (my birthday and that's when school starts)
- December (colder weather, Christmas)

But I like all of them.

May. Spring is in full flow, with trees gaining green leaves and the weather perfect for going outside. Perfect, in fact, to play football/soccer (for our americans) or to have swordplay with friends.

Cool viewpoints, you all Now going on with the month game.

February... um, Valentine's Day is a bit exciting

[Delthion]

Agreed, co-op bowling outing!

July, because staying up until midnight on the fourth, watching fireworks from the lake under the bridge.

I know I distracted y'all with the poll but don't forget the point of the game, too ^^ Going through the months in order and saying something about each one.

So, like, the next one is March. I wonder why it's called March.

Banya, you're in marching band?!

I was on the drumline for four years in high school, but I'm not in marching band in college.  Now I just enjoy watching the shows.

Next up.. April.  Wet and warm and smells like earthworms.  Popular girls' name.  Stone: diamond.  Flower: sweet pea.  Or is it daisy?  I wasn't born in April so I don't care.  April means rainboots and final exams.  April neatly wraps up the school year for colleges on semesters.

June... because my brother was born that month, and thus, it is the most special month of the whole year.

November. My birthday month, but it also houses nice weather that suits me perfectly and Thanksgiving, my second favorite holiday.

*starting over*

January.  It's welcomed in with confetti poppers and horns and sparkling grape juice and celebration, but the entire month is spent putting away Christmas decorations, complaining about the cold, and longing for spring.  It's a pretty miserable month, but sledding makes up for everything else.

February. 1 it's my birth month and a lot of people I know have birthdays there too
And Valentine's Day
And snow
And no bug bites or allergies
And stuff I am probably forgetting.
