@coldrainAfter long thinking. And a very long time just sitting in the corner scrolling through looking at the books and shows I love, I have decide on...QUISHI HUANGXIANG YEWhich supposedly translates to 'Knight fantastic knight'. It's a "manhua" which is basically the same as manga except that it's:a) Read how books are "normally" read, from left to rightb) It's chinese (this one is translated though)c) IT"S IN FULL COLOUR.Ah yes now to the part that explains why I like it...I have always loved books in the fantasy genre. I loved reading spin-offs of classic tales, and I definitely love manga. This book combines my love of fantasy and manga, all into one epic series. Lin ling is an ordinary high school girl, but one day is whisked off into a game world, where she is given the mission is to gather the knights of the round table. This was the first time I came across a book with the Tale of King Arthur told in such a fascinating way. I read of magic, war, and of a blossoming romance. The scenes are breathtaking, ans the character designs were simply amazing. I can't even count the amount of saved photos I have from this single book. The art is what I strive to achieve. It encourages me. It whispers in my ear, "If you work hard, you might just be able to draw as well as this!" If I never encountered this series, I don't know what to say. I definitely wouldn't be screaming at the computer to give me faster updates that's for sure. But it's always worth the wait. An epic chapter every month, and beautiful art that just takes my breath away. I sincerely hope you decide to read this, I would definitely recommend it to everyone! And hey, here's a link to a piece of the art if you're curious about that, here's Lin Ling:https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-63_O77oLQuA/WPzDW4GrzlI/AAAAAAAAAq8/m4R3BXBC6UA9513rLLN604lu1pow-IoWQCL0B/h1473/2017-04-23.jpg~ella

@coldrain Oh my goodness, I have no words! ;o; I just wanted to share my thoughts with people and never thought I'd make it this far! ❤️ Thank you so much! Good luck to everyone who made it so far!My favorite time of the year is when winter slowly fades into spring. (Which is coincidentally, right now!) I love winter because of the clear night sky and the holiday cheer, but it is way too cold for me! Spring is great, because I get to see cherry blossoms bloom right outside my window. But, I have pollen allergies, which means that I'll spend the majority of springtime sneezing and sniffling. So the short time when the spring breeze slowly blows away the coldness of winter is like paradise to me! When I go outside during this time I get to smell the sweet and bitter scent of... I'm not sure what. I think it's a mixture of wistfulness and sorrow about times that weren't too great. The soft breeze kind of pats me behind my back, and I feel comfort. As meaningless this time of the year may be to some people, I really enjoy it and use this time up to my fullest. Because this time of the year is so short, it makes me like it even more. Springtime is a new beginning and a fresh start to me, and winter is the end. This short time is what links the beginning and the end together, and that's why it's so special to me.Aah, I kind of wrote what I thought without any plans! Please understand the unorganized mess of a paragraph I wrote :')

@coldrain Can't belive I made it through... XD Good luck to everyone who made it through!! ❤️Well, my favourite time of the year is Christmas, since everyone is a WHOLE lot more relaxed and the family is TOGETHER and for once in an year, *cough* no siblings *cough* FIGHT. Because throughout the year, parents have work and we have school, and being in financial distress, we're always worrying about bills and rent and all that, so everyone is wound up and stressed but then along comes Christmas and we finally get good quality family time ❤️ Either we go out for a movie or a night out but we do it every single year and everyone is happy so yeah ❤️ It may not snow in Australia, but at least we have presents to look forward to XD Everyone is just... a whole lot happier in Christmas, so it's like a new beginning to the new year (even though it's a few more days) and it's something short of magical when we all put up the christmas tree and turn the lights off (it has these little lights that change color every few seconds) and all the decorations are up and friends came over and exchange gifts... ❤️

@coldrainAh sorry I was off for a couple days ; - v -)Autumn is definitely my favourite time of the year. No pollen allergies, no blizzards, and no scorching hot sun. None of that. Just fresh, crisp air, and mesmerising sights of the changing of season. The leaves change colour and slowly drift to the ground, and with every step you just hear that satisfying crunch underneath you. There's an amazing view of the trees and you just see miles and miles of reds, oranges and yellows. It's inspirational. It always makes me think about how thankful I am, even if some things haven't been going well. Sometimes I just look into that distance and wonder about things. How the year will continue. How the new year will start. I suppose you could say autumn is like my starting point - my "beginning of the new year". And as those leaves silently drift down, I know that a good year is coming.Thank you for letting me make it this far >///< I had a lot of fun writing these small paragraphs, even though it does take me a couple days to think about what I'm going to write about ; - v -) Good luck to everyone ❤️~ella

@coldrainAh. Sorry for the late reply. I needed to think about the question a bit. 😋I'll just start with a general statement. My favourite day of the year would be every single day. While it is true that life can be monotonous, every single day is unique. The conversations you have with your friends will never happen in the exact same way just as the music you listen to will not be played in the same order. Your meals and what you do at school, in my case, are always different. But if I were to choose a time of the year to be my favourite, it would probably a new beginning like the the start of school or summer vacation, but I think that I'll go with the start of New Year. At the start of the year, we often have a week where we visit friends and eat dinner with them, but because of school, this is often limited to the weekend, however my family and I manage to do most of the activities on those days. We usually watch the Chinese broadcast of the Spring Festival. It's amazing! With all the colours and outfits and singing, drama, and dance! There's even some martial arts in there too. Well actually, all my family except my brother. I'm pretty sure that the only part he likes about the New Year is the money and the food. Hehe. Can't say that he's the only one, but I also like visiting friends. That would probably be one of my favourite times of the year.Edit: Realizes that I'm the last one. Curses! Listened to way to much music. See status.
