The hardest things are always said last… ( going on hiatus ).

As I push the 100 and something blog post threshold I feel myself losing interest. Perhaps it has a little to do with how hectic/busy my rl has gotten since this semester’s began. Like for example, I took pictures last week and I am not entirely satisfied with them but, I figured to achieve the ‘looks’ I want, I’d need to dedicate more time to the process… more time, which, I certainly don’t have.

So, what’s the basis of all this? Is it a subtle hint into the near future? Maybe… because, as it is this year will be an eventful one. I am graduating in the summer and making plans for grad school or pursuing a second degree. I’ll be leaning towards the latter but, I am certain my performance by the end of this semester will be the defining factor all around.

Oh, and not to mention, I’ll be moving in less than a month. Now, not to put my entire reallife out there because, I’ve always strived to maintain a certain amount of anonymity but, I think it is important everyone who cares understands the reasons behind my prolonged absences hence! the explanation…out of respect mostly… Because, I just think it’s rude to disappear without a word and not to the mention, the speculations that might arise as some people have no problem blatantly impersonating others ( e.g the never ending copybot crisis and the things in between) ~ of course, that’s another story for another blog post.

Anyway, I hope you’ve enjoyed my short ado about absences!. When I am officially back, you’ll be the first to know!

and as always,
xoxo

Video :: Heartbreak warfare by John Mayer
Lightning strikes
Inside my chest to keep me up at night
Dream of ways
To make you understand my pain

Clouds of sulfur in the air
Bombs are falling everywhere
It’s heartbreak warfare
Once you want it to begin,
No one really ever wins
In heartbreak warfare

If you want more love,
why don’t you say so?”

WE NEED MORE MALE BLOGGERS IN SL!!.Annnddd, end rant. It’s been ages since I’ve done a blogger collarboration and since I enjoyed the last one I decided it was time for another!.

I think I can count the number of male bloggers there are in sl-who are actually male-on two hands. Of course, who can really blame them? Half of the merchandise in sl is geared towards females, except for, maybe that once a year make him over hunt there is barely anything out there for them. Which kinda sucks because, there are some men who actually put an effort into their looks and then, there are those who go the extra mile and blog about those looks. Hence, we just have to show our appreciation.

I got to meet up with Lorenzo Mixemup,blogger and owner of the blog Kid cocaine the other day! We got dressed, found a spot and took some shots!. Ohh that rhymed!. Anyway, I just have to THANK the kid because, for some reason my pc decided to bitch out ( Ha! no pun intended) and I literally crashed over 4 times before getting a snapshot in so, he ended up having to take most of the shot and during the entire time he was so patient and understanding. And in some ways I think that’s what blogging really takes. Patience.

Anyway, check out our swagu ( heheh, he says that on his flickr ). Kid Cocaine and Jumphearts. Aren’t we just the sexiest?! Check out The Kid’s blog for more men’s fashion!

I might be too strung out on compliments
Overdose on confidence
Started not to give a fuck
and stopped fearing the consequence
Drinking every night because we drink to my accomplishments
Faded way too long I’m floating in and out of consciousness

I might be venturing into an unknown abyss with this post but, bare with me, I am only a blogger and the only thing that really catches my eye, if anything, is fashion and great style. I appreciate uniqueness, whichever community it is from. Which is why today you get to see a different side of my experience in the secondlife fashion community, proundly presented by me and of course sponsored by *{ SeVered GarDeN }*! (Thank you so much for your support, generosity and amazing creativity!) along with multiple-talented secondlife designers! Who have the daily courage to bring you amazing designs like these every, single, day… or week, but that’s besides the point.

Today, we’ll talk about Gor. Yeah, you read that right!, go back and read it over again if you’d like. As, some of you know, there is a large community of Gorean Roleplayers in secondlife. Just type the word “gor” in search and viola! a large collection comes up ( please,do this ONLY if you are over 18, as all gorean sims are rated R or NSFW!) Here’s a list of some pretty good ones in no particular order, depending on the kind of roleplay you are seeking ( but, that’s another story, which is not necessarily ment for this post as I refuse to touch on the on-going saga in gorean roleplay). Some of these sims are considered btb (the John Norman series) while others are not.

