Book Meme by Strawberry Singh

Usually I have no luck when it comes to win prizes but I like to participate because you never know when the luck will hit you in the face and I love the fact that I gain more experience. In february was ColdLogic second anniversary and there was a huge sale and of course a photography contest in wich I managed to enter in the last day so I am sorry for posting this after the hole madness but I bet you guys already know and will forgive me :P.

Happy Anniversary ColdLogic !!

Today it's a first for me because I started to learn how to make hair more windy type in photoshop. And by the way, this hair I am wearing is Maleficent from Lelutka and it's my new number one favorite hair in SL at the moment. I don't know how can I explain because really isn't anything to explain on how this hair looks you just have to try a demo and you will see why I love it so much. 

In real life I love high heels and I wear them with every occasion I have so I was very pleased when Slink released high heels but at that moment I didn't had the budget to purchase them. Now I finally bought them and I was able to wear my new Miranda Heels from fri.day wich are gorgeous. 

I didn't have the time to make proper pics for Berry's new book meme so I'll just share the ansewars bellow. Have a wonderful weekend lovelies !!

1. Are you a bookworm? – Yes and no. I love reading but I don't always have the time.

2. Which book is your favorite? –  I can't decide to choose only one: ' Gone with the wind ' by
Margaret Mitchell; ' Once I Was a Princess: A Mother's Worst Nightmare' by Jacqueline Pascarl; ' Floris my love ' by Jacqueline Monsigny and ' Pride and Prejudice ' by Jane Austen, what a shocker right? :))

3. Which children’s book is your favorite? – ' The tale of the pig ' by Ion Creanga ( roumanian writer )

4. What’s the last book you’ve read? – ' Emma ' ( not finished yet ) by Jane Austen

5. Name your top five favorite writers: – Jane Austen, Nora Roberts. I forget really quick the names of authors.

6. Name a book that had a strong impact on you: – Growing Up bin Laden: Osama's Wife and Son Take Us Inside Their Secret World and Infidel by Ayaan Hirsi Ali

7. Favorite and least favorite book genres? – Favorite genres it is romance, mistery and action. Least favorite is science fiction.

8. Favorite and least favorite book-to-movie adaptions? – If I read a book and after that I watch a book-to-movie adaptation I always search the same action as in the book and it is impossible to make a perfect adaptation and maybe some of the scenes from the book are cut out from the movie. I have a love and hate thing for 'Gone with the wind' because it is an exceptional movie and Carry Grant is delicious but it will never beat the actual book.

9. Have you ever bought a book based on the cover alone? – Nope. But I do read books of wich I haven't heard if the title is appealing.

10. Do you go to the library? – Nope.

11. How many books do you own? – I never in my life bought a book. I read what I have in my familly's library. I have a few hundreds, maybe 300-400 books.

12. If you were to write a book about Second Life, which topic would you focus on? When I was a noob I found out a few stories about people. SL can be sometimes a perfect place for all kind of psychos, rude, anti-social and so on but there are also good people with cute stories about their second life. I would write about people and experiences with them.

What I like about Enchantment event ? It's lasting 3 months and therefore is no rush and more likely people who are not so up to date with fashion events in SL won't miss it. And let's face it who doesn't love to dress up like their favorite characters from our childhood stories.

Because I got to the point of mentioning about childhood I want to say that it is outrageous that kids this days prefer to stay in front of a laptop or a tablet or their parents expensive smartphone instead of going out to play or to do stupid things such as get in to all puddles ( when I was a kid I liked to smash the thin ice above the puddle and of course 90% of the times my feet slighted in to water ). I will stop here because I get really angry and I won't stop rambling about this subject for the next hour or so.

Back to the topic of Enchantment , oh my god how much I love this sensual dress from Peqe. I just hope I didn't overprocess this pictures, it really isn't my style but I got carried away with Pickmonkey filters.

