Recent events

I do warn that there is a little bit of a emo bit at the beginning. If you want to skip that bit just go a few paragraphs down.

It's been awhile since I've posted. For a couple of reasons. Not much is happening in SL at the moment and I haven't actually been able to get on SL that much due to either work or internet problems.
Plus I've had to deal with things in my RL. Last month I was put on anti depressants for actually not being able to function properly with my day to day life. I'm a 26 transsexual male far away from any sorta physically changes. Even too far away to see a freakin specialist though the appointments in November. I lost my boyfriend of 7 years over it, my Dad cries now most times he sees me. I have a shitty job that hardly gives me any hours and when it does give me hours it's usually one 10 hour day with a 20 minute break. So you can see why I'm a little bit down.

I do have good things in my life. I have my friends and my Mum is very supportive. I also have Tel who will listen to me emo on. So life is not all that bad. I haven't mentioned I'm trans before in this blog but I think most people know now so *shrugs*

Another thing that happen RL was my dog was nearly put down. It was a very stressful week. Not only did I have to look after the dog but I also had to look after my Dad who was finding the whole situation very heart breaking. And though he has been..well..a bit of a cunt recently I couldn't let him bare it all by himself. I can't help but want to look after him. No matter how much he hates the choices I've made for myself. My dog is fine now though and though she still has cancer she'll hopefully will see out the rest of this year quite happily.

I also had to close Dead Chuffed inworld which was a bit sad. I should of really taken some photos. But I still have hope that I'll get a better job or sales will pick up on the MP site and I'll be able to open it again. It's not like I've totally stop everything.

OK now for some happy stuff!


Tel and I (well, mostly Tel) have been working on a haunted house for the sim. It was originally going to be in the main house, then it moved to the other side of the sim and THEN it moved to it's own sky box all together. But it looks amazing! I haven't got many pictures of it myself yet as I'm currently planning a machinema for it (script nearly done). Tel however has taken some awesome pictures (Here) as well as our good friend Franz (Here).  Here's what I do have though.



First changes to the house


Nomi's in the mist


Tel and I all demon'd up!


Me, mourning for my sanity..that died LONG ago.


View from inside the house with one of my favourite pictures.


Jack Skellington (Franz) came to take a look. Must get approval from the Pumpkin King!


The only scary thing about this table is that IT NEVER SHUTS UP!



I have the meeroo fever. I released the two kids Kerry and Imogen had and now have Kaede and Brendon who are two of the special meeroos that I've forgotten the names of lol. Troo I think.


Kaede is actually the largest now. She is one big lady!


"Gimme a cuddle, bitch!"

I keep on going to meeroo marketplaces and forcing myself not to buy anymore. Though I am tempted just to find a little plot of my own in these places, get some really nice meeroos and sell the nests. I still want a Koi. They are so cute! I did see however they have brought out special paint to give your meeroos different coats. The latest ones are Halloween themed and I might get one of them the skeleton one. It looks so cute X3..yesh, I'm a sucka for cute.

That's about it. One thig I haven't post up is the videos Tel and I made a couple of weeks back of our Nomi avatars. They are so cute! See how much I like cute. Cute is my anti drug! Mine isn't very good quality as I had to film it at my Dad's. But still silly :>



Annd this one is Tel's one! :D



Well that is it for SL. Tel and I don't get an amazing amount of time together at the moment but we're still going strong. It's nearly been a year since we first met and also close to when we first started this wonderful relationship. How time flies!

In RL my recent obsessions are Scott Pilgrim (Now that the hype has died down I like it again XD) and Batman. We've been playing Arkham Asylum now that my flat mate has a Xbox 360 and it rekindled my love for the 90's animation that was a truly underated cartoon. It was funny and clever all at the same time without being insulting towards kids intelligence. Much why I like the new series of My Little Pony. I think anyone of my generation (or those even a little older or a little younger) who really loved Saturday morning cartoons can really appreciate the obvious hard work that goes into these animations. Plus now that I've done a degree in animation I can't help but go "Oooh, that was nicely animated".

Anyway..I'll leave you with Batman singing the Jiggly Puff song. LOL!

  1. hi Derren,

    I have been thinking about what you wrote for a while and I thought I should write a comment even though it is not a comment with any wise stuff or anything. In fact I gave up on the "wise stuff" fountain since I have found a lot of the stuff I though was wise ended up in goof-ball city.

    Anyway hope that you find what you need and become happy in life. But only you know what that is. But I guess it is important that you don't just do stuff that seems like what you want but is not really what you want. Yikes this is a mess of a comment! I guess the bottom line here is that I wish for you the best. But just because things don't seem so good at the present doesn't mean that they are not going to be good in the future. At least that's my philosophy.

    I guess we all get a boat load of odd-ball brain seeds in our life and we need to figure out how to plant them in our garden. So here is a cosmic power glow coming over the Internet to you - hope to see you in world soon.

    Your friend Rammy
