So sick in RL. No words of wisdom to be told.
I think I need some Tai food.
Anyone gonna get me some???
Double ear infection and sinus infection...
shoot me!!
One of my most favorite places that I have
had the privilage to visit is the Carribean.
The white sand and warm water are so titalizing.
I dream of being able to visit again.
Until that day, I have so many great memories!
One of my favorite performers is Lorena Makennitt.
I saw her perform at a small concert up on the University campus.
She is incredible. Her voice is that of an angel
and the way she plays the cello is amazing.
I use her music to massage, as I am a massage therapist in rl.
If you are not familiar with her work, check her out.
Makes me wanna play the cello.
The Fashion For Life committee is proud to announce the dates for Second
Life's 10th Annual Clothing Fair benefiting Relay For Life of Second
Life. This event has become a mainstay of the fashion community and we
are excited to continue the tradition with a special 10th anniversary
event. The event will open its doors on March 6th 2016 and run for 14
days, closing at 6pm SLT on March 20th.
This event began as a dream 10 years ago with 34 designers participating
all with a special reason to fund raise for Relay For Life. Since that
date, it has grown to over 180 Designers covering 10 sims and has raised
close to 20 million Linden Dollars for Relay For Life and the American
Cancer Society . To celebrate this Special Event and Milestone,
Amethyst Starostin and Nevar Lobo, the founders of the Clothing Fair in
2006, have returned to plan this amazing event.
This year is going to be a trip back in time and Celebrate the history
of the Clothing Fair (Fashion for Life). Prepare to be immersed in 10 of
the greatest sims built by some of Second Life's most talented
builders. What is the Theme you ask ? Well its : " THAT'S
ENTERTAINMENT"
We are looking forward to presenting 14 days of shopping from some of
the most dedicated designers here in Second Life. Each one is committed
to raising as much money for Relay for Life of Second Life and the
American Cancer Society as possible.
This year we are again inviting the Live Musicians and DJ's of Second
Life to join us. T1 Radio will be covering 24/ 7 through out the fair ,
fund raising and letting us all know just what can be found through out
the 10 sims.
But that is not all:
With over 150 designers, we will also offer One of A Kind Auctions,
Fashion Shows, Treasure Hunt, and a Photo Contest. Also, the fabulous
Elysium Cabaret Dance troupe will be there to perform not one but two
shows during the event.
I am strong because I know my weaknesses.
I am beautiful because I am aware of my flaws.
I am fearless because I learned to recognize illusion from reality.
I am wise because I learn from my mistakes.
I am a lover because I have felt hate.
I am hopeful because I see beauty in everything.
We all struggle with beautiful.
Either you are not pretty enough,
or you are too pretty.
Where do you find that perfect balance?
All you need to know is you are beautiful in your own right.
You do not have to be on a cover of a magazine to be beautiful.
Find your best aspects about yourself and accentuate those.
Love who you are and be happy in your own skin.
In the last year I have been going through cancer treatments
with a friend of mine who has breast cancer.
My mom's best friend is also going through it as well.
My friend from across the states, back in NC has been going through
it with her mom.
Breast cancer seems to be everywhere.
Don't think it won't effect you.
Eventually either you or someone you love will have to deal with it.
Or you may lose someone you love.
Lets join together and make sure that
nobody has to suffer through this.

About the National Breast Cancer Foundation
The
National Breast Cancer Foundation was founded in 1991 by breast cancer
survivor, Janelle Hail. She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1980 at
the age of 34. At the time of her diagnosis, there was little
information about the disease, and she was forced to make a decision
about her health with few options. After her treatment, Janelle made a
commitment to help women around the world by educating them about breast
cancer and the importance of early detection. NBCF’s mission is to
save lives through early detection and to provide mammograms for those
in need. This mission includes increasing awareness through education,
providing diagnostic breast care services for those in need, and
providing nurturing support services.
I am sure you have seen the mashups that people are doing these days.
Taking a bunch of different songs and mashing them up to create a really
fun and high energy song of its own.
If you haven't see them, check out my video below...
it will take you places you have not thought about.
That is how this summer has been for me, a mashup of
old and new, fun and sad...
So here is to mashing it up.
That is what life is all about.
Tip of the Day:
If I put something into my blog that is no longer available
it is because I know myself, and half the time I do not know what I have in my
inventory. So before feeling total dispare over it, check your own inventory. You just
might already have it.
