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?”

The most exciting thing about sl is dressing up like this and walking around without anyone giving you a ‘second look”. Another exciting part is finding the perfect “scene” when it comes to taking pictures. One of my favorite blogs to visit for scenery inspirations is avatar’s in motion. I have to admit, in my opinion, her blog is one of the most beautiful blogs I’ve ever come across.

Anyway, on to the look of the day- If I haven’t already creeped you out and scared you off-. I am having a blast with the makeup pack I picked up from Nuuna Skins’ store. If you’re into this stuff like I am, go visit her store and have fun drooling as much as I did.

Coming undone ( pt. 2)

Also, I got that dress a while back and absolutely loved it, except I am pretty sure it would look pretty odd with an overly active ao. Luckily it comes with two alpha layer options so your legs don’t pop out as you walk. And it has a few other options ( shorter and so on) Pretty awesome right? I have to admit, Violent seduction has a number of well made items!.

Sometimes when we get so engulfed in something we find flaws unexpectedly and that’s when your heart drops and you feel a lot more disappointed than you normally would.

Here’s my case in point; I was prancing around sl with this beautiful number, another one of Phoenix Rising’s imaculate pieces (see here and here) and I kept noticing an odd green strip of fabric that just wouldn’t blend nicely with the other prims. I clicked around a bit and viola! found the culprit. For some reason unbeknown to me the creator must have forgotten to add on the right texture. Here’s a screen cap of what I mean.

Edit: For those who haven’t looked at the screencap carefully. It is not a tinting issue. It’s an entirely different texture. If you look closely you can see the color cube tinted to brown .. and now take a look at the texture cube… it’s an entirely different texture from the others… so that explains the green color on the prim and the fact that it obviously wouldn’t just blend in. Hope that explains any confusions. If it were something that was easily tint-able I would have fixed it and then blogged the fix. But this is a different texture.

These silent hearts, we hold within our hands.

Hello My lovelies,
Another day of my new found gown obsession. I have Phoenix Rising to blame for this!. She has an on-going sale. So cheap I am almost too embarrassed to tell you. It cost almost nothing to look this good!. But, the woman deserves the recognition for her stunning gowns. So, Ms Ashoka Eales, if you are out there listening. I love you, I love you, and I love you.

And in other news, I recently acquired a mini-elevated stunning island which is where I am coming to you live today. Thanks to the amazing prices I found with yourHOME, (check them out on marketplace).

Once I complete my setup, I’ll be sharing more pictures of my home in world with everyone. In the meantime enjoy this beautiful number by Phoenix Rising.
