Holding On (to a Dear Friend)

Holding On
Holding On,
originally uploaded by moniq salamander.
This beautiful pic speaks volumes, and it was taken by Moniq Salamander who is a fantastic blogger, a dear friend, a constant support, and one who definitely makes my SL a much better place!! When Moniq  asked me to take this pic with her, I felt so excited, so touched, and so honoured (see Moniq's blog here)!! Thank you Moniq, for just being you!!! MUACHHHHHHHHH!!!


Oh I almost forgot the style notes *LOL*: I'm wearing Starz Acropa Dress from KIM which I bought a few years back, but I think it's still on sale; one of my favourite jewellery sets Ivory Petals from Twisted and Spoiled which was also bought a few years back so I'm not sure if it's still available, and Baby hair from EMO-tions which will be released this Saturday!!

Airy-Fairy



I love these new Kira scripted wings that come in a few sizes and in several beautiful colour blends with different animations such as open and close, lower and rest, flap and flutter and at varying speeds too! The wings close automatically when my avatar moves and I can open them again either by activating the gesture provided or by hitting the F2 hotkey, which came in handy when SL was laggy and all my gestures couldn't load! Anyway, I'm having so much fun with the wings I think I'll be wearing them for awhile! *hee*

Aggressione!!



I was absolutely thrilled when my friend (also fellow blogger and plurker) Corina Carlberg dropped this pink outfit on me yesterday (she remembered my favourite colour!!), and I got even more excited when I realized it was something she made!!! Way to go, Corina! I love the pretty flower details on the shoulder and sash, and OMG just look at that naughty peek-a-boo butt crack from the low-rise skirt!! My kind of outfit for sure! *hee*

Crash Central

After the initial excitement and exhilaration of finally being to take pics with shadows without black patches, today I had to deal with countless crashing in SL just to take these two pics!! It was certainly a very frustrating experience, especially when something so simple can become so complicated. I may just have to go back to pics without shadows if it's going to take forever--before it kills my love for blogging. OK end of ranting! *hee* Thank goodness for these new pretty pastel tops from Ayla's--they made me forget my 'troubles' and I had a great time trying them on, removing sculpted parts for a sleeker silhouette and putting them back on for a sweet casual look! I chose my two favourite colours from the fatpack and I hope you all enjoy these pics because they were taken with blood, sweat and tears--um..ok maybe not blood, but sweat and tears for sure! *grin*

For My Plurk and Flickr Friends!





I've always appreciated my friends from plurk and flickr since these are now my main channels of communication, but in my recent struggle with SL shadows and technical problems with my graphics card, driver, etc, I've come to appreciate them even more--their prompt responses, their advice, suggestions (and even some funny comments *hehe*) all made me feel so loved. And also many thanks to a fellow blogger and flickr friend Mimi Namiboo (whose photo-taking skills I really admire-see her blog here) because she found the solution to my problem!!! Yay!! So today I dedicate these pics (with shadows, at last!!!) to Mimi and to all my plurk/flickr friends!! Big hugss and kisses to all of you!

Help Japan



There were so many lovely items at the Help Japan Fundraiser that I had a hard time deciding what to buy. In the end I chose this cute hair named Rin II, then matched it with an adorable ruffled top and pretty tulle skirt. They also go so well with my new bracelets and red heels! Then I had such a pleasant surprise when my sweet blogger friend and pose-maker Annomis dropped her new pack of poses named 'Natural' on me!!! By the way I lurrve her poses, and not just because she's a friend--I had seen her poses in her blog posts and since then I just couldn't wait for her to start selling them! So far I have bought her first two packs named 'Relaxed' and 'Dynamic' which I have used in my previous posts, and to me, they are different, unusual, interesting, and a breath of fresh air!

For the Love of Japan



Words just can't describe the thoughts and emotions that went through me when I watched news feeds on the disaster in Japan, but once again, it's heartwarming to see charitable spirits and unity among SL residents as they get together to bring some hope to the victims in whatever way they can--kudos to the organizers of the Pacific Crisis Fundraiser (PCF) and all who are involved in any way!! As for me, I was so delighted when I was finally able to get into the PCF sim and managed to buy two dresses and some jewellery. But because of time, I will just show you one outfit today. Also, my blogger friend Annomis made some really cute poses and they are on sale now at the marketplace! I didn't even know she made poses till I saw them on her blog!
