Taking A Break

1 Taking a Break

While gardening in Second Life isn’t as strenuous as in Real Life, it’s a perfect excuse to take a break after weeding and planting. Snuggling with your significant other can be as refreshing as a day at the spa.

Well, maybe not, but it does give you a warm feeling when you curl up in his lap on a soft blanket 🙂

Me, Myself and I Meme: Who Am I?

1 Turbans & Texture 1

You’ve got to love Strawberry Singh. Even while she’s on spring break, she’s managed to get out a meme this week. She says this one is quick and easy, but the hardest part for me is not thinking – just answering!

Here’s what she has asked us to do:

Meme Instructions: Copy and paste the following statements in your post and complete them writing down the first thing that pops into your head. Don’t forget to link your post in the comments [of this post].

I am… impatient
I want… love
I have… fears
I wish… for stability
I hate… sadness
I fear… being rejected
I search… for meaning in my life
I wonder… if this is depressing anyone else!
I regret… marrying
I never… want to be unloved
I always… think I’m not good enough
I usually… tell myself I AM good enough
I dance… awkwardly
I sing… loud and off-key
I often… procrastinate
I sometimes… over-analyse
I cry… myself to sleep sometimes
I need… a life!
I should… socialise more
I love… my Shining Star

(That wasn’t painless, Berry…just saying!)

I wanted to mention a couple of things about this photo. Johnfrancis Laville has created this marvelously textured turban, which has been released in his mainstore, JfL Hats. It comes in 6 colours and it works with hair! I love this hat; maybe I should have said that in my answers 😉

Also, the new round of Shiny Shabby has opened and Luna Jubilee has released five new poses with mirrors for !bang. They are feminine, fun and you must have them!

You can travel the world only to find what you are looking for at home

1 You can travel the world only to find what you're looking for at home

Traveling can be a marvelous adventure. An opportunity to experience cultures and visit locations far from your own piece of the world. It can teach you more than any book or university could. It can be a time to relax, recharge and rejuvenate.

Or it can be a journey to find something you seek. Whether that is said adventure, love or simply yourself, it is not always the answer. Sometimes you can travel the world, only to find what you are looking for at home.

The theme for The Challenge this month is “Globetrotter.” Check out the participant’s main stores to find your own travel souvenirs.
