This is my first time doing the Big Bad Blogger Challenge(BBBC), for one week I will answer questions posted from
Alicia Chenaux's blog Ch'Know. Please take the time to sign up if you're a blogger, this seems like it's going to be oodles of fun.
So I've been sitting here in my little blogger corner of SL and thinking about these questions, "Why did I become a Second Life Blogger? How has it enriched your life?"
To answer that question I took a trip back down memory lane and read my first posts from March 2007. They weren't great posts, but explored my Life in SL as a journal. I kinda miss that approach I had to SL. Everyday was an adventure, my feelings or thoughts were not censored and I spoke from the heart. Looking back, I guess I can say I wanted to share my SL with others. I didn't blog about fashion, I had no clue what a fashion blogger was. Over time I branched out.. reading and learning from other bloggers. With high admiration for their work, I took the plunge into the fashion world. I'd really like to find a happy medium of both a journal and fashion blog, but worry that since I've recently placed myself in a "fashion" category it would be hard to change.
My SL and RL have become so closely intertwined over the last three and a half years that my posts often shared what I was dealing with in my RL. Having this blog really helped me when faced with difficult moments such as my grandmother's fight with cancer. Blogging became an outlet for me to share my feelings and to help process the emotional conflicts. Aside from all the emotional aspects of what blogging has done for me. It has also helped to improve upon my photo shopping skills. I used to post snapshots directly from SL, then moved to slight editing in GIMP, Elements, CS and CS4 and now CS5.
Sometimes, I'm in a little bit of a shock when seeing how much growth and an impact blogging has had upon life. Blogging has become a form of expression, a way to relax and improve upon my skills. I'm not an expert, I still hope to learn from my fellow bloggers. I'll always be, "A Jack of all trades and a master of none."

Whenever I look back
On the best days of my life
I think I saw them all on T.V.
I am so homesick now for
Someone that I never knew
I am so homesick now for
Someplace I will never be
Time won't let me go
Time won't let me go
If I could do it all again
I'd go back and change everything
But time won't let me go-Time won't let me go-The Bravery
