Dear Second Life...

Ahh another note....

I know I haven't been online for a while b/c well I moved in w/ the SO and been doing other things. I have been logging on at least once a week. I think before this we had a pretty good relationship I was a daily logging in person for over a year and only stopped b/c my computer decided it wanted to die.

Anyway is me not logging on the reason you are slowly making my inventory disappear? First it was my shape THAT I WAS WEARING ok fine it was the skirt shape I molded but hmm I had been wearing it for months. Then the other day my favorite boots were missing and now today the hair I WAS WEARING is missing in every shade except the one I was wearing. Umm hello you think I enjoy what I'm wearing. why can't you make the ugly freebie clothes that are still in my inventory somewhere disappear. but NOOOOOOOO. It's bad enough none of my hair seems to look nice on me anymore (horrendous bald spots everywhere) but know things are going poof.

I'm clearing my cache hopefully that will work b/c I'm sure there's other things missing that I don't know :(

You are making things easier though for me to go f* you!

Banana hun where have you been? I still read blogs and love yours but no posts in forever! Hope all is well!

HAPPY REZ DAY!!

That's right this day deserves a caps title.

IT'S MY REZ DAY!! 2 YEARS BABY.

So yeah and I spent most of my 2nd year away from the game and I'm not on it much anymore, it just happened I was on today and remembered.

last year on my rez day I was working at Franks and living in my cabin that I decorated for fall/halloween. I met a few great friends and was having fun.

I wonder what the average time people spend in sl.

LOL such a downer, here's a picture of me today on my 2nd rez day. I was going to take a pretty picture somewhere in sl but I kept crashing so it's my house.

Hot right I know, this is the only hair that seems to rez on me. I have popped on here and there the past week to do the season's hunt and the cute hair from Tiny Bird will not rez on me for some reason, who the hell knows why.

So all in all a rather uneventful rez day for Amie.

I still remember my first day in SL-getting asked by a guy if his tattoos looked awesome, getting for asked for 'the sex' by some dude who didn't speak english, dressing in awful awful clothes that I scored for free, hanging out on Job Island getting free lindens from dancing and stalking a money tree-ahh fun fun.

In the early days I fell in love w/ Icing and my free shoes from Tesla, saved for some glasses and went to some really great events involving libraries (the whole reason why I joined sl). I went to music shows at the Gaslight and danced at Phat Cat's.

I don't regret one moment I've had in SL and have loved everyone I have met :)

little update

Haven't been in SL much lately. I figure I might as well just keep my rent until I run out of money in my account. I would recommend to all noobs to get a job in sl, if you are a cheap ass like me you will be swimming in the lindens. Sure I buy clothes every once in a while but freebies and dollarbies are a favorite of mine. I really only spend money on hair. It's how you live your SL I guess. Anyway from working at Franks for about 8 months I was swimming in Lindens and since I rent places where 400 was my max weekly I saved up a whole bunch so now I'm job free and don't have to put rl amie money into SL for now at least.

Anyway rl update I bought a car (first big purchase!), am moving in w/ the significant other and don't really have much time for SL. The comp. at the S.O. house doesn't like SL or haven't dl'd it mostly (maybe the S.O. doesn't like mostly :P) So since I spend 4 days here and there there I don't log in a lot. Plus I found a new game to be addicting to-SUPER POKE PETS. It's the stupidest thing ever, lame really but it keeps me occupied. The S.O. calls it the lame turtle game. Google it if you want to-spp not lame turtle game although something may pop up.

So where does this leave amie...well hell yeah I'm logging in for Belleza gifts b/c as I said earlier I'm super cheap and those skins are expensive :) Ivalde gifts are lovely, if Free Speerit ever comes back or Alchemy (does anyone remember that store, cutest things there), or ETD LOL I'll be the first there. Gotta wash my clothes somewhere so the parent's computer will have SL on it still.

If sl loaded my prims nicely maybe I would play more...

Say hi if I'm online.

