What is your favorite part of summer?
| My favorite part is that I have more free time when I do not have to work, study, and everything else! |
| Watch first, decide later! |
| summer is not here for me yet, i still got 2 weeks of classes... T_T anyways, summer is the time where i spend more time watching anime/ reading manga, since theres not much else to do, and work takes energy... plus I plan on going to anime cons and I got 2 on my list, Fanime (San Jose, CA), and Anime Expo(Los Angeles, CA), though Fanime is already done(it was quite fun) . if anyone is going to AX, ill see you there in July. |

| I love having more free time. It means I can do things like practice foreign languages, catch up on my reading, anime and watching films I keep meaning to see. It also means I have more time to work and earn money to pay for anime stuffs so summer is good :) I love how my summers have gotten waaay longer thanks to going to university. If I'd just gone and gotten a job I'd have no summer :P so there is always a bonus to further education. :P |
 Check out SunnyCon! The North-East of England's newest and biggest convention of anime, manga and Japanese culture! Now a club on MAL too! |
| More free time, I can read books and watch movies that I otherwise would not have time for. Adding to the fact that I don't work just makes it all the sweeter. |

| The best part of the summer are beach parties and bonfires <3 No college party/frat can beat drinking with your friends on a beach all night by a bonfire :P oh, and I also love my summer job as a camp counselor. Over summer my job takes over my life (aside from parties), but i love it. |

Over summer my job takes over my life (aside from parties), but i love it. I agree and disagree. Back home, we tend to throw some wicked bonfires. Many of my high school friends are country boy and girl type. However, I live in a fraternity and throwing a party there is like having all my best friends around. My school might be a little different because it is somewhat small. We have only six fraternities to start with. (if that helps you to gage size) Also the whole frat party thing might be different since I'm a guy too. |

Well, in my college the frats are pretty much just like Clubs, including the sketchiness factor. You go there to dance in a crowded room, pretty much. And the lines to get into the frats are annoying as well... Ii'm a small school too.. but since my school is so old (we should have been in the Ivy League) frats are really prominent on campus. We have 4 main frats on campus (aka: part of freshman/sophmore dorm buildings...) but we have a bunch off campus as well. The fact that i'm a girl doesn't help though XD. I feel like if I were a guy i'd love frats. |
| Ok, that helps me understand a lot better. At my school there usually are not lines unless it a really big registered event with the campus. The other nights people just come over and if they know someone, then they can come in. We have this policy to avoid random people from the community showing up which does happen. We have door duty people too, but they are not our pledges. Everyone on the house is on a big rotation. These people just keep an eye on everything during all the fun. Our fraternity houses are separate from the dormitories. Groups tend to go around campus and stop by multiple houses since you can walk from one end of the campus in somewhere between 10 and 20 minutes. (depending on walking speed, and the direction in which you go) |

| For me it's no school and seeing all of my friends that I've known since junior high/high school. I love them to death and always miss them during the semester. But I'm a little weird cause as soon as summer starts (and a lot of my friends are busy with work and summer courses so not a lot goes on during the day and sometimes even at night), I always find myself wishing that the fall semester would just come already. It always feels weird coming home from work and not having to sit down at my desk and do homework... |

| For me it would be no school, but this summer is an exception since I had to take horrible summer classes this year. =/ I'm in summer classes and I got friends going on vacation to cool places and just relaxing while I am doing homework. It sucks. :P I would rather be at a beach. It takes me forever just to write one essay. I have a final paper for my World Music class on a African Music Concert I went to and I have three pages to go. D: I have to work too in July, but work isn't as hard as classes. I'm just an assistant counselor at a camp and I watch kids. It is more fun than usual work. =P |

 |
| lol... I wish I could take a class like that, at least then Ill have some actual interest in the class... most classes are....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..... to me |

| Gotta say the free time, even though I'm doing an english101 class at my community college I still have tons of time to just sit back and watch anime; since I'm not working currently. I kind of dread my upcoming move to a bigger university and all the classes that I'm going to have to study for soon -sweatdrop- but I am excited about living in a dorm for the first time. |

I had a blast in the engineering dorms last year, we had plenty of smash bros tournaments and the like. if the people around you in the dorm are pretty open and friendly youll have a great time. one thing to notice, if you look down the hall in the afternoon and you notice many doors invitingly open, then chances are you will make a bunch of friends. |

| Watch first, decide later! |
CellaMushboon said: Autumn/Winter. I must admit that I am more of an Autumn/Winter person too. I used to always say Winter but I think I enjoy Autumn more. The leaves change colors and the temperature drops. However, I feel like the sun is out more. |
| Watch first, decide later! |
| I see, it doesn't get too overwhelmingly hot here. It occasionally gets in to the 90s. I don't like heat much so thats why I like the fall more. Its cooler, but I sort of miss being able to go swimming outside. |

| No School <--- Class from 1-5 More free time <--------------- TOO MUCH FREE TIME Work and Money <----------------- Zomg I have no car and can't find a job around where I live T_T Beach and Sun <--------- Too Hot Being outside <---------- Too Hot So yeah I'm not really liking summer at all. |
| I like no school and more free time. I wish I didn't have to work though and could go back to the old times in elementary school where I'd get up at 8am and be playing outside all day with my friends. |

| Definitely, more free time. After having to study for all those classes, its good to have summer to kick back and do whatever you want. |

| Summer sucks... Once you get in that 'ahh blow everything' mood it takes too much time to snap out of it... |
| Same here, more of an Autumn person, don't really like Spring and moderately Winter. But i clearly dislike Summer.... *sigh* |
| The lack of commitments is the best thing about summer. I get to catch up on some anime watching, so that ain't too bad either. |
| i kinda want to pick all of the above well since there's none except for the working 'coz i don't really get to do that i wish i can though (wishing really hard) i had to choose only one ^_^ |
| Ahhhh mine is being able to kick back and catch on the anime i've been setting back x) and being able to hang-out with my friends more~ |
 |
| to me, it's just having fun! ^_^ |
