Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have

On August 31, 2016 By AlexaIn Events, Furniture, Gacha, Home, LandscapingLeave a comment

Featuring a new release by [Schultz Bros.], which is this skybox that is available now at this new round of Cosmopolitan. It’s copy/mod with only a 7 land impact and its approximately 15 x 11m. Great if you are limited in prim and need something small. I’ve included a collage picture below of how it looks unfurnished.

The skybox is furnished with some new and old stuff. The bed, ottomans, clock and mirror along with the nightstand are items by Bee Designs and it’s from their French Rose gacha. It was from a previous event, but you should be able to find it at the store. The stuffed sheep near the stairs are also by Bee Designs, and are from this round of Lost & Found, but it ends tonight, so they should be available at the store. They are the cutest things and make great decor for anywhere in the house.

Here’s a close up of the dogs. The adult wanderer I’ve shown previously in a post and it’s the reward dog when you hit the JIAN machine at the Arcade 25 times. The family bed is a common and its texture change for both the dogs and the bed. It’s also only 1 land impact.

Happy shopping!

Last Christmas

On December 19, 2015 By AlexaIn Events, Fashion, Furniture, Home, Hunts2 Comments

As I was going through the poses on this chair, which are a few for activities and sleep I settled on this one as it sort of fit my contemplative mood. Gazing at the beautiful tree I thought of how different my last Christmas is to this year. I don’t bemoan material things as those have never been that important to me. No, I grieve the loss of people that were in my life then who no longer are.

For some reason I think this could be my last Christmas in Second Life. I don’t know what the future brings obviously, it’s just more or less a thought that funneled through my mind right now. On January 8th, I will have been in Second Life for 5 years, which in my book is a pretty long time.

That day is also very significant. It was the same date of January 8th two years ago, that I also met someone who came to be a very important part of my life. I miss that period in my life, where everyday was more carefree and not as heavy. I miss him too. My Christmas wish for him is always that he find peace, happiness and joy.

I’m thankful for many things, but today I’m just thankful for even the cool weather that has me shivering from cold.

Dreaming of You

On October 24, 2015 By AlexaIn Uncategorized2 Comments

Showing some more great stuff from the Geeks ‘n’ Nerds Event that will run until November 1st.

Everything, including what I am wearing is from the event.

“Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I wish on a star that somewhere you are
Thinking of me too

Cause I’m dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow I’ll be holding you tight
And there’s nowhere in the world I’d rather be
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me…”

Love doesn’t know any distance.

On February 10, 2015 By AlexaIn Events, Home, Hunts1 Comment

Neither is flirting and trying to hook up with total strangers over an app game. Some days ago I mentioned that during one of my sleepless nights I found myself playing a game of words with total strangers, two in fact a male and a female. Since that night the challenges have continued on and off as time permits. I’ve won some and lost some and it keeps my brain active.

In the game “Words with Friends” there is an option for chat and can only be used if you’re in an active game. Up until then no communication had occurred until this weekend the guy initiates a chat by messaging me that my next move better be a good one just before hitting me with a word that racked up his points. This was all good until he starts to get a little more friendlier.

I’ll spare the details of the come on as it’s rather lame even to my own ears, especially when they have absolutely no knowledge if I’m married, single or whatever. Politely I declined his offer quit the game and refused another challenge.

Maybe this is normal in this day and age?