Take care everyone love you bunches *mwah

Amie

What I'm up against

So my rant post was number 100-woo hoo :)

So anyway here is what I look like in SL today.

Yup hot right? Grr my glasses and shoes are not rezzing my bed is funky. I liked the second viewer somewhat b/c I seemed to crash less but is this what I'm getting now. Horrible.

Dear Second Life...

Why is there huge bald spots on my head when I wear hair that I have worn numerous times in the past so I know they don't belong there?

Why do my glasses look like I don't have a nose guard when the pictures on blogs make the glasses look normal?

Why don't my boots suddenly show my cankles when they haven't in the past 2 weeks I have been wearing them?

Why am I sticking around with you?

I downloaded 2.1 and have been having so much trouble with it. Things aren't rezzing, things look horrible, my prims suck-my rent ends in 19 days it might the end of Amie in SL. Things haven't been the same since I came back in June. I have 19 days to decide, well more than that but I just need to decide if I want to keep my house or become a log on once in a while person.

End emo post...

Ivalde's new gift

Have I told you I love Ivalde, I so do. I have since Noob days. I found Ivalde's outlet room purchased a cute outfit for a linden and I was hooked. For the past few months Ivalde has been giving out group gift, dresses for free heck ya!!

July's gift called Ellie reminded me of going on a picnic so I put on my dress put on my cowboy boots and tried to find a place that had a picnic blankets (that were not romantic apparently the thing to do in sl is take a date on a picnic so they all had couple poseballs).

I found a grill perfect for grilling burgers :)

And sat at the picnic table enjoying it

And finally I just sat and enjoyed the view

Ivalde's group cost 100L to join all the group gifts from Jan.-July are still there up for grabs.

Ivalde-http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Ivalde/186/86/24

In other things I think I'm a skin snob. I think I only look good in Belleza, Cupcakes look horrible on me and the Tuli skin I was wearing yesterday made me look like I had no lips. I really want to like Tuli but the skins look horrible on me.

I think I need to get the face emoter (read here) b/c I love my same bland expression in all my photos LOL. BEST BLOGGER EVER!!!

Love you all!

Now if I was a good blogger I would be wearing something from the store I took my picture at... but since I'm not... LOL

I logged in tonight to find a bunch of messages from the store ur.favorite.one. I found out about this store during the Gacha festival. It has cute flowery and girly clothes. Anyway the new store is super cute so I had to snap a pic of me on a swing.

How is it that the grass looks awesome but I look washed out LOL sigh damn crappy graphics card.

Anyway the store is cute and cheap so check it out. Sorry haven't been in much of SL/blogging mood lately. I did finally get into Truth though and my adorable is one of my purchases.

I've just been in a funk lately. I still haven't found a full time job and the library I work keeps jerking me around so getting a bit tired of it all. I know the economy will turn around someday (me trying to be hopeful b/c at least I have a job even if I work less than 20 hours a week SIGH!)

Sigh...Truth

I wake to a nc from Truth saying they are having a sale. Awesome right? If I could ever get into the sim. Oh well it goes until Sept. 9 so I should be able to get there sometime. At least the stuff never sells out. There goes all my money. I have like 6 months of hair releases I missed when my computer went crazy.

I haven't in sl much this week, it's just one of the times where I get bored of it all and don't feel like doing anything.

The heart wants what it wants...

So bumming around SL tonight I found a rather sad place called Perpetual Sunset, Well melancholy maybe. There's not much to the place. There's some spots to sit and books around the island that you can read. The place is black and gray mostly. There's also quotes around the island.

I can see someone coming and sitting after they broke up with someone.

And now the pretty picture of the night.

LOL My new Truth hair is gorgeous right.

