That's a REALLY good question and perfect start for this blog since I have been away for awhile.
I'm actually liking this SG homework idea because it is a wonderful way for us girls to express how we feel and it gives people a real insight to what SG truly is. A chance to see what we put into this site heart and soul as Hopefuls and Suicide Girls, and it gives us more respect for ourselves to be able to show that.
Thanks @missy and @rambo for giving us that chance. :)
SG has been such a major impact on my life in so many ways and emotional levels. It's definitely a true test of whether you can roll with the big dogs as they say. And I mean that, don't let anyone tell you different.
Let me remind you as I write this blog to each their own opinion and anything I may say is not meant to hurt only express MY own opinion. You can either have an open mind and look at things differently or be closed tight shut and condemn me with disagreement. Either way it doesn't really matter what we think.
SG is SG and it will not change for us. I'm not saying it's bad or else I wouldn't have stuck around for going on five years. Everything has it's pros and cons and the only con about SG is the high school drama. I can't help but emphasize on word 'DRAMA' and I guess it's the only reason I have never really fit in with any of the other ladies around the site.
Purely because I don't deal with catty bitches at all and also because I'm a lot older and wiser than that. I will not subject myself to the category of Cheerleader and follow around some bossy so called team leader. Girls trying to be just like her and letting themselves be controlled with hopes of popularity just cause they follow in the footsteps. Good luck with that!
SG is suppose to be about having freedom to be yourself. Not act like someone else. Or am I wrong?
That's my ONLY problem with this site, otherwise I love it. It's changed my life immensely as far as loving my body and myself. Two important things as I feel if your not happy with yourself you will never be happy with anything at all.
It has also been a important way of being artistic for me. I love art and even am a little artsy myself lol. I don't show it off as much as I should or the drawing part I should say. Always been really shy about that but being behind the camera makes my heart glow! It may seem conceited to say but I am my own masterpiece. I'm convinced. ;)
I like the fact that you can in a sense escape the real world around here. Sometimes I think of SG like a secret husband, kind of silly but let me explain. :) After a long, frustrating day of life I can come here and all people tell me how beautiful and sexy I am etc., etc. And that feels good! Who knows if I will ever find the perfect person that will do all those things every day like when I log into my account and see the comments on my sets.
Any woman can admit that she loves being appreciated and told nice things. I may never meet any of these people in real life but if I have to escape reality once in awhile to have what I want to feel good about myself then so be it. It's healthy to pretend once in awhile lol.
I know I am not as active on the site as a Hopeful should be but that comes from being a veteran. Even though I still want to do sets as long as I have been here I am willing to accept I will probably never be Pink. At this time I just enjoy kicking back and watching what goes on around here.
One very important thing SG has given me that I value is the back bone to speak my mind and be a strong enough person to stand up for myself. I've had a lot of people knock it, try and run me off the site, and give me ultimatums to choose them or SG. Nothing has phased me about feeling what I do here is right and a good choice.
Besides, we learn from our mistakes and it would of been a huge one to let any of those things deter me from being me, myself, and I. Following dreams is the excitement of life and keeps you young in mind, body, and spirit. Dreaming let's you be free! Even if your naked when it happens lol. ;)
I don't think I can ever imagine my life without SG now. It wouldn't feel normal. It would take an earth changing phenomenon to break this habit. Love you SG!
Okay. Homework is done! Hope I get an A+ lmao!! Now back to what I have been up to in general life.
Like I mentioned in my last blog lack of internet BLOWS!!! But I had to sacrifice it until I could pay the bill. In the meantime I have been satisfying my thrift store addiction and found some neat things lately. That's one of my life's secrets that very few know is that I adore thrift shopping and selling my finds online. Occasionally I keep things but I have to keep that in check as it's easy to become a hoarder lol.
One of the cooler things I collect is records that have strange cover art that was considered too controversial in their day to be sold. I found this epic and RARE on last week. :) It's for sale in my eBay store if anyone is interested.
Then this really funky orange couch. It's ugly and uncomfortable as hell but with some reupholstering I think someone will love it as much as I did. It's kinda neat because it folds down into a bed, something kids would like.
Cherry Blossom bedside table lamps. I waited an hour and a half for the store to open to snag these lamps for half price Friday, gotta love a good deal lol. But I couldn't resist the retro look and feel. The shades are not original but I think it gives the look they need. I thought about painting the blossoms and branches but haven't decided.
Recently I received something awesome in the mail! The last couple months the lovely @amina has been working on a special project for me. I had a belt that was falling apart and she made an almost exact replica of it that will last me another 20 years or more lol.
She is an amazing leather worker and has some really sweet stuff on her website. Check it out!
Here is my belt. :) And she was kind enough to send a couple free gifts!
Time for some new Fan art!!! A huge thanks and lotsa love to @nerdmachine for granting my request for his art. It was fun because he had me pick 4-5 different pics to put together something wonderful.
He did such a great job and I LOVE IT!!!! And you can purchase a print of it at AdManComics.
So recently I started a positive goal board on my fridge. Basically lot of pictures of things I wish to have or do in the future so I can see them everyday and think positive about having them. I really believe in this method of dream it and it will be. Then again I have always been a believer of dreams do come true, same thing.
The board is small now but growing fast lol.
I think everyone should try this out. It helps for a rewarding day if you can see what you want visually each morning you wake up. Reminds you to work harder. Like mine says 'Stop wishing. Start doing.', very valuable advice for sure!
And on that note I'm out. ;) Time to enjoy some sunshine! Hope you are all having a great day and Happy St. Patricks Day!
