School starts on Monday for me, so for the next few days I'm going to be working on getting through the huge stack of books sitting on my nightstand!
I'm going to sleep as much as I can! I don't even want to think about how early I have to wake up.
My son went to school, so I didn't do much with those last days but enjoy him being home.
Hi
As I don't go to school not have kids that go to school I don't have anything special planned for these days, but just go to work.
I'll re-read a book I'd wanted to re-read for a long time
I just spent most of my summer days reading! That's what we all love to do, right? Thanks for the giveaway!
Be lazy and not do a thing. :D
I like to read as many books as I possibly can, because once college starts there's assignments to do, and study books to read! ;)
Going to disneyland :D
Going to disneyland :D
I am wishing for some peace and quiet , maybe I will hold off in my room until school begins. :)
It doesn't really affect me, so for the end of the season, I'm just enjoying the sunshine while I still can =) x
Probably wear my hoodie for the whole last week of winter as I'll most likely miss it terribly when summer rolls around.
xx

My planning, i will try to read as much as possible and to finish the review on those book because the beginning of the school year is always busy and i need timde to adjust
Thanks for the contest, and I agree gift cards are the best!
Thanks for doing this! I'm planning on just chilling until I head to university in the fall :)
I want to spend time with my friends on the beach:)
Thank you:)
I am going to try and finish a couple of books before the season ends :)
I'm just going to relax and spend the rest of my time reading. :)
I don't go to school anymore nor do I have kids who does... but if I did, I would spend my last days of freedom reading! :)

We've got some friends and relatives coming over for an end-of-summer party. That's our traditional end before school starts.
I'll have my mini vacations. Thank you for the int giveaway :)
We have a bunch of friends and relatives coming over for our End-of-Summer Party. That's the traditional end of hot weather and start of school.
Reading a book :)
I'm planning on relaxing, reading, and writing. Thanks for the giveaway.
I'm simply enjoying just being lazy. I work as high school teacher, so I try to avoid all teen in ten miles radius. :)
Read and relax. I can't get a lot of free time, so I'll enjoy it as much as I can
I'll be preparing for school, I need to sign up for university courses, buy school supplies, declare majors. My last few days of freedom are spent stressing out. ><
I will relax, read a good book and go shopping
the end of summer effects me because of lots of residents where I work start to head south for the winter and so the office becomes more quiet
All school supplies and uniforms are all ready purchased. Physical, drug testing and orientation (for my oldest) are completed all that is left is meet the teacher for my youngest. So I am going to take my girls to the aquarium on Monday and relax the rest of the week!
I'm going to swim and read as much as I can :D And go on some trips with my boyfriend :)
We went to the pool and have been house sitting for our last few days before the kids went back to school. :) Were going to branson here soon and spending the weekend with the family on the boat and i have got friends driving up for labor day weekend. :) Really looking forward to that. ;-)
I'm gonna read a lot, write some reviews on my blog, surf on the internet and sleep ^^
Thanks for the giveaway !
Probably read a ton more books, party with my friends and just enjoy the last month or so before school..
i think i will just relax with a good book, its raining
I read -- any season!!
Am comparatively a new blogger & am looking for guidance. Would love it if you would drop by my blog and give me your feedback.

My father's been having some health issues, so I'll just be happy to get him feeling better. Otherwise, I'll try to work in a day trip or two, and get caught up on my reading!
eai(at)stanfordalumni(dot)org
I will soak up the last days of being able to run around outside and play with my toddler before it gets too cold to spend hours outside
Try to enjoy my last bit of freedom. I usually end up doing so by reading in the garden or going swimming at the pool ^^
I'm just trying to get outside as much as possible and get through my large stack of books to read:)
thank you :)
i don't plan anything. i'll just relax with a good book.
Nothing really, but I might get a different job.
Sleep as much as I can! And read of course!
The last days of summer I happen to be celebrating my 2 year wedding anniversary with my hubby. So whatever surprise he has cooked up in that brain of his is what we will be doing.
School starting back doesn't affect me because I'm taking summer classes. My last days of the summer will actually be my busiest, because I have finals for my summer class, as well as move-in for the dorms (where I work as a desk receptionist.) I really wish I had time to do something fun, but I don't. Oh well; I'll have fun once I graduate. :)
I'd love to take one more day trip to Port Credit and have a picnic with my husband and the kids. Just eat, relax, read, and play! Thanks for the giveaway!
I don't have any plans for the rest of the summer, which means I will be getting LOTS of reading done!!
i hope to get in a fishing trip before summer is out.
I want to clean up my TBR list and read more! :D
Uhm... Freedom for me starts the day my child goes back to school. Just being honest ;)
Tracy Awalt Juliano