Here's a poem from the island...

~~~~~~~~~ When We Two Are Parted ~~~ ~~~~~~

When we two parted

In silence and tears,

Half broken-hearted,

To sever for years,

Pale grew thy cheek and cold,

Colder thy kiss;

Truly that hour foretold

Sorrow to this.

The dew of the morning

Sank chill on my brow

It felt like the warning

Of what I feel now.

Thy vows are all broken,

And light is thy fame:

I hear thy name spoken,

And share in its shame.

They name thee before me,

A knell to mine ear;

A shudder comes o'er me

Why wert thou so dear?

They know not I knew thee,

Who knew thee too well:

Long, long shall I rue thee

Too deeply to tell.

In secret we met

In silence I grieve

That thy heart could forget,

Thy spirit deceive.

If I should meet thee

After long years,

How should I greet thee?

With silence and tears. ~ Lord Byron

Librarian!

In honor of my profession :)

And yes I do wear glasses.

Heard of this band-you should!

Jill Closing :(

Hey all-

Vacation was lots of fun, very hot, but fun. Glad to be back home :)

Anyway a store I found back in noob times is closing :( I wish I could tell you how I stumbled upon Jill but I don't remember. I remember stalking lucky boards for this.

And this (and yeah I'm SURE it fit that badly back then LOL)

Well anyway somewhere down the line I dropped the group who knows I blame LL (25 group limit) and I just forgot about the store.

The store is closing tomorrow Aug. 11. You still can join the group and get some free gifts-LOTS of gifts, shirts, bracelets, pants, dresses, tons of them.

I thought the girl next to me was a giant, which she was but she was standing on a couch.

and maybe buy something everything is 50% off I got this pretty dress for 45L.

My textures are being a beast tonight

And hell yeah I'm to lazy to tp somewhere for artsy pics, love my house :)

In other random thoughts-should I be flattered that every live act I see sings Amie? Sigh yeah it was super duper cool the first 100 times. LOL, I tip quite a bit but sometimes I just go to shows and do other things on the computer and not pay attention but after the song I feel obligated to tip. Maybe I just show up the same people.

Carnival Fun

I have a bit of a headache so this will be short.

Since I'm going on vacation tomorrow to the largest roller coaster park in the world!! I went to one in SL called Prim Hearts (I think I actually went to the place way back in noob times). I was looking for a roller coaster but didn't find one but the log ride is pretty close

And then I went on a slide

And finally the giant drop

Worst pics ever LOL oh well. I'm off to bed now have to get up early be back next week some time probably :)

Oh and my pants are another pair from Tutti Frutti!

Cute capris!!

Hey hey two days until vacation :)

So anyway bumming around SL and shopping spent way to much on clothes these past few days.

I got these really cute capris from Tutti Frutti from a Gacha 50L per chance. They are so adorable but they do show a bit butt crack which I'm little self conscience about but they are do dang cute.

Hello I'm sexy pose Amie

There are 6 types if you get some you don't like I'll trade :)

Anyway here's some pics from a place I found called Godelin.

Lots of fun things to do

I hanglided

Forgot to turn off my name and group Lol worst picture taker EVER!!

And swung on a rope

Bad pic I know

And just chilled in the most unflattering pose EVER!

Do I look cross eyed? LOL. and that I'm doing bad things to myself........

Anyway I love my hair in the pics. It's from 69 but I don't wear it too much b/c my ao makes me eat my hair, well my chest. I do this weird thrusting thing from time to time (that sounds bad). but I do love my ao I don't bend over and show off my butt or anything.

Go to this place!!!

I found the most gorgeous place today. If you have a special someone go there. It's called nostos deer. It has an area where it's raining and the music playing reminded me a film where the two characters FINALLY get together and kiss, so romantic. My craptastic picture doesn't do it justice b/c raining at night is so pretty. There's not much else there and you will have to fight w/ the noobs since it is on the destination list but so pretty.

Anyway, my cute hat and hair was 10L at the Car Wash sale. It's from Nevermore and La Boheme. They are having a sale where everything is 10L or less. Artileri and Ingenue is there also check it out. The hat has 18 different color change.

I also tried to hit the Gacha Festival but it was so packed nothing rezzed. Will have to go back.

And finally.....

For you Banana :)

