At hunts...

you haven't really time to look around to get a deeper look at some places or stores. And oh well, my mind isn't really so good to remember all the places I have been. But I really try hard to remember them. So at the last hunt I found some cute and interesting stores and places and I wanted to go back to them, but guess what?! I didn't know where they are. So I had to tp to each of the spots of the hunt...again. But I found them and of course, I made a new landmark ;).

One of the place and store I want to show you. KOSH* ;) An awesome place to take really good pictures and playing with the windlight settings.

As you can see on this pictures I had my old look...

After I got my new look and finished the MENstuff hunt, I went back to this place and wandered around.

A little bit aside from the store, there stands a cute, good built cabin. It's called "god cabin". For me it's very seldom to see good built things in SL. Maybe I'm too seldom in SL ;). that could be one of the reasons. But anyway, I don't want to hide this cute and romantic cabin....

Ar first I was nervous, because who owns it? Is it ok to look around? Hmmm, well, no one felt distracted, when I walked around an so I got closer to this house.....

I knocked at the door.....no one answered and I was able to open the door.....shall we have a look inside? Just a sneaky one....

Wow, this house felt warm and friendly...cosy....and everything was placed at the right spot....

After a while I felt comfortable enough to take a seat in front of the warm fire....it wasn't really cold outside, but it also couldn't be a waste of time ;)

I couldn't resist and so I found out who I should give credit for such a wonderful work...The creator of this cabin is Kayle Matzerath, builder and co-owner of Garden of Dreams 1 and 2, If you want to see more of his skills, feel free to join his store ;) You will find a lot of romantic stuff for lovers, including poses and animation. Besides you can tp to different spots, like a dance area with a piano,  a forest themed area, where you will find his creations and where you can try them out.

If you aren't the type to sit in front of a warm fireplace, feel free to rest at this lovely made gazebo....

I need a rest after the long walks around this wonderful sim at one of Fang Roffo created chair ;)

Things are changing...

After a longer break from SL, I decided to sneak back for only an hour or so, I thought...But then after I figured out there were a new hunt out there, I stayed a little bit longer ;). The MENstuff hunt had cost me my last nervs pfff...a lot of these gifts where placed so good. Sometimes I wanted to give up, but the homepage of MENstuff inspired me to go ahead and to catch all gifts.

I also decided to change my look. After over 1 year of SL absence, my avi needed a general service...like you know you bring your vehicle to a body shop and the next time you pick it up, everything looks like new ;) awesome! I needed the same!! And Maverick Design gave it to me!

Doesn't it look cool! Independent?! Awesome?! Maybe a little bit sexy?! Good! Because this were my intention ;).

SKIN: LAQ ~ Emmett 05 - [Cocoa] Defined skin (Hairbase)

SHAPE: Trick Shape-Maverick Design

EYEBROWS: Trick Eyebrows-Maverick Design

EYES: [ND]Paris EyesII Blue Sky ringer

HAIR: Gritty Kitty: Owen - black

The Shape and the eyebrows are from the MENstuff hunt....I saw this gift and I wanted it! No matter what this look were made for me ;)

I saw this new skin by Maverick Design and so I manifested, I want to look like this guy. After some running around and desperate searching I found the hunt gift, opened it and got my "make me sexy" plan. The first hard thing were to get the skin. I had to go to LAQ, a full lag sim and it took me around half an hour to get to see the pictures and to find the right skin. Pfff. AND then!!!! I thought I can risk to click on it and to click the pay button and then I thought I would get my skin, but WTF!? I waited and waited, nothing happened! After a while i gave it up and looked for the customer service.

The product I bought is not in my inventory:

Please log in at www.secondlife.com and go to your transactions history. Find the purchase of the lost item. Copy and paste it into a notecard, and send the notecard to Mallory Cowen. Your lost purchase will be delivered as soon as we do our daily check on the transactions.

I did what they said. I searched for Mallory Cowen to pass her my notecard with all my information. At her profile I found this:

I am not available via IM or notecard,
Please visit our support website:
[ www.laqroki.com ]

I thought I'm dreaming! This can't be true! Are they kidding?! They own such a huge store and business and no one can give me support? I was angry, because after over one year I spent Lindens on a skin I really wanted. Not in a few days or never. I wanted it NOW!!! So I looked up for the other owner, Winter DiPrima, and sent him an upset IM and a notecard. And the same IM and notecard I sent to Mallory Cowen.

On the next day I got an email, which told me I got offered an object in SL and later at home I got my new skin ;) Well I'm a nice and friendly person and so I sent a thank you IM, but I didn't get any response. Oh well, I will survive this skin odyssey. But still I don't understand such a customer service. It seems they are making a lot of Lindens with their store and so I guess they don't need to invest anything in their customer service.

But the outcoming of this shopping hell.....I got my skin ;).

