At times I feel very privileged to have such wonderful friends, even if I feel I don’t deserve them. I’m quite anti-social and a hermit so not the most engaging friend at times. But I still appreciate the few that have stuck around and learned to deal with my mood swings and encourage me to be a better person.

Mr. Chaddi Masala is also one of those friends that has been there for me even when I threaten him and call him names. Well can you blame me? Do you know what his name is? In my language, chaddi means underwear and masala means spice. When I first read his name I was like ewwwwww. I remember the first day I was telling him about the cool indian club I hung out at when I was a newb. He asked me where it was so I gave him the lm and said, “Ok, but don’t you DARE tell people you know me! I don’t want to be associated with someone named SPICY UNDERWEAR!!” And of course the brat that he is, the first thing he did was go to the club when it was packed with all my friends and announce, “Hey guys, I’m Berry’s friend.”

So I was hanging out with Mr. Spicy a few days ago and I really liked what he was wearing. He always brings out these really cool avatars and outfits that totally blow me away. I am still in love with his samurai outfit. This outfit is called “Death’s Master” and I thought it was very well textured and would be great for rping. I had to take a shot of him in it with his emo eyeliner on. LOL Totally loved the whole look and of course he happily obliged.

That’s what friends are for. They’re there for you when you need them and put up with all your crazy mood swings and crankiness. This love Thursday I am thankful for all my friends – Zaara, Cat, Sean, Chad, Sawyer, Winter, Elu, bishes (you know who you are) and everyone I chat with on plurk. Although I don’t get the chance to read all your plurks or respond to them, you guys always manage to make me laugh and smile, even when I’m being cranky and ranty. <3

Happy Love Thursday everyone! <3

“Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget.”

It’s rare that you find a person who’s so kind, considerate and giving that they completely offset the bad you’ve seen in humanity. I’ve known Berry for nearly two years, and every day I am still in awe of what a wonderful person she is. Through good times and bad, she’s always been there for me. I simply lack the words to truly describe how much I love and appreciate her. It is an honor to call her my friend. Happy Love Thursday, Berry. <3

Hello all! I’m Sean Black, and I’ve been a resident of Second Life© for nearly six years. After enduring physical and verbal abuse from Strawberry Singh for the past several months, I’ve decided to give in to her demands that I share with you my rather quirky perspective on SL©. My interests vary greatly, and my posts will definitely reflect this. Hopefully, some of you out there will get some use out of them.

Now, I know the items that I’m covering in this post aren’t new. I wasn’t shooting for bleeding edge fashion, just a look I put together while out shopping one night that I enjoyed. I’d been puttering around the grid visiting some of my favorite shops when I ended up at Aoharu. I hadn’t visited in some time and I was surprised at all the new items I found. These were just a couple of the ones I picked up.

I was trying to find just the right place to snap the photographs for this post, and really couldn’t think of one off the top of my head. I contacted Makenzie Irling for a suggestion and she chose the perfect place. She suggested Nordari, and it was exactly what I was looking for.

*Disclaimer: Because I wanted to show the clothing as they’d look when purchased, I haven’t edit them in any way, other than the overall color adjustments done to the images.

So what can be more exciting than a new &Bean skin? How about a new &Bean skin for the girls and the boys? I think I’m turning into just a male blogger looking at my posts recently. I can’t help it, mens designers are kicking serious ass lately and for some reason I am having a blast dressing up my male self.

From stylish casual clothes, amazing hair, sexy skins and now look at these exquisitely textured suits. I am a huge fan of AOHARU and the sculpts they use. Luckily for me most of the items fit me perfect out of the box, but there is also an excellent resize script within.

Both male and female &Bean skins have been released and are L$850 each.

The suits can be found in many different colors and patterns. Check out the AOHARU blog for more details.
