Wow, I'm in Need for some Fitness!

January 09, 2017

I Should Gym

It is often that our New Year's resolution involves working out and getting fit. Collabor88 has a new round of designs revolving around fitness. It will get you into the sporty mood and give you the motivation like it has for me.

 As you can tell my love for fashion and high-quality cheapies hasn't died out. A lot of generous designers spoil us with beautiful gifts in SL. With the rising popularity of mesh heads due to Bento heads hitting the grid, designers have came out with Bento compatible skin appliers. I suggest if you haven't, to pick up this group gift from WoW Skins which is compatible for Catwa's bento mesh head and non-bento mesh heads. It includes appliers for your Catwa head and Omega compatible appliers for your mesh body. The join fee for Wow Skin's group is 450L$ however they offer regular gifts that can please any skin lover.

Hey! Just A Note to People

January 08, 2017

Oh Where Can My Kitty Be?

I may be rambling a bit here, but I wished that SL was easier to explain to people who don't play it. I have introduced it to my really close friends but it is hard to explain to the whole community outside SL. 

I'm not a secretive person when it comes to my personal life as I feel it is more comfortable to keep it real in both virtual and real worlds. I enjoy sharing what I love which is photography, people I adore, places and things I enjoy, and that includes all games I play like SL. 

That being said though, I do respect those who make Second Life a confidential part of their lives and keep it that way. However why does it have to be seen as just that, "a secretive game"? 

There is a stigma associated with people who play Second Life, with the help of non-long term players or people from the outside who describe it as a game for virtual world sex, cheating and/or trolling. How sad, right? No one out there really takes notice of the creativity associated with such virtual worlds, which are made by the very talented users themselves. People just assume that players who play this game seek pleasure that they can't attain in real life or have a depressing life. If people are truly hurt and seek SL for relief, let them be, it is none of your business. Like many games, Second Life is to me is for fun. I play many games, especially MMOs that I enjoy in my spare time. Second Life is one I go back to keep updated with the community, talk to friends from the other side of the world, and check on my favourite designers and check out new ones. 

Lately SL has attracted a lot of creepers due to its terrible rep but to be honest with you, that goes for digital and real life. You're going to meet all sorts of people on your adventures in both worlds which makes it all the more exciting. It's ok because on this blog I'll keep you updated on what's up in SL and so forth. Therefore hope you enjoy, as there's more to come.

What I'm wearing:

Mesh Eyes: Catwa - Rigged Eyes

Back From the Holidays

January 04, 2017

Summer Vibes

Hey! I've just gotten back from spending time with my family during the New Year's holidays. We went to the countryside which was different from my usual city adventures in RL. We saw lot of grapes. Oooh ahh how interesting (sarcasm). It was relaxing but oh how I have missed the city and the beach! It gets super hot in Australia so I'll be making sure I hit the waves again when I can. 

Beach Vibes

 My beachy bikini top and accessories from Mon Cheri's gacha has given me summer vibes. They are 75L$ per play at their main store. My hair, "Sugar" is a group gift from Truth which gives you the options of having the bun styled with or without bangs. It also comes with a fat-pack of colours. The Truth VIP group join fee is 265L but I think it is a steal price for high quality locks by Truth Hawks every month! My lovely hoop earrings are a gift from Euphorie available on MP. 

Hope you all have a fantastic new year!

Treat Yourself This New Year!

January 01, 2017

My Catya Bento Head

Happy New Year! 

 Goodbye and good riddance 2016. I'm welcoming 2017 with high hopes and positivity. Last year was my most stressful year of schooling so let's hope university makes up for it. In the meantime, since it is the summer holidays here, which is all about indulging in the good things, I've decided to treat myself to a Bento mesh head. This mesh head is "Catya" from Catwa! I'm still tweaking it as we speak but I can say I adore the full ability to customise. We can now look unique in high quality mesh heads, what more could I ask for?!

I am wearing Pink Fuel's "Sabine" Catwa Mesh Head Applier which is suited for Bento or Non-Bento Catwa mesh heads.

Hope you are all beginning your New Year with the people that you love.

This video from Catwa displays how the SL sliders work with the Catya bento head if you are interested in how it can be adjusted to your liking.

Santa Tell Me if You're Really There

December 21, 2016



I was feeling super Christmassy and decided to go to a sim I've never explored before to take photos. That's what blogging makes me do - It forces my lazy digital butt go out more often. I decided to go to Winter Moon which is a gorgeous icy sim with a radiant aura to it. After I had taken my photos, I had bumped into an old friend of mine, Duchamp Magic. It was an unexpected surprise but a nice one! I hadn't seen or heard from him for almost four years. We rekindled our friendship of course, now I guess it's time to hunt down my other friends from the past. Well, I'd like to.



We are close approaching Christmas. Therefore let's get into the Xmas spirit with some gifts from the convenience of the Marketplace! My dress from RealEvil is for free. It is only for Maitreya Lara Body, SLink Physique and Hourglass and Belleza bodies. eXxEsS also has this Christmas themed hair available for L$1 with festive baubles!

A Late D!va

December 21, 2016

A Late D!va

I may be a little late to the party as these gifts from D!va were to celebrate their 6th year anniversary and 50,000 group members back in 2015. Despite being a tad behind, I suggest if you haven't, to go grab these stunning gifts I'm wearing! Who doesn't want a 
beautiful gown on a night out? Especially for the Christmas season. 

A D!va

This free Iris hair from D!va comes in a Fatpack with a hud that includes colour options for the hair and flowers. The mesh gown comes in standard sizes.

I hope that you all stay safe and have a joyous holiday because you deserve it. That being said, my heart goes out to the families and people who have suffered through the Berlin attack. It is truly devastating and I hope everyone who has experienced a loss keep their head high and stay strong.