Before my computer went to computer heaven (moment of silence.............) I was doing a picture of the day that I stole from other blogs, who I can't tell you I'm off my I check this blog religiously thing since I can't remember what blogs I did read except for a few.

So anyway since I'm not online every day (mainly the weekends) I will post pics when I do go online.

So here's today's pic reading by the cozy fire that got half cut off LOL. Don't ask me how I got the rug but it's from FD Decor. There is some cute stuff there and it's low prim too.

Oh and yeah same outfit from yesterday-LAZY I know. There are some days I change 80 times and other times where I will wear the same thing for a couple days-don't judge it's cute.

I was sorting through furniture while decorating my house and found some cute things I had. I was sad to see an old furniture place Sommerfeld's is no where to be seen. Oh well. I was also sad that I lost an ottoman from there that was adorable when my stuff got sent to me from the old place after I went AWOL from SL. Oh well so I lost stuff that wasn't copy and such. An really cute flower chair too that I stumbled upon at a store that sold clothes but had some furniture. What it was called I have no clue. Oh well I could have lost a lot more.

I'm going away next week on a mini vacation to the largest roller coaster place in the world (in the US maybe) so I'm excited!! And summer reading is ending this week at the library so hopefully it will be less busy.

Much love my readers :)

New house-edit w/ shirt pic

Hey hey, here's my new house.

Small and cozy and naturey. You can't see it but the shirt I have on it really cute but doesn't seem to fit right and I HATE adjusting things so....it may look a bit crooked eh whatever. I got it from SwanSong (I hope the slurl works, dang second viewer) which I found on the Good Sh@t hunt a few weeks back. Too cute they are having a 50% sale that may have ended already but I got the dress/shirt for 140L.

I tried taking a closer pic but sl is being a pain and not letting me email my pics now so I died when I try to save them and now they wont email to me-ah did I tell you that I love you Linden Labs.

Eh so I did a print screen, here is my badly darkened pic. of my shirt, tunic, think it's called a kaftan shirt I got from Swansong, cute right?

Oh and my headbands in the past 3 pictures have been from Tiny's Bird's Gacha, so if you got some you want to trade....LOL I have like 5 of the same color.

Picture!!!

Well here's a picture of me tonight, I had to email me the picture and then save it and then edit it LOL horrible I don't know why my sl dies when I try to save it to my hard drive. I haven't been wearing glasses to much lately, eh I don't something new I guess.

hi there long time no read

Oh bad blogger Amie bad blogger.

I only lasted 3 days for the blogger challenge. SL still crashes for me when I try to save a picture to my desktop which sucks a lot, so I haven't taken any pictures. I will be getting photoshop again soon so my pictures may not look half bad from hitting print screen. Stupid SL. I should just dl the old viewer again.

In SL news, so much lag-tastic stuff at the summer of Love thingy. Spent to much lindens. My favorite buy was a pair of flower shoes (insert pic here if sl wasn't a pain). They are so cute.

I again have a house. I thought I could go w/o one but changing and rezzing stuff in the public is a pain. The house is small and just 75 prims but cheap and good for now since I'm only online a few days a week.

Well hopefully my picture pain will end soon b/c blogs w/ just words are boring LOL. Just wanted to say I'm alive to my oh 7 followers :)

Oh and hey does anyone know how to get rid of the annoying typing gesture. I have it turned off on my ao but that just makes me type w/ one hand. I don't know if it's different w/ the second viewer.

BBBC #3

Hmm I think I may answer both briefly

How hard do you think it is to find a relationship in SL? If you have an SL relationship, have you met in the physical world? Would you meet them? Do you think it would change your SL relationship if you met?

I didn't know how much SL was a gigantic online dating service until I joined. Well it seems to be mostly an online what bam thank you ma'am. The very first person who I talked to in SL wanted to have the sex you know. The second person asked me if I liked his tattoos, lol. I had a boyfriend when I joined SL and still do so I never looked for a hubby. Sure I like to talk to intelligent people which includes males and I like to dance with them also but that where it ends.

From what I can see if I was single and looking in SL I don't know if it would be hard. I've met some really great sweetheart guys so I guess I could do it.

