In The Times Of Astral Dreams

EXPLORING SECOND LIFE

How long would you wait for love?

"51 years, nine months, and four days.

That is... how long I have loved you from the first moment I cast eyes on you until now."

-Florentino Ariza (Love In The Time Of Cholera)

Hay Amores 

- Shakira • El Amor En Los Tiempos Del Cólera

Hello Beautiful World and Thank God It's Friday!

Welcome, this is ASTRAL  DREAMS (Moderate).

Sim's Description

Since 2008, Astral Dreams offers everyone a space to better enjoy their experience in the metaverse,

with ever more refined settings and increasingly careful themes. Now in a wonderful Steampunk

version, where you can find friends, music, sympathy, and love.

Fridays are movie nights for Steppenwolf and me. Tonight we'll be watching one of my favorite movies,

2007, Love In The Time Of Cholera. A super romantic film based on the novel El Amor En Los Tiempos Del Cólera

by Colombian's Nobel Prize-winning author Gabriel García Márquez..,

Love In the Time of Cholera - Official Trailer

It going to be an epic night for sure with such masterpiece to watch.

For me, tonight it'll probably be the 20th time that I watch this movie, and for Steppenwolf his first time.

I just really hope he loves it just as much as I do. ;) I highly recommend this beautiful movie.

I place it right next to The Notebook which is another one of my favorites.

Time to go now but before I do just want to share some news with you, guess who has a fan club now?

No, it is not me, I am not that popular. :P

Need a hint? How about several?

Barks, licks, jumps, fetches, sniffs, and wags his tail.

Yes, my beautiful Sunny now gets his own mail from his fans, how about that? ;)

I am thinking about making a page sometime in the blog just for him to share his mail with you.

Thank you for stopping by, so much appreciated!

Much love,

Lori Novo

What Died Didn't Stay Dead

EVENT COVER

Hello Beautiful World!

This is Vivi, one of my two best friends.

Here we are at my home resting after an exciting girl's day out shopping.

"Just remember, if we get caught, you're deaf and I don't speak any English."

Vivi and I could easily be called sisters because of how close we are.

But I've been there and done that in the past and to be honest with you, the SL sisters and brothers thing

just doesn't work for me. I am not going down that path again and Vivi feels the same way I do.

We are great best friends, and we are keeping it that way!

She is very special to me together with my Steppenwolf.

Lori Novo: omg you are so curvy

Lori Novo: when I grow up i want to grow up to be curvy just like you 'cept for the huge boobs :P

Vivi: :P

Lori Novo: lol

- Taylor Swift -

This beautiful song by Taylor Swift was shared with me this morning by my daughter 

who warned me not to cry when I listened to it. I still cried.

The lyrics are sad and reminded me of my mother who passed away six years ago.

"Never be so kind, you forget to be clever

Never be so clever, you forget to be kind

And if I didn't know better

I'd think you were talking to me now

If I didn't know better

I'd think you were still around

What died didn't stay dead

What died didn't stay dead

You're alive, you're alive in my head

What died didn't stay dead

What died didn't stay dead

You're alive, so alive..."

-Lyrics

So this is for you, my beautiful mother.

So earlier today, Vivi and I got together to go to the HAIR FAIR 2023 (General),

which will be running from June 17th - July 2nd with 6 regions of hair, hair accessories, and

poses/props and donating a percentage of every sale to Wigs For Kids,

truly a very noble cause. This is the main reason this is my favorite event in Second Life.

The other reason is that hair has been my #1 weakness since day one.

Some designers have also included free gifts for us and even better, some are donating up to 50%

and even 100% of their sales to this organization. Bravo to them!

Vivi and I had so much fun being silly and trying hair just to see who would wear it better.

Of course, she won every time. What can I say, she is absolutely beautiful. A real stunner that even if

she wore a mop on her head she would still be looking good. OMG, I hate her so much!! <3

In the picture below we are wearing a 1L hair by Loveholic which includes the hair, hair wisps,

bloody ears, bloody horns, and a halo. This 1L price is only for the duration of the event.

Wigs For Kids is a wonderful organization for children and young adults dealing with hair loss.

It provides recipients at no cost, hair pieces made from donated hair. In the past, I was fortunate enough 

to donate my hair on several occasions. It fills you with such great joy knowing

that your hair will be putting a smile on a child's face. ;)

This is all for now my beautiful people.

Hope to see you all at the Hair Fair this year, contributing to this beautiful cause

and making a difference in a child's life.

Much love,

Lori Novo
