Guilty Confessions

It’s Meme time again! Today Meme is going to share some guilty confessions – SL Guilty Confessions, so I thought I should style eddgy and not so me so I could hide behind a mask while confessing. :D

If you don’t know who is Meme, check out Strawberry’s blog for the details. This is my 5th Meme post and you can read the rest of my posts here!

Meme instructions: Share 1 to 10 of your top second life guilty confessions.

1. I am a multi tasker in RL but I find it hard to do that in SL. Reason being I find the screen, folders, notecards switching very irritating and I usually stop whatever I am doing if I have to chat with someone.  I have a friend in SL that can do like 10 things the same time and still chat with me like she hasn’t left the box for a second and I really wish I could do the same so I am able to achieve more with my limited inworld time.  Unfortunately multi tasking in SL is just not my forte.

2. I am a gacha addict.  I don’t like gacha in RL and never played any but I have trouble stop playing gacha in SL.  >.<

3. As much as I love to have a job in SL, I don’t commit to one now because of the many poor paymasters I have came across here.  I understand SL has its’ own currency and values of things and it is hard to compare to RL money but to deliver a job or services in SL we are still using RL time so when I look at the pay per real time hour and the demands from the employer plus the delay in payment or “pretend to forget to pay situations” in SL, it turned me off.  We are not only investing RL time to perform a task in SL but also the opportunity cost of RL to be here by request. So employers in SL, all you can do is to live up to your side of the bargain to pay on time and pay what you have promised because what you have got from your staffs are really worth more than what they have delivered; and if you have found good staffs you need to work extra harder than RL to retain them!

4. I guess all of us do silent boycotting to some extend.  I hate poor customer service and I have walked away from some brands because of that.  I also stop shopping from the stores where the designesr ignore my request for supports.  Some designers in SL indulged in the SLebrity status so much that they are treating their customers like their fans, and they forgot these are the group of people that pay for their creations.  I tend to stay away from these designers no matter how good their creations are.  I will not encourage those behaviours.

5. Super pale skin – I can understand the super pale skin are useful for styling and roleplay but they looks very unnatural and unhealthy to wear on daily basis.

6. I dislike people that are not kind and not courteous.  Some people tends to pop in without saying hi and just request for things and once they got what they want “poof!” they left without a thank you.  Perhaps they feel there are no real facial contact and they don’t need to be courteous.  I have silently decided I will no longer entertain people like that in SL.

I’m sure I have more guilty confessions but these six are enough to gather some friends or haters so I will stop here for now. :)

Have a great weekend everyone! Remember to check out the new cycle of L’accessoires item! <3

Why Do I Blog Meme?

So I logon to WordPress this morning and wanted to do a Meme blog challenge, championed by Strawberry Singh, because I started the challenge late and wanted to catch up…..and as berry throws out really fun topics on weekly basis, like the one she posted today about “My SL Guilty Confessions Meme“ there are many old topics that I wouldn’t want to miss too, so today I am going to do….

“Why Do I Blog Meme?”

Since there are 14 questions, I should get going….please read on!

Meme instructions: Copy and paste the following questions and answers to your post, delete my answers and input your own. Try not to swear at Berry in your head for having so many questions this week and don’t forget to leave a comment in this meme’s post so others can come by and read your answers as well.

Molichino + COCO + Diva + shi 1024

1. How long have you been blogging?

I started blogging since early of year 2008, on blogspot.

2. Why did you start blogging?

My RL friend, JoV, encouraged me to do so and that’s how I know about blogspot.  My first blog was a Second Life fashion blog inspired by a popular SL blogger back then, Milla Michinaga, and also a friend of mine, Ruriko Bracken.  I did it mainly for fun because I liked to shop and mix and match my clothings so I thought I would just take some photos and share them with whomever were interested.  In the same year, I started another blog with Masaru, about fashion and our daily lives. Unfortunately, things slowed down drastically in year 2009 because of RL , so much that I almost left SL so I took both the blogs down.  September 2011, after returning to SL and picking up modeling again, I decided to start this blog.

