Have yourself a merry little Christmas


I've always loved Christmas. Some people get depressed by the end of october and until Spring comes back, and I must admit the lack of light also has that effect on me, but by the beginning of december something changes, maybe the Christmas lights in the streets, the smell of hot wine and cinnamon, or the look on the children's faces when they spot the colored shop windows... Or maybe just the thought that, however hard the year may have been, it's now coming to an end, letting room for a new one, full of hopes and expectations. I am an optimistic. I figure new year means new good stuff. 2009 was a cursed year for many people I know.
This year I lost my grandpa whom I loved dearly, I divorced the ony man I thought worthy of being given a chance at married life, I lost track of a very dear friend that I will always miss (and if you read these lines, I hope you are safe and happy, my favorite fake spouse) and lots of other little dramas and complications in my RL and SL.
Now that I look back at it, all I can think of is "wow! I survived". My friends say that I've changed this year, that I was forced to grow more mature and they're probably right, I never wanted to become a "grown up" because then, you get wrinkled, you get old and you die. But close to my 32nd birthday I have to admit it's actually not such a big deal, and I feel fine. All in all, I am thankful, this year I realised who really matter, and to all of them I send a huge hug: Eithne, my precious friend and shoulder to cry on, I wish that in 2010 none of us needs to cry on the other's shoulder (and that we meet, at last). Richy, mijn draak, without your laugh life would be less tasty, I wish you no hospital at all this year, for you and your family. Aryanna, Boaz, Kouse, Renee... please be always inspired in creating beautiful things, you are beautiful people.
Kiwi, Gertie, Chiller, Cux, Saffron, Lavendar, Rosalie, Darkmoon, Dawnbeam, Opacus, Tavia, Vox, Maplesky, Immortelle, Draggy, Ken, Tex, Daria... I wish you all something better in your lives, thank you for making my year less hard just by being my friends.


Now, what to hope, to expect, for the year to come?
  • that the people I love find peace and happiness, always have a roof above their heads and food in their plates, and be in good health
  • that the people who hurt or betrayed me realise how mean they have been and don't ever make anyone else suffer
  • that I can go back home, at last
  • that you, reader, have a wonderful year!




Me, myself and I... and blog posts


I'm being quite a loner on SL these days. I mainly log to catch goodies, take pics, write blog posts and log out. I am still connected with the ones I love though, and enjoy an occasionnal chat with my firends, but nothing like the social life I used to have as a roleplayer. Much less drama, too, which is a nice change. I've cleaned my friendslist from all the people who were not really friends. Acquaintances disappeared, I only stick to what and who matters. In that same Idea, I've been cleaning my inventory and found some cute things I didn't even know I had, and some ugly things I don't have anymore already...

My RL is changing too, slowly but surely. My divorce was settled a few days ago, and it feels good to know that chapter is over. Good to know also that the man I was married to is now a precious friend. Funny how my RL can be drama-less (just had the easiest divorce ever) and my SL... not so much. *giggles*

Betrayal and ugly people...

Ah... don't you just luuurve drama? I personnally don't. Really. But it seems SL is full of people who have nothing else to do with their lives... Probably their RL is so flat and uninteresting they need to go watergate on any glitch in their SL, they need to find people to adore and be "loyal" to, even the most ordinary manipulative power hungry control freak... Anyway, they do it at the cost of what, to me, is the most precious thing, friendship and trust. And that makes me angry. All I wish to mommy's good little puppy dog is a life at her image, full of hypocrisy and betrayal, and to her "boss", just that one day all the hurtful things she's said and done get back to her face, not even stronger, no, just AS strong as what she gave.
My only consolation is that my pixelated soulmate left before he could see that...
You, reader, don't know me, or barely, but let me tell you one thing, I put trust and friendship above these ridiculous control wars, and I keep my conscience clear.
Anyway, I spilled my guts and I am not going to bore you any longer with my anger and bitterness, especially since they never stay long...

Now, what to do next? Since what was my home for the past 2 years will never be an option again (and you know what? Their loss). I think I'll deal with the blogging for a while, that, at least, is a safe thing, plus showing people the work of designers I appreciate as creators and friends is very satisfying, even if their creations, at least what SL can see of them, are only pixels, these people are true artists and generous and kind souls:
Aryanna DeCuir (Geisha Dreams Skins)
Kouse Singh (Kouse's Sanctum)
Lano Ling (Poetic Colors)
Dimawa Capalini (D'Signs)
Boaz Sands (Simply Fae) ...
Just thank you.

See you on Fae in the Wardrobe



Love

Rosie

Leaving home

Sometimes, when you lose a friend, life is just too hard to bear. It seems like the world is coming to an end, and you need to move on, otherwise you'll just end up buried with the lost... I left Avilion yesterday, I stripped myself of all the titles I had rightfully earned, and the one I should have earned but never was given to me. It's funny how easy it is to untick a box... I'm surprised no one ever managed to do it the other way round. You put in time and investment, and you think people will notice. But they don't, they break you and insult you instead.
To whom it may concern, if you ever read this, I am not scared of you anymore. I am a good person, loyal to those who deserve it, I know what I'm worth, I am a successful young woman and luckily I have other things in my life that a computer and a pixelated world.
I have tried hard to find it in my heart to forgive you for the way you treated me. I just can't. Now I'm moving on. And it's your loss.

