Hello~ Whoa I love your HA!! o Happy Luminaire to you too~ I'm not that exited about the future ~12 hours of downtime ;u;

What do you think of the new collection?

Thank you!! Aha I had it created and saved a while ago and was waiting for Lumi to come around so I could finally use it xD

Ahhh I forgot about the downtime oh gosh, luckily(?) I'll be working and busy for most of tomorrow so hopefully it won't seem like such a drag lol. Also hope the downtime doesn't get extended past what they've estimated ;n;

I love the new collection! That background, that lace, dress, antlers, kitty omg just everything is gorgeous u Really loving the new items they've been putting out, I adored the new Delish set and Alchemist glasses too

Same, I'm kinda sad that monthly collections weren't cheaper like they usually were on previous BFs but oh well :'o

Yeah that's true, but there was plenty of other things to spend my money on xD Seems like they won't be discounting those anymore ever though :/

Aw, thanks. Yes, we love them an awful lot. They're really good kitties, and so pretty and soft!

And man, oh man, I feel the same about the new collection... Amazing! It sucks that the collections weren't on sale, because I absolutely would have bought one or five! But instead, I bought a fancy new Christmas-y background. :) Might have to use that one tomorrow...

And the downtime is going to SUCK.. But I really need to finish editing the book, so I guess that will help keep me on task. :)

They look like wonderful kitties I can imagine how pretty and soft they are! I'm got an adorkable pupper at home but always loved kitties ^u^

Right, I'm sure they would have earned a ton more cash if collections had been on sale too... ah well lol. Ooh which bg did you get?

Aha right, we'll be forced to finish real life tasks with no subeta to distract us xD

The lights are just so pretty!

And oh dear, now I need to rant... Today I'm very crabby... We woke up to no hot water for showers... I didn't get to shower yesterday, because the hot water kept coming and going, and now today, I have somewhere I have to be in the morning, and again, no hot water. I can't go with gross hair like this, so if the hot water doesn't come back, I'll legit have to shower in cold water. :( Also, we have no heat this morning, which is going to make it even worse. And my Mysterious Melody partner from yesterday never sent me a single thing... Not even a lame cheap item. Not even a junk item from their quests or something... Plus Subeta is going down in less than two hours, which is super lame, since it'll be down all day. I know they pick the least popular part of the day for stuff like this, and there should be way fewer problems in the future with a different server system, but the least popular part of the day is MY day... It'll be down 8 am - 8 pm, and which means I probably won't see it come back online today... :( And the kitties, though I love them, were running in circles most of the night, using our bed as a racetrack. Grr...

Okay, end rant. But sigh

Edit: And one more rant!

I don't think I'll be able to enter any of the contests... I've been trying for about an hour, but everything keeps going down, so I never get more than one item on my HA before the wardrobe fails! I just spent fifteen minutes trying to load chest items...

Ooh that is a very pretty bg! Love those lights u And wow no hot water for showers is the absolute worst, I feel for you ;n; Have you considered getting dry shampoo? It's great for days like that where you don't have time to shower or the water is just too cold, but you don't want to go out with greasy hair. It's like a spray type thing that revives your hair, very convenient :D

Sorry to hear about your Mysterious Melody partner, those can definitely be a hit or miss and it sucks your first day was a miss D: I like to gather up some groups of items and participate closer to Christmas, I'm still running around trying to earn up some money and organize my items for gifting (should have taken care of this earlier but bah too busy) Hopefully your next partner will be better!

Subeta is back at at least! Though right now you might be sleeping xD

aw no precious hyper kitties omg, I feel bad for you but that just sounds so cute OuO

(yeah even though Subeta is up again things are still slow and sometimes it times out on me...might wait another day before venturing into the wardrobe again lol)

I'm super excited, because I passed all of my classes!!! :D I seriously thought I was going to fail one of them, but I aced the final and that kept me at a C. I'm still not 100% done with school as I have one more final and a few more assignments. But, I have more free time. ^^

Hi @Cresenta and ! :D

(Has anyone else joined in the last 2 weeks? I deleted group pings. :()

- It's a good thing international shipping exists. :) Bath and Body Works has awesome lotions as well, but I can't use them due to having sensitive skin. I used to use them as a young teen.

- I used to go overboard with their semi-annual sales. D: It's so easy to do because of how good the deals and products are. I ended up giving away most of my extra sprays to my sister... I used to have 10-15 bottles.

- Usually, CWs are approved. If they're rejected, the staff gives a reason why. The problem is fixed and then the item is resubmitted. Some CWs get rejected a few times before they're approved.

Bahaha, using a rotten perfume when you go to a place you want to leave ASAP is a genius idea! XD

Oh I know. The 75% off is the hardest to resist. That is all I ever use lol. I only buy the body wash now because i have so many other things

I know, right? I love the lights on that house, too, and the sky is such a pretty color...

