Weekend – October 16 & 17, 2010

Weekend – October 16 & 17, 2010

This weekend has left me feeling rather “emosad” because I didn’t get to see my boyfriend at all. Since we’re not living together at the moment and our weekly schedules are quite packed we only get to spend time together every Saturday night. This weekend however his car was giving problems and he was unable to drive out to come and see me.

Instead of moping in my “emosad” state all weekend I decided to put the time to good use by enhancing my virtual brand, rebuilding my virtual store and working on my new virtual clothing line. More detail about this soon, but first let’s look at my daily horoscope for Saturday and Sunday to see what the stars had to reveal about my weekend:

Cancer – Daily Horoscope (Saturday)

You create your reality with your own thoughts, Moonchild. If you have found yourself in a negative mindset, keep in mind that what you think paves the way for what you do and what ultimately happens in your life. It’s time to climb out of any regret, guilt, or disillusionment that has carved a groove in your life. Lift yourself up with positive visualizations, self-hypnosis, and uplifting thoughts of what the future might hold for you. You can change your destiny just changing your mind.

I strongly believe in the Law of Attraction and that it is relevant to all of us, not just cancerians. What is written here is very true. We are the creators of our own destiny. We are in control. Nothing and no one else can make our thoughts and decisions for us. I have therefore chosen to focus on the things that make me happy, to work on them and dwell on them for future success. This is the exact reason why I didn’t let my “emosad” moment ruin my entire weekend. I decided to stay positive, surround myself with visions for a happy and prosperous future and to work on my goals. All in all, Saturday was a really wonderfully productive day. Now let’s look at Sundays horoscope:

Cancer – Daily Horoscope (Sunday)

Hindsight is twenty-twenty, so don’t go blaming yourself for the road not taken. You are always very hard on yourself when it comes to playing the “what if” game, but that’s just a waste of time. You always put a great deal of thought and passion into the choices you make, and you do what you believe is right at the time. Besides, Moonchild, you are exactly where you are supposed to be. Stop doubting some of the turns you have made along the path of your life. An amazing reward on the horizon will prove that you have made excellent choices.

Extremely accurate and encouraging yet again. I have been playing the “what if” game all Sunday long. While I was working on the first complete outfit for my new virtual fashion line in Second Life I kept thinking “what if I never left Second life on a regular basis for months on end, and what if I started doing this back when I first joined Second Life in 2007?” Sure, I have created many things in Second Life but I have never really taking the time to put a lot of work and effort into my creations, and I have never planned on going “full throttle” with a brand in Second Life. I have had a furniture store in the past but I didn’t take it or myself seriously and I used to take Second Life for granted.

Recently I have had to sit down and re-evaluate my current situation, including my goals and priorities. It has become clear to me that Second Life is something which I enjoy taking part in and it has always been one of my goals to work on a unique architecture, fashion and furniture line in Second Life. I have just pushed the goal aside as being “wishful thinking” or “its only a game” but in reality I could have been much further in Second Life, earning a stable income if only I didn’t take it for granted back when I first started. Here I go playing the “what if” game again. What’s done is done, I can’t go back and there is no point fussing about it. After doing a lot of thinking, I am actually really glad that I am where I am right now because my past experiences have helped me a lot, I have learnt a lot and I believe that now is the right time to put everything into practice, and to do it properly and passionately from the start.

I wanted to snap some pictures to show you guys what my new virtual store looks like, and to give you a quick preview of the first complete outfit for my virtual fashion line. But I believe that in doing so I might ruin the moment, instead I will ask you to please “watch this space” because I plan to release a set of 3 matching outfits by next weekend or soon there-after. That is my personal deadline, and if I happen to miss it by a couple of days it would be due to college work or website design clients taking preference.

Thanks again for your continued support, have a great week!

Weekend – October 9th & 10th, 2010

This weekend has been rather uneventful that is why I have decided to put both Saturday and Sunday’s personal blog into a single post. My weekend started off with MODA modeling school student orientation in Second Life where i will be learning all the tricks of the trade in becoming a professional model in the virtual world. After student orientation I attended the Finally Fucking Friday party at JungleBoys in Second Life. I ran into an old friend, Eddi Haskell and after some chit chat we decided to blog-roll each other. I highly recommend that you check out his blog by clicking here. It will give you better insight into Second Life than what I can offer through my Second Life Blog at the moment, but watch this space as things will get better here over time.

