It's a Relaxing Vacation for Me!

Dear Diary:

"A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken." 

(James Dent)
 

It's vacation time for me.  I've been looking forward to having a little R&R since my last time off.  I usually take a trip but I did go away in March so I thought I would just stay at home.  Of course, being the type A personality that I am, I have a definite agenda to rigidly follow.

I'll start off the day by thinking of what I have to do...

...followed by some intensive exercising of biceps and forearms...

...accompanied by staying hydrated after the workout on a hot day...

...culminating in a reprieve from the exhaustive schedule I just completed.  

Guess I'll have to go back to work just to get some rest.

I'll see you in a couple of weeks.

Good Night for now.

I Love This Summer Weather

Dear Diary:

Last January all I could think of was summer - hot sun, hot sand, and cool swimming.  My wish came true.  The temperature this past weekend was 34C (in the 90's) so I gathered my friends and we hit the beach.

We went to the beach in the Fotoscape location.  There are several opportunities for picture taking.  Beach chairs are available and if you're a member of this group, you can rez some of your own items for added props. 

I'll remember this day the first time I put the snow shovel in my hands.

Good Night for now.

Wildlife Can Be Dangerous When You're Driving

Dear Diary:

In my part of Canada, the moose is a magnificent looking animal.  He's not pretty or cute but he is very unique.  He can also be dangerous at various times of the year, usually in the fall, around mating season.  However, lately there's been a warning that moose are coming out of the bush onto roads causing lots of car accidents.  Why? Because of the mosquitoes and black flies!

The summer weather has been very wet this year, with rain several times during the week.  Ordinarily by this time, when hot weather is prevalent, those pesky insects are gone.  Still flying around now, the flies are bothering the moose so they're coming out of the bush.

 

 

Most moose are found in Canada, with an estimate of a million animals.  The moose live in the boreal forests of the north where there are cooler temperatures.  They are good swimmers so live near marshes or river banks.  Being plant eaters, moose get their food from new tree shoots or from aquatic plants.  Due to a remarkable and complex mouth and nose, they are the only members of the deer family that can eat under water.

 

On average, an adult moose can stand roughly 2 metres (6 feet) at the shoulder and weigh as much as 360 kg (about 800 lb) so when a car and a moose collide, it can be lethal.  Seatbelts or air bags don't offer much support.  Most drivers try to avoid hitting this animal, by running their car off the road themselves.

 

I've never had an accident with a moose but one has run along side of my car.  When looking out the side window, I could only see legs running along with me.  A little intimidating for sure!

Stay safe on the highway.

 

Good Night for now.

I'm A Bad Girl Gone Good

Dear Diary:

Last week, I, along with most of my friends in my second world, took a trip to Hair Fair.  While we were having a blast trying on all the demos, I looked across at my friend Kiki and gasped, "Where did you get that hair?  I HAVE to know!!".  The look instantly took me back to my early "anti-establishment" days in my real world, and I knew I had to buy that hair.

This was exactly how I looked.  My hair was shaved and bleached blonde with black streaks.  It was a bit more spiky but close enough.  The tats were not as evident; the piercings were not so few but this look was me for sure.  It brought back thoughts of those years of rebellion.  It made me laugh when I pictured myself as I used to be.  Who would have thought?

Thanks for the memories.

Good Night for now.

Thinking About my Hidden Secrets

Dear Diary:

No one knows I have a second life.

No one knows who I am in my second world.

No one knows who I am on this blog.

Oh yes.  I have secrets.  But why?  Do you know?

I think the majority of my friends or family could not understand why I'm in this world.  I'm sure it would be difficult for them to comprehend how I could have a lovely home, an interesting career and a great variety of friends that I truly cherish, and all belong in a virtual world.  That idea is a hard concept for some of the older members in my family...and maybe some of the younger ones too!

My friends in this second world really are important to me but I haven't told any of them who I am in real life.  I've given them a name but it's only partially right.  I've given them a location of where I live but that's only half true.  I haven't shared very much of my personal life.  My real identity is still unknown.

The worst secret is that I'm writing this blog, something that I love accomplishing and no one in my first world or my second world knows that I'm doing this.  I like what I'm writing and proud of the things I produce.  But I'm not sharing it with anyone, in any world.

Sometimes it baffles me why I keep these secrets.  Sometimes I want to blurt out everything.  Sometimes I would like to share but...

I don't.

A New Store to Me #10

Dear Diary:

I discovered a new store to me the other day and was very excited at some of the things I saw.  The store is called Vitrimi.

