Image result for aikatsu lucky train

Aikatsu songs
...Japanese version of the Music Idol anime series, my favourite being Lucky Train by Nono and Risappe-it always makes me feel good!





Image result for Winx Club Butterflix album

Winx Club Butterflix album
English version
I put Tynix on repeat while I read with family to block out the TV...





Image result for aikatsu stars aikatsu step

Aikatsu Stars songs
Japanese version of the new music idol anime series -I have barely listened to it physically but Aikatsu Step is stuck in my head 24/7 at the moment! Good thing I now like this anime...









Watched

Image result for holby city serena resigned

Holby City
Medical drama, English version
10/10E
(Brilliant episode, nearly cried when Serena resigned as she is hilarious, but thankfully she retracted the resignation. While Zosia annoys me, I felt sorry when her bi-polar is outed to the public...)





Image result for Aikatsu Stars lola

Aikatsu Stars
Music Idol anime, Japanese version
10E/10E
(After multiple rewatches I finally love this spin off! I get annoyed by the English name Laura used instead of Lola which is more accurate - Lola's bubblegum pink hair is cute, and her smugness makes me giggle.)





Image result for clannad after story tomoya

Clannad After Story
Slice of Life anime, English version
10E/10E
(Nagisa and Tomoya are living at her parents, since Tomoya needs space from his father...)




Image result for Love Live School Idol Project eli

Love Live School Idol Project:  Season 2
Music Idol anime, Japanese version
10E/10E
(I finally can remember all the characters names! The ones in Muse, but that's real progress for me. Love them all but Eli and Maki stand out right now.)





 Image result for Aikatsu sakura

Aikatsu
Music Idol anime, Japanese version
REWATCH - 10E/10E
(I loved watching Sakura debut with Aoi, Ran, Ichigo, Yurika and Otome in a super cute fantasy themed outfit!)










Craft, games and more
This week saw me do a marathon embroidery session 6hrs saw me make a lot of progress on my alphabet sampler!




I've done some work on a crochet blanket too...






I forgot to take photos of any food I made, but I did have a delicious bubblegum flavour ice cream milkshake at Pizza Hut!

Games I'm continuing with minipets, despite a glitch which has being ready so early that I had to lose them then reorder them since they disappear. Annoying!


I've played a bit of Playfirst Diner Dash, and started a super cute Hello Kitty game-at the time of typing this meme I haven't played it, but I am on Sat.
