Figure Ice Skating Star

Figure Skating Star 1

I think that one of the few things we all agree about Second Life is the chance to be or do things you would never be able to do in your Real Life. I am pretty sure I am a Ice Skating superstar in a parallel universe, but I've only had the chance to step on an ice rink 4 times in my whole life, and of course it was one of the most amazing experiences in my  life.

I would love to live in one of these countries with snowy winters and open to public Ice rinks, so I could practice all day long doing all kinds of spins, turns and spirals until my nose tip was frozen and my cheeks would hurt and look red as a reindeer nose.


Figure Skating Star 2

But I am not complaining, I went to the beach two days ago, I am sure many of you are already tired of the cold weather and would love to be at my island at the moment and I am lucky to have SL for all my ice skating endeavours. As a plus, here my bottom doesn't hurt at the end of the day because of all the times I failed miserably trying to do that stupid back flip. Oh The wonders of Second Life!!

My Polar Getaway

My Polar Getaway - Polaroid

Living in the Canary Islands the only way to have "White Christmas" for me is to ride my car to the top of our volcano and hope for snow to fall that day. That is the reason I enjoy so much all of SL's snowy sims, all your snowy pictures and all of the wintery decor available. From fireplaces, which are pretty stupid to have where I live, to snowy tress outside, every teleport is an adventure for me at this time of the year.

My polar getaway - Interior

But thanks to "The Arcade" and specially to Winter Thorn from What Next, I have my very own Tropical Polar Getaway this year, where I can finally feel cold, wear cozy clothes and feed the penguins. Penguins???? Did I say penguins? omg omg omg *screams around excited*.

Penguins are my second favorite animal right after cats, I think this is the reason I chose to have lovebirds at home too. When I was I child I always told my mother they were penguins that finally learned to fly, and you may laugh at the naive 9yo Giela but if you ever see how my lovebirds walk and play with me, you will relate to her.

My polar getaway - Penguins

Well, Aime Takaaki from *MishMish*  made my wish come true this year, I finally have my very own Penguin family. Well, to be honest I must say they are not really mine; they just hang out at my place because I feed them every day, I buy them toys and I even allow them to enter my igloo from time to time. In exchange they help me with Xmas decorations, since you already know I am terrible at this, and I must tell you, if you have never slept with the penguins, this is something you must do at least once in your SecondLife.

KittyCats Advent Calendar GIFT from Nailed It!!!

I am proud to aprticipate in this year's KittyCtas Advent Calendar !! Are you wondering how it works? You only need to go to KittyCats main Store or the new themed KittyCats Winter Wonderland sims and click on the calendar to get your gift.

Best thing is they'll stay during the whole December month, so if you are late you can still grab many of the amazing gifts designers from all over the grid have provided for the KittyCats community.

Nailed It - KittyCats GIFT

I wanted to make a set of nails with kitties in them but then I realized the great success my previous animal fur set had on the customers and decided to make a special KittyCats Fur set so you can match your nail color with your favourite KittyCat.

Nailed it Vendor - KittyCats Fur Set

At some point I thought that since this is an Advent Calendar I should've made a Christmas themed nail set instead and started working on it. When they both were finished I couldn't just decide which one to choose as gift for the KittyCats community and opted for adding both :)

Nailed it Vendor - KittyCats Advent Set


I would like to thank all the KittyCats staff and particularly my friend Callie Cline for allowing me to be part of this amazing event. I truly think the KittyCats community is absolutely amazing and I love their group chat, so this is my gift in return for everything you all make to make my Second Life better.

Hope you like it !!