I bought this dress thinking it would be perfect for an afternoon garden tea.  It comes in 5 colours - white, red or beige with black trim and black or navy with white trim.  I chose the navy since I had a fascinator that I was dying to wear.  I knew it would be perfect with a navy dress.

Vitrimi offers a lovely selection of dresses.  Some are quite sexy while others offer a lot of cover.  The colours and patterns are abundant.  The casual section has different types of pants and a variety of tops to mix and match.  I made a quick return visit yesterday and saw that Vitrimi is now offering clutch purses and a small selection of shoes compatible with Slink feet.  On the whole, I was impressed with what the store is offering.  

The store has a second floor but no inventory is available there yet.

Right now the group list is relatively small so there is no fee for joining.  Even though you have to pay $1L for the group gifts, you receive very generous fatpacks of the item.  The newest gift is an outfit with 4 dfferent patterned skater girl skirts and a pop top in black or white.  The other group gifts are still offered in the store.

This is a very nice place to shop.  It's easy to see the merchandise and the items are displayed very well.  Fly on over and take a peek at Vitrimi.

Good Night for now.

A Trip to Summerfest 14

Dear Diary:

It was a beautiful weekend in both my worlds so I decided to take a quick run to Summerfest 14.  I had been early on but the crowds were so big that I had a hard time getting around.  This time it was perfect!

I picked up this bikini from Nylon Outfitters that came in so many colours, it was hard to choose.  The price was right so I picked up a couple of them.  This one went well with my mask and flippers.  Now, out to the beach!

The swimming was great once the water calmed down.

Only a week left to visit Summerfest for some terrific buys.

Good Night for now.

Happy Birthday Canada!

Dear Diary:

Canada ranks as the second largest country in the world.  Canada has the longest coastline in the world at 243,792 km.  And Canadian Joe Shuster co-created Superman for DC Comics.   These were three facts about Canada that I didn't know.

July 1st marks Canada's 147th birthday.  For this occasion, Historica Canada put out a quiz of 15 questions that every Canadian should be able to answer.  The survey covered everything from politics to geography with some social aspects thrown in.  I got 10 correct.

About 92% of the people surveyed said Canadians are polite (Isn't that a standard joke about us?);  86% agreed there is definitely a "Canadian identity" (Of course, eh?); and 89% are proud of their heritage (Agree to that!).  However, 44% of the respondents could not name 2017 as Canada's 150th anniversary and 11% could not identify the correct opening lines of the national anthem, "O Canada" (I DID get that right!)  To see the results, check here.

Have a wonderful July 1st.

Good Night for now.

The Creation.jp Event

Dear Diary:

I've always admired and been in awe of the very talented creators in Second Life, in particular the Japanese innovators.  I've been a fan of theirs ever since I happened upon this world several years ago.  In my closet, I have many items designed and manufactured by these inventors.  So, I was extremely pleased to see an event, Creationjp where I could go and see a lot of different Japanese designers.  Some were new to me so I enjoyed seeing what they produced.  

I love the red polka dot blouse I'm wearing.  This is my first liquid mesh purchase.  It fits well and does move very nicely when I move.  The sailor dress has several options, and can be worn as separate pieces so you can make the most out of the outfit.

I understand from the official Creation.jp website that this will be a regular event.  The current session started on June 21st and will run until July 15th.  The items on display cover not only clothing, but hair, shoes and a prop with poses.  All are quality items, made with ingenuity and attention to detail.  The vendors can be seen here.

Good Night for now.

The First Day of Summer

Dear Diary:

Yes, June 21 not only marks the first day of summer, but it is the longest day of the year.  My friend Chloe and I went to the beach to celebrate.

The sun is the farthest north at this time of year but you'd never know it in my part of the north.  The temperature at it's highest today, will be 12C or about 54F.  It's raining now and is expected to continue until tonight.  This is the first day of summer??  Good thing I've got my second world to be in.  Here it is always summer.

Good Night for now.

My Avatar is a Corpse

Dear Diary:

It's a very interesting meme this week.  I'm not sure if I should answer as Dreamer or as me....hmmmm....or are they the same????

1. What would you eat for your last meal?
Probably a wonderful looking mesh dish with 0 calories.  As for me, it would be a rotini pasta with jalapenos, sweet peppers, and black olives.  Oh and lots of garlic and olive oil.

2. Where do dead avatars go?
They never die.  They just go on and on and on and....

3. Have you ever been to a cemetery in SL? If so, which one(s)?
I've been to Linden Memorial several times.  I also had a friend who died in our first world.  All of her friends set up a memorial location for her.  I go there often.

