On the Move

I was not very happy when I logged into Second Life yesterday only to discover that the SIM I lived on was being done away with and that I needed to immediately move. I would have appreciated just a little bit of notice so that I could be searching for somewhere to relocate to. It also saddened me because the island was so green and pretty. Thankfully, it only took me about thirty minutes to find a suitable replacement that was green with very little lag. I love an ocean view both in real life and second life, but I’m not a fan of sand. I much prefer and ‘Irish’ green. My new home provides the luxury of both!

In the rush to move my Second Life home yesterday, I didn’t really have time to make a new post. On Saturday, I posted a review on English Rain, the new skin from Siss Boom, which has turned out to be my most popular post of all time! I did not include a picture for the makeup layer in that post due to some technical difficulties, but I have taken a picture of it and would love for all of my readers to see how beautiful it is! The Makeup 01 tattoo layer is included with the English Rain skin and can also be purchased separately for L$95.

Gatcha Some Tea!

There's nothing better on a hot summer day than a tall glass of sweet iced tea! Radio Signals, designer and owner of Scribble, sent me copies of her completely adorable teapots she made for the Albero Summer Gatcha Festival. I honestly didn't know what a gatcha was, but when I got to the SIM I figured it out pretty quickly. Everyone remembers the gumball machines from when we were kids... Welp, that is what a gatcha is except in Second Life form! The designer loads the machine with various colors and/or designs, and you pay a set price to get a random prize. Between the two gatcha vendors Scribble has set up, there are six colors of the teapots you can win. Each teapot has a pose included with it if you would like to wear it, or they are perfect to use for decor as well! Each pot includes one pose with four possible poses from the machines. There are also four possible styles of the teapots and a rare style with a steeping tea bag! The possibilites are endless and each chance costs only L$15!

Of course I had to look around at the other machines while I was there and found some pretty neat things from several different designers which include Doppelganger Inc., loveme, Forest Feast, LouLou&Co and Lazy Places.
