I’ve made a new JuicyBomb logo for 2009! The logo will remain in use throughout 2009, unless I get a burst of inspiration or something. I need your feedback, please vote below.

*note: If you think they suck, please say so but I probably won’t change it cos that’s all the Photoshop I know and I’m not a professional web-banner maker, but I tried to make it pretty!!
Even though I rezzed in Second Life in 2006, the first 13 years of my SLife were spent on private regions. I bought my first region in my first year, so mainland was never something I paid much attention to. I didn’t even get Premium until I got my first Bellisseria home on April 15, 2019. Ever since then, I’ve been buying mainland here and there, holding snow land, bidding on auctions trying to get beach land, all of it. I love land. I don’t always love mainland chaos, but I love nice waterfront land enough to keep dealing with it.
So when I read the post about Gaeta 1 closing, I’m not even going to lie, my first thought was where the hell is Gaeta 1? Then I kept reading and saw they’re offering size for size replacement parcels and will work with owners to find something comparable. The second I read that, I went straight over there and bought land.
If owning land there is my ticket into the new Zindra continent, then I bought my ticket and I’m ready to move.
There’s a town hall Monday, April 20 at 11am SLT, so I’m hoping they give real details then. For residents like me that can move instantly, I hope Linden Lab lets us rush in and claim spots first. I’m not going to waste anyone’s time going back and forth for weeks. Just give me what was promised, a comparable parcel. Every piece of land I bought on Gaeta 1 is waterfront, so yes, I expect waterfront back.
What makes this fun for me is I remember when Bay City launched, and I remember Horizons too, but I wasn’t Premium back then. Now I am, and I am readyyyyyyyy.
The Adult land part does not bother me at all. I’m an adult. I also don’t think everyone is about to throw up sex clubs all over the ground. I think a lot of people will do homes, gardens, cute builds, and nice parcels like anywhere else. What I do hope for is some kind of covenant. No ugly visible ban lines, no giant prim walls killing views, no trash in the sky. Let’s start this continent off right.
This is not a fashion post, but I still need to say go get the new Margot tee from ISON. I wasn’t even going to buy it until I saw they were giving a free print HUD with any color pack. The prints are cute, it got me immediately, and now I own it.

I just went to the Mesh Body Addicts Fair early to check out the skins and mesh body parts offered, and I haven’t decided on anything new yet. If you want to go before the fair opens to the public on August 1st, join the Mesh Body Addicts group in-world (it’s free to join). I thought the fair was a good size with just two sims, and a very open layout. Easy to navigate. I didn’t like that some brands seemed to rez old items and didn’t clearly label what items were new and/or exclusive to the fair. Keep it simple!
I found Goji at the fair; this is a brand that I wanted to check out since its launch earlier this year. This is a more kawaii brand from the same team that is behind ColdLogic. How talented is Damien Fate? He has more brands than I can remember at the moment, and all of them are different. I recently blogged about FateLashes, which I am still wearing daily!
The only thing I bought at this fair is the new Smarties Frills dress from Goji. This is a fair exclusive, and it is so inexpensive! For $190L, the dress includes a 4 color HUD with buttons to turn the front and back bows on/off, and a shine option. Here’s a map of the MBA fair, so you can find all of your favorite brands faster.
Reminder, today is the last day of Hair Fair! I am wearing a hair from Elikatira; a brand I haven’t worn in ages cos I thought the brand became inactive. I guess it’s back? This is your last chance to buy hair with some of the proceeds going to charity.
What I’m Wearing:
Elikatira – Haley
Goji – Smartie Frills
The Secret Store – Becky T-Strap Heels (Milk)
Morrigan Hyun of Elegance Hats has just released new cocktail hats!
I am wearing the 'Nicole' cocktail hat in Rose, Dark Citron, and Black.
I love little hats, and these are darling!
What I'm Wearing:
Elegance Hats – Nicole cocktail hat
Exile – Veronica (Harlow) hair
BEBAE – Belina *Creme: Bare-1a
Ultra Kitty – PP. Ellis Suit
SLink – Glamour Platforms (Black)
Only one picture for today’s post cos I installed the latest Second Life 2.6.3.227447 and it crashes unexpectedly all the time!! I’m also using the Silver Pink Starlight skin with this viewer, so I don’t know if it’s Second Life crashing me, or Starlight. Have you noticed that LL implemented avatar physics in the newest official viewer? YEP! It’s heeeeeeeeere!
If you purchased a free copy of my Avatar Physics from Marketplace and it doesn’t “work”, I think it’s cos SL has been resetting the Breast Bounce > Max Effect setting! For a lil bounce, set it to 25 and for max bounce, set it to 65 or higher.
Anyways, I am wearing new Maitreya Lara II hair (check out the new glossy hair texture, so amazing), Fishy Strawberry Denim dress, and SLink Cassia Sandals. <3
What I’m Wearing:
Laqroki – Linnea (Fair) Light Brows – 01
Maitreya – Lara II (Almond)
Fishy Strawberry – Denim Dress (Wash A)
SLink – Cassia Sandals (Cream)
I LOVE NEW HAIR!!! This new Lizzy hairstyle from Monso is an adorable updo with bangs. This hairstyle has materials, which can be seen if you’re using the official SL viewer. Since the last hair release, Monso created a new hair HUD and made new hair colors! Yay, I love HUDs too.
The HUD also has a built-in re-sizer.
Materials! It’s shiny and more prominent under certain lighting conditions. I moved my Sun/Moon slider around to show you guys how the lighting affects the texture.
Katat0nik released the adorable Tulle Skirts! When she released the Imaginative School Girl Outfit last month, I fell in love with the Tulle skirt, so I asked for it as a separate item. I’m thrilled she made them, and even included a texture-change/tint HUD. I didn’t wear it in my post, but you can also get a free add-on waist band that goes with this skirt too.
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel – Harley (Peach)
cheLLe – I am Doll Parts tattoo
Monso – My Hair Lizzie
Beetlebones – Cropped Petuna Top (XS) White
Katat0nik – Tulle Skirt
Katat0nik – (lt pink) White Garter Socks
BOOM – Friendship Bracelets
Filthy – F-Piercing v2 (modded and re-textured)
How do you get me to show up to places? Mention gifts! 😛
LeLutka had a Red Event and gave away tons of Red colored goodies! I’m horrible at showing up for things, but did manage to dash in at the last few minutes. I’m wearing one of the gifts, I think it’s suppose to be a shirt but I don’t really like pants so I’m wearing it as a very short dress. Even though I’ve declared today to be Pants-less Day, I am wearing panties here (you just can’t see it).
love the first one, a pretty face like yours shoud be seen.
personal question here, you review alot of skins on your blog and look great in them but – if you had to go and buy a pack were would you go ? not to review of show new creations but a personal fav.
