Lanai’s Diary: OMG I Gained the Holiday 10… -Lanai Jarrico

2012 was filled with all sorts of news, events, drama and whatnot and on top of it all I stepped on my scale this morning and it went up a notch or two…or ten!   I had a rough year so I indulged in many holiday cookies as well as big traditional family dinners. I guess I’ll kick off the year doing Zumba.  Just not today…

 

Besides the holiday 10, things are finally getting back to some normalcy on the home front and I’m easing my way back into my virtual office.  I think 2013 will be an interesting year and I’m excited to share what I'm up to.

I went ahead and threw myself head first into a new project here in Second Life © and accepted the position to co-host a talk show on Pulse TV Network. The show is called Girl Talk and is slated to begin production in January 2013.  I must warn you all that I have no previous talk show experience, my opinions may be a little off tilt, too real for some or have nothing to do with the topic at all, but I think it may be worth checking out.

I feel  it is about time I expand my virtual media horizons and do something that may potentially embarrass myself and blemish my already questionable reputation or  it could catapult me into some sort of superstar situation where I can no longer hide behind the scenes and handle my business like the wizard of Oz did.

I would like to see new things happen this year in Second Life. Many of us need to break away from the repetitive nature of the current environment and introduce new ideas and even people from the real world.  The virtual world has been around a long time but we are still in need of mainstream attention. New people bring new ideas and it helps keep things fresh and interesting.

If I’m going to step out from behind the curtain, I need your help. I would like to hear from the community so I can help improve your experience. If you have a topic idea you would like me to address an issue or interview someone, please feel free to email me at lanai_jarrico@yahoo.com

From the Desk of Lanai Jarrico: A Glance Back at 2012: I’m so ready for 2013.

 

       Now that the hustle and bustle of the Christmas Holiday is winding down and the year is wrapping up, many are preparing for 2013 all around the world.  I'm glad that this year is coming to an end, it was a rough one. I find myself looking back at 2012 with mixed emotions; cautiously looking ahead. Since Doomsday didn’t snuff us out and with the Fiscal Cliff issue  looming in front of us. I’m kind of on the fence about the real world and unsure what to expect.

In the real world, between the increasingly out of place weather patterns, and tragic headlines to the whole 2^nd Amendment Right to bear arms debate.  I’m not sure I want help for my shameless Second Life© addiction. I believe it is safer than any synthetic marijuana high or bath salt binge I could go on and I certainly don’t want to deal with getting mugged, carjacked or shot at.   OK, Maybe.  I’m getting a little bit too paranoid here.  I’m just saying…It is a crazy world we are living in and I think some things need to change for the better so we can all feel safer in our own cities, towns and neighborhoods.

In Second Life, we don’t have to worry about bodily harm unless we face plant our keyboards due to lack of sleep, but we do need to protect ourselves from ignorant people that are negative and have absolutely no clue what business or even personal ethics consist of.  I think reputations and integrity need to be valued more.  Those with bad intensions need to find a new hobby to make room for those that can bring back the excitement of Second Life’s innovative digital culture.

 My hope for 2013 is that this year is better than last and the issues that are most important to us are addressed and resolved. This will help us move forward in both worlds.  

Have a Safe and Happy New Year wherever you are in the world. I look forward to a new year of experiences, news, event and ideas.

xoxo

Lanai

Fashion: Does My Butt Look Big In This? - Pandora Drezelan Reporting...

Everyone loves shopping in Second Life, well I do anyway and the one clothing item which is a MUST for every girl and guys inventory are jeans. I live in jeans and probably because I am not really into them in my real life is the reason why I have a fascination for them in my virtual life, we are lucky to have such a wide variety of styles and colors, jeans can just be worn as casual or be dressed up for a classier look, here is a list of a few of my favorites.

 

Babele Fashion.

Italian designed capris that come in a variety of colors, full length, three quarter length in a plain or ripped look. I like the drop down style and most of the jeans come with matching tops and shoes. You can be daring or a touch more conservative with these depending on how much butt you want to show off. I usually wear thong pants with them at least. I bought a couple of sets back in 2010. Blue Flowers and Newspaper moon and I still think they are great. Not too pricey either, the capri sets start at around 250L.

SLBR News: Second Life in 2012: A Year in Review- InKline Media Reporting...

Note: Clearly this list is by no means definitive and likely subject to much debate.

With the new year is just rapidly closing in, it’s the time of year when media starts rolling out their “best of” stories to kill air-time and column inches. So here’s what we believe makes this year’s list and why.
10) Digital Financial Center - Rumors have raged on about the possiblity of a new stock exchange opening on SL. SLBR can now confirm that the new exchange, Digitial Financial, will open on January 1st, 2013.
9) Second Life Community Convention Canceled in 2012 – Many observers, including the astute blogger Inara Pey of ModemWorld.Com, noted that SLCC had started to attract smaller and smaller crowds in the lead-up to the cancelation. Still, this year marked a symbolic splintering of the SL community.

DOOMSDAY 2012- Do not panic.... F*$# THAT! EVERYBODY RUN!!!!!!!

Doomsday has been predicted for centuries by many believers around the world, stemming back to times when history was etched into stone by the Sumerians. Later on, other civilizations like the Mayans created a calendar that ended mysteriously on December 21, 2012.  It supposedly predicted this date as an end of a cycle. What could they have really meant if we are all still here as of sunrise? Was it simply meaning, the Winter Solstice, because that happens every year.

 Those that truly believe in the end of the world went into survival mode by stockpiling or even flocking to different sacred mountains and areas around the world, expected some sort of display of a higher existence. Apparently so much thought has been put into it that many of the surrounding hotels and motels at these locations are booked solid by whole families.
