SL Weekly Words Challenge Week 2: Wants and Needs

8 Replies

Thanks to Elusyve for posing with me. 🙂

The SL Weekly Words Challenge is a blogger challenge where I suggest two words each week and bloggers are encouraged to portray those words with an image. New or old, it doesn’t matter. What matters most is expressing yourself creatively and having fun.

One person’s happy words might be another persons sorrow. Sharing what they meant to you in a picture is wonderous to me and I can’t wait to see what you guys do this week.

For Wants and Needs I chose an image of comfort with one of my best friends, Elusyve. When I’m sad and shaken she soothes me. She makes me laugh and I can truly say she gets me.

I’m lucky, that my wants and needs often coincide in one place, love and friendship.

Next weeks word: Deliberate

Bubblegum and Poison

It’s time for Bubblegum weekend hair again and I thought what goes better with bubblegum than …..POISON!!!

The Lucrezia ring is a recent release from Bewildebeest. I’ve had it for a bit, but since my good PC is in the shop (motherboard conked out) I was a little hesitant to shoot really intricate jewelry on this old vid card. But I think it shows off the ring ok! Continue reading →

It's The Week When I Get A Bunch of Group Gifts

It’s a quickie tonight but really how much do you NEED me to type?

Doux Petite Dahl group has sent out a group gift that’s super cute – a retro bikini with cover up, glasses, necklace, shoes and socks (not shown). I always forget I belong to this group but it’s a cute little store and worth a flyby. Continue reading →

With Love For Lelutka

I am not a big group JOINER. This is probably because I don’t get out much plus I’m not a big shopper per se so, I tend to only be in groups I really love being a part of.  Lelutka is one of those groups.

Recently they sent out a group notice with a sweet summery gift that I’m fairly sure has been blogged ad infinitum. I could check the feeds but why bother? Other bloggers loving on it doesn’t make my loving any less. In fact, I guess it just reinforces WHY it’s freaking awesome group to belong to. Continue reading →

SL Weekly Words Challenge: Week One – Faith and Desire

22 Replies

When I first started blogging, a bajillion years ago, there was a guy I knew who ran a weekly blog event called The Weekly Words Challenge. I have no clue if he still does it, but  it was one of my favorite things because bloggers from all genres, mommy blogs, religious blogs, craft blogs, etc would all take part.

It worked like this. He’d issue a word or a short phrase and then, show you a picture that represented that word or phrase to him. It was simple. Sometimes they were old pictures, sometimes they were new. But it was exhilarating to see how powerful words were, and the disparity of the meanings people could attribute to them. A word of phrase that made you feel happy might make another feel dark and pensive.

I always loved it, so I’ve decided to start doing it here in SL for funz. If you have time or the inclination to participate, thats cool 🙂 I’d love it. Feel free to link back in the comments each week.

This week’s words are:

FAITH AND DESIRE

And a jump on next week if you are interested in playing along, next weeks words are:

Wants and Needs
