How I Spent My Weekend

Wow, Livejournal's bugging out on me. It's like being on tumblr again.

Anyway, this weekend was interesting. Went around London for a day, which kinda made me miss having a travelcard. Getting out and about is good, but also the money needed is... not so good. I checked my bank balance, and... actually it wasn't all that bad. I'm gonna renew the travelcard. You know, in January, when the Christmas shopping has died down. And maybe buy myself a pizza or new clothes or game or something nice. You know, to treat myself for being good and not spending money. That makes sense, right?

But yeah, walking around London was nice, and I even got some writing done, so even if I didn't do all I wanted to, it was still pretty good. Today, I've mostly been rearranging my room while I've got the space to work on it, and looks like tomorrow I'm gonna buy a cheap chest of drawers or something to finally sort out my clothes storage problems. But more on that when the job is done!

Finally, I discovered some news the other day that was on the line between bizarre and hilarious, so that was certainly an experience. But again, more on that, later!

Sayaka and Ahiru

So I've been trying my hand at fanart recently, and turns out I'm still pretty bad at drawing! Still, I'm actually pretty pleased with how some of them have been going, even though I'm still mostly at the sketching stage. Anyway, I thought I'd post something here, as I might as well have something to show for it, so I present this! A combination of two of my favourite magical girls, Sayaka wearing a cross between her outfit and Princess Tutu's!



Yeah, it's bad. But hey, without practice, none of us are going to improve! Or something like that!

Love Live 10

You know, I'm not sure I really have a lot to say about this series. It isn't as plot heavy as Princess Tutu, and I guess I'm not fangirling over it as much as certain other non-plot heavy series, at the moment at least. Which isn't to say it's bad, just I don't have much to say about it.

Beach episode, as predicted last time, and we get a bit more character development. We're at Maki's house, but Maki isn't as keen to get involved in having fun with the others, as that's her way. The characters generally are getting more used to being around each other as well, and we got a few good moments. Nico trying to one up everything was pretty entertaining, as was the pillow fight.

So.. I guess this is a post to say I don't have much to post? I'm probably going to hold off on these until I actually have something to say, probably a season 1 retrospective or something. Or if something happens I want to comment on. I started with the post per episode for a series I generally had a lot more to say about, and kinda carried it over, that probably wasn't a great idea. Not that it's a bad show, it knows what it is and it does it reasonably well. It's fun.
