Project Positivity

I saw my friend Randi plurk her Project Positivity picture and I was curious as to what it was all about. She also had the link to where it all started so I checked out the blog post from Keira Seerose over on the SL Style Directory. I love this 'challenge'.

I had recently followed in the footsteps of someone who I admire for her courage, determination and honesty, Auguste Finistair, and did my 5 confessions about the RL me on plurk so this was perfect.

Normally I would have found it hard to talk positively about myself. But recently I have sorta seen the world differently....the SLWorld as well. So at 8:07pm today, 4th of January (Australian Time) I stated my first positive about myself.....

1. I love my eyes. I think they are my best feature.

..........then I just kept going....................

2. I love that I have a bubbly personality.
3. I love being artistic. I can draw, sew, paint, build & write.
4. I love that I have a huge family that I can always depend on.
5. I love that I can say proudly I am a plus size girl. Curves Rule!
6. I love being tall.
7. I love that I have two sisters that are 8yrs & 12yrs and I am 32yrs even though some think the age diff. odd.
8. I love that I love deeply and faithfully
9. I love my sense of humour, no matter how warped it is.

..........and at 8:36pm I got to my last positive about me. Which is also a positive about a person I consider my best friend who also has her own difficulties realising she is someone of a lot more worth than she gives herself credit for. Sanura Snowpaw is my best friend and someone that I consider a sister so it felt only right that I share my positives with her........

10. I love that I made a friend for life in SL. She is as much a sister to me as my RL sisters are and I would do anything for her. <3>

Even if you don't have a flickr page to share/contribute your Project Positivity, or you don't have a blog to share it on, stop and take a few minutes for yourself and even just jot them on the nearest scrap of paper. We all need a little positive encouragement in our lives from time to time and we can't accept it and make a better life for each other if we ourselves can't even say something positive about ourselves.

Thank you Keira for this awesome 'challenge'.

I decided to use an RL pic of me. Since these positives are about the secretary behind the keyboard for Arora's pixels.

52 Weeks of Colour - Yellow

I was a little worried about doing this weeks challenge. Yellow isn't exactly the easiest colour to wear, and it certainly doesn't go well with my normal skin tone. So I took longer to decide on my outfit this week and during my thinking process a mini meme appeared in plurk with 'What colour crayon are you'. Turns out I am in fact a yellow crayon*...huh...go figure. So that spurred me on then to come up with this bright and cheerful wintery look. I had to search through quite a few skins until I was satisfied and I have to say.....I love this dark skin!


Skin: Dahlia - Mocha - potpourri from Cupcakes
Hair: Winter II (update) - Onyx from .::S::. Secrets Hair (beanie is colour/texture change, lemon shown)
Eyes: Dreaming - Boscage from negaposi
Eyelashes: No1 NoAlpha Lashes from Miamai
Makeup: Belina Lipstick 05 from [CheerNo] Femme (on face close-up only)
Sweater: Snuzzle Sweater {Black} from .: Somnia :.
Scarf/Shirt/Jeans/Belt/Boots: Yellow Jellies from .:[NMD]:. (complete outfit, also comes with white rolled up sweater not shown here)

* Results of being a Yellow Crayon are:

You Are a Yellow Crayon

Your world is colored with happy, warm, fun colors.
You have a thoughtful and wise way about you. Some people might even consider you a genius.
Charming and eloquent, you are able to get people to do things your way.
While you seem spontaneous and free wheeling, you are calculating to the extreme.

Your color wheel opposite is purple. You both are charismatic leaders, but purple people act like you have no depth.

I had fun with this one believe it or not. Most that know me, know that I am not a fan of pink or light purples that look like pink or anything close to it. But whilst searching for something plum for this post (I didn't own ONE SINGLE THING that was even close to being plum in colour) I came across this AWESOME hair do. whilst it is more pink than plum I just love it. So I couldn't resist wearing it for my plum photo. Thanks again Luna for this challenge. It's fantastic.
