RL is kickin my trash, tryin to get back on things and
remember that fighting is how you get strong...
holding on is how you find the things that are worth while.
So if you are strugging too,
remember, this too shall pass.

I wonder how it would have been to be born in a time where castles were
the homes that were built.
I wonder what it would have been like to be born a princess.
I wonder what it would be like for the prince to choose me.
I wonder what it would be like to be adorned in riches.
I guess some things I will never know...
but I can still dream.
I am a sucker for gachas, especially if they have yummy and adorable
stuff.
But...it is easy to get carried away and pull too many times for that
wanted item.
So, I have had to pull in the reigns, work out a plan of action before going
to a support group.
Heaven knows I am already enrolled in too many of those, lol.
So here is what I have limited myself to....
and my wallet thanks me!
So, when I find something that I just can't go without...
I first, have a little talk with myself to determine if I really, really need
the item.
Then I have to decide if the rare or ultra rare is something I really
need or just can't do without.
So, if I wanna chance getting a rare, but it isn't something
I just can't do without...cuz I gotta be like all the pretty girls!
I will give myself 4 pulls.
If I get a rare, bonus, if not I have to be willing to walk away.
Then I go to marketplace or hit up some gacha yards and get the
items for half to 75 percent off beause there
are soooo many other people who can't stop pulling.
Sometime I can score the whole outfit for under 200L.
Now if I just can't go without that rare item,
sometimes it is still in my best interest to get it off marketplace.
I know I will end up pulling too many times
and it may cost me more, however I won't have anything to
sell to recoop my losses.
So if I can find it for a decent place listed, I just get it there.
If it isn't an option or people are cray cray on MP and thing
I will spend 4000L for something...(they gotta be out of their minds)
Then I limit my pulls for the rare.
Trust me, I have had machines that I pull over 40 times and never got a rare.
So, hope the designers enjoyed my linden lovings cuz it isn't gonna happen
again.
So, I limit myself to 10 pulls.
Sometimes you just gotta walk away...
and fagetaboutit!
Hope you find gachas as enjoyable as I do!!
Just be smart about them and save yourself some lindens!!
This post is more about events.
This is probably the last time I will highlight them.
I have found that the SL search engine is not very good
at finding events and really I had a friend who
taught me who was who and where to find things in SL.
There is a website for events, although it is far from complete,
you can find hot designers and subscribe with them.
I realize that groups are limited and you have to pick and choose what
you are involved with in SL.
Subscribing is a way to get notices about
whats new with each designer without
having to use a group spot.
So the best place to find some of the hottest events is through Seraphim
I really am not sure why other events do not use this amazing site.
I know me and my friends frequent the site and
you are able to preshop before hitting the laggy event.
I wish that you could just buy off that page,
like marketplace, then I could skip those laggy events
altogether.
Until then....the best way to prevent yourself and others from
lagging at the event is to get a whole body alpha,
remove your huds, (heaven knows we are all getting hudded out)
and then bam...lag free for everyone.
