❤️Hivid TV+ Me=TRUE!❤️

 Oh Gosh! I'm so excited to tell you all about this!

To say that I love watching movies in second life is mild. I am a hardcore movie junkie, but it has always been a struggle to watch movies synchronized, meaning that everyone is watching the movie in real-time, all at the same time.

Until NOW *SCREAMS* I have been in second life for almost 13 years, and THIS is what I have been WAITING FOR.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you *drumroll*... Hivid TV!!

I don't really know how long Hivid has been around, but to me, this is big news; not only are you able to watch a movie synchronized with others, but you can also buy movies, and no, there's no copyright issue here if you go to the hivid main store there are walls on walls on walls with real movies and if they don't have a movie that you would like to see you can request it!!!

EDIT REGARDING HIVID STORE AND MOVIES:

"Hi, we're actually approved by Linden Labs and have explicit permissions. We pay all mandatory licensing fees on all our films so there is no issue with copyrighting. We often have Lindens in store to help us out and our owner has worked hard to meet all compliance standards. Come check us out!"


My brother David got me on to this, and I'm so fucking thankful for it And for him for many reasons.

If you don't want to go to the store to buy a movie, you can also do it from the TV itself, and the absolute best thing about it is that you get "physical" DVD case copies that You Can Dance store in your home.

If I tell you I went absolutely butt crazy, it would be an understatement!

I built a DVD case shelving unit specifically for the Hivid DVD cases, but of course, you can use the shelving unit for other stuff, too I also built it myself because I could not find anything that fit my aesthetic wanted. When I bought the TV it was 899 lindens. In about three days, I spent over 10,000 lindens on movies alone, And my movie collection is growing daily. Right now, it's on a 60% off sale on the marketplace, so I highly recommend you get it.

The TV itself is straightforward to understand, and requesting a movie is also very easy to know when ordering; movie takes to about 24 to 48 hours, depending on how fast they can find the movie for you; if the movie request gets rejected, it's usually because they can't find that particular movie.

The Hivid TV community is very welcoming and kind. I spent hours in the store just hanging out or walking around looking for movies. They also have lucky chairs, which is so awesome.


I have had a hard few days, so today, I wanted to dim the lights in my home, bring snacks and a bottle of wine and watch a movie. I decided to watch Michael flatly’s Lord of the dance.


I enjoyed being alone, having a few glasses of wine, and chilling. I don't drink in real life but like to indulge in second life.

Hivid also organizes fun events such as bingo. as I've said before, the Hivid community is so welcoming and friendly that I can guarantee you will find yourself spending hours in the store just to be social.

If you join the group now, a gift card holds 399 lindens, which is the regular price for a movie; however, they have a 25% off in the entire store, so one movie is 299 instead of 399. I don't know how long this sale will go on for, so don't come after me if you are reading this and they no longer have the sale.:) 

Oh, and I forgot they also have a 10% discount on movie requests, which is rare!

 What the heck are you waiting for!!!??? I promise this TV and community will change your second life; it will even change your life!

* Sponsored by Beautiful Dirty Rich*- “I made you look”

 Hello everyone!

So after a significant break from this blog and my other blogs, too.

I'm going to try to get back into the swing of things, and I hope I will get the urge to start writing again more regularly, especially on my erotic blog.

 

Let's get into this blog post!

So today, I reached out to the owner and soul creator behind the brand Beautiful Dirty Rich. I have been sponsored by her before, so I will link that blog post below if you're interested in looking at that.

This creator is particular in my heart because she was the first store I ever bought clothing from when I came to second life about 12 1/2 years ago. You can trust me when I say she has only gotten better and better and better. Second, life has evolved tremendously over my 12 1/2 years, and seeing her still being here and still going strong makes me so happy.

Beautiful dirty rich has one of the best crochet texture patterns I have ever seen in my entire life; anytime that she includes the crochet texture in something, I immediately go and buy it, so when I saw her most recent release for an event in second life the *B.D.R* Katarina Dress I screamed my head off. It's the most gorgeous crochet dress I have ever seen and so sexy!

