Virtual Beggar AKA Tylerisbomb




In this wholesome dolly world we call Stardoll, many interesting ideas have been conceived by some of the most craziest members. Virtual heartaches. Virtual weddings. And, hey there's even a virtual cemetery!

But recently, this is one of the lowest AND most disturbing I have every seen.

Virtual beggar.

Seriously.

"Get" money from my account?

HAHAHAHAHA!

You think I am EVER going to trust you with my precious suite, huh Tyler?

And if you don't have money to spend, tsk tsk, too bad mister. There's something I'd like to suggest that I am puh-ree-tty sure you haven't heard of. It's called WORK. The one that actually gives you salary. I highly recommend it.

Just because you DO NOT HAVE MONEY means that you could readily assume that your friends would naively entrust their stout virtual purses to you.

Nuh-uh. Not this girl. Aaaand Nope. Not
even that one.

PLUS!

I-am-just-so-sure that it's NOT JUST my thousands that you are greedily after.

Poor thing.

My dear Perezita was right, YOU are
a LEECH!

Tyler, let me sum this up for you:

You're ugly. And you're ugly inside. You don't have talent & you can't even write. And you don't have money & after this post of your attempted hacking, I bet you won't have friends.

So, question. What's left of you?


. .. .



Oh & by the way Tyler, I've Cc'ed a copy of your message to Stardoll already.

Yup.

Signed. Sealed. Delivered.



Enjoy the weekend!


Bye for now because I have an elephant to feed!



ADORABLE!

My new adopted pet.

Victoria.

Such A Lovely Pair!




Familiar?



No no no. I meant the earrings.

Look.




This Alicia Keys hit was released almost a year ago & even if Stardoll decided to shell this out at the Star Plaza just now, I'm still loving this pair!

No doubt, I'm going to hang out with these guys more often!


*belts out*

"Nothing really matters
I don't really care
What nobody tells me
I'm gonna be here
It's a matter of extreme importance
My first teenage love affair
Eh eh eh eh, eh eh, eh eh eh eh aay"

Same Old Brand New You






And I'm referring to the Cuoco Dress & Violet Voile Dress.

As I was cleaning out my virtual closet {& still am}, I noticed these never-been-worn vintage clothes have "magically" transformed into MUST HAVE pieces! For me, at least.
Yes, I've never considered wearing them since its release light years ago because well, y-e-a-h they were nice but uh, these dresses were graphically challenged. The Cuoco Dress was dotted by bright neon doodles & the Violet Voile Dress was just flat . No texture, no detail. Just a plain cut-out of violet construction paper with grey outline.

But LOOK!



The details are just impressive! The colours are more vivid & the feel & texture of these clothes are intricately enhanced!

Good job, Stardoll!

I'm not quite sure why they picked these two specific dresses to refurbish but can I just say, I am loving both of them! And for sure I'll be wearing these very soon!

Has anybody noticed other clothes getting an overhaul?

Oh also, where's Noelle?

Hello?

Just FINE. .. . WHOOO!

I know of a lot of professionals who de-stress from their highly consuming jobs by having contradicting outlets. My aunt who is a surgeon finishes at least 3 pages from her colouring book before she sleeps. My friend's uncle assembles toy cars after a heated debate at the courtroom. And my Papa watches Disney Channel. And I, Stardoll.

What started out as a not-so-serious hobby more than 2 years back became my most effective ventilation. Stardoll whisks me to a place of creativity. But with the website's gazillion options to challenge our imagination, making my Medoll's limbs pose differently from our usual stiff virtual selves in sceneries is which I, deem to be the best cerebral workout.

And this picture became my recent {and favourite} project.

With Stardoll's generous release of a virtual version of this, and my being a huge doll collector, I MUST have this actual doll on my case & a MeDoll version at my Scenery.

Oh, & THANK YOU Angelic Dreamz for the photos!