3. How many times a week do you post an entry?

An average of 3 to 4 posts a week.  I try to blog something on the weekends because that I noticed I get more readership and traffic to my blog and flickr on thesedays.

4. How many different blogs do you read on a regular basis?

I read many SL fashion blogs and in RL mostly about fashion, cooking, travel, books and children stuffs.  I have to say fashion is the most regular one and the rest are just when I really have the time.   This is because whenever I am sitting in front of my PC, SL, skype, flickr, photoshop and wordpress are the most active windows for me. :P

5. Do you comment on other people’s blogs?

I do, but not on regular basis and I really wish I have more time to do so because some posts need time to digest and I don’t want to make non-meaningful comments. :) I will, however, click “Like” if a post has beautiful pictures and interesting topic, even if I do not have time to read them in details.

6. Do you keep track of how many visitors you have?

I don’t keep track on regular basis.  Having said that, I check my stats once a week because I am always curious where my readers are from and which posts have the most readers. :)   It is always very encouraging to see I have new followers.  I truly appreciate the supports and comments I am getting todate. <3

7. Did you ever regret a post that you wrote?

No regret, otherwise the post would have been taken down. :) I did have doubts on a couple of posts as I wrote them and I pondered for hours before I finally clicked that ”Publish” button.  Some days I am more vocal on my thoughts especially when I feel strongly about certain topics that are also pertaining to myself.  One of the posts would be my thoughts about the finale of a beauty contest I participated last year and another one that I posted recently regarding some incidents I experienced in RL…but no regrets definitely. :)

8. Do you think your readers have a true sense of who you are based on your blog?

I believe so.  I tried to be versatile in my stylings and pictures but the same time I try to write something in every post whenever time permits. I find it more personal that way, so readers have been reading my thoughts. :)

9. Do you blog under your real name?

I never blog with my real name.  Even with my RL blog, I don’t use my real name.
10. Are there topics that you would never blog about?

There are topics that I am definitely not good at, such as politics, religion, exotic gadgets and topics about sexual orientations.   I am also not a big fan of combat / war.

11. What is the theme/topic of your blog?

My blog focused on fashion and ocassionally I talked about my lives and thoughts, so I called it a fashion journal.

12. Do you have more than one blog?

I have a rl blog that sadly I have not posted for quite awhile now.  I started that blog because I needed an outlet and vent about my unhappiness and frustration when I first moved to Canada.  As things are slowly looking up, I blogged about some funny stuffs my daughter did or said and before I stop blogging there, I changed the theme and even the name of the blog to something more bright and cheerful.  Unfortunately, it is hard to keep up with two blogs with a demanding rl so I haven’t been there for sometime now.

13. What have you found to be the benefits of blogging?

My blog is like my personal space in expressing myself,  in this case about my fashion style, creativity and thoughts.  I observe the responses relating to my posts as feedback and improvement and just like Strawberry, I am connected to more SL bloggers this way, people that share common interests in SL. :)
14. So, why do you continue to blog?

It is always fun to see what style I can come up with everyday with the items I received from the designers and items I bought.  It is motivating to see there are great and talented designers that entrusted me with their creations and readers that have come back to my blog again and again for ideas and reading pleasure.  These are the reasons that have kept me going in blogging.  Another reason is I get to practice my photography skills.

So here are my 14 good Meme answers for why do I blog. :)

My Gendai-Haiku Meme

Strawberry throws us a challenge today that’s to sum up our Second Life in a Haiku. A Haiku is a short form of Japanese poetry with very specific number of syllables.   I, however, is using the modern haiku (Gendai-Haiku) because I am not sure if I could get my poem to work in 17 syllables.

Anyway, here it goes…

Ai (爱) means Love,
Love for fashion, pictures and lucky chairs.
To love and be loved.
