She Taught Me Love, She Taught Me Patience

Hello, lovely people! As we get closer to the end of the year, it’s pretty normal to start to get introspective. We think about what happened over the year, and start making goals for the new year. This year definitely brought a lot of changes to my life! Some of them hurt, but most were really good for me. I feel like I’m in a good place right now. I mean, I’m still anxious 90% of the time and I still feel nuts a lot of the time, but… still, a good place! *laughs*

Don’t forget to hit up The Epiphany before it closes on the 27th and get to Uber before the 22nd! Collabor88 just opened up a new round, too, as did The Liaison Collaborative, so get more shopping done!

And I Could Be All The Things You Told Me Not To Be

Happy weekend, everyone! I hope you all took the time to do something beautiful for yourselves. Like…going to The Epiphany and getting lots of awesome items! If you haven’t been yet, oh my gosh, you totally have to go. There are a lot of spooky items, but a lot of non-spookys, too! Go and play and have fun!

Now I’m Shining, Too

It’s the first day of fall! Officially! I do love the changing of the seasons usually. It’s like a fresh start. I’m all about fresh starts these days. And fresh starts demand fresh clothes and other goodies, so go shop!

I think that possibly, maybe I’m falling for you.
Yes, there’s a chance that I’ve fallen quite hard over you.
I’ve seen the waters that make your eyes shine, now I’m shining, too.
Because, oh, because I’ve fallen quite hard over over you.

Today Is Where Your Book Begins

On Monday morning I did a live stream in SL for the first time in quite a while. I had forgotten how much I missed just chatting with people who are kind enough to come and hear me ramble about various things. It’s different than what I do on my Twitch channel. There, I play games and chat about what I’m doing in that moment. Somehow, live streaming on YouTube is different, and I can talk about any number of things. If you missed it, then I’m sorry, because I deleted the video immediately afterwards. Mostly because I did a playlist of current pop songs in the background and I didn’t need 37 copyright notices, but also because I wanted to chat about some personal things just to get them out there.

Someone in my chat mentioned that SL breaks are a good thing, because it means you can come back later and remember why you love this place. You can start again. It reminds me of a quote I really enjoy – “At any given moment, you have the power to say ‘This is not how my story will end.'”

No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

The rest is still unwritten.

You’ve Got A Friend In Me

Hey snow bunnies! Goodness, it has been so cold around me lately! Of course, what I consider “cold” is probably still shorts weather to some people, but I’m currently all bundled up and waiting for hot coffee to somehow magically appear next to me. (Wouldn’t that be nice?) Luckily in SL, I can be somewhat wrapped up, but still show some leg and also enjoy the snow! ♥

Books Are A Uniquely Portable Magic

Hello bunnies! All of my life, books have been my friends. I started reading a few days before my 3rd birthday [my mom says the first word I ever read was ‘Visa,’ and she knew then I’d be a shopper.] and I fell immediately in love with all books. My Kindle has almost 1000 books in it at this point! Most of which I haven’t even read, but hey, one day, right? If I can stop shopping long enough to get them read!

The Next Step

Hey bunnies! Soooo…tomorrow is my birthday. It’s kind of a big one, too. I plan on being extremely extra for my birthday week, but I think if you can’t be extra during your birthday week, when can you? But once the week is over, I have plans. When you know what you want, the next step can be the hardest. But it’s also the most important. ♥

More Than You Know

Hi bunnies! Oh gosh, this week seems so long already, and it’s only Tuesday! But I think I’m just extra tired today. No matter how much I say I can do with only a little sleep, I’m afraid barely 3 hours of sleep really doesn’t cut it for me. Most mornings, when I do finally sit at the computer, I’m usually feeling okay, but today I am SO tired, I sat here for ages with my eyes closed, much like my picture! Well, minus the cute jeans and good hair and heels, of course. Let’s not get crazy or anything.

Collabor88 has opened up for its birthday round! I was one of the original Collabor88 bloggers back when it started in 2011, and I’m super proud that the event has lasted so long in a world where events come and go all the time. Happy birthday, Collabor88, and best wishes for many more years to come!

Met You One Summer

Hello bunnies, and happy Saturday! And also happy July! It’s really really summer now, and I’m loving it! If going out in the heat isn’t your thing, stay inside and log in, because there are so many events going on! Of course, you all know I’m REALLY hyped about Summerfest!! But also Hair Fair just opened up! Lots of things to see and buy and do, so let’s just get to the pic and credits so everyone can shop!