UPDATE: I forgot to mention that I took this pictures at 'It all starts with a smile' sim wich at the moment isn't available for public because it's being changed for spring so this is just a small preview of it. But Kaelyn told me it will open it's virtual doors for large public in march so it won't be so long until you guys can visit this gorgeous sim. I can't praise enough about Kae's talent of decorating a full sim and making it looking so damn good. Good job Kae, it looks fantastic <3 p="">

Vista Animations: for her and him !

Do you remember wich stores you crossed when you were a noob and still love them after a few months, years etc. ? I have three years and two months in SL and maybe three years and one month since I've encounter Vista Animations. As any newbie I started to ask arround and to do some research about this platform, as I can't really call SL a game, so I found out about AO's ( Animation Override ) and this HUD is giving you options to move in different ways. Also I found the perfect skin at that time and hair so I really wanted to enhance my avatar but being a host in a club I didn't gain enough money to afford all this stuff and as quick as I finished each working session I ran at shops to buy clothes.

The days were passing and my desires grew so I decided to buy some lindens to make Roxi move sexy and lustful with the newest AO at that time called Chica Boom, wich was inspired by a video from a roumanian singer. Before SL I wasn't a gamer, I tried a few games when I was little but I got bored, but SL was so fascinating and when I saw I can control my avatar with a HUD I was astonished. Chica Boom was my first AO and my first love in this category but years have passed and many releases were made till now, till the newest AO from Vista Animations and my favorite not only because of the name wich by the way is Cosmopolitan ( :D ) but because of the quality and the smoothness of the moves.

Cosmopolitan AO has calm,self confident, femenine and elegant moves. For more informations I will write down the words of Vista Barnes and his team:

" Calm, relaxed, beauty, sexy, elegant she has it all!

This is an AO that you can wear in any situation: from nightclub, shopping, catwalk, from the beach to the bar and you will look the very essence of woman wearing it.

Aaaaand there is a new add-on "Two Sexy Chicks" made for Vista Couples HUD or AO HUD 4.x and contains 16 female-female couple dances.

Emma

The 1st month of this year has been quite busy for me as I've managed to find not one but two jobs, one is full time and the other one is part time and I can go whenever I want. Still, I wasn't able to log in too much as I had to accommodate with both but now I can manage better my time and finally I can return to my passion, to my dearest little blog and you my lovely readers.

When I tried Emma from Essences I felt in love with her sweet but yet sexy features and if you like her as much as I do I want to say that it is available at The Season Story. I was imagining Emma with a cute coat and a bun so I found the perfect match from Meli Imako and  luckly I already had this super sweet hair bun from Liquence. 

Aren't this tights and heels the sweetest from all SL ? The tights are from Miss Izzie and the heels I am wearing ( and by the way if you didn't saw I've matched my nails with this heels :D ) are from fri.day and you must own Slink Medium Feet to be able to wear them.

Practical Jokes Meme by Strawberry Singh

I wish an awesome and Happy New Year to all my readers and I am indeed happy I can finally start a new blogging year. Till now I was busy with holidays and after that with some work in rl, that is the reason I haven't been so active in the past month.

After some time I become a blogger I found myself becoming more lonely and more busy in sl. Usually you can find me putting together a perfect home or a perfect outfit, I find it hard to go out socialize though in rl I am oposite to what I am in sl. I remember how much fun I used to have in sl and now is like I grew up from being a childish little girl to a serious career women, I kind of forgot how can a person have fun here in our little virtual world. Would you teach me to have fun again? :)

This was a little introduction to Berry's new Practical Jokes Meme:

Meme Instructions: Share one or more practical jokes that either you have played on others or others have played on you inworld. If you have pictures or videos to share of it, even better. Don’t forget to leave a link to your post in the comments.

1. There is one particular joke my two old friends from sl who have deleted me from their list made me, we used to call eachother and make conference in rl and one day wich I belive it was 1st april ( Prank Day, wich I forgot about )  they called to ask me on what street I live because they are in my town and they want to pay me a visit. Of course at first I was very excited till I figured out it was just a prank so we had a very good laugh. 

2. We had editing permissions from each other so we constantly returned the platform to fall when one or all of us weren't paying attention. 

This is all I can remember right now, have fun !!
