Good morning world! I woke up tired today. I even put the cereal box in the fridge next to the milk so go figure. It won’t be my day. I should stay and ramble, I haven’t done so in a while but I can’t since work is waiting. I’m going to leave you to my long list of credits so grab a snack and enjoy!

Good evening! I know, I know, I haven’t posted on a Saturday for quite some time now. If you’ve been following my blog from back in the day, you’d remember I had this rule that I’d never ramble on my weekend posts. I will still follow my rule but I also want to point out the reason why I’m posting today.

final
click for full size

I’ve mentioned before how I hate 9 out of 10 pictures I make. And how the only solution to this problem is, posting my pictures right away before I change my mind and delete them. This one in particular, I’ve been working on for 4 days. First I invited Vega Arida to do it with me. I hated the result and deleted. Then I didn’t like my outfit. Changed it and reshot it. Then I didn’t like the scene’s set up. I changed it 2 times! I lost my mind and figured it shouldn’t have to be so hard. And it’s not really. I’m just crazy.

Anyway, there you go. I’m going with this today and I’m done with this post. Hope you like it because I didn’t! Make sure you read the credits below as there are a bunch of new releases in this post and you need to see which is what!

Have a great weekend!

Reconciliation

.Reading time 2 minutes.

Good morning everybody! I’m dropping this and leaving as it is going to be a busy day today. I’d rather stay and ramble, you know I’m so good at this and procrastination is my second name, but I can’t. It’s been raining since Saturday and going to or leaving from work has been a challenge. I’ve told you before that Athens wasn’t built to endure storms. We flood in a second! Wait, did I just ramble? Oh well..!

Today’s post features more new stuff from Uber. The theme of the round is Biker and I totally enjoyed it. Picture also features the handsome and talented A.J. who was nice enough to join me in this project. I don’t know what he’s wearing but I can always ask if anyone’s interested!

Everything is listed below, as usual, so grab a snack and happy shopping!

Hello world! Dropping this here and going back to the office. Everyone remembered I exist today and expects me to finish it all by 6pm. That’s not going to happen but I didn’t want to spoil their surprise. It’s one of those days.

Today’s post features new stuff from the current round of Blush, Uber and Fameshed, plus the super cute set [keke] released at Shiny Shabby. All the important details are below, so have a look and enjoy your shopping.

Hello world! Missed me? This was probably the fastest weekend ever. I didn’t even realize it’s Monday all over again. I’ve managed to have some work done but there’s still a lot to do. But, the good news? Christmas is less than a month away. Exciting much? You should be, it’s a lovely holiday and I believe, a favorite for most of us.

It’s a bit crazy on SL with all the events and the sales going on at the moment so you need to be ready to spend some money. Even the toughest shoppers out there, didn’t make it and spent a little fortune. Yes, Julie, I mean you!

Some Black Friday sales are still going on (today should be the final day I suppose) and Tannenbaum opened on Saturday along with some other events, but I will be showing you one event at a time, at first. Today’s post features some goodies from it so make sure you check all credits below for all the details and information you might need. Some stuff from Uber and District 20 used in the picture as well but I will show more from them in the upcoming posts. Tannenbaum runs until the 25th of December, so you got time, but not really. You should be decorating already as we speak!

…back to Santorini

.Reading time 5 minutes.

Good morning world! I usually start my posts with a few random, often irrelevant, stuff about me and my boring life, but today, I figured I’d do the opposite. I will start with the items in the picture and then about me. I’m such a rebel, I know!

So you’ve probably been to the anniversary round of 6th Republic by now, right? Isn’t it amazing? Merak participates with a whole set named Eva. It’s a build, inspired by the houses at Santorini and you can also find a bed, pots and a crate as decor items. It’s simply beautiful. The rest of the decorations are from Krescendo’s gacha release, also at the 6th Republic, which is inspired by Lisbon but still worked great with this one. You will also see some stuff from Artisan Fantasy kitchen collection and some CMYK and anhelo additions to it as well. Have a look at the credits for a detailed list of the items used.

The dress I’m wearing is new from The Annex and currently at The Liaison Collaborative and the hair is from Exile at Collabor88. I, again, drew some hair strands to it. There was no need for that, the hair is gorgeous but I’m addicted.

Now about the real stuff. The minute I saw this new release of Merak I was psyched. I don’t blog for Merak and I have never met the owner but she named her set “Eva” which is my real name and it’s inspired from Santorini, which is where I come from. Coincidence? Maybe! But I’m a little princess so I choose to believe she designed it especially for me. He he. Okay, I’m obviously kidding but I now know this is going to become a permanent build on my platform. I just loved it that much. It brought back so many memories and inspired me to try and create the whole island look with the beautiful colors and the summer breeze. If you’ve been to Santorini before, you’ll recognize the bougainvillea tree in the picture, which you will find all over the islands in Greece and I figured it’s a necessary addition to the picture. If you haven’t yet, I highly recommend it!

Perpetual journey

.Reading time 5 minutes.

Good morning! Last night I realized that, this month, I have been blogging daily. Yes, there hasn’t been a single day in April where I didn’t post a picture and I’m a bit proud of myself. It’s not the greatest accomplishment in the world for sure, but thinking about how limited my time is and how hard for me is to concentrate sometimes, I think I will buy myself an ice cream today.

Do I recommend blogging daily? Absolutely not! I believe that, no matter how skillful you are, when you massively produce, whatever that is, your quality, inevitably will be affected or you will make mistakes. Blogging wise, it could be anything. Wrong credits, forget to add something you wanted to your scene, a very bad editing of a picture etc. If you can do it, that’s great. I admire you for that. I personally have realized some mistakes I’ve made only because I rushed a post (which I won’t point out as you might have not noticed them, hehe) or I see some pictures I have posted and wonder what I was thinking. I could have edited them better or worked on a scene differently.

Noone forced me to post every day, I know. I believe it was an unofficial challenge I put myself through, to see if I can make it. And I’m planning on finishing it. I will continue to post daily until the end of the month, but after that, I will try to go back to “every other day”. I said I will try, because I know me, it won’t be the first time that I will break my own promises. I know for sure though, that I have to relax a little. This has started to feel overwhelming again and I need to be enjoying it.

Anyways, today’s post will be the last one featuring stuff from Bloom. The event ends on Sunday and I believe I covered pretty much everything from it. I’m kidding, there’s still plenty of goodies for you to see and grab. It has been a blast covering the event, mostly because I got to make a lot of spring-y, outdoorsy scenes. They’re new to me, very interesting and challenging. The rest of the stuff is new releases from 22769 from the new Shiny Shabby round and some FLF goodies from Hive. So take a minute to read the credits below for more details.

OBSERVATORY

That also explains the post’s title. It’s my “Perpetual Journey” to the world of blogging. I didn’t know what perpetual means and had to google it. It will be my word of the day. Off to work now! Have a lovely day and be kind to one another. See you all next time.
