Fail

So, I've just been doing really normal things in my really normal life. Going to class, wishing it was warmer, spending time with friends, generally being boring.

So yeah... I don't have anything to blog.





I am so blog fail.

Love Thursday

Bone and I recently redid all of our land, replacing most of the skyboxes and redoing the others. We replaced our main skybox with this one from Reek, and I just love it. It's so bright and airy and it feels more and more like home as we spend time in it.

Plus, it's a great place to end the day in.

Juice

Have you ever been in the middle of something and looked back, for whatever reason, and realized: wow, this is very different than where it started. Not that where it started was inferior, nor where it ended up.

It's sort of like grape juice.

See, I really like grape juice. I enjoy it's grape-y taste and all the elements of the juice. But maybe you put that juice in the fridge and forget it.

Then one day you pull it out, and... OMG... this is wine! (Okay, I know it doesn't quite work like that, but for the purpose of my analogy go with it.) And, man, is that wine good. It's yummy and all that great stuff.

Now, do you mourn the grape juice? Well no, you have wine! Was that grape juice any less than the wine? No again, you really liked that grape juice.

But now you have wine. And it is good.

Change is good.

Good Times...

with the Daila.

BBBC: Lazy

Yeah, lazy. So, you just... get a picture... of my lazy ass.

The end.


EDIT: (for Owly)

BBBC: I Like Me

If I could be anyone on the grid for a day, I would be...


me.

I know it is boring. But, I really love my SLife. I wouldn't trade it for the world.

BBBC: My Own Sim

Gee, if I was given my own sim what would I make it look like...

Maybe something like this:

Wait...

I might be doing this wrong...

BBBC: I'm on a Prim Boat!

So, I totally stole this from the lovely Laleeta... but my perfect day, is on a prim boat.

And The Lonely Island really sum up what it is to be on a boat, with their aptly named song, "I'm on a boat."

So, I submit my own personal rendition of "I'm on a Prim Boat!"




(Shortayyyy) Aww sh*t
Get your pixels ready it's about to go down (shorty, yeah)
Everybody in the place hit the f*ckin’ grid (shorty, yeah)

BBBC: Day One

I just realized that Ive been blogging my little slife for over a year now. Crazy!

The topic at hand today looks at how blogging has enriched you life. Now, I don't know that blogging has enriched my life... I see it more as an extension of my life. A little place to document my quiet little path through SL. I never really put much thought into what my readers would like to hear or anything. This is more of a little chronicle of my adventures, if someone finds amusement from it, then I'm pleased. If not, I'm ok with that too. I just like being able to look back over where I have been, and the journey that got me to where I am today.

And, today, I'm very, very happy. So, somewhere along the line I must have done something right.

To close, I give you a picture of the first thing I did with my fancy-smancy Abiss couch after I brought it home

Vacation

I'm at Disney world and I have a few messages:

Sunburn sucks
Tube tops are always a good bet
Get the meal plan, it saves money and is full of amazing!
Flip flops are a bad idea and cause blisters
Something is going on because lines are CRAZY short so far
WTF, why is there no free internet!!!!
Giant tanks of water over your head cause bad cell phone reception
Air conditioned rides are COLD!
Some rides kinda suck...
In-resort shuttles are GOD!

That is all.

Bone the Builder

Making a photo studio.

The Trouble with Bunnies

Nothing ever turns out well when I dress up as a bunny. But for some reason I still continue to dress as bunnies, in their various incarnations. I guess I will never learn.


This is why Laleeta and I cannot be trusted with bunny costumes.

More Love

I was randomly shopping today when I came across the cutest shirt. It said "cupcake graveyard" and had a little picture of a stomach full of cupcakes on it. I was thinking, "Well, that is clever. I need that shirt."

Well, I picked it up and threw it on with a pair of beige shorts and, OMG, it was love. I just loved everything about it, the subtle fade, the awesome shading, the clever art. It is official, I am in tee shirt love.



If you wanna be cool like me, go to Reek and get this shirt. It comes in pretty much every color of the rainbow. Maybe, you will fall in love too.

Dance!

The tail end of the opening party for Beloved, Aisuru's wonderful store.

Very pretty build too.

Love Thursday

Super Exciting Post

Um...

On an unrelated note, take my 5 minute survey for my senior project:


Survey here! Take it!




Oh, and here's a picture of me and Miang as squirrels...

Can I Get a Boost?