My romantic heart would quiver if I met someone in SL, met them and married them b/c I read stories (Banana) and it sounds so romantic. But I know if I would do it.

Would you start a relationship with someone you met online? Would you have a problem telling people that's where you met? Do you think it's easier to meet someone online rather than at work or at a club?

I think I might start a relationship w/ someone I met online. Way back in my teen years I met someone in a chat room about U2. He was a sweetheart, we would email all the time. Then one day my mom found out and chewed me out so I freaked out changed my email and don't talk to him anymore. In a way it may have been a good thing b/c I was just 18 and yeah he probably was an 18 year old also but who knows. That is why I don't share much w/ people I meet in SL.

I don't think I would have a problem telling people after I met them. Before as I said above I think the family may not like it.

I think it may be easier to meet someone online b/c at first you talk behind the screen. People may be more open to share information. You may feel more comfy around them.

BBBC #2

whoops behind already, blame it on being away from a computer and having to share a computer when E3 is going on :)

All righty

SL Bloggers - Write about three positive things going on in your Second Life.

Hmm well since I've been away for some time... I think this may be what I like about SL mostly

1-I'm actually back in SL :). My computer more or less died in Dec. I could still use it but pretty much if I signed on it would die, then it would just die at random this went on for months. I stopped using it only to hop on every so often to check email. In April and after a new Belleza skin was released I got itchy and hopped back online only to have my computer completely break down in the middle of April so I'm back online now.

2-I love seeing live acts. These people are fantastic, sometimes far better than half the stuff that is on the radio now. Why certain people get to sing and be famous while these people are just in SL is beyond me. but at least they get to sing to the public.

3-All the fantastic places in SL. I can travel to Greece, Italy, Paris, New York in minutes. It is so awesome. The places look fantastic.

Hmm this post sucks oh well

Thanks for reading :)

Oh one more SL love-I won $100 Lindens for having Marinoco in my Profile picks-Love random money :)

BBBC 2010-Post 1

Nice blog title.
So here we go again.

Question 1- Why did you become a blogger? How has it enriched your life?

Hmm I started a RL blog probably way back in 2003 to post complaints about rl I remember someone telling me how pretentious a person has to be to start a blog b/c who the hell would want to read what YOU wrote. Which is true but my rl blog was for me mostly if someone stumbled upon it well they probably wouldn't know who wrote it. Anyway my sl blog was started to show some cool places to go in SL. This started off slowly and then it turned into a picture a day blog, and then my computer broke and I stopped using SL for 6 months. Anyway the blog is probably mostly for me to remember things I have done in SL, the ugly clothes I probably wore and so on. Do I expect people to read it...no b/c I think I'm pretty boring LOL. I also take really bad pictures and since my last computer ate my free photoshop I got in school my pictures are even worse :)

Has it enriched my life? Probably not, is that bad. I just like to ramble about stuff go back month later and laugh at myself.

All right I wrote enough since I'm watching the Food Network Chocolate Coaster challenge I need some chocolate and have to get ready for True Blood which is coming on in a bit :).

More SL hate

Oh one more thing-if I try to save a picture to my computer SL will crash Why why why? LOL I feel like such a noob it took me forever today to figure out how to teleport with a landmark and if I had a landmark in a nc it saved it no I don't a lm to Truth I'm just to lazy to search my inventory and since I have a nice nc...

Is everyone else having (or had) as much trouble as I am. I feel so dumb.

Yay for blogger for finally have more background choices after like 6 years.

Hey hey

Well guess who finally got a new computer :) I've had it for a few weeks now but had not gotten into SL until 2 days ago. I downloaded the new viewer since I figured i would probably eventually have to do it and yeah let me tell you I feel like a noob.

