Sayrah Parx, Gwynevery Golightly, and I have been discussing reformulating how the SLCS Rank Controller distributes points. More points for this sort of activity, less points for that sort, and so on. It’s a bit like trying to reform the tax code! One issue we’ve discussed is time to Level Up.
SLCS’s own Lia Duffield-Warblood (opheliaautumn) & Rena Kadoya (syrena.macpherson) brought Battle Championship Wrestling’s supercard “Starfest” event to Srooc Skytower Memorial Stadium today. There were some amazing matches and Rena vs Lia was the main event!
4th & final week of training for Plague & Jenna. Driving & Panels. They both rocked their panels. Ealewn even gave them each an award for awesome participation!
We had practice at Cheerport tonight. As we were practicing I noticed that Dancerina Starlight has the best hair! Dancerina wears OG Flexi Hair. I used to love flexi hair! The way it moves when you move. Responds to the breeze in the stadium. Flexi hair is alive!
I was in the SLCS February 2011 Trainee class. Now, 12 years later, I thought I’d check in see what training looks like these days.
Mallory & Jack Carter celebrated their 1st wedding anniversary with a re-wedding ceremony in Marysville. JennyAnne and I attended.
On 2 February 2023 we performed a 27-cheerleader pyramid. No one present could recall ever having done one that big before. Or if it was even possible with the Cheermaster HUD!?
Corrie, Amber, Luna, Kylie, and I went shopping for $hoes!!! Of course, with Dancer Luna + DJ Amber, the trip had to have an impromptu dance segment!
I’d like to respectfully offer 5 training suggestions to the SLCS Training Staff. Each of these is a small thing, but I believe they also carry big implications. I worry that our training may over-emphasize the technical aspects of being an SLCS cheerleader at the expense of of the personal, emotional, sororal, and spiritual aspects of being a part of SLCS.
It’s SLCS’ 15th anniversary year. After practice each week Sayrah presents Cheerleader service awards… 1 year… 3 years… 6 years… and so on. This week she presented a 15-year award to SLCS Founder Christi Charron.
I met Kiki at SLCS practice. After practice we went over to Truth Hair Salon to play with hair styles & colors and drink a little too much of Maddy’s hot & yummy glühwein.
Cheerleading legend Srooc Skytower passed away on 6 March 2014. SLCS named its stadium after her and built a Memorial Garden to remember Srooc and other SLCS Cheerleaders & Friends who have passed.
JennyAnne and I went to a fun tree lighting party at Marysville. Live singer, big tree, all that was missing was some warm nog!
Shawna Trang organized, and Lumyai catered, a bountiful Thanksgiving Dinner for all of us tonight.
I met Obic Malaprop at Coven. We danced and talked and shared our favorite clothing shops. Shopping trip to come, I hope!
My Cheer Sister Lia Duffield-Warblood had a tag-team wrestling match at Fusion Pro Wrestling today. I went down to cheer her on. I met Bee, co-founder of FPW and learned a little of the feds history.
Last Friday we had tryouts for Roadkill Roller Derby. Tonight we had our 1st set of races.
SLCS GNO (Girl’s Night Out!) First stop, the amazing SL “Haunted Mansion” of Disneyland fame. Lily Brontë Grey (xxvampireluciaxx) and I got to ride in an SL “Doom Buggy!”
What does a Cheerleading, Roller Derby hip-checking avatar do on Sunday? Read stories to animesh babies, of course!
Roadkill Roller Derby had tryouts tonight! Laced up my skates, put on a helmet, and gave it a shot. Got 4th fastest 10-lap time!
Abbie dropped by “Aero’s Happy Place” in the Manitoba region of Second Life.
When a panel votes on a trainee, we are making a choice about one specific trainee. It might be less obvious, but with each trainee who Panels, we are also defining who we are. Panels are a test of what SLCS is. Of who we aspire to be.
After Thursday night SLCS practice Amber Hazel Woods (BongzieHaze) and I headed over to a club she hosts at to listen to her favorite Blues DJ. And do some dancing in the street in Maddy’s SLCS 15th Anniversary uniforms.
At my first trip to Nuit in ages, I met Honey & Finn Mercury. Gorgeous and friendly avatars made even more spectacular in the magical lighting that is Nuit!