I'm going to a block reunion for the street my hubby grow up on
I want to spend time with my friends and read! My to-read list is too long :D
Awesome giveaway, thank you very much for making it internationally (:
A trip to the Titanic exhibit.
Thanks for participating in the hop and for the giveaway opportunity.
Not doing anything special. Just trying to get ready and get some routines down!
thanks for the giveaway!
Read some more books!
I will be setting up my classroom!
Just enjoying the lack of schedule for a little while longer
Our summers are very hectic, so when the girls go back to school that's kind of when I get a break and get to relax and read a little more than usual instead of trying to keep the peace with two teenagers in the house LOL...
Spending lots of time with my family and reading.
Try to catch up on my beauty sleep, and of course read.
I already started school!
Thanks for this giveaway!
Enjoying my man's cooking before the new semester starts up and the kitchen duties return to me.
I am spending the remaining days getting ready to teach - lesson plans, and finishing some house projects.
I plan on reading my recently acquired books, hanging out with my friends and hopefully having a wonderful Eid.
Thanks for the giveaway~! ♥
I'm not really sure, I think I would hunker down and play video games and read all day long.
It's really hot here and business is really slow this time of year. I'm just waiting for the heat to moderate a little and for business to kick into gear like it always does in September.
I always spend the last week of August on vacation in the mountains in Vermont! Much different then NJ, and you can see the stars!
Well, since I do not have kids and never intend to have any (just not my thing) I do not have anything specific to do...but I'll keep on reading as many TBR books as I can.
Thank you for the chance to win! :)

I'm planning to spend as much time swimming with the kids as possible and enjoy the sunshine!
I'll be trying to get as much reading done as I can.
Read a lot :)
I'm going to attempt to study and set a date to take my GRE's so that i can go back to school for my masters, I have been way to lazy with it!
I'll probably be reading and hanging out with friends before going back to school.
One EPIC clean up of the house from top to bottom, before school starts again because in addition to school I work two jobs.
we are going to buy more school supplies. fun fun.
hollybwrightatcomcastdotnet
I'm going to try to take as many naps as I can before I get super busy!
For me it will be work. I do not have a summer vacation any longer, so I just try to stay cool and read good books when I am not working :) Thank you for the fun.
Sleeping and more reading. :)
Hopefully I'll manage to clean my TBR list even more! :)
No special plans here.
Just relax ;)
My exams are staring soon, so before that I'll simply read a lot. There are lots of books I want to read in the next few weeks...
Nothing special
I plan to read away the days :)
I am going to read a lot and try to cook something new and tasty.
Sleep! :)
Kids are all grown so I am already "free" but looking forward to my grandson starting 4 year old kindergarten!!
I still need to take my daughter to get some clothes for school. Other than that, just waiting for the heat to cool down!
I'll be celebrating my birthday!
shop, swim and read
School is going to be a pain! Thanks for the great giveaway!
As far as what I plan to do, we recently moved to TX from FL and are staying in an extended-stay hotel. Our plan is to find a more permanent single-family rental.
My dream rental would be a ranch home on a cul-de-sac with a community pool and playground. And the icing on the cake would be if it's walking distance to the library.
I'll read and listen to my favorite bands.
Thanks for the giveaway!
I am going to try and read some more before I have to read text books! thanks so much for the giveaway!
I don't have any plans
My kids are already back in school! I enjoy the few days I get to myself,lol! Thanks
I go back to grad school on the 27th, so I'm spending my last days working at the library and reading. I'll get some yard work and Zumba in there too!
Probably just reading as many books as I can before homework sets in.

Since it's still Winter, I plan to spend as much time as I can lying in bed reading books.
I work at a school so the end of summer will always mean the end of my freedom :( I just enjoy the time off with family and friends and catch up on reading and writing :) thanks for the giveaway
Hmm, I'm trying to not think about any work stuff at home since I'm a teacher and soon will have grading to do.
Catch up on reading.

Not much...stay around the house, relax...
I'd like to relax a little more. :)
I will be having the last barbecue of summer!
I'm finishing up my last day of summer by reading! Thanks :)
Reading of course! :)
This will be the first time I'm not going back to school, because I graduated a few months before. I kind of miss school already :(
We just got back from vacation last night and school starts tomorrow, so we're all relaxing today :)
Trying to take a day off or two, to spend some time with the kids. My husband is a school teacher, so I rely on him to "deal" with summer. I so love being able to get up early and sneak out of the house before all the fussing starts. I hate fighting with the kids to get going during the school year!
I'm gonna read as much as I can before I have to go back to those boring college books... and maybe try to lose a few pounds. LOL
Just keeep reading! :)
Thanks for the giveaway!

polin037@gmail.com
I sill have about a month to go until I start school but I don't know what I'll do when the time comes. I tend not to think about it all that much because I have so much on my to do list for the new school year that I don't know where to begin. I'll probably be making last minute preparations. Thanks for the great giveaway and for making it international!
no plans, just enjoy holiday and reading book :)
We're hoping to get a camping trip in.
School already started for us, but we caught a movie and got some frozen yogurt in the days before the girls had to go back :)
School is on week 2 now, so I totally miss reading and sleeping -.- Thanks for the amazing giveaway!!
My son is only 10 months old, so now school yet... though I do still enjoy the summer! Both my birthday and my husband's fall during the summer, so we have lots of parties. :) I'm going to miss those for sure. We are going to enjoy the beautiful weather while it's still here, and before we know it, it will be fall. :)