The one thing I can't stand-not being able to use the arrow keys to see the front of Amie, b/c if I remember correctly I could do that with the old viewer. Also I can't search anything, can't upload a picture and have no clue how you can tell if you can rez boxes (I'm homeless gotta dress somewhere). Sigh. Here's a new picture though.

Not very good, The textures seem to suck everywhere. Sigh sigh sigh.

In RL amie news-still looking for a job.

Feeling Springy

It's been so nice in rl by me the past 2 days I want it to stay, but living in the midwest means snow could still come and 30 degree weather :)

I have been bumming around for the past few days going to old favorite stores and surprised to see a lot of them different. This was taken at Festivale which is completely different than from back in Dec. It's really pretty I like it a lot.

It's so weird being back, some friends booted me from their lists and my old house is sadly being lived in by someone else (which of course is not a surprise). I even got booted from Calla's profile picks or something today guess I didn't update a landmark. Oh such an emo post.

I love this girly shirt which was a group gift from Reale a long time ago. I got some new clothes over the past week and what do I put on a super old one :)

My RL is going all right. I got my diploma in the mail this week. I've had a few interviews but no bites yet. I had a second interview at a place but unfortunately didn't get that job.

Oh and

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!!

Guess whose back...

For a bit at least....

Yeah horrible picture LOL. It looks like I'm running. I did change out of my outfit from the last picture from way long ago with my Magika x-mas hair. Love my Free Speerit skin.

So my computer is still dying or doing whatever it's doing but it goes weeks without clicking and dying so I figured what the hey I'll try dling sl again and seeing if my computer handles it. So I logged on once yesterday for a bout 5 minutes and like 15 today. I don't know where to go though. I started off at Ivalde since my home is no longer my home (tear) and don't have a home base anymore. And then I tp'd to Icing, that's where my picture is at.

So you may see me online from time to time trying to get my feet back into the sl world. But if I disappear again well you know why. Although I know once the computer dies for good there is no way I can be without one for a long period of time. I almost wish it would die for good. I feel like I'm being one of those people who go I'm quitting SL, no I'm not, yes I am for good this time, nope back again. I'm not doing it on purpose :)

Ugh such a bad picture.

Sooo......... so much drama lately in sl and rl.

Banana hun I'm sorry your hurting, for someone I only talked to over a blog and the occasion im (which I think were all offline) and who I never met in world I feel for you. Maybe one day when I shell out the money for a new computer and if you are still inworld we can meet and talk. As much as rl amie tries to keep rl things out of sl, her concern about everyone tends to pop up.

I don't know if you will read this...

And Middleton (which I believe your name is??) sorry for you too :( Both of you actually read my blog and were really kind.

Ok no more sadness. So RL has been busy b/c yeah apparently I can have a life w/o SL. As you know I graduated grad school in Dec. so the job search has been frantic, have a few job interviews in the next few weeks. So hopefully a full time job will come soon.

As for sl, I miss it but it's becoming less and less. I try to not read blogs b/c they make me sad, I don't want to read about the new hunt or the new Truth hairs. Though let me tell you I was dreaming of the belleza gift skin when I saw it on the feeds I was like my computer can handle me jumping online and placing in my inventory for my eventual return. But I didn't. I have a feeling I won't be back for like 2 years and will be walking around in my cool belleza skin that is two years too old LOL.

So until I have more exciting things to talk about and since this is a sl blog I probably won't post again but if you need anything email me amieadamski@yahoo.com.

love you all
Amie

So long, fair well...

Hey hey, hope everyone had a great holiday season. I'm currently writing through my bro's wii b/c my computer is dying a slow death. I was told my hard drive is going. So yeah.

I haven't been inworld in like 3 weeks. Do I miss it, yes. Am I enjoying rl-yes. So it's bittersweet I don't know when i'll be back:( (watch the show Glee if you haven't.)

I didn't get my laptop for xmas b/c my parents don't know what to get, like I do... any suggestions please. Basically what graphics should I have to feed my sl addiction.

Love you all and hopefully I'll be back soon.