Am I really *that* small?

Sehra Goes Time Traveling

So, I decided to make a little trip back in time to the 1950's. I donno why, I just like the kitschy era and the silly piety that encompassed it. I have sort of a tongue in cheek approach to the time. I know I would have been a disobedient/outspoken daughter, troublemaker of a friend and an insubordinate/essentially useless housewife. But, I still love the silliness of the time.


Look as me in the kitchen, you know the only thing I was making in there all day were some strong martinis. Maybe some cookie dough, but you know I ate it instead of baking it.

But it is pretty right? I would have spent, like, hours making the entire house look pristine; I love interior design. But, really, we can essentially surmise that my kitchen is a decorative item.

And, God knows, these would have been my crazy/awesome friends:

Love Thursdays!

It looks like Love Thursdays is happening and I'm never one to miss the bus, so I thought I'd throw in my 10 cents. These are the things that I love. Things that make my life a little brighter and cause a big grin to spread across my face:



When you randomly dress up like a cowgirl and ride around on Nessie through the Loch.



When someone breaks out the double pole at the Fiesta Zone and everyone hops on.



When impromptu parties sprout up at your friend's houses and you start to catapult people across the sim.



When you share beautiful, quiet moments at the end of the day.



And, when shit like this happens.

Me First!

The wonderful Ali tagged me.
Now you must suffer through my answers:


1. Who was your FIRST prom date?
This kid named Brent. Only, we decided that we didn't want to go to prom, and just went to the after party our school hosted instead. There was a hypnotist!

2. Do you still talk to your FIRST love?
No. We lost touch, a while ago.

3. What was your FIRST alcoholic drink?
Vodka and Sprite, followed by around 15 shots of whatever we thought my parents wouldn't miss from the liquor cabinet.

4. What was your FIRST job?
Working at a clothing store, mostly just rehanging clothes and folding things for hours. The exciting days were when I got to do markdowns.

5. What was your FIRST car?
My Boo! My '96 white Buick Riviera. I still drive him today!

6. Who was the FIRST person to text you today?
Uh, nobody? I don't use my phone overly much.

7. Who is the FIRST person you thought of this morning?
*Laughs*

8. Who was your FIRST grade teacher?
Ms. Brown, I got the teacher every kid wanted, but in retrospect, I don't know what was so great about her. The others must have been evil or something.

9. Where did you go on your FIRST ride on an airplane?
I don't remember, I think I was, like, 2 or 3. I'm pretty sure I went to Arizona.

10. Who was your FIRST best friend and do you still talk?
Lindsey, from preschool until I moved to my new house. And no, not really, sometimes we pass a note or two on facebook, but mostly, no.

11. Where was your FIRST sleep over?
Lindsey's house, I think I was like, 6.

12. Who was the FIRST person you talked to today?
Roomie, I grunted at her and went to get a glass of water.

13. Whose wedding were you in the FIRST time?
Never been in a wedding, been to them, not in them. None of my close friends are married.

14. What was the FIRST thing you did this morning?
Pulled the blankets over my head and pretended it was not morning.

15. What was the FIRST concert you ever went to?
Aerosmith, 10th row, I died.

16. What was the FIRST record/tape?
The soundtrack to Aladdin, I loved that damn movie.

17. FIRST hospitalization?
I had surgery when I was like 2 weeks old, so, then.

18. FIRST foreign country you've been to?
Mexico! Cancun, baby!

19. FIRST movie you remember seeing?
Some My Little Pony movie that is still at my parents house. I used to watch the shit outta that thing. Apparently I could not say the name Spike and instead called him "Ike!"

20. When was your FIRST detention?
OMG, I was a bad kid. Kindergarten, I was sent out of the class because I threw a huge fit that my library books were not in the right box.

21. Where did you FIRST meet your spouse/partner now?
LOL, I am not spouse-ified.

22. Who was your FIRST roommate?
Ugh, a girl named Ashley, we had fundimental living differences.

23. What did you do with your FIRST paycheck?
Bought clothes from the store I worked in. It's too tempting to work around clothes.


I tag whoever is reading this. I hate tagging actual people then they don't actually do it. It makes me feel sad and rejected. So, please, do the meme and say I tagged you. It will warm my little heart.

A Narrow Escape

I decided to enter the flickr contest for Pffiou! my friend Laleeta's amazing pose store. (BTW if you don't have any of her poses, you need them. Now.) I was already dressed up as a school girl from last night's photo shoot, for Laleeta's latest group pose, so I sort of ran with that theme.


