Hogwart Professor Journal post 2

 Taking over potion class I was a bit apprehensive about working so closely with the students, but it gave me a great way to monitor the progress of my niece in the school. 
    What should have been a few burnt eyebrows here and there changed when one or a few students thought it would be funny to potion the potion master with a love potion. The love potion, though artfully created and showed great potion brewing talent, it had the librarian pinned under my potion induced gazed.
     The poor man barely made it out alive.
   Before this incident he and I could barely stand each other. Now after everything we seem to have a bond much like those that see war together and make it out alive. Not that he sees these little hellions as declaring war on the teachers of Hogwarts, I see them all as potential mini assassins in school uniforms. It is nice to have a friend on the staff, even if we still don't see eye to eye about the children we teach.

Hogwart Professor Journal post 1

  After assuming the drama professor post at Hogwarts an opening for potion master opened up. I took the position but that meant having to deal with idiot children that can barely boil water let alone brew a potion.

Before Designing, Before Hogwarts...there was just SL

SL is wrapped in layers of drama and I haven't escaped those layers. Though along the way I have found many friends that I hold close to me and cling to my SL family.
Chanty my beautiful sister of my heart, has stuck with me through thick and thin. I found her in a gorean sim a very talented gorean slave, she helped and guided me as I learned the rp. When she was sold to Master Leel, she pleaded with her new master to meet me.
Leel's heart went out and kept us together making us sisters in rp in his house. He gave me my first space where I could use as a workshop and lock myself away and build. He pushed both of us to grow and become better people. He gave us time to have girl time, encouraged our sisterhood, and our girl bonding shopping trips.
Chanty walked every step with me as I paid my first rent on my first shop, she was my main model at my first fashion show. She ran interference when rp was coming straight at me while I was wrestling with a new design. Chanty pushed for more and more designs to fill my tiny shop, then my many shops. Though my life was starting to be consumed in design Chanty never left my side.
When I left the RP Chanty stayed behind with Leel but never left my im. My hope was to focus on creating. With no home, or workshop, I bunked with Jadzia using her attic as a work space. She was a kid avatar by then and this is when I willingly became her guardian.
Then Leel surprised me with the sim. Though I don't do the gorean RP anymore it doesn't change that Chanty is my sister, that Leel is the one that kept his arms tightly around us and kept us all together, and when I brought Jadzia to the sim, it made it home, for now I have my whole sl family together.
So this video is because Chanty and I dug all our pictures out of our inventory from the past and I laid them out to see if they told a story. I found in the pictures a funny story of two sisters, one man being pulled between them. Though this is not accurate to what really happened, it did make a funny story.
With Jadzia's help here is my first video.

I have been in Sl for a long time, my niece Jadzia has been in SL longer. When I first logged into SL she helped set me up.

I was a lost, ugly hair, and only freebie cast-offs in my inventory newbie. I was lost and overwhelmed in this huge world. I was offered all sorts of things in my first days and was even taken to a BDSM club, but I kept wandering and found the classes offered in secon life. The salvation to a sick perverted virtual world is the side of SL full of learning that is offered to anyone who will just take the time to show up.

Jadzia was a favorite advance building teacher at College of Second Knowledge it was obvious in the first class I showed up to her students were very devoted to her. With her guidance I was able to make my own clothes. I cast out the freebies and started to fill my closet with my own creations, by Jadzia's urging I forced myself to wear only clothes of my own making. That motivated me to create better and better clothes to keep up with my tastes.

In these first days I also wandered into a gorean sim called laomai and began to create outfits for the role play there. At this time Jadzia was experimenting with playing a kid in SL as a protest. I would find once in awhile I would find Jadzia in a short stature in pigtails, cute pinafores, and mary janes, other times I would find her adult size in sultry attire and heels. She is silly no matter her height and when I explained I was going to a gorean sim she wished me well and helped me by handing me lots of textures for clothing she had created for classes she taught or was planning on teaching. When I was ready to open my first tiny shop with my first dozen outfits, she was my first investor giving me all her meager teaching salary.

While playing and designing in the gorean sim Jadzia began to dip her toes into the role playing sim of the 'World of Hogwarts'. When she finally got the guts to dawn the kid size full time she applied to WoH. She was still teaching and now role playing, when I found out her uniform was going to be the standard plain uniform I started to create the Couture Hogwart line so she would be the best dressed from her first day.

It is then that I became her Aunt giving her some family to claim while attending Hogwarts. She has since enrolled at two other Hogwarts, Hogwarts Reborn where she is the cheer Captain of the ravenclaw cheersquad, and in Hogwarts New Beginnings where she says she is a 'freak' girl followed by rats. She keeps me up to date with all her role playing though her time has become limited because of real-life and even had to give up teaching. When she isn't off at some Hogwart's school, you can find her little self running around the sim my main store is or decorating in her room.

She runs with a camera ready at all time and makes movies that make me laugh, here is one movie she made from all the pictures of her being a cheer captain.

This is my inspiration, my heart, my little Jadzia.