I am not ashamed to say that Within 5 minutes of seeing this dress, I reached out to her asking if she would be willing to sponsor me for this post.

 The Katarina Dress Has so many different texture and opacity options, so I decided to make a video clip of me swatching a few of the colors and showing off the hud that comes with the dress.

If you are new to beautiful dirty rich clothing, the clothing always comes with a hud with a bunch of cool and unique pattern styles that you can switch up, mix and match sometimes, and her prices are reasonable. That's one of the reasons why I keep going back to her because you get so much bang for your buck.


I don't know about you guys, but I feel that the economy inside your life has flown through the roof in the past took three years, and it's getting harder and harder to shop for the things you want, and it's getting harder and harder to make the lindens last, even though I am a huge weekend sales shopper!

Here comes the fun part some pictures of me wearing the dress. That's what you all came for, right? *Grins*

Keep in mind I have a few projector lights around me in the photos showing off the dress in what I consider to be the best lighting for myself and my skin and everything like that.




Yes, I have the most spoiled-looking face ever; I know that, but I just couldn't resist!

The Katarina Dress comes in the sizes:

Compatible with Maitreya + Petite + Breast Lift (By Ecru), Legacy + Perky + PushUp (By Nerido), Kupra + Kups, Reborn + Juicy Boobs, Belleza Gen.X Classic & Curvy.

 I am, of course, wearing the one and only body for me, Ebody Reborn, and in this case, I am also wearing the juicy boobs add-on.

The Katarina Dress Can be found at Sense Event from the 18th of December 2022- January 8th. Opening at 6 pm SLT. After the event, you can find it in the main store, and on Mp I think.

Thank you so much, Beautiful Dirty Rich. for sponsoring me and this blog post!

Please keep up the wonderful work that you are doing and have been doing for so many years.

You have a special place in my heart, and I can't wait to see what you come up with next!

♥Life Update♥

 Wow, hello, everyone!

I don't know where to start because so much has been happening. It's a roller coaster of emotions everywhere, happy ones! though don't worry.

 

So we got home from Fiji on the 14th of August 2022. It was such a fantastic experience and a fantastic vacation. I can't wait to do it again.

If you want to know more about the Fiji vacation, please visit my traveling blog.

But just because we got home does not mean we haven't had spontaneous vacations, even road trips to Norway(yes, in second life)

we have been doing so much stuff that I have a backlog of blogging!

I am so crazy happy about it,

*Trying to gather my thoughts*

Well, I should tell you I now live in a mansion and add a place called the Grove. It's a very, very luxurious community with gorgeous rentals.

If I remember correctly, you rent the plot itself. It does not come with the house, as far as I know.

My husband Gabe took me there to show me around and have a little one-on-one time.

When I saw the whole place, I was floored by the meticulous attention to detail in the landscaping. It is literally like walking around in a storybook.

You must come to this place if you love photography.

Now that I'm sitting here thinking about it, it reminds me of the beauty and the beast.

Gabe and I walked around for a bit, but then we decided to take out our horses just to let them "stretch."

I was so floored that I kept saying wow, wow, wow, Gabe must have thought I had lost my vocabulary at some point.

I teared up a little bit while looking around.

After riding around for a bit, Gabe stops me and asks, "would you like to live here?"

My jaw dropped, and I just said, "have you seen the prices of the rentals, baby?"

He just said, "yes, I have now answer my question. Would you like to live here?"

I looked into his eyes and said, "Yes, I would."

Not long after this, My husband David came home from work. I immediately got into his IM box and started telling him about the Grove.

He smiled and said, "yes, baby Gabe told me you guys are there."

David continued, "I am sneaking up on a property as we speak."

I knew then there was no point in convincing them not to rent.

Let me make one thing: it is not cheap to live here, so if you don't have the wallet for it, don't try it.

After getting help with rentals and the land groups, it was off to house hunt.

All three of us or very, very particular, so Needless to say, it was an enjoyable experience.

It didn't take as long as I thought it would take to choose a house we all liked.

 

Placing down the house and most of the decorations were done by my husband David because he has an extensive inventory, even more, extensive than mine when it comes to furniture and décor.

