Back to Exploring

I heard there was a new place to check out for wine and treats and had to make my way over there. When I landed, I was a little perplexed that the only way down was via skylift. I wasn’t really dressed for it, but I did have panties on so no roaming werewolves were getting a show and I decided to just go for it and see what happened.

It’s a really adorable little village, and I was able to pick some things up while I was there. Now you might see that alpha collision with the window and my hair. There are people who want to act like that is some sort of photo catastrophe. You know what that is? That’s what it looks like in SL. This will be your experience too most likely and you aren’t going to die because of it. I suppose if you have some photoshop foo and you wanna try to fix it well that’s cool and good for you, but I don’t and I don’t think it’s wrong to show things on the grid the way you are going to experience them.

This rant brought to you by memories of someone who once ranted at me about a photo that had alpha halos.

Other parts of this build were also beautiful, although strange when coupled with the city build. I guess I need to maybe read what it’s supposed to be or something. Maybe.

I don’t know. I got some wine, that was really my goal. Now – time to get back to the skylift!!

In Candytopia It’s All Sweet

Candytopia feels like I place I should have been before now but somehow I’ve failed to go. I made amends for this today by going and actually even checking out their fun game. It’s like the worlds biggest candy land and you can walk through all of the beautiful lands as you progress – and even get a treat here or there.

You know I was loving that!

There are treats and snacks along the way and everything would meet Willie Wonka’s criteria of being edible, eatable – YOU CAN EAT IT!

At the end of course I was the winner as I was playing alone but that didn’t stop me from sitting in the King’s throne for a bit.

How’s your Sunday?

Comfy Shoe Exploring

My friend’s sim Aurelias was recently reopened with an entirely new build and it’s a sweet little blogger paradise with all of it’s wonderful details and scenery.

It’s a lovely place just to BE as well. I could just spend time here being me and enjoying the scenery honestly. It’s so comforting to be in a space that feels so good to be in.

What I found really magical was the level of detail that was put into creating this build.

Look at these adorable little mice in the clock. This is the kind of just wonderful detail that makes this sim worth every little inch of discovery time.

They also built a rainy swampy area that is really spectacular. I’ve been a big fan of any kind of rain in SL forever but clearly it’s improved over time. It’s a great look.

Where did you explore lately?

Christmas Fries

I’ve been missing from the grid for several weeks due to an internet issue that was blocking me from accessing. We got an upgrade and suddenly I couldn’t connect. Annoying, let me tell you.

But eventually I landed back in my house and found Christmas in full swing which means it’s time to decorate and get SUPER happy. I love Halloween but right behind that is the wintery joy that Christmas brings, even to my island paradise.

I picked up this hilarious Elf Fries from Junk Food. It’s the time of year for the silliest of treats and you know I’m here for it.

What’s your methodology for Shop & Hop? Do you go to it? I have a strict rule of always walking in the same direction with either my left or right shoulder facing the shops. I just keep going until I finally get back to wherever I started – if I can remember where that is, of course.

I messed up the other day and when I logged in I chose to log in at home, which meant I had no idea where I’d left off. Oooops. It’s so overwhelming and huge. I’m also not a fan of booths with too much brown. Bad textures are bleh but omg when everything is brown I’m just so done. I know that’s probably silly, but we all have our thing, don’t we?

Now I post this pic with lots of brown because my likes are duplicitous and without reason.

But besides that, I’m back! YAY!

Bell Hop

I headed over to New Orleans for a night or two but the place is in complete disarray. Not the sort of “there are beads, trash and pee everywhere” disarray that one might normally expect in such a place but rather, just trashed. There seemed to be a lot of random people wandering aimlessly too. I’m not sure what exactly is going on, really.

I was excited for a delicious drink from one of my favorite creators – FLAIR from the Halloween Shop and Hop. Do you LOVE Shop and Hop? I legitimately do. I got this adorable hair stick there too.

True story I love hair sticks and was actually introduced to them in SL as an accessory, so I covet them in both lives.

Speaking of Shop and Hop – I’m not done there! Time to get walking…

A New Blogger Appears!

Hihi! I’m Lilyana! I’m brand new to the blog ^_^. I’ll mostly be your blue-haired cupcake weekend blogger! I admit that it is a bit nerve-racking to create a first post. I’m nervous and excited!

I’d been gone from Second Life since 2014 and only recently came back to a whole new world. When I left, the only mesh were hands and feet along with a bunch of clothing. (I still have some lol) Navigating not only mesh heads and bodies but how to find the right things that will work on either. I admit I stumbled a bit, but with the help of my friends on Plurk, who include the bloggers here as well, I think I’m ok now.

I love the weekend sales. Most of the time i can find one amazing outfit from all of the different ones over the weekend to get a great picture! My favorites are Fifty Linden Fridays, The Saturday Sale, Happy Weekend and The Sales Room but there are soooo many more!

7-10-22

The builds at stores are also so amazing. While shopping and getting sales, I keep an eye out for the right place to take my next picture. I’m never disappointed. The 1st image was taken at AvInk & Jael (which has BOM Leggings, Stockings, Fishnets etc.). The second was at Doe Hair Salon (Self explanatory and the hair shown in this image)

7-10-2022

When I’m not shopping I’m club hoppin’! Have you ever been to Club Zero? I definitely was for this picture! They have more edgy music like EDM, Metal, etc.

There is some time left to get the sales done. Most stores also keep up specific day sales such as Fifty Linden Fridays up all weekend as well.

So how did I do? ^_^ Let me know in the comments!

How Do You Start Again

I spent the weekend lounging on the boat with my friend Aliana, the dogs and of course, Mr Man who has some serious opinions let me tell you what. It’s kind of nice sometimes to have nothing to do and all day to do it. I don’t miss the days when my time on the grid was spent rushing to meet deadlines and blogging requirements.

It became not fun. And because it became not fun, I began to dread it.

And now that I’m back, albeit intermittently, I definitely find that I love everything more. Because now it’s on my terms and that makes me more invested in everything. It’s a freedom I lost, and won’t trade again.

Weekends on the house boat, wearing what I want, when I want? It may not be a perfect Second Life,but it’s entirely of my making. And there is no price tag on that.

Aliana, t hough, just wishes I would shut up and stop pontificating so we can go swim in the ocean.

She’s got a point.

Hope your weekend on the grid is beautiful, and everything you want it to be.