I did remix it a bit with a few accessories, a flip of her signature hair, a flirtatious Marilyn-esque blown pose & of course, a tinge of 13 yr. old blush.

Aaaand this is what I came up with.

BUT

It just won't load!

Frustrated as I was, I had to do this all over again which means countless hours of manipulation. And trouffles. With vanilla-hazelnut brew.

Aaaanyway, my second try on this DID NOT load again.

Brimming on splitting my laptop in two with a karate chop, I just had to dissect what was hindering my scenery to load. After a few tests on number of items, complexity of positions & functionality of the resize options AND after 5 more recreations of this exact same scenery, I was able to rule out what Stardoll can actually save & load in a certain scenery.

*sigh*

So, there was no choice but to make a simpler version of what I previously had in mind.

THIS was the final cut.

Finally.

It didn't really capture what I initially envisioned based on what I previously created but uh, at least it loads now. The details are not as rich & the proportions are inexplicably saved differently. I was presented with no other choice but to content myself with this version rather than nothing.

I read at It's Stardoll Gossip B!tch! that there was a Dress Up As Barbie thingy a few weeks back & I was R-E-A-L-L-Y excited to enter but due to the scenery difficulty, I wasn't able to.

Oh well.

And to those asking how this was done, I am glad to show those interested how to re-do your hair & re-pose your MeDolls in your sceneries. Just let me know. okay?

Time to strip myself from this Barbie ballgown & change into my chef's uniform because I have gourmet to do.

Yes, from oh-so-fine Barbie to fine dining.


*sings*

So I like what I see when I'm looking at me when I'm walking pass the mirror

Don't stress through the night at a time in my life ain't worried bout if you feel it

Got my head on straight I got my vibe right I ain't gonna let you kill it

See I wouldn't change my life, my life's just fine




Fine. Fine. Fine.

20 Days Too Early


Image and video hosting by TinyPic

And aren't you glad it is?

. .. .

Philippine Time, that is.

It is March 5 today, right?

Right.

As I made my usual rounds at the Star Plaza, one piece looked familiar. I remember seeing this somewhere before. As I searched my memory (& Stardoll Magazine) I figured this Bisou Trousers is set to be released on March 25. Not that I'm excited at this piece
(not really a fan of trousers, especially THIS one)

BUT

This quite confused me.

I found myself rechecking my iPod calendar.

Strange.

The one on the advert is a tad too silvery whilst the one for sale recently at the Star Plaza is darker. But at the info given, it's the same brand name AND stamped as Hot Buys. Nevertheless, Hot Buys Collectors would be ecstatic to own this whatever the aesthetic may be & despite the undeserving 14 stardollar price tag.

*ouch*

And can I just say, I love these kinds of Stardoll glitches. This equally jumpstarts my morning like that of my own crunchy triple chocolate trouffles {Arci Trouffles} which I enjoy every 6am. Trust me, chocolate boosts you more than caffeine! And it gives your eyes a hint of sparkle . .. .

*sigh*

Aaanyway. Back to Hot Buys.

So, did Stardoll make a mistake on putting March 25 on the release date at the advert of the March Hot Buys? Or did they just release this 20 days too early? Regardless of global time zones, almost 3 weeks is a HUGE difference.

To those Hot Buys Collectors (guilty on my Isabella.A.Two account)
who need this Hot Buys Bisou Trousers for their collection earlier than everyone else:

RUSH! RUSH!


*hurry hurry lover come to me*

GENERATION OF DREAMS BARBIE® Doll PINK LABEL™ Collection

(photo courtesy of Angelic Dreamz)

I already pre-ordered this GORGEOUS doll {which happens to be released on my Birth Month!} since this strikingly resembles my MeDoll.

Or so I wish . .. .

I SO LOVE Stardoll for generously sharing this exact same exquisite ball gown to every member, both Superstar & non-Superstar! And for FREE!

Wish we had more days like this.
