OK, that's me all caught up copying my previous posts over to my new home. Where was I? Oh yes, Secondfest.
Secondfest was pretty good. Lots of newbies checking the place out for the first time, which I kind of liked because it made me realise how far I
have come over the past weeks. This was the first time I didn't feel like a newbie anymore. Still a novice, but not a newbie. Like in the Hot Chip set with everyone waving their glowies and poofers around, it wasn't so very different from InPulz, except that the music was better and there was a DJ up on stage.
I think the highlight for me (other than getting L$250 to complete a survey!) was catching New Young Pony Club's set.
I can give you what you want...
That's me, at the front with the pink hair
Most of the audience clustered in the middle. Maybe nu-ravers just fear mosh pits?

Let’s see, what have I been up to? Well, I completed my Free Hair Odyssey with the treasure hunt on Taunt island, successfully locating all the tikis:
I also found two golden orbs at Nuclear Boutique’s party, and thanks to a tipoff from Teagan joined the Bewitched update group, so the Free Hair Odyssey continues!
In other news, I learned how to resize and recolour prims. Now, I am a lazy girl, so this is enough to keep me happy for a while. Pretty much the only content I ever made for Sims 2 was recolours. I dyed one of my dresses pink and trotted off to a sock hop at Solaris. Observe my Amazing Static Ponytail:
Oh, and I caught the tail-end of a live music festival, which was pretty good. This woman was playing an acoustic set with some of my favourite songs:
SecondFest kicks off tomorrow so I am looking forward to that, assuming I can get onto the sim 
PayPal payments are working again so I was finally able to buy some L$$$ and can take some time off from the dancepads

While the grid’s down, I’ll catch up on my posting 
I had a better day yesterday. I found an indie dance party under the Live Music tab and they were playing the music I’m into. They also had some pretty potent beer:
And after that, I went to Gurl 6 to make my final decision about what to get with my free hair voucher. It was so hard! There are just too many gorgeous hairs there. In the end, though, I decided a curly updo would be both glamorous enough for clubland and romantic enough for the ballrooms. Vain was there when I logged in today. Thanks Six!
I also picked up a discount hair for L$15, bargain!
I squeezed in an hour before the grid went down, and went to Barcelona. I visited the real-life Barcelona this spring and recognised Placa Reial immediately, though obviously their version of Las Ramblas is a lot quieter than the real thing!
After that, I went on a quick guided tour of Svarga, but I’ll leave writing about that until I’ve had time to poke around there a little more.
