Hunting & A Final Visit

1 CSR Hunt LMD_013

Like a lot of bloggers, I headed over to World’s End Garden to farewell this beautiful place. Apparently, it is closing on the 18th of October, so I wanted to visit once more before it disappears from the grid. WEG has been around for years, and it’s simple beauty is so tranquil and relaxing. Often we forget about just stopping to appreciate the loveliness of our virtual world. This spot is the perfect reminder of just what beauty our residents create.

The pretty, feminine dress I am wearing is a gift from Leri Miles Designs for the Cosmopolitan Sales Room 1st Anniversary hunt. You can pick up a notecard with slurls and hints at the landing point, which you can reach from this link. It is a sim-wide hunt running from the 13th through the 27th of October, and you are looking for a chocolate birthday cake – no licking the frosting!

Just So Cao Doesn’t Get More Upset

1 r2 Collab_014

I know, Cao, two days without a post – I’m sorry! I’ve been having problems with my computer lately and it reared it’s ugly head again. Whenever I work with graphics-intensive programs, like shooting photos in SL or Photoshop or even PicMonkey, my computer crashes and restarts over and over in a viscious cycle. So I’ve been holding off on posting until I can get the issue sorted out.

But poor Cao starts to fuss at me if I miss more than a day, so I’m going ahead and blogging this, with my fingers crossed. I’m not crazy about how the photos turned out, but I’m giving Fernando a rest and just going with what I had managed to get done.

You Know I Had To

1 Peep Show_034

Yep, as soon as I saw a preview of the gacha items for Devious Minds at the OMG Gacha event, I knew I had to do whatever it took to get this sign! It is as if Chandra Meehan made it just for me 😀

And of course, as is the way with gachas, I had to dump a small fortune into the machine before I scored the Peep Show sign I desperately wanted – even if it is a Common item! I racked up three Rares and multiple other Commons before I finally was rewarded with my personalised sign. Ah, the thrill of it! No wonder gachas are so popular – it’s the anticipation, the sorrow and joy, the excitement when you finally earn the reward.

I can only say that if the creators in SL continue to devise such clever and whimsical items for gacha festivals, they will continue to rake in the cash while the rest of us happily enjoy the thrill of the chase.

You know you’ll have to 😉
