It's A Mess - BBBC 2010 #3

Today's BBBC topic didn't really pertain to me, but that's ok I have another topic!

Something that comes up every once in awhile is the size of your inventory. Usually people have pretty high numbers (24K, 30K, 70K etc) then there are those that are smaller like less than 10,000. Some people have never cleaned their inventories ever, which is most likely the cause of the high count in items lol

I on the other hand am sort of an organizer freak. I don't like clutter at all. My inventory is organized into categories, sub-categories that are all tucked into great folders. I will even rename folders & items if the name is something that won't be easy to search later on.

It get's even worse if you belong to groups for bloggers or just groups in general. Notecards, Landmarks, Objects - those three are what I call the problem folders lol they are hard to keep organized! It makes me laugh cleaning my invie and seeing things that are outdated & thinking "when did I ever think this was cute ?".

I should go organize now! You should too lol

The Finer Things in Life - BBBC 2010 #2

Today is Day 2 of the Big Bad Blogger Challenge 2010!

The weekend was filled with good times and bad, but today starts a new week. Let's hope it's filled with tons of awesomeness!

A lot of times we vent about the things that trouble us, make us sad, frustrate & anger us, basically all the negative crap. I myself since I was little have always had a tough time but I got through it by being positive and hopeful. Being disabled, those 2 things can get you through a ton! So in keeping with today's question for the challenge I am going to list 3 positive things going on in my SL.

1. I have great friends that are there for me and truly do care about me. We can take pictures, sit & stare, build for fun, vent about things or just sit and chat! I even have a twin (personality wise) who adopted a little child av, so I am an aunty too!

2. I have a place to call home, it is my calming place. It is surrounded by other beautiful parts of the island where my friends have decorated their homes.

3. I can sit there not really thinking of anything and all of a sudden ideas just come to me. I have always been creative, a total ideas kinda girl but it happens a lot in SL. I can decorate in so many ways, & sometimes get to help content creators with my ideas. Its a wonderful feeling.

Every once in awhile take a moment to think of a positive thing going on. Be it in RL or SL, among all the crap we go through there is always something good. Someone out there will always be worse off than you are sadly, so let's be thankful for what we have. <3

Written Like A True Blog Post - BBBC 2010

So I totally took my title from the saying "spoken like a true poet"

Today launched another year of the Big Bad Blogger Challenge. Alicia Chenaux started this in 2008 as a way to give SL bloggers a little kick start, and give people something to read. Since then it's grown to be a big fun event. Learn more about it in Alicia's kick off post.

Today's question given to us if we so choose to use, is Why did you become a blogger ? How has it enriched your life ?

I have always loved writing since I was a kid. I learned to read and write even before starting kindergarten. Writing can be so fun. You can release your inner thoughts, create stories of your imagination, and even vent about things bothering you. The reason I chose to blog in RL was to update friends & family, and also as sort of a journal. My reason to blog in SL is because of the same reason and also to just let lose and write about my adventures in SLife.

It has enriched my life by bringing me closer to friends and family in both lives. In SL it has also helped me to improve on another great thing I love, photography.

Anyways hope you decide to join us, either by reading or signing up by clicking the link above. I am very excited to be a part of this for a 2nd year and hope that unlike last time, I get to finish the full week! <3

That's So Plaid!

Plaid can totally rock!

Sometime last year I got a notice from the lovely store Salsa! They make some super awesome cute and sometimes even quirky stuff. That particular day they had released these great plaid tops for guys and plaid tunic tops for girls.

When I saw them I was in love! They were just so cute. So I got 2 of the tunic tops. Great thing is they can also be worn without the prim skirt part that makes the tunic, and just be worn as a plaid t-shirt too! How sweet is that ? It's like 2 shirts for the price of one. Bonus!

Here are the wonderful tops. They also come in a variety of other colors such as, Carrot, Grass, Sky, and Daffodil. The two I'm wearing below are Lipstick and Dust. Enjoy!

Pretty In Pink

Pink rules!

I have always loved the color pink. It's such a great color for clothes, accessories, fabrics and all kinds of stuff. So today I thought why don't I go into my Pink Outfitters folder and find something pink to wear. I have enough of it to choose from that's for sure lol

I chose this great dress I got one day at a sale. It's got pink, white and black all mixed in to make a wonderful looking mini dress. I think this style can take you anywhere from a club to a cocktail party. I know you'll want to go get this cute set up so I shall stop talking and show you the picture!