Anyway, getting back to the real world: As you know my sleeping patterns and operational time zone is switching between EST and PST, even though I live in South Africa I do not live by South African time due to the fact that I am working with companies from the United States and I have responsibilities in the Second Life virtual world. In South African time my Saturday was spent sleeping all day waiting for my boyfriend to arrive. Due to my current situation and living arrangements I only get to see him once a week. He used to come over every Friday night but since he started working on Saturdays as well we only get to spend one night together, Saturday Night. Come Sunday evening he returns home again so that he doesn’t have to drive too far to get to work on Monday mornings. I really cannot wait until we get our own place. The plan was to save until we have emigrated to the United States but I think that we will probably work on getting our own place before the move since the current arrangements just aren’t really making us happy. Seeing him only once a week is the main reason for me not blogging much over the weekends and not being in Second Life on a Saturday night. Sometimes I would log in for brief periods but this is usually to show my boyfriend something which I created during the week. He would join me on Second Life if he had a better Internet connection at home but at this point its simply not an option.

We spent all of Saturday night mostly cuddling and talking about random things. On Sunday we got some Pizza from St Elmo’s and some chips from Steers with a DVD from MR Video. We dont have the iTunes store here in South Africa and since I don’t have DSTV, the only interesting thing to watch would be a movie rental. Since we’ve already seen most of the movies from Mr Video we decided to get a chick-flick which we haven’t seen before featuring  Jessica Simpson. My boyfriend thought that it would be lame but we both ended up thoroughly enjoying ourselves and as cuddled while eating pizza and watching “Major Movie Star” After watching the movie it was time for my boyfriend to go home. The moment he left I went into a mini emo-depro phase followed by a nap and now here I am writing this blog post.

I haven’t even looked at my daily horoscopes this weekend but since the weekend has passed I will go back, read, and share them with you now. I will also add my thoughts on how accurate these readings were since they weekend has already past. (Well technically its only 16:44 for me now since I’m on PST this week).

Cancer Daily Horoscope (Saturday):

You may be worried about something that hasn’t taken place and probably never will. If you keep fantasizing, in a negative way, about something occurring that you fear, you are experiencing the event over and over again even if it never happens. What is the point in that, Moonchild? The best thing to do now is to start fantasizing about wonderful things happening. Whenever a fearful thought occurs to you, and you start pondering the ramifications of that fear, dive into the uplifting fantasy instead. You are due for a reversal of fortune; help it along.

My innermost thoughts have been filled with negative fantasy lately. I am usually a very positive person but I’ve just been feeling dragged down since nothing seems to be working out as planned or expected. Saturday’s horoscope reading just proves that good fortune is on the way and that I should just remain positive, focussing on the good that will come instead of the fears which will probably never even happen. Reversal of fortune would be greatly appreciated right now. Let’s have a look at Today’s horoscope:

Cancer Daily Horoscope (Sunday):

Leave well enough alone when it comes to a conflict with a friend or a family member. Even though you’re not one to move forward without smoothing out ruffled feathers, in this case its best to keep your distance for a while. You can make it known that you’re open to reconciliation, but don’t do so in a pushy way and don’t make it complicated. This situation will right itself in time. In general, misunderstandings are the norm right now, but this phase should lose its grim by midnight tonight. In the meantime, work on visualization and calming exercises to center yourself. Tomorrow will be a fortune day.

The first part about conflict with a friend being open to reconciliation is complete greek to me. I haven’t really experienced any conflict today (at least not yet) and I’m not open to reconciliation with anyone (at least not that I know of, unless conflict is still to come). As for the rest about visualization and calming exercises, well, blogging and relaxing in my virtual home in Second Life is the most calming and interactive visualization that I know of, and I happen to be doing both of those things right now so I must be on the right path. I do hope that tomorrow will be a fortune day both financially and emotionally. Watch this space for updates.