Regrets

I know I haven't posted for a while, but I've had RL issues I won't bore you with (especially because the maybe 3 people who read this blog know about them already). I just wanted to say I think I am back now, trying to find a balance... In the past few weeks I've managed to hurt someone I love dearly, mainly because I was hurting and needed to blame someone for all the anger and frustration I was feeling... I am sorry.

Photo contest

When I received the note from my friend Morrigan (The Black Canary, you can read about his beautiful work here), I started bouncing up and down...a contest!!! So I started thinking, and thinking, and thinking some more... Actually I've been thinking about it for a month, trying clothes, poses and all, until I was finally happy with my entry and could release it in the Flickr pool...So here it is for you:



Deadline is on the 25th of July, so pretty soon, so hurry if you want to be in!

A wonderful evening

It started with some dagger training, and despite being very bad at it, I had lots of fun... I beat Rayne a few times, cut my husband's little finger (poor Tan... *hugs him*) and got killed at the beginning at the battle royale.

Then I ran home to wash in the waterfall and change (I didn't want to go dance with my beloved being all sweaty) and headed to the drum circle for a dance:




*sighs happily and gets under the sheets, yawning*
Good night!

Flying over Avilion on a dragon...

I just took my first dragon flight!! Yes, I hear you , I am a fae, I have wings and I can fly by myself... but you know what, it was an entirely new experience... Sir Jayden can lift up to two people at the same time, and all the profits go to Relay for Life... Go to Avilion... (dress code applies)and have some fun!

Just one thing though... you *may* want to tie your hair before you go...

Happy Mother day Momma Fae...

Apparently in some parts of the world, today is mother's day... my sister Suzie organised a party for our fae godmother, Juniper...

What does Rosie do...

...when she's stuck out of SL? Well she starts sorting her things, makes disastrous attempts at creating (clothes, skins or other stuff that I am not showing you, ever, because they're really ugly... no REALLY). I also rummage through my pictures and find pretty ones of the most glamourous couple of Avilion to my opinion *giggles*, and I show them to you...






Let's see... does SL work now? Hmm I highly doubt it... Nope... *sighs and starts Gimp*

samedi 2 mai 2009

...and friends over

Left to right: Eithne, Rosalie, Boaz, Devora, me, Alexandra

New house...

I was very sad and upset the other night (for RL personnal reasons that I won't detail here, and I needed some major changes to cheer me up... I removed my tree house and put in that lovely little cottage instead... I am now trying to convince Mae and Eithne to get the same...

April shower party 2009

Hm... I was so dazzled by my gorgeous husband that I completely forgot to take pictures...
Here's one of me before the party though.



Dress is from Kouse's sanctum,
Hair is from Magika,
Skin is from Curio,
Eyes are from Poetic Eyes
Hair thingie was a RFL clothing fair hunt gift but you can ger the flower garland at Evie's Closet
Wings are from Fairy pearls

(due to a crappy internet connection -some things just don't change- I will only be able to add the slurls tomorrow)

What happens if you take a guy shopping...

Well... he gets bored, and starts making funny faces...











"Rose, please, tell me you're not taking pictures..."









Thanks you Vox for entertaining me!

Honeymoon pictures!

No worries, nothing naughty here, or barely... Only luuuuuuurve, and gorgeous people... I mean, Tan and I of course!









I just love these pictures, they are soooo... sooooo... I don't know... don't we look hot? lol

samedi 11 avril 2009

Just a pic or two

Today was an OOC beach party in Avilion and I went wearing that pretty swim suit I got on a midnight mania board the other day



Later on, after watching a Rogue dagger tournament (and my incredibly handsome husband wearing next to nothing...) I went home to get ready for a dance at the drum circle...

vendredi 10 avril 2009

Me fighting... seriously...

So... I got bored of shopping, camping, lucky chair stalking and all, and wanted to try something new... I also had all these pretty fight outfits in my inventory, and would never wear them because I'm supposed to wear a dress in Avilion, since I'm in none of the combat classes... I asked my friend Vox if he could teach me, we went to pick up a free sword at Steel Souls, Altarius Flanagan's shop in Avilion Vale, and headed to the Nexus where I received my first sparring lesson...

Vox Rhiadra: NO ONE IS FIGHTING YOU
Vox Rhiadra: and so....
Vox Rhiadra: WHY ON EARTH
Vox Rhiadra: is your spellfire down
Rosemarie Indigo: 78?
Rosemarie Indigo: How is that even possible???
Altarius Flanagan: you hit yourself
Eithne McBride: Oh heaven help us all - Sister Rose is weilding a sword!

Then the training started:

Vox Rhiadra: You're way too close (you look hot by the way).. but don't stand so close.




Yes, At first I really really REALLY sucked, I managed to hurt myself...
But then...

Vox Rhiadra: did i just see you win?????????????????
Vox Rhiadra: you shitting me right?

Only problem, when you fight, is that you're supposed to remove as many prims as you can... which, for a fashion brat like myself, can be a problem... I finally accepted to remove some of my attachments, including my beloved 51prims eyelashes from Magika

Rosemarie Indigo: It took Vox an hour to get me out of my skirt
Tan Tantalus: uhm pardon?

lundi 6 avril 2009

Me posing... Beware... naughty content!

When I am not in Avilion, I usually am shopping, taking pictures, or lucky chair stalking....




There currently is a Flickr contest pool and here is my entry...