It didn't take long to settle in, feeling like this was home to all of us.

The Grove staff even offer to decorate help mainly for the outside, but I am very, very happy with how it looks, although some of the pieces I wish I could send back to the staff, we are not allowed to, which I can also understand.

Now to what seemed to be on everybody's mind at the moment:

Why have I "changed so much?"

Let me try to put this into words for you (Which is harder than you think)

The short answer is it's easy to be yourself in every possible way when you get the freedom to.

For those who don't like my lifestyle:

I don't care.

My life is not your life to dictate. I am right where I'm supposed to be. More importantly, I am right where I WANT to be. I am fulfilled in every possible way that you can think of.

I might come across as a Bitch, But I would rather be a bitch with queen status than never speak my mind again.

♥It's a love story, baby just say yes.♥


 

In about 24 hours, I will be sitting on a plane in second life with my partners on our way to Fiji!

It feels so strange to say, but I have never in my 12 years of second life traveled somewhere; yes, I have been staying at a hotel which was going to be short-term for me but ended up being very long term, so I don't see that as a vacation.

Using the word excited would be an understatement at this point. I am so pumped up for this trip that it's probably ridiculous, but I don't even care.

 

I have gone through so much this year, both mentally and physically, so this trip means a lot to me even though it's in second life.

To be able to go on this trip with the two people I love with all my heart is just the icing on top of the cake.

 

Before I met David and Gabriel, I didn't do much apart from photography and blogging; I was a hermit, to be honest with you.

I think the colossal reason is that I have been hurt so many times in the past 12 years that I just gave up on trying to do something in second life because most of the time, people would be telling me that I was crazy for doing second life the way that I do it.

And when I did fall in love with somebody, it ended up being only one-sided, coming from me and not from them.

So I've been so used to sticking my head down and working, not talking much to other people, not even trying to fall in love with somebody because, as I said, it has only been one-sided, so what's the point, right?

Here comes David and Gabriel, and what started as a beautiful friendship Has now blossomed into a solid relationship.

I was scared in the beginning because I realized that I was feeling more than just friendship for both, and these are feelings that I have never really felt before when it comes to second life.

The fact that both love me as much as I love them is new to me.

Nothing is strained between us. There's no drama between us. Everything flows naturally like we have been together for about ten years. I don't think that words can describe our relationship. It's just very romantic, loving, and caring.

I'm still terrified of losing them both, And I know they are frightened of losing me. It doesn't matter how often I keep telling them I'm not going anywhere.

So I'm hoping this trip can solidify everything. 

If you would like to follow along with everything we're going to be doing on this trip, please head over to my traveling blog, the scrapbooking travels of second life. I do have an adult content warning on that blog for now because I am not sure how I will write on the blog yet. I mean, I'm going to write the blog in the same manner as I always do. Still, I don't know what type of pictures I'm going to use or if I'm going to have a little bit of adult content on it or not, so that's why.

I will be back in full swing on the 15th!

Do you really know what it feels like? *braindump*

 


That feeling of being unwanted?

When somebody suddenly stops reciprocating back to you?

When do you feel like you are suddenly being "friend zoned" after it being so lovely?

I hate feeling all of the above, and that's precisely what I have been feeling for the past couple of weeks.

 

It all started with the father of my baby Not being "himself" towards me or this pregnancy. I had felt like he was pulling away more and more from me, but I didn't think much of it because we all have a real life outside of second life, at least I hope everyone does.

But I had this feeling in the back of my head that something was not right, and when I get those feelings, I usually end up being right in the end, and unfortunately, my feelings did not prove me wrong this time either.

There was an incident a few days before this that I also put to the back of my mind, but as the day went on, I got increasingly annoyed about what happened.

He came to the Bistro and made a "smart-Ass-comment" about the pregnancy, and i just finally had enough at that point, and I told them a piece of my mind I would not let him speak until I was done. By the end of the conversation, he just told me, "I will talk to you later."

He messaged me a few days later, and the short story is that he will no longer be present in my second life or this pregnancy. Not that it matters because he has never even been to one doctor's appointment With me. He only ever showed genuine interest in wanting to be with me the first time.

