Welcome to the End of Summer Bingo! I've cohosted a lot of bingos here, but this is my first solo run.
The end of summer is weird and special time of year that is an often neglected theme. It's a magical time of year that seems to drive us all crazy. Everything is influx. We're anticipating what is to come and dreading what we're about to loose. Everything seems to be ending and starting anew in the same breath.
You get all the trappings of summer, but with intense rushing.
Nature seems to be showing off its brightest, most intense colors before fall takes over.
It can be the hottest, most sweltering times of year. Or the winds may bluster in as a warning of the approaching fall. The sky seems full of electricity, sometimes literally with late summer storms.
Everyone's cramming in one last vacation or one last day to play outside before the weather changes.
Kids seem full of extra energy before they get locked up in classes once again.
Some are anticipating that coming school year- to see friends again, to start new adventures away from home for the first time, or maybe just happy to be free of kids during the day again.
The nights are still long, but shrinking.
Summer romances are ending.
Cramming book reading in before classes start or before vacation ends and you won't have time.
Deciding what you'll wear the 1st day of school.
The list goes on and on. It's a giant flurry of activity, most of which is ironically supposed to be relaxation.
Feel free to use any prompt how they speak to you.
As usual, there will be banners at the end of the month. Also, fills can be made of anything; fic, poetry, vid, pod fics, recs or hand crafts. Art, icons, and wallpapers are nice as well. If you think of any medium not listed, that’s cool too.
Anything goes this month. The only limit is your imagination.
There is a public card at the bottom of this post, or feel free to make your own here.
You can mix or match any of the prompts below or pick your own if you like.
Most of all, I hope you have fun!
