BREAKING NEWS: Chalice Found Squatting In New Dutchie Bed.

Before I even start with this post, here is the LM to Dutchie Furniture where you can buy Froukje Hoorenbeek's new release Adult Bed.

HERE

OK where to start? Froukje Hoorenbeek is just amazing. She has literally mastered SL building and creating, showing us that RL designs can certainly translate into our second lives to provide us with comfort, beauty and practicality. Froukje has improved on this bed so remarkably that I simply don't think SL would be worth living without it.

It is your one 'drop' shop for anything you would need to do in bed and then some. Whether you're solo like me, have lots of mates around for pajama parties or are a sex fueled couple, this bed will serve it up to you and then make itself after-wards. Oh Froukje, how did you do it?

For example, click on the bed to invoke the menu. In that menu you can opt for SOLO, FRIENDS, CUDDLES, KISSES, FOEEPLAY, SEX, MORE SEX, A BIT MORE and AFTERWARDS. Each option has a choice of 9 poses some complete with accessories. That is 81 different ways to enjoy the bed guys...freaking 81.

Chalice readily admits she is a SL virgin with an electric toothbrush so she only drove it in SOLO but you wait until you test drive it. You'll be busy for days. Available in Green, Black and Salmon, this bed is the Rolls Royce. NO, a custom make Rolls Royce no less and will give you hours of fun.

Come visit Chalice in bed...

Damn...it even has tissues and chocolates for when you dump his sorry ass to the kerb.  Froukje you're a genius.

Chalice In Wonderland: It's Peaceful In SL

Happy Easter everyone. I've sent out strict instructions to my people not to give me any chocolate eggs this year.I don't need the calories and it will interfere with my get fit campaign so tomorrow I'll give the eggs out and try to stay strong.  I'm really hoping to walk the Kokoda Trail in New Guinea next year so need to work on my stamina.

I have a lot of wardrobe descriptions to write out at the moment and while I'm steadily working through them, I frequently get writers block when the words simply don't come for a particular outfit. The job is not boring but it can get tedious trying to be fresh and innovative so I usually plonk myself out by the pool on my Plush Pod lounge and every now and then, look to the water for inspiration. Yep it isn't real but setting WL to some gorgeous effect and seeing how my waves and the sky interact is just like watching a movie on TV. It gives your imagination a terrific starting point and when I set the sound effects it adds to the ambiance even more. Yep SL can definitely carry me away.

I often wonder if other people do this too when working away in SL. Having my own beautiful space has certainly added another dimension that I hadn't realized was missing. My place on Coral Isle is by far the best SL residence I have lived in and I feel such a connection to it because every single thing on it, I put there.

I don't usually like whining about SL issues because it's futile and people get sick of it, after all, everyone's in a similar boat. Since coming back around September last year, I've noticed a dramatic decline in performance that is seriously taking away from my enjoyment.  I honestly don't know how I'd go modeling again under these conditions.  I got through the entire marathon that was Miss Virtual World in 2009, only crashing when the sim went down in addition to many, many runway shows so know the PC is up to it.  These issues forced me to abandon land when I had paid a month up front because it was so laggy there.  I've never experienced anything so bad before.  Now I'm on an island that has a top server and few people yet it's still affecting me.  I asked around and others have also said they are suffering debilitating performance issues too.  I hope something changes soon because it's such a shame that things have deteriorated to this extent and I think how other people are finding it with computer's and internet connections not as powerful as mine.     

Here's me enjoying my island getaway while I get the job done. I only wish I could enjoy such beautiful surroundings in my RL work.

Chalice In Wonderland: Home Sweet Home

It's taken a while but I think I've finished decorating.  I've purchased things I thought I'd like only to end up replacing it with something I liked more.  I do love my SL home because unlike my RL home, it's peaceful, quiet and I'm alone...lol.  It's my head space away from the frenetic craziness of my life, which I love by the way, but it can get a bit much.  Shopping was so much fun and with only 1225 prims to play with, I think I did good.

I wasn't happy with the water nor my previous off-sim islands so as of today, I went shopping to rectify the situation and now I finally have what I'm happy with.

 

Relaxing on my new jetty.

• Off-sim jetty from The Beach Store 
• Chair comes with 2 female/male poses and 1 stand where you lean on the back of the chair.  Also coffee table from LUXus Design.  Fab chair and awesome shop.
• Artisan lanterns from Scarlett Creative.  I love, love these.
• Off-sim island from Heart Garden Centre.  Only 20 prims and it gives the feeling of more space. Heart's would have to be one of my favorite SL businesses.
• For my water, I have used a combination of OneDom Magic Water Wave Reflections, IKoNoS Coral Reef Visual Sim Expand and Mediterranean V3 Wave Collection by Antreas Alter
• Candles only 1 prim each  by Plush Pod

I purchased these gorgeous little birds that move and chirp.  I named them Jula and Vixie cause they never shut up.

• Little birds come in a variety of colors and for $180L, you get 2 scripted birds and 2 non-scripted.  I purchased these in green and violet from Happy Mood.
• Deck chair in various colors from Scarlett Creative.  Look at that texture.

A birds eye view of my little piece of SL.  Well at least while I keep paying tier.  I finally went from rezzing boxes on my head to setting up and landscaping my own place all by myself.  Only took me 2 years but better late than...oh never mind.
