In the Summertime ~ A Summerfest Sneak Peek

In the summertime when the weather is hot
You can stretch right up and touch the sky
When the weather's fine
You got women, you got women on your mind
Have a drink, have a drive
Go out and see what you can find

We're no threat, people
We're not dirty, we're not mean
We love everybody but we do as we please
When the weather's fine
We go fishin' or go swimmin' in the sea
We're always happy
Life's for livin' yeah, that's our philosophy

 Sing along with us
Dee dee dee-dee dee
Dah dah dah-dah dah
Yeah we're hap-happy
Dah dah-dah
Dee-dah-do dee-dah-do dah-do-dah
Dah-do-dah-dah-dah
Dah-dah-dah do-dah-dah...

The Nutcracker ~ An Arcade Photography Contest Entry

"Before long, it was time for all the guests to leave. Marie reluctantly said good night to her nephew and went to bed but she couldn't sleep. She kept thinking about her Nutcracker doll. She slipped out of bed and tiptoed downstairs where the Nutcracker was still resting on his little bed. She cradled the Nutcracker in her arms and fell asleep on the sofa in the parlor. 

Suddenly, Drosselmeier appeared out of the darkness. He gently took the Nutcracker from Marie and fixed it. Just as he was placing it back in her arms, she started to wake up. The lights on the tree began to flicker and Drosselmeier appeared on top of the grandfather clock, flapping his arms like a giant owl..."

Special thanks to my wifey, Zie, for sharing this light filter with me.

Rather Be: A Trunk or Treat Looksie

We staked out on a mission to find our inner peace
Make it everlasting so nothing's incomplete
It's easy being with you, sacred simplicity
As long as we're together, there's no place I'd rather be

If you gave me a chance I would take it
It's a shot in the dark but I'll make it
Know with all of your heart, you can't shake me
When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be
N-n-n-no, no, no, no place I'd rather be..

Let It Go

Hey all! I'm back from my RL vacation and mini blogging vacation. I hope you've missed me. I decided to change my priorities in SL a little and just have fun so blogging took a back burner for awhile but I'm back. You see, I was getting caught up in the game and taking things too seriously. I trusted people over the past year whom I now know I shouldn't have trusted and was hurt numerous times by people I considered to be my best friends inworld. I've made the choice to become selfish and only do things for myself in the future. It's sad that I have to change who I am in order to mentally survive in a virtual world but sometimes I guess change is for the good so here is to hoping. When I first joined SL, I was looking for a place to escape the seriousness of my RL but over the past year, SL has brought me more drama and grief than RL ever brings me. I don't want negativity online and yes, I know that I am responsible for some of it but it's not who I am or who I ever want to be. I feel sorry for those who let it consume them and eat away at their hearts and hope someday they can get to this very place where I am at. Since it's the start of a new year, I'm using this time to let it go and forget about the past. I hope you all use this time to do something that makes you happy and brightens up your life as well.

Now onto blogging stuff! Once again, I've decided to enter The Arcade photo contest. I love gachas and the thrill of attaining that precious rare you must have plus the warm feeling in my heart when I surprise my friends with a little gift that I've picked up from them so of course, The Arcade is my favorite SL event. I love how whimsical the designers get with their creations each round and always wind up picking up more than I need. The last few rounds I've realized that I could use my stuff to make pictures and enter the contest dreaming of winning so that's what I did. When Dead Dollz released this breathtakingly beautiful Frozen inspired dress at their store, I decided I wanted to do a snow fairy look with all my Arcade goodies so voila this is the picture.

Finally, my location today is at the Louisiana SIM and I'd like to thank Zaidee Frost for allowing me to come rez all my stuffs and terrorize her land. Zaidee designed this beautiful winter SIM for a winter charity ball that went off this weekend raising 23K in lindens for an AIDS foundation. The SIM is fabulous and rez is on so you can rez fun little props to take pictures if you promise to clean up after yourself. You should definitely check it out as it's open until January 5th and while you're there, be sure to donate a little money to the cause at one of the many donation boxes that decorate the SIM.

Fall Time!

Hi readers! I'm on a bit of a budget but felt like blogging so I've got some prizes you can grab at The Autumn Effect Hunt to show off as well as this adorable hat from Sweet Leonard that is for sale at Marquis Market. My cutesy hat is available in 3 colors and is an exclusive to this event so hurry over and pick it up.

Now, let's talk about these hunt goodies. Cynful has out this sexy sweater dress as its prize. This curve hugging number comes in three versions: turtleneck, no turtleneck, and busty. I'm not a huge turtleneck fan so I loved the non version and am happy she gave out all of the choices. Another cute prize this hunt has is this Fall inspired leaf necklace from Atooly. This delicate accessory adds just the right touch to my outfit. As you can see, these are both awesome prizes so be sure to check out this hunt if you're on a budget like me. Can't wait till payday!

Finally, I decided to share another windlight with you all tonight. If you've noticed, my last few posts were all done in a Fall hued windlight. I made this one by tweaking a windlight that I already had downloaded to highlight all of the pretty tones of this season so it may look similar to one you already have (Sorry! I forget whose to give proper credit to!) but I figured everyone needs a pretty new windlight and some of you might be a little afraid to attempt messing with them yourself so I figured why not!

Fall Into the Arcade

It's everyone's favorite time of year. Yep, you guessed it. Arcade time! Every 3 months or so, I get super excited to see what the talented designers of this event come up with loving almost everything and this round was no exception. So much cuteness to be had and of course, I had to take a pic and show it all off. Enjoy!

Also, my sexy shoes are the newest release from Filthy and are made for Slink feet. These strappy wedges come in a variety of colors so be sure to check them out after you're done at The Arcade.

Touch The Sky With Kawaii

Kawaii Fair 2013 started just a few hours ago and has oodles of cuteness just waiting for you to nab. From adorable accessories to fun, colorful outfits, there is something to be had for everyone. This event runs till the 26th and features over 70 of Second Life's cutesy designers. If you'd like a little glimpse of which stores are participating, you can head on over to the official blog here. Or you can look at my pretty pictures and get a visual of some of the fantastic goodies up for sale.

My absolute favorite item from this event has to be these bright, playful balloon poses from elephante poses. Elephante did a bunch of exclusives for this event and I gave an inner squeal looking at them all but I loved this one the best so you get to see me floating away. This whimsical pose prop comes with 8 built in poses from simple stands with the balloons to blowing away ones. As you can see, my birdie friends from MishMish didn't want me to fly away so they came to the rescue. All goodies worn besides my purty skin which is Al Vulo newness from TDR Fusion and my hair are Kawaii Fair items so you know you wanna check out this event so you too can touch the sky with Kawaii!