I wanted a moody run down school setting to take the pictures in, but, um, like, all the moody run down schools in SL are also smutty sex dens. But I was a girl on a mission.

I was going to run in, find some good photo spots, snap my pictures real quick, and haul my happy ass out of there, as fast as humanly possible. I really thought I was going to pull it off too! I thought I could make it out of the smut school with no propositions and without witnessing a single sex act being carried out.


I was wrong. Because, as I was snapping my last picture, I got this IM:

[13:41] Mercury Madsen: hi
[13:41] Sehra Kauffman: nope
[13:41] Sehra Kauffman: no sex
[13:41] Sehra Kauffman: no
[13:42] Mercury Madsen: why not?
[13:42] Sehra Kauffman: just no
[13:42] Mercury Madsen: how about a suck then?
[13:42] Sehra Kauffman: no
[13:42] Mercury Madsen: boring

(And, I nearly peed myself laughing.)

Lazy Day

Just a good evening spent at the house, watching the corgi and the kitten play. I think I had two sleepy boys on my hands, at this point. But, the kitten and I were still awake.

Gala is My New Lover

New Gala skins.

I had to get the fatpack in the Breeze face and now I am mildly obsessed. Here are some shots of some of my favorites from the pack:

FAIL!

This seems kinda sadistic.

Bang, Bang!

Shot me down.

Whew!

Spent the past few days redoing the cottage. I need a nap!

1, 2, 7

Laleeta and I have joined forces, and these are the fruits of our labors... so far:




Candy, juice, turkey and wine. Those are the four major food groups, right?


OMG! Two tinies wrestling! Almost as good as KY jelly wrestling, right?

We managed to get Bone into a floofy dress. This calls for celebration.

Is it Summer Yet?

Okay, I just had to break out the bikini. There is no snow on Bluebonnet anymore and I am rejoicing. And I had this cute bikini from Artilleri that I had yet to debut. So, it had to happen.

Suntan anyone?

16 Random Things

Well, everyone has been doing this one, and y'all know how I hate to feel left out. :P
Here are 16 random and probabaly useless things about myself:

1. I have a thing about my hair being perfect. I refuse to go out of my apartment unless it is fully done and looks perfect. I'm generally pretty anal about it.

2. I hate shoes. I never wear them unless I have to. But I love buying shoes, so I have an unnecessary amount of cute useless shoes.

3. I swear to God I must have one of those "familiar faces" because people are always telling me that I look just like "so and so." I have had three conversations with people who thought I was another girl that they knew. (Actually, two thought I was one girl, the other one thought I was a different girl. I, unfortunately, was neither.) I didn't have the heart to tell them I wasn't her.

4. I hate cucumbers. They smell nasty!

5. I have an addiction to perfumes and own near 10 signature scents. Three for summer, three for winter, three for fall, and one for spring.

6. I have a secret obsession with Star Wars. I am full of random knowledge of the SW universe and when poked begin to hemorrhage said information.

7. I was born and grew up in one town, minus my brief stint as a Texan. It's kinda odd to know so many people when I go out to do anything.

8. My toenails are never without paint. I always lovingly pedicure them at the start of each month.

9. Chewing noises make me CRAZY! I hate them. Sometimes I will move across a room to avoid a noisy eater, especially if they smack their lips. I hate lip smackers.

10. I think crunchy is the only acceptable peanut butter.

11. I'm always on my laptop when I'm online so you never know where I'm sitting. Sometimes I'm standing. Once I was straightening my hair while ISL. Once I was in the bath. Once I was cooking food and the lappy was on the kitchen counter.

12. I am a master multi-tasker. See number 11.

13. I am deathly afraid of heights. When I get too high up I will hit the floor and become immobile. This is in direct opposition to my love of roller coasters. Sometimes I wonder if I am a masochistic.

14. I am an incredibly picky eater. I almost always special order my food at restaurants. Then, I feel bad about making them make it special. I know, I'm weird.

15. I love going on trips with my friends. I think going someplace out of the norm with a good friend is one of the best ways to get to know them better.

16. I love pillows. I buy them without thinking and have a minimum of three on every chair, couch and bed in my apartment.

And, we're done!

My Furry Friends

So, I don't know if I ever mentioned this before:

I love squirrels. A lot.
