What I bought in Japan~

Hello again!
Today I will show you the Idol stuff, that I bought in Japan. Last time I didn't buy a lot, so this time I guess I went a bit overboard :'D But it was worth the money!!
So let's see:


I bought three Idol magazines. The one on the top left has a big Nogi special with is why I bought it.
The top right one has Momusu featured!
And then I finally bought my first magazine with Jurina on the cover! <3



Those are the posters from the magazine. I love them so much (especially the Naachan poster) *-*


A lovely CD haul, don't you think? *-*
I got the Syachihoko and SKE CDs very cheap from Book off.
I was very happy to find the Indies debut of Kobushi Factory.
And of course I had to buy AKB's new single.
Momusu's single was released when I was there, so I bought two copies of them..


That's why I also got a shop bonus for Momusu! 
Only one, because I bought the other version from the H!P store.


I also bought C-ute's and Angerme's new albums.


I didn't get the C-ute bonus, but the Angerme bonus (which is beautiful by the way).. 
even though Angerme's CD was released back in November.. Isn't that funny?


And then of course I had to buy Lilium and Sayu's graduation concert <3


My Team K haul from the AKB48 shop.
Jurina clearholder, Jurina postcard and Jurina Cookie box/ Moneybox (now guess my Oshi XD)
Tanochan postcard and the Team K towel. 
Finally I bought this towel!! 
I was really angry at myself for not buying it last time, but not it's mineeeee!!


My H!P store haul (which mostly consits of Duu)
Kudo clearfile and photo, Kudo pen, Kudo Gatcha and Kudo christmas thingy (with a photo of her on the back).. Even the Shop lady was somehow smiling at me for buying almost only Duu stuff XD
Of course I had to buy something from Riho (her outfit from the 2012 spring tour; also with a photo on the back) and the 2016 calendar with a aphoto!


Now about the gatcha. I really got Duu totally BY LUCK!!! Well, actually my friend got her for me, because I am so unlucky.. But damn, if this isn't destiny XD


And random photo haul from Idol shops.
Wada, DuuxRiho (cries in a corner), Chiyu (+Yuzu and Yuzuki), False (<3), Duu, 
MeiMei (cries more), Sasshi, Sae (dies) and Jurina!
Most of my favourite Idols <3

So, that is my Idol haul!
I actually really didn't bring a lot more from Japan.. Just a few clothes, sweets, souveniers and this:


Marie hand cream, Tsum Tsum Marie chopsticks and Jiji!
As you can see, I quite love cats XD
Well, I've been a Marie fan since I was a kid, and I have lots of goods of her..
Perhaps I will do an Marie post in the future ;D

So that's it for today.. Of course I will unbox some of the CD's and I'm still working on the 2015 best of posts and some reviews.. :D
Bye, bye~

My trip to Japan (December 2015 - January 2016)

Helloooo!!
I've been back from Japan for a week now.
It was simply an amazing journey with lots of fun so I want to talk about it a bit. I love Japan a lot and this time I once again started to love the country even more.

I went with two friends and we were mainly in Kyoto and Tokyo. I already went to both cities, but Kyoto was just a 1-day trip in 2014 before. So, of course I didn't see a lot but this time we were there for 4 days. We saw a lot of temples and shrines. Of course, we also didn't see everything, but it was very nice nevertheless. I especially liked the Fushimi Inari and the Kinkakuji. Those two were really breathtaking!




In Tokyo we mainly went shopping and enjoyed the flair of the big city.
This is also were I mostly spent my money for Idol stuff (I guess I will do an extra post about what I bought)^^'
I went to a lot of Idol stores. I really love the official H!P and AKB48 stores, they just make me so happy <3 Unofficial Idol stores are also cool, but often way to small and crowded and I just like the feeling of being in an official store more if you get what I mean. XD





I also saw the Fuji-san for the first time, which was really really cool *-* One day I want to climb it!

And of course I ate lots and lots and lots of awesome foods!! (C'ant forget the Maid-Café, it was soo cute!!!)

Okonomiyakiiiiii ! (Now one of my favourite foods!)

Tanuki Udon

Awesome Apple Cinnamon Pancakes

Japanese breakfast (with Natto!!!!! I liked it!)

Gyoza and Ramen *-*

Moe Moe Omu Raisu

Cauliflower Sushi (yummy) and Salmon Cheese Sushi (BEST THING EVER!)

Nice Okinawa Cake


Maid Cafe sweets (yes we went twice :'D)

Now I'm hungry,, But it's past midnight, so I will go to sleep now.
This was one of the best journeys of my life and I can't wait to study in Japan starting from later this year! :3

Hello 2016

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Wow, I can't believe another year has passed already. We have now 2016 and time is flying even faster than ever. It has once again been a very special year and a lot of things happened.
The Idol world has also been very excting and especially lately there have been a lot of graduations and graduation announcements.


Last years predictions:

A lot of middle generation members to announce their graduation (yep, really a lot!!)
Takamina wins election or get into Kami7 (She got into Kami7 again, which is awesome!)
Kashiwagi wins election (well, she got 2nd, which is also cool. Still wishing for a Yuki center song)
No big shuffle (I WAS WRONG. Well, it wasn' thaaat big, but still)
Promotion for AKB's anniversary everywhere (yeah, that was quite nice)
Some older graduated members to come back for a performance of AKB's anniversary (yeeeees, so cool)
Not as many graduations in SKE as in the last two years (weeeell, sorta? But there were still a few ones)
SKE48 to release their second album (STILL WAITING!)
Momusu to get a change style-wise (they experimenced a bit, but still have a similar style)
12th gen to be awesome (yep, they are!)
Berryz to get the farewell they deserve (they got it!)
C-ute to not disband (Yesss.. hopefully they will last loong)
Angerme to not suck (THEY ARE PERFECT)
Momoclo to release something big again (the Kiss collab was pretty big, but except for that..)
Team Syachihoko continue tobe adorable (Always <3)
Babymetal to release something (still not.. but a new album will be released netx year)
More cross-overs between groups (Yeeeeesssss.. especially thanks to FNS *-*)
