When I was a kid living in the Philippines, we had a huge hurricane one day. Afterwards as I walked around exploring the damage, I found a little injured bird hiding behind a fallen tree. It’s wing have been broken and it looked like it wasn’t gonna survive the day. I took it home and wrapped it on a small blanket I made to keep it warm. I feed it and nurtured it day and night. It was always on my mind. I cared for the bird for weeks and weeks until it got better. It started singing and flying all over his cage. I swear the the bird recognized me because it would chirp everytime I’m near. I fell in love with him.

My grandma talked to me one day and told me, it is time to set him free. I protested because I wanted to keep him forever but she said some things are not ours to keep. They are meant to be shared with the world. We had our special time with them and we just have to be grateful with the memories. One gorgeous sunny day… I set him free and watched him fly away.

I am a healthcare provider in Real Life and I have always been good at it. I’m a pretty sensitive person and I love deeply. When I fall in love, I give all my heart and soul. All my time and energy. Everything I am and everything I got. I’m very protective and very loyal as well. The problem with a big heart is that it is a huge target of getting hurt. I’ve had my share of pain and disappointment but one thing I learned is what my grandma taught me. Some things are not ours to keep. We had our special time with them and we just have to be grateful with the memories.

Several months went by and I still thought of my bird. One morning as I was walking out of the house, I hear chirping. I looked up at a tree and I saw him. I knew it was him because he had unusual coloring… so colorful. My face just lit up with a smile and my heart just beamed. We made a birdhouse by the tree and he stayed with us for a long time. 🙂

PIC TITLE: The Rise of the Scorpion King

FASHION: Finesmith Jewelry Pieces

Corset, Chest, Spine and Necklace: Wicca Inspiration Set
Arm Bracelet and Skulls: Harsch Inspiration Set
Shoulder Jewelry: Shena Inspiration Set

INFO: I first debut this outfit during the FINESMITH INSPIRATION MODEL SEARCH contest a few months ago. I usually don’t enter contests anymore but this was an exciting one because I can use FINESMITH jewelry creatively and do my own styling. There were so many contestants applying and the contest ran for three days. I knew I had to stand out because contrary to what people may believe, having a name and experience in SL can be a disadvantage because people usually expects more from you every time. If you fall short of the expectations, some people will be very critical. BUT that usually doesn’t bother me. Lord knows I’ve been bashed to the extreme before many times, I’m still here standing. My advice to anyone entering a contest is to BE YOURSELF and HAVE FUN. Enjoy the experience.

Thank you to the FINESMITH team for the experience. Thank you to Frolic Mills, Kay Fairey and BVLD agency as well for letting me show this outfit for the BOSL Fashion week during the Superheroes and The Closing Finale Shows.

“The jeweler allows me to wear the sapphire blue lake on my finger, the emerald green leaves around my neck, and take the citrine sunset with me wherever I go. Jewelry has become my daytime link to nature in an office with no windows. And if I have to work late, there’s nothing like diamond stars and a pearl full moon against an onyx night sky.” ~Astrid Alauda

Behind the Scenes:

That is Lybra Rage and Markski Glom directing the scene for the photoshoot.

As you can see, we left plenty for the imagination. ;p

This was a very fun shoot to do. Even though it is very sexy and there’s nudity, I felt very comfortable. It is also my first time shooting with Cade Nansen and BlackBarbie Bravin which are just awesome to work with. Lybra Rage is the artistic genius with the idea to make this into a Finesmith Jewelry Advertisement. I must say, it turned out AMAZING.

Thank You Lybra Rage and Yula Finesmith.

As a model both in SL & RL, I don’t have any qualms about nudity as long as it is artistic and not pornography. I confess I had modeled nude in RL for an artist sketch as well as for a photographer’s portfolio who is actually becoming huge in San Francisco. I had visited him last year and there I was in all my glory (LOL) at his art gallery. Anyway, the point is….do what makes you feel comfortable. Do it for yourself (not anyone else) and never be coerced into doing something you are not comfortable with.