And yeah, that day was pretty crummy... But yeah. And no, I haven't bought any dry shampoo... Since I live in Switzerland, everything is in German, so I kind of get nervous about exactly what I might be getting, and my husband (typical man) is useless. I bought body wash once, and he was positive it was lotion and not body wash. He almost had me convinced! But no, it really was body wash, but one that was meant to be a bit more moisturizing... And when I bought face lotion once, I found my brand, but I couldn't decide which bottle was the stronger lotion (which I need, because I have dreadful dry skin...) Anyway, he basically translated the two as "this one is... creamy, and this one is, well, creamy, too..." So helpful :O

But yeah... I love doing Mysterious Melody, and passing gifts under trees on different forums, and stuff. On the forums, I sometimes do wishlist items, but with MM, you have no idea what the other person likes... So, during the year, whenever I see an item that I think is pretty (mostly wearables) and that isn't too expensive, I buy up a bunch of them and throw them in my SDB. So, then, I gift a few of those to my MM for starters. :) That way, too, if they don't send me anything, I haven't sent some crazy expensive gift. Then, if they send nicer things, I try to send some nicer stuff, too, or one of my stashed items that's become more valuable.

Congrats on your classes!!! It's so nice to finish with that stuff, so you can relax for Christmas. :)

And yeah, I have to be careful with skin products, too. I have an allergy to some of them. I always have trouble with Dove stuff, and with a lot of soaps and things, and the occasional lotion will cover me in lovely little red bumps. -_- I've actually never broken out from anything from Bath and Body Works, though, so I love their stuff. :O

I must rant!

Yesterday night I went out with 10 friends for my birthday dinner and drinks (my birthday is December 15th but pretty much everywhere was booked out nearer that date so we had to go out yesterday)! The buffet we went to was tasty but a tad expensive (£20 each) and the restaurant brought me a huge cake for free (it was pretty stinking but anyway) but when the guys brought the cake over they changed the restaurant music to play happy birthday but my friends didnt even sing it to me ;--;!

then literally 5 left before we even got drinks, then 4 left after one drink :( nobody even spoke really and they all moaned and complained about everything! I felt like super unliked and as if nobody wanted to be there even though everyone acted so excited in text messages :(

Then it was just me, Achilles and my best friend but we got so tired looking for a quietish bar we only got 3 drinks each before the bar closed at 1am ;---;

I ended up at home, hugging my rabbit, hysterically crying and sober XD!

Oh well, hopefully my actual birthday will be better ❤️

awww that so sucks!

Did you get your water sorted??

Also I HATE that! Ill admit sometimes I forget about MM and have to send a quick crappy item at the end of the day but I always try to make sure to send something about 300K sP!

Don't worry about the contests! at the minute the wardrobe is beyond broken so I'll be allowing everyone to do the 4th December tomorrow also except for the advent calender as that doesnt need the wardrobe today :)!

Congratulations!!1 thats such wonderful news ❤️!!! Im sure you're beyond relieved! When is your last exam?

I'm so sorry your birthday celebration turned bad, hopefully your birthday is much much better! -hugs tight- People shouldn't be so selfish and share more.

Awwww :( hugs

Congrats! I start my finals tomorrow 😅

Aw, so sorry your birthday dinner wasn't that nice. :( I'm sure the real day will be much nicer.

And yes, I had my German book club that day, so I was gone most of the morning, and the first part of the afternoon, but by the time I came home, both the heat and the hot water were back on, so that was good. Otherwise, it would have been SUPER miserable...

I have to admit, I'm finding it a little confusing to track the contests with the time difference and all... Saturday, I really wasn't online all day, since I had a morning class in another town, then we went to a "Messe" which is where a bunch of businesses in a town set up stands, give away apples and candy, and let you sign up to try to win stuff, all in an attempt for them to get new customers... Then, we went to the blind restaurant in the evening, and didn't get home until super late. So, anyway, I didn't do any of those, and I couldn't get subeta to work much yesterday (Sunday), so I dunno. Didn't do any snowballs, sorry guys.

Are you updating new ones for today (Monday the 5th), or are we using it as a make-up today from yesterday?

Yes the time difference is confusing! subeta runs on the US time while i'm always 5 hours ahead :/!

Also with subeta being a complete and utter butt hole the contests went to hell yesterday >:(!!!!! Theyve all been updated but yesterdays advent calender has been updated with the 4th december as well :)!

Ugh, yeah, I couldn't get anything to work yesterday... It was miserable!!!

Poofs in! Hello !! Long time no speak. Hope everyone is ok.

This bloody website XD!!!!!

I hope everything gets smoothed out soon!

how are you ❤️?

Oh hello hugs So glad someone is around. Subeta bit laggy so hard to do things around here i came to do haha

Oh i been ok, just having all this health issues, this pregnancy have not been kind to me and stressing about some family members moving near by and i try my hardest to be bigger person and get on with them, but they are just so ungrateful and i m at my breaking point lol

How are you lovely? Been Xmas Markets this year yet?
