I'm super sleepy and have a bit of a big weekend planned that starts tomorrow, so please look at the pretties from CandyDoll and Essences and and and ALL THE PLACES before I fall asleep at my keyboard and Qwerty the fudge out of you all!
I'm well happy with this outfit! I started with the Kimono and dolls, and everything else just kind of... accidentally fell into place. I think it's the best when that happens!
I don't have anything smart or interesting or cryptic to write about today, but it's wednesday - and apparently that equates to Hump Day, so I hope you're all enjoying yourselves, humping away or making moves to rid yourself of the hump haha.
Location : Backdrop City (I forgot to note the background, so sorry!)
I've always believed that when you apply stress to a situation it has two probable outcomes.
1. You apply the pressure slow enough, and with a steady enough hand and it actually improves the results, ending in you learning from your experiment and giving you a positive result.
2. Due to carelessness or impatience, you overload the situation causing a negative response and thus rendering your experiment a failure.
I understand this is probably fairly cryptic, but there's legitimately so much going on right now that this faux situation makes complete sense to me for several issues that i'm currently addressing.
Sometimes, life can feel like you're standing at the bottom of a giant trash mountain holding nothing but a plastic spork, when really what you need is a JCB and the team from "Hoarders".
My only option is to take one day at a time, laugh at the mistakes and the occasional rubbish bag that rolls down the mountain, and keep my chin up, because finally I can see the sunrise behind that mountain of shite.
Also, as a side note; while I consider myself a little bit of a warrior for a better understanding of mental health, and less stigmatizing, I truly believe those of us who suffer from issues need to take responsibility for ourselves sometimes too. I know from experience this is incredibly hard, it takes introspection and a certain amount of self-examination, plus the ability to be completely honest with yourself. However, behaving like a shitty person cannot be blamed on your mental health, because despite your issues, the majority of the time your decisions aren't based on your mental health, but on your personality. If you continually make shitty decisions, and they negatively affect those around you but you choose not to do anything about you, that doesn't just mean you're 'mental' and you cannot keep blaming your 'issues' for them... instead, you need to take responsibility for yourself and understand you are being a terrible person and make the changes necessary to improve that. Only YOU can do that.
Man-Pickle has been suspiciously missing lately, and I can only apologize for his sudden disappearance. However, I'm feeling 34058934% better than I have in weeks, and so hopefully -HOPEFULLY- things can get semi normal except for when I'm doing the whole RL thing which is scary and awesome and amazing and I'll fill you guys in on when there's a substantial change.
In the meantime, please check out all the awesome things from TMD before the round closes!

Allow me to introduce you to my new friend, Paradox Messmer.
Some of you might already know him, he's a pretty awesome DJ, he used to Model within the SL community and he's also a blogger and photographer.
He's joining today being the Danny to my Sandy, and all I can say is "Tell me about it, Stud!"
We were just hanging out when I mentioned the idea I had for this awesome bodysuit from Miss Chelsea, and he offered to help out so I didn't have to dual log Durex in, and as you can see he makes an "Electrifying!" Danny!!
While I faffed with the photograph we talked briefly about the movie, Grease. It was actually Dox that mentioned the fact that the movie doesn't really have a very good moral to it. I believe he said something along the lines of... "Oh yeah, just change everything about yourself and conform with the clique and you'll get the guy." or yanno.. basically words to that effect... and he's right.
For years I have watched John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John strut through Rydell High, complete with the faux teenage angst, cheery-yet oddly emo songs and inappropriate life choices, but never had I actually considered the content of the movie, and when you actually think about it the whole concept is a little off. But I suppose that's the joy of placing a few well thought out musical interludes into a film, and in a few more years I might be saying the same for the "High School Musical" franchise. :P
Happy Friday, here's hoping you find the One that YOU want. :P
Feet : Maitreya Mesh Body - Lara (These shoes are made for Slink or Maitreya only, i used the "Slink fit" option on the Belleza hud and wore my Maitreya feet)
I've spoken very briefly about the Red Light District event currently going on, the new round opened on the 15th of June and once again they've bought a plethora of wonderful creators together to offer some amazing quality items all at the event.
I am going to drop the website >Here< , you can find a BUNCH of information (including my lovely picture on the blogger page - see if you can find my photo!) including designer details, pictures of products available at the event, and all the gossip about the winners of the coveted "featured designer" trophies so far! Seriously, don't miss out - I have absolutely adored covering RLD, it has been professional, original and quality since it started four rounds ago, and I'm excited to see how it develops along it's journey, and I genuinely believe that it adds realism to the over-saturated Event-Market that seems to be taking the SL world by storm. If you have a penchant for the adult side of SL, you WILL find something here for you, and regardless of my standing as a blogger for the event, I will stand by not only the management, but the quality too.
