There's a saying I've heard the entire time I've been growing up. My mom and my nana would use it often, perhaps because we're all cut from the same cloth. We're nice enough, but we also have this policy not to let ourselves be walked on. Sometimes, I forget that. Sometimes, I forget that, and… Continue reading 99. How to… make one hell of an impression.
98. How to… strike a pose.
There's something to be said about Second Life, if for no other reason than the fact that you can create just about anything. I, for example, create poses. I didn't create the one in this particular photo - it's one of Foxcity's, with whom I am mildly obsessed right now - but the point is,… Continue reading 98. How to… strike a pose.
97. How to… be patient.
It's been... a rough time lately. Or the last couple years? A long time. Anyway, I think the point is that no matter how much life - the first or the Second one - throws at you, the key is to be patient. As much as life can knock you down, there are so many… Continue reading 97. How to… be patient.
96. How to… dip your toes into the water.
Y'all... it's been a long couple days. A long, long, long couple of days. I'm sitting here writing this in the middle of a thunderstorm because why not? We have some stuff going on in real life (who's not surprised?) and a bit of craziness to handle, and at times like this, I'm never sure… Continue reading 96. How to… dip your toes into the water.
95. How to… look pretty in pink.
Did anyone else hate the color pink when they were little? Anyone? Well, I've had this love-hate relationship with the color pink since I was little. At one point, my room was pink. Then I went through a no-pink phase, then I liked it again, and hated it again...and at some point after joining Second… Continue reading 95. How to… look pretty in pink.
94. How to… hold on.
Life can be a bumpy, horrible ride sometimes, but we've only got one, so at the end of the day, we have to try our best to live our best life... even when it's trying to kick us in the face. And you know what? This applies to Second Life as much as it does… Continue reading 94. How to… hold on.
93. How to… show your true colors.
I think so many people use that expression about showing someone's true colors in a negative light, and since I wanted to play a bit in Photoshop today and I also want to add some positive vibes in your afternoon, we're going to flip that script on its head and talk about how wonderful and… Continue reading 93. How to… show your true colors.
92. How to… recover.
I'm back from vacation, y'all, and I survived. Unless you count the nine million bug bites and the weird urge to sleep for two days despite absolutely no time change between my grandparents' house and mine... In any case, I managed to escape with what remains of my sanity (mostly) intact, and I'm glad to… Continue reading 92. How to… recover.
91. How to… survive your vacation.
Okay, so I did this photo before I left for vacation because I knew I'd run into a deadline while I was away, and I guess I didn't realize when I took this photo where I took it that it would prove to be somewhat... well, special. Look at the text on the sign next… Continue reading 91. How to… survive your vacation.
90. How to… keep the momentum going!
We're going to go beneath the surface a bit today. Sometimes, it can be hard to keep up your focus. I'll use myself as an example (bet you saw that coming, didn't you?). This week has been pretty horrible. I'm leaving for Florida tomorrow to visit my grandparents amidst a storm of family drama that… Continue reading 90. How to… keep the momentum going!
