Final BBBC post

I will have to make this short, since I'm sick in RL and just want to go crawl in bed.

I had fun doing the challenge. It made me blog which I had previously not really done. And I may just change my blog to me rambling about sl :)

I have really no clue what the hair fair is, that starts tomorrow I think, but I keep getting notices about it and I am excited since most of my money spent is on hair :) I have already seen a few styles I like, but I will have to limit myself otherwise I will have to rent a smaller house lol.

And thanks to anyone who has read any part of my blog, I have enjoyed reading the other blogs.

BBBC 5-Shape it up

Anyway today is post anything you want day so.........

Last night was the BBBC party and I went because I love dancing anywhere in SL. Although I think the whole concept of rave went over my head because I was terrible overdressed (I love my Bingo dress, if you go to the Elate store visit the tiny store attached) but whatever, I had fun dancing anyway. The place was really prett- so many colors and I should have taken more pictures of the actual party but I was being lazy last night.


Dancing
I just wish I wasn't so damn shy sometimes and would have talked and actually met people, oh well. I guess if you normally shy in RL you can't really bust out and be all crazy social in SL.

For the past few weeks I have been trying to find a new shape because about a month ago when I was talking to someone I realized the shape I have is the default one given to you when you start. I messed around with it in the beginning and then I doubt I did anything else really much. I think I look cute I guess. I had tried shapes here and there that I got but I never cared for them-they either made me look like amazon woman or the face looked ugly to me. I don't care for the eyes in any of the shapes-they are small, I like my big eyes.

Last week a store was having a sale so I was trying on demos, well dumbass me wasn't paying much attention and accidently bought the shape and the not the demo (thankfully the shapes were on sale for $150L). I tried it on and it was all right. I can't find the lm for the place, the lm with the shape brings me to houses to rent, so sorry but it's called Lelutka.


Another shape
Oof what a bad picture, it is a pretty shape and I'm sorry that I can't find more information.


Last night I decided to buy one of the Cupcakes grab bags mostly for the skin since I loved the lip color and I got a shape, cute yeah but I don't know.


Cupcake Shape

Altered cupcake shape
I messed with the eyes a bit, but nothing else really.


I always seem to go back to my default one.

My shape
Although I guess my shoulder are too wide :)-oh well.

Random thoughts-BBBC 4

I think I may skip the next qeustion because I honestly have no clue who I would change places with. I'm afraid if I say someone I don't know it would seem like I'm stalking them. So I just blab a bit.

I think I'm going to start a picture a day post because well typing long posts just doesn't cut it for me. Mostly because I have so much RL to do. I'm taking two summer school classes this summer and they are kicking my butt. But I do always seem to pop into sl for a bit to check notices and ims. Pictures may be fun-a way to remember things in SL.

I think I have about another year to play around in SL than situations in RL will make me stop. I might still be able to but not as often. I don't mention SL much to people in my RL-it doesn't come up. I told a friend about the U2 concert b/c she's a fan but she just thought it was weird. My brother knows about SL and signed up for an account a few months before me but he didn't care for it so his account sits unactive.

Anyway I'll post a few pictures of one of my favorites places in SL-Apollo. It was one of the first places I went to SL and in the beginning I would spend so much time there because I thought it was beautiful.

Sunset

I love sunsets in SL-it's just one of those things I don't know why :)


Oh and I don't know why my font in the post below is all big-weird crap like that is always happening to me-miss yeah I know how to html code.

Flowers flowers everywhere-BBBC 3

I have to make this short b/c I have so much rl stuff to do-

You've been given a sim of your very own to use for free for one year. However, there are 3 rules. It cannot be residential, it cannot be commercial, and it has to be open to the public. What do you do with it?

Simple-a sim full of FLOWERS-fields and fields of them all different colors and types. There will also be paths and places to sit and I would make sure to stream nice music (I have been to some nice-seem to be peaceful places that have techno blaring ick) Dance balls for couples and even single ones b/c I love busting a move by myself-why do you need a partner?

BBBC Post 2

Hello all :)

Today's question is: What is your perfect SL day?

Well like most I would say no lag, no crashes, no stupid people (that last one would make my week).

Other than that-a sale at one of my favorite stores would help too.

But for the most part just spending the say listening to music and playing with Toby. I don't know why Toby makes me laugh but he does. Hmm that may be a little sad lol.

Take last night for instance I was bumming around and earlier in the day I had grew Toby so he was HUGE.


Me and Toby

I love that I can carry him around on my shoulder but apparently not if he grows, he's bigger than me.
BIG Toby
Toby's from A.I.F. by the way.
Toby back to normal

Finding cute things also makes it a nice day in SL. Like this hat I found-see I'm a horrible picture taker b/c I probably should have shown the flower on the side. I love flowers, I have yet to really find a really nice place full of flowers (so if you have a landmark send it my way-I'll probably thank you and talk you're ear off though because I'm shy but say hello and I won't shut up).


Sitting outside my house

And one final picture because I think it's cute-

Aww cute :)

BBBC Post 1


Eh so yeah I figured WTF and will joine the challenge :) I'm a stalker for alot of SL blogs I just never comment or if I do I comment anonomous-Why I have no clue I think I'm too shy.

So here we go.....
How long have you been on blogger?

Well besides a personal RL blog which I had a few years ago-only since March. I started the blog to highlight some pretty places in SL which may be interesting to librarians (I joined SL taking a library science class, but have ventured way far from anything library). My orginal class included a wiki which I have been borrowing from and taking pictures of the locations since my professor has everyone join SL for her class every semester. But I haven't posted much I know-freebie clothes seem to take up too much of my time and also homework in RL. I'm thinking about just changing the blog and just show random things-like Toby my SL dog who loves sleeping in objects around my house....


Yeah he's in a tree (I don't call myself the best photo taker-I have like 30 of him in my furniture around my house and yeah when I talk to friends it usually includes me going where the hell is Toby)




Has it enriched your life?

Hmm well I don't think I have posted enough-so no. I have gone to a few cool places :)

All right looking forward to a fun week :)

Purple for RFL

Yesterday (June 1) was Paint Second Life Purple day for Relay for Life (RFL).  RFL is HUGE  in SL it all started about 3 months ago too and will end in a relay in July.  As of today people in SL have donated over $36,000,000.  There are donation kiosks all over the place and many stores put clothes in venders that people can buy and support RFL.

Anyway here is what the website said about yesterday.

On the first day of June, if you are going for a stroll or if you are having a party with friends, wear a purple ribbon, toss on purple clothes, turn your house lavendar even - and yell out to the world that you support the fight in against cancer!

This idea came out of a Relay For Life Group Chat, where the subject was about giving support to those who are in the waiting stage in their fight against cancer, pointing out how hard and scary that part is and how support from others helps so much easy, just knowing others are there.

When Jasmine, Zoie, Tari, Kat, Nikkie, Spaci, Jane - relay volunteers - started talking about how in real life whole towns would turn purple to show support for the fight against cancer; they decided it would be an awesome idea to do the same here in SL. Not everyone has money to give or even time to spend, but everyone can wear purple.

COME ON! Purple Day doesn't cost one red cent or one virtual linden. Instead you have the chance to show your support for the fight against cancer just by helping to turn SL purple.  Let's show RL that we are ONE WORLD and WE SUPPORT EACH OTHER!

Purple for RFL
Toby got in the action too :)
Purple for RFL

I am apart of a group for RFL, however I am probably not doing enough to support the group as I should.  I have done RFL in RL and absolutely loved it.