4. What would you like them to do at your avatar wake?
I would like the same thing as I would in my first world.  I want a big party with my favourite songs being played; lots of good food; lots of wine; and plenty of laughs.

5. What would you like it to say on your avatar tombstone?
"This name is no longer available."

6. Which is worse, when a good friend moves away, or losing touch with a good friend who lives right near you?
It would be impossible to choose which would be worse.  They're both traumatic.

7. If you knew that everyone you know was going to die tomorrow, who would you visit today?
I would visit my family, in all worlds.

8. If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don’t like and like so many things we don’t do?
Humans have choices. Unfortunately a lot of extras, such as family background, expectations and personality, get in the mixture to bring us to a choice.   Sometimes it's good --sometimes it isn't.  That's what makes us so interesting.

9. If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be?
Live life like it's never going to end.

10. What color is your underwear?
If I said, I'm not wearing any right now, would that be Dreamer or me.....hmmmmm???

A Pet That's Perfect for Me

Dear Diary:

I live in the tropics.  The water is always sparkling blue; fluffy white clouds in the sky; and, beautiful sand between my toes.  Maybe I picked this location because my first world is far far from that scenario.  But I love living there with plants in full bloom all year round. 

Many of my friends in my second world have pets - dogs, cats, and assorted exotic species.  I wanted a pet too but one that fit into my locale.  And I got the perfect one for me.

I thought a flamingo was just right for my home.  He walks and eats from the water.  He does come up onto the sand to greet me.  He's really no trouble at all and he certainly didn't need to be house trained.  I don't know how much of a guard flamingo he is.  He really is very friendly.  I haven't named him yet but I'm thinking of getting him a companion so he's not alone when I travel.

Perfect for me!

Good Night for now.

June is Graduation Month Everywhere (it seems)

Dear Diary:

It's Graduation time.  I've been to lots.  This week...this year...in my lifetime.

My first convocation was from high school.  I was not a devoted student but I made it through Grade 13.  I got my diploma but boycotted the ceremony.  I was protesting - something - but I can't remember what.  My next graduation came after my first foray at university.  I opted out from that ceremony too.  Back again at university, I was faced with  the last chance for partaking in a commencement.  My Mother begged me to at least go once to let her see me actually progress out of some school.  I went.

Now students seem to have a grad at every turn on their educational track.  I've gone to a kindergarten grad, with cap and gown; a junior elementary grad; and of course the senior public school convocation.  I've attended a high school gala, a college ceremony and a university commencement all in one week.  Yes, it's passages, rituals and part of growing up.  Of course, it's satisfying for the family to know that it's finally over...or is it?

Good Night for now.

1. What are your thoughts about Fitted mesh? At first I thought Fitted Mesh might fix the problems that some of us were having with fitting Mesh clothes, especially if altering our avatar was not an option.  I've tried a couple of tops and pants in Fitted Mesh and it doesn't seem to fit me as well as I thought it would. I was disappointed and have not acquired any more Fitted Mesh clothing.
2. Have you tried any of the new fitted mesh avatars released by Linden Lab? What do you think of them?  No I haven't tried the new avatars.  I've seen a few and they look interesting but have no desire to try one out.  I was told by one that hair and clothing doesn't always fit them.
3. Have you tried any fitted mesh avatars/bodies created by residents?  I haven't tried these either. 
4. Have you tried a mesh head? What are your thoughts about mesh heads?  Yes I have tried a few demos of the mesh head.  I really don't care for them.  When I looked at myself wearing the head, it just wasn't me.  I've developed my facial look and I'm attached to it.  It felt like I was wearing a mask.
5. Do you foresee a lot of changes to our current Second Life avatars because of fitted mesh? I imagine it's bound to happen.  Mesh feet and mesh hands are well accepted now so I guess the head and body will be standard in the future.  However, I don't think everyone will want to be a cookie cutter copy of others so there always will be individuality.

Who Loves Dogs More Than Cats?

Dear Diary:

While watching the news the other day, I heard that a recent study was done by a university to determine the difference between a cat owner and a dog owner so I perked up my ears.  I am a dog lover. 

I have been a dog owner in my first world for many years.  When I was a kid, my family always owned a dog and had so since before I was born.  At one time we had two together, which proved difficult when the older one died first.  The dog that was left was devastated and refused to eat for days.  As an adult, I had an American Cocker Spaniel for 15 years and when she died, I was the one who couldn't eat for days.  But back to the news...

This study cited that dog owners were "energetic, outgoing and followed the rules".  I thought that was pretty good.  Cat owners were supposedly "introverted, open minded and generally scored higher on IQ tests".  Humph!!

