NEW YEAR... NEW BEGINNINGS-Lanai Jarrico Reporting...

 


With the New Year comes change. As hard as it can be to step out of your comfort zone and try new things, make resolutions that you intend to keep and do better for yourself in 2024, isn’t that the ultimate goal in life?  Looking back at the past year I’m sure some peeps are shaking their heads thinking ”WTF was that?” While others are finding their groove in life realizing peace matters and change is needed to create a positive environment. This also includes taking an inventory of your friends and distance yourself from those who disrupt your peace.  I’m down with that.  



Starting off the New Year, all I want is to be happy, live and let live.  It holds different meanings to everyone. For me, I just want to feel empowered as a strong woman and make the right decisions while navigating through life. Remember to allow time for self care and not worry about the extra noise.   I’m making 2024 my year of renewal and cleansing my space from any negative energy. Ain’t nobody got time for that. Let that shit go.



In the real world, we are the masters of our destiny just like in Second Life. This is an escape from the real world for a little while where we can be individually creative or collaborate with others. I’mm already getting the ball rolling for the New year in the real world and it's time to do the same in Second Life.  It is little things like this that can make you smile and feel refreshed. 




I was inspired to write this because after 18 years in Second Life, I realized I could abandon my  free vintage dojo premium member home and relocate to a new SL house. I didn’t pay attention to the free Linden homes since I spend most of my time at The Media center but sometimes it's nice to retreat back to your own little space to create that SL work/life balance.



To begin,  go to www.secondlife.com and log in. Go to Account> Land Manager>”Linden Home”.  That's where you will find your existing home if you have one already or click the link to get one. (You have to be a premium member)  I toured models until I found something I liked.



Once you choose the style you want you will get a link to teleport to your new home! I was surprised to see the quality of the various home styles and layouts to choose from. It was easy to do. I must say, SL really stepped it up!



 The bigger surprise is, you can still swap your house out with any of the styles in the rezzer with 8 or more homes to choose from as well as a Linden Homes Security System.


 It doesn’t stop there! The house itself comes complete with a decorate feature inside so you can customize walls colors, floors,wood trim, doors and windows in your new home.  

 For premium members,  The parcel size is 1024 sq meters and 351 prims to use. You get a little more space and perks if you are a Premium Plus member.



I was able to decorate my home using low land impact furnishings I scored at Maya’s Architecture. You won't be disappointed by the quality and prices!

Now that you got the step by step on how to get a free Linden house, I wish you the very best in your new beginnings! Have a blessed New year!

Lanai's Diary: Ahhhhhh Home Sweet Home or Ghetto Public Housing in SL? ~ Lanai Jarrico Reporting...


I don't know if I should install rows of chains down my door and a deadbolt or get a guard dog or something cause this is seriously messed up...
I don't know about any of yall but I grew up in the hood and got the hell out of there at 17 for a reason. Aside from getting knocked up but that's a whole other diary entry...
The streets were rough with drama going on any day of the week. From cat fights between tacky hood rats, drug raids, beat downs and what have you.... Issues were constant in such a concentrated area where it's mostly dominated by the drug dealers and assorted family members living just down the street from each other . So if someone got out of hand growing up, all you had to say was "I'ma get my cousins after you" and if you came from a big ass family like I do someone was getting a round of ass whoopins from a crew. And that's how we survived.
I managed to dodge bullets, ghetto drama or a nice crack addiction but years and a virtual world later I kinda feel like I moved back into the hood. WTF?
