There have been so many events this month. I admit I have been overwhelmed, especially since it in my real life mother's birthday this week. She's been wanting to do all sorts a things, so I am sorry I have been a bit behind on my posts; real life always comes first, but don't think I have forgotten about you, my lovely readers. I haven't posted in 3 days and I feel like I have been away for a month; I've been wanting to post!

This week has been really, really busy for me. We finally got the land at the Harajuku-Lolita's Union, and it is really getting a great start for only being open for a few days. Though we only have a small homestead, a choice that was decided by a vote of our members, we're still very happy and we've had a very positive response from everyone. Many of the rentals went out in the first they opened up. I've been trying to keep up with the demand, but we have enough prims and space for everyone, thankfully enough, and I can set out more booths. The price for the booths is currently $50L a week for 15 prims. This really helps us out with the rent.
There is also an event going on that is more important and more charitable than the Lolita's Union Shelter and Meeting Place. The Fashion for Life Charity Event goes from June 7th to June 20th and 100% of all the funds raised go to the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life. Please think about taking some of your lindens there and helping out -- you'll not only get some really nice things, but you will be helping fight the fight against cancer. Even a mere one dollar can help out; even if you're poor on SL, think of at least donating two or three linden to those in need. If everyone on SL did that, that would be more than a million lindens going to this great cause.
As for the Lolita's Union, I spent a long time decorating the place. Our new home is low poly, low impact mesh, letting us not only be lag free but it also allows us to keep a lot of prims open. We've had a really strong turn out of people hanging out at the Shelter for Cute Boys & Girls as well as participating in discussions in the outside hangout areas. Today they were discussing the E3 Super Smash Brother's Tournament, which was awesome to participate in.
Thank you everyone for the support. The proceeds from the rentals and tips help us pay rent, furnish the place, and keep up with costs with search engine promotion. I'm telling you now, we are not profiting a dime from this; I even spent my $300L a week allowance towards getting a teaset for the union's tea parties. I'm so happy to do it though. We saw a need for a hangout and home for our cute lolita, harajuku, and cosplay friends, and we provided it.
If you haven't joined already, the group is called the Harajuku-Lolita's Union. We are a small group of 147 people, but we are steadily growing, and the group is active with many happy participants in the group chat and at our discussions and mini-meets. It is free for kawaii, cute, lolita, and harajuku designers to advertise in and bloggers are allowed to link to their posts once a week in notices and once a day in group chat. This helps keep our community close and keeps us updated with all the cute stuff like Dolly Loli provides to you, my beloved readers.
Thank you always for reading,
Taisynn of Dolly Loli