The report didn't say how many people had been part of the study or what questions were asked but I think I'm going to have to write that university a letter!

Good dog, good dog.

Personal Questions for the Meme

Dear Diary:

It was a beautiful weekend in my real world and it seems to have run over to today.  It's about time!!  We need some warm weather to get rid of the chill of that horrible winter.  So when Berry put out her Monday Meme and it required thinking on my part, I decided to find a chair some place on the beach to sit and think about my answers to all the questions.

1. When and how did you discover Second Life?  I came into Second Life in March of 2008.  A friend had previously joined the year before and told me what a great time she was having so I thought I'd give it a try.
2. Did you know about virtual worlds before or was this your first experience with them?  I really wasn't experienced with virtual worlds.  I had no idea what it would be like.  I played SIMS a few times so I thought it might be the same.
3. Has Second Life met your expectations?  I didn't come to Second Life with any preconceived ideas so I had no expectations to fill but it has been more than I thought it would be. 
4. If you could teleport back to the first ten minutes of your avatar’s slife, what would you tell yourself? Don't be in such a hurry to do everything.  Take your time and enjoy the world. 
5. How long did it take you to master avatar flying and driving vehicles inworld?  That's funny!  I'm not sure I've mastered either of those things YET!  I spend a lot of time just walking into things let alone flying. 
6. Do you have a mystery alt?  Yes I do.  None of my friends know about my "alter ego". 
7. Is your SL avatar a reflection of you, or someone you wished you could be?  She is totally me.  Perhaps the physical attributes are slightly different but personality, and emotionally it's me.  I can't be someone I'm not so everything about her is just me. 
8. Is there an individual you met in SL that inspired you in your RL? How?  Shortly after  I arrived, I met a woman who helped me with the simplest things, like how to dance, shopping, getting my first AO.  She was extremely kind and patient with me and always willing to answer my stupid questions.  I got to know her in both worlds.  I didn't know it but she was very ill.  She died.  She showed me what strength can do in the face of adversity. 
9. Do you feel it is easier to create stronger bonds/relationships with people you meet inworld as opposed to the real world?  No.  This is still a "virtual" world.  I believe the face-to-face contact is still the best way to form a relationship with someone.  However, I have made friends in Second Life that have also become real life friends, so even though we have not met directly, I do have a connection with them.
10. Did you ever imagine or believe people could fall in love with someone they never met before Second Life?  Of course.  There are many online dating sites where people talk and fall in love without meeting so I guess it could happen in Second Life too. 
11. How has your perspective of dating changed (or not) since you started playing second life?  No, nothing has changed.
12. How has your perspective of employment changed (or not) since you started playing second life?  I didn't realize that people in this world could make a living until I read an article concerning a land owner who had made thousands of [real] dollars selling and renting property.  I imagine the creators in Second Life also make some money and I'm sure as this virtual world goes on, more people will find this is a way for employment. 
13. Name three things in both your lives that overlap each other significantly.  Love of fashion; love of music; love of "newness"  
14. If you could live your life more immersively in a virtual world, would you? (Kind of like the Matrix)  Oooohhhh....yes....definitely...as long as I could leave when I wanted to.  
15. How do you think behavior changes for people if they’re inworld vs in real world? Why do you think that is?  Many people hide behind their avatar.  It provides anonymity so their behaviour can be as repulsive as they want it to be. 
16. How has second life consumerism changed your perception of spending habits, the value of money, the need to be “bleeding edge” with fashion?  I think I answered in #7 that I'm exactly like Dreamer.  So I don't need to be "bleeding edge" with fashion but I do contribute to the Second Life economy [healthily I might add].
17. Do you think virtual worlds like SL drive and redefine human interaction or do they narrow and limit it?  Perhaps SL simultaneously drives interaction and limits it.  I think virtual worlds help a lot of people who tend to be shy in our first world.  In Second Life you can talk to anyone and join groups without having to meet someone first.  However, you're still sitting behind a computer, by yourself, so it doesn't encourage one to move on and out of that room. 
18. If technology progressed tomorrow to allow you to send emotions to people the way you’d send text or voice messages, would it enrich your SL experience or infringe on it?  I believe we all send emotions in some way or other right now. 
19. Name three skills you attribute to having learned or honed in second life alone.  photography, creativity and of course...dancing!
20. If your grand kids googled your Second Life Avatar’s name, would they be intrigued, disgusted, proud or something else?  This question really made me laugh.  By the time my grandkids would ever be on a computer, computers might be replaced by immersive technology.  Then there would be more interesting things for them to do then log in to Second Life to read ole Grannie's diary. 

Good Night for now.