So I have been going alone every time, every month. Luckily I've had friends and partners that have the loud me to share my experience with the pregnancy with them.

 

If it hadn't been for them, I would have stopped this pregnancy a long time ago because I promised myself that in my subsequent pregnancy, I wouldn't be doing it by myself.

Yet here I am, 22 weeks pregnant, and I'm not talking second-lifetime wise; I'm talking real-life time nine months of pregnancy.

I don't know what to do or what to feel at this point because it feels like everyone that I meet ends up clicking with the end up pulling away from me in the end. I don't want it to be like that. I want to feel:

Loved

Appreciated

Wanted

Desired

I don't want people to think that I am needy because I'm not I have a strong desire to show people that I genuinely love them in any way I can. When it comes to second life, I am very affectionate, and when I feel something for someone, I'll never stop showing them what I feel for them.

If only people could stop seeing second life as a world where you role play, I think more people would feel the way I feel about it. I mean, for fuck's sake, even the founder of second life calls second life for what it is a virtual reality! Let me repeat that—virtual reality.

This is not World Of Warcraft, people! So, stop treating it like it is! I promise you the moment you stop treating second life as "any other game," a whole new world will open for you.

 

Yes, I fall in love with people in second life, and my feelings are genuine, but that doesn't mean I'm delusional and think about meeting the person in real life because that will most likely never happen 100%. Still, I do I mean every single word I say to a person that I love.

You can ask anyone that knows me. I am honestly incapable of lying to somebody; I have always been that way sometimes; not being able to tell a lie can sometimes be tricky, and most often, I get in trouble.

so you can understand how you feel when somebody suddenly flips a coin or something and friend-zones me, making me feel

unwanted

unloved

undesired

and so much more.

 

For me, WORDS are essential In second life.

words or phrases like "holding your hand."

"kissing you gently."

"I love you."

Are very, very important to me because when a person says or writes this to me, I feel a deep connection to that person; besides, I would hope that The words "I love you would trigger anybody to feel something."

I use the words I love you, A LOT because I believe it's essential to show each other affection even though you must be across the world from each other.

me and my real-life husband, for example, say I love you to each other more than 200 times a day because you can't really "overuse" those words (believe me, I have met people that think that you can say I love you "too much."

What the hell kind of crap talk is that?!

I am tired of feeling like this and being disappointed time and time again, so I have decided not to be the first person to say, "Hi baby, I missed you," hi baby," I love you" I am just going to put my head down and make people not take me for granted.

 

To most people reading this, I might come across as a "needy Bitch” I have one thing to say to you: you don't know me at all if you think that way about me. And to be honest, I don't care if you do. That shows me I don't need you in my second life or real life.

If I say I love you to you or anyone else reading this, Deb means I do love you regardless of our world because I am incapable of shutting off my feelings like I would shut off my computer. That's just the way I am, so you can either take it with open arms, or you can leave.

Thank you for listening/Tessa

Oh, and by the way, I am having a little girl….

Urban Roots Café!





Yes, I have had to pinch myself quite a few times these past few weeks. I am now a café owner. As a matter of fact, I am the designer; however, I will not take credit for the outside landscaping.

The outside landscaping is done by Urban Roots home and Garden warehouse, Who I work for but don't get it twisted. Me working for them has nothing to do with my café.

by UrbanRoots home and Garden warehouse  (TP)

Specializes in high-quality furniture at affordable prices, so yes, almost all the furniture items I use in the café come from them. Why wouldn't I, after all, they have done for me?

Read more about the café over at The Café blog.

Check under each tab; there is a lot of information!

I still can't believe I am the owner of this beautiful place, and I have complete freedom to do as I please.

 Completely indirective and run extremely realistically; you can even order food, but with that comes payment; you don't eat for free in real life, so why would you eat for free in a cafe in second life? Sure, there are hundreds of cafes in second life where you don't have to pay for the food, but most of the time, there's not even staff there. So I am proud to say that never in my 12 years how about come across a café like mine. The Café blog.

I hope to see you soon, and please help me spread the word!
