Hello Everyone! Today in Japan is the Tanabata festival also known as the Star festival. The Star festival celebrates two star lovers by the name of Altair and Vega or known by their Japanese names as Orihime and Hikoboshi. According to the story, Altair and Vega are separated by heaven's river (the milky way). One night a year (7/7) are they able to cross the river and meet each other.
Ameba Pigg has released many star festival items and if you are wondering why they are priced at 777, now you know! The seventh month, seventh day. Hmmm...we aren't so lucky are we? For the 1st anniversary event, most items were priced at 111!
Who would pass up the chance to possibly have your wish(es) granted? I surely didn't want to miss the chance and neither did ten.ten.! ten.ten. wrote her wish upon her tanzaku paper and made a wish! *cough* to be noticed by a certain someone. *cough*
To celebrate, many people take strips of paper and write their wishes upon them and hang them from bamboo branches. It's very simple! This is what I did!

| make sure to be add strings to the papers! |

Wherever you are, happiness isn't too far; simply wish upon a star.
There are millions upon billions, they'll make them come true, they're just waiting for
you!
-ten.ten.