Ghost Outlaws
Ulfhendnar Vikings
WTF Marauder
Skerry of Einar
Black Pearl Mercs
Dark Sword Outlaws
Kenaz
Village of Argentum
Spirit Mercs
Kassau Mercs
Souless Outlaws

Feel free to also visit the Gor hub as well (which is active 24/7).
If you are unfamiliar with Gorean roleplay you should probably wear an observer tag before you venture there, depending on how much you can gather within a few days or more, they might let you in.

How did I come about all this information you might ask?, well, for the past few months I have been trying my hand at various roleplay sims. Recently I gave gor another shot, after a day or two I landed myself in a group! with the Ghost Outlaws as a “kajira” also known as a slave. No, it is nothing like the slavery of old which most of us have learned about in school and such. Nor does it have too many similiarities to bdsm as most of secondlife assumes. It’s quite the contrary which I have discovered over the past couple of weeks.

Anyway, all this aside, my favorite pasttime was-you guessed it! “dressing up!!“. Kajirae’s are required to dress appealingly or perhaps raunchy. I will be keeping things a little polite for this post. Enjoy!.

These pictures were shot at the Empress and Hierophant sim.

If you haven’t been living under a rock you would have at least heard of the unfortunate events that have befallen the pacific region, and with that little hint there will be no need of an explanation. But of course, if the above applies to you ( you’ve been living under a rock that is)… try coming out for a tan sometime will ya?.
One thing I’ve come to embrace about secondlife, aside from the excruciating lag, hospitable grievers and wanna be ” it ” girls/men ( vise-versa, or both, whatever, take your pick ) is their charitable nature. When, it really comes down to it – they give.

So, while this may be redundant to some of you on flickr there are the rest of us who want to do something to help out but, probably aren’t too keen on traveling all the way out to Japan for some hands on aide, with that being said, here are a list of various events in and around secondlife pertaining to fund raising efforts. The designers involved in these events are donating 100 percent of their proceeds toward monetary relief efforts ( unless stated otherwise). Please be a doll and lend a helping hand. <3

Pacific Crisis Fundraiser
The Pacific Crisis Fundraiser

An emergency fundraising effort for the victims of the crisis in the Pacific that hit on the 10th/11th of march is being set up.
SL is an international community, with a strong base in Japan specifically. This disaster is worldwide and affects us all, as a community SL has risen up time and time again to help out in times of distress, including very recently.
In september 2010 11,000 us dollars was raised for the pakistan flood crisis relief fund (UNICEF) at an sl event. An event organised in four days. This is an example of what our community can do, and we are attempting to prepare for a similar, simple but effective, event.
We are calling for anyone who wishes to help with this fundraiser. We will be providing vendors that donate 100% of sales to a charity account (Charity Shelter) for people to place in their stores and at an event location

Love always, Mia.

These are the times we all wish for.

Hello My Darlings,
I have been on hiatus for quite sometime, I know. I have missed each and everyone one of you respectively. Even the lurkers get a little bit of love around here! but, feel free to leave a comment sometime, let me know you are watching.

Now on to the business of the day. I have been at Franks Place Jazz lately and the atmosphere has turned me into a hopeless romantic over night. Not to say I havent always been one but now, I am into the glints, the glamor and old style English sayings. And little nothings. Bored yet? Oh honey I wish you knew the fun in it all. Perhaps you’d care to stop by sometime soon? and we could enjoy a dance together maybe?

I got soul but I’m not a solider. (Feat. The Tape Fabric shop)

While sim hopping trying my hand at the Zombie popcorn hunt I bumped into an up and coming designer, miakisses Lupindo it’s always refreshing to come across new talent, new faces, new names… the likeness. To begin with she’s such a doll. I love love creative avatars!!! and she’s got an awesome personality.

As we talked, discussing her duck tape designs I thought it would be a great idea to play a game; so here’s how it goes. The first 10 people to IM her in world with the catch phrase “jumphearts” will get a free STFU mouth tape..now go, go, go!!