TATTOO: *kARNAL rAGE* - Celtic Heart Tattoo 2

NECKLACE: ::GB::black bead necklace MENS

BELT: [NC+]-Belt11-[Black-Vintage]

BARCELET: ::GB::crest bracelet Black_M

The necklace were a group gift from Gabriel and I think I bought the bracelet. Can't remember it, I'm sorry guys.

So now I can't wait when the next men hunt starts! Ok well, I have a lot of hunt gifts in my inventory and I should start to sort them and to show you my favorites ;)

What an amazing skybox...

After over 1 year and a laptop death I decided to try again SL and wow! Things have changed. My old landmarks doesn't really work anymore and a new SL viewer. I barley remember this one, but I tried hard to decline it. But now with my new laptop I can sneak into SL and can explorer SL new. Art hasn't changed. It is still a hobby. I love to find new interesting places and to play around with the environment editor and when I don't like something I erase it with Photoshop 7.

And I still check the SL marketplace. Today I found something which made me breathless! I'm sure this one exists for long, but today finally I found it too ;).

[what next] Coastal Loft Skybox Furnished

Awesome skybox!! I wish I would have a place to set it up in SL. And bw. I wish I would have so much Lindens to buy it :(. This skybox is great! I love it! Well done! I'm not so into SL homes or so, but this one wow!

Here some pics to get an idea about what I'm talking ;). Well, I guess I have to start saving some Lindens ;). I want this one!

Good luck! ;)

Wonderful...

heart touching song.

OH OH OH OH MYYYYY!!!!

Guys!! A new hunt!!! I just saw it on the Make Him Over blog. Awwwwwww!! It's called the Pro Poser Hunt. Na, they still work on it, but it should start on 15th of August. Visit the ProPosers blog to read more about it and to be updated ;). Hmmm, gut entry message on this site..."You suck....And we don't like you" Hehehe Cool statement, folks!!!

Mushroomaniac ;)

When you have a new home, you try to make it so comfy as possible. I had a look on xstreetsl and found a lot of cute things ;). On my mind were to get a romantic and breath taking bath tub. I think after a lot of time and articles, I found a lovely one. Oh, it was one which I liked and also the style hmmmm lovely ;). But I learned from my mistakes on xstreetsl and so I decided to tp to this store. And indeed, wow, I was very surprised to see it InWorld and of course, I tried it out :).

You know me and I'm horrible nosy. Pfff. I had a closer look at this store, it's called Lauwarme Main Store at T2 Studio. The owner and creator, Emina Jewell, loves to create pieces with details. From a cute tea set up to jewerly or furniture, there is no limit set for her creative side :). She is from Japan and she also writes a blog, but, puuuhhh, I'm not very well in Japanese and so I tried the translator. Hmmm, well, bad thing at this, it only translate what the translator thinks it is to translate. Pffff. Anyway, Emina Jewell started around 2007 with jewerly creations and with the time her skills grew and her ideas are lovely. You also can see her stuff on xstreetsl :). You can read her blog, here and see her pics, here ;). Well, you shouldn't wonder about the language, I'm a visual person and so I only need pics, but you can try to use a translator, but I wouldn't, it messed up more as I understood. She also created a cute sofa set, called RoseSofa Set. Looks cute too. This time I choose to get these adorable mushrooms with 2 different sit animations, well only 80 L$. So, It doesn't cost the world and they look awesome in the garden. When I took the pics, you can see some little white sparks, which spread out of the mushroom. Cute!

And well, I couldn't resist. I had to go there again to get this lovely kitchen gardening set. Ok, the price were 250 L$, but as you can see, it's very relaxing and I do something productive :). Damn it! Where were the carrots again?! Pff This box isn't so big, that I can't find them!!! Pfff. I guess after this I need an extra rest on the couch in front of my TV. Hehehe

But guess what! I always forgot to get this bath tub! Damn it!! Loooool

Before Sleep :)

I should get dressed. Well, today was a busy day, I sorted out old stuff and I opened new gift boxes. Yes! I know! I'm not done yet Pfff. Is it my fault, when the designers create such cool and good clothes?! I guess, not. :) You can't blame me for this ;).

So therefor, I don't want to hide this cute shirts ;) It came in the box of the JFTG Hunt number 59. And it looks soooo cute. Do you see the little kitty? Awwwww! It is showing her cute little tongue hehehe. Na, and the little sad panda?? Great! I do love these shirts. Well, they came with other shirts too, but hmmm, no, this 2 ones are my favorites. So did you get nosy?? I hope. You can get them until 31st of July, as gift hunt :). You can find them at "Before Sleep". Better you get there before it is sold out :). Bad part :( it isn't transferable! :(

Well, I thought, I would be done with this post, but when I wrote it, the title remained me on something....One sec! I'll show you....

HA! What do you say to this?? Looool. That's my Batman Pj's. I got it at the MHO Hunt, gift number 146 ;). Hmmm, well, as kid I loved it. The cartoon version was funny, stupid but, funny :). So now I wear my pj's and so I'm ready to go to bed. Nighty night, folks!
