Announcing... Liquid Sunshine - Giveaway & Blog Party!

ALL DONE! CLICK HERE FOR WINNERS!


Well, this is just too exciting! The much-anticipated 500 Followers giveaway and blog party is beginning tomorrow at 6 AM EST. The only requirements for entering is that you must be a follower of HorseFeathers and you must fill out the Q&A (posted tomorrow), then link to your post/twitter/whatever you posted it on using the Linky List (also posted tomorrow).


The prizes total over $300. Um, yeah. Over $300, and there will be no less than TEN winners.

Because I am telepathic and know what you guys are thinking:
NO, THIS IS NOT AN APRIL FOOL'S JOKE!
Ten amazing people decided to donate $300 worth of prizes to our giveaway.
Thank you, amazing people!

The giveaway/blog party is called "Liquid Sunshine" because of how April showers are supposed to herald in the spring. Plus I really, really like the letter Q.

Ready to start planning your answers? Here's the questions... and don't forget to enter all through next week! A new post will go up with the Linky (be sure to blog-hop!) and the ten winners will be randomly chosen from the Linky entries.

----------------------------------------------------------- 
 You can answer all of these or just a few... it's your choice. :)
  • Favorite season, and why?
  • How would you describe your personal style?
  • What's one weird thing you can do? (The stranger the better!)
  • Rain or shine?
  • Confession time... what's a flaw of yours?
  • Favorite music?
  • Have you ever made a decision you instantly regretted? What was it?
  • Who do you admire/look up to?
  • You've just won an unlimited lifetime supply of... what?
  • If you were an animal, what would you be?
  • If you knew you were going to die in a year, what would you do with your time?
  • You're now a gazillionaire... where do you go to spend your money?
  • Classical music: love it or hate it?
  • Phobias?
  • Hop on a plane and go live somewhere for a year... where is it, and why?
  • Are you an extrovert or an introvert?
  • Would you/do you perform on stage?

Okay everyone! The party post goes up tomorrow... *squee*

xoxo!

PS: Today is my dad's birthday... no joke... every birthday we give him some awful gift then say "April Fool's" and hand him the real one. Poor guy. :P

  1. Yay--how exciting! And today is my friend's birthday, and no-one ever believes her. Seriously, it would be a pretty long-running April Fool's, thirteen years of a pretend birthday...

  2. Oh goodness, I can't WAIT! Everybody knows how fun blog parties are and yes - I am most certainly one of those people. The questions look fun too! ^_^

  3. If I can do the strangest thing...do I win a prize? Because I can truthfully use my arms like a jump rope because I'm double jointed in my shoulders. (and that's no April Fool's Day joke)

    And I'm a bit confused...are the questions supposed to be answered as a tag on our blog, answered seperately in the comments, or answered all together in the comments?

    Can't wait for tomorrow. And I'm loving April
