@rachybabyx was a Hopeful with several beautiful sets in MR, but now she's vanished. What's up? Usually when someone quits SG the account still stays, so this is very odd... Plus her sets hadn't been up long enough to be taken down yet.

Hey, yeah it's now Ghillie! I had to change it when I became pink! :) 
witchking:
Ah, interesting @ghillie , you're pink, but you don't have set of the day yet? I suppose you're in the pink queue? Anyway, I honestly don't see what was wrong with your old name, or why this new one is any better. How did they explain it to you?

@stormyent really deserves to make it to the front page again, doesn't she? She's such an awesome person, a free spirit, a creative mind, and a dedicated Suicide Girl. Our set (Shepherd of the Forest) is now one month old and is at that critical point – with 1913 likes and 457 comments – that it could make it, with just a little

@pyromethious Likes are a big part, but it's also comments, and also personal taste of the people who choose. Definitely not an exact science.

Ah, that would explain the cat fighting I've heard of.

For the last few weeks I've been sick and feeling very lethargic. The whole allergy problem finally seems to be passing, though now there are new strange health problems coming on.

I've mostly just been watching movies. Wes Anderson has captivated me. I've also been watching various Star Trek incarnations.

I did, a week ago, have a photo shoot with an absolutely beautiful Russian girl,...

I'm now eight weeks away from coming home and ending this crazy adventure, and while that's four times as long as what most people consider an annual vacation, to me it's one-third of this experience.

When I get home, between leftover funds and my pending tax return, I'll still have enough money to keep from working for another three months, if I live *very* low

On the light side of it you could write about beautiful women! Sorry, seriously do what your heart says here and what are your passionate about. Write a list of pros and cons list of both professions. You are excellent photographer and I would assume it is a indicator of your writing too, talents there!
benjaminlongfellow:
@witchking I recommend both, please keep up with your photography, you will get more Set of the Day in the future, like all art, it takes time. Writing is hard to break into as well, harder probably as you already have a head start on photography, but don't let that stop you. Travelling opens many doors, stories will start to come to you as time passes. Everyone needs something to take their mind off something else. Not that my opinion matters, but I would like to see where photography brings you in the future, i am starting. As a poet who reads a lot, I am also interested in your novel and other writings to come.

Sigh. I go offline for a week and come back to discover one of my greatest heroes has died.

You've had a long and prosperous life, Mr. Spock, and I'll miss you dearly.

It was the same way when Michael Jackson went – I was on an isolated island (in the Aegean) – and I came back to civilization to discover he was gone. A

"Star Trek "Trilogy" (films 2, 3 and 4)"  BEST!! Love those 3!

It was a very sad day when I heard the news that Leonard Nimoy died. He's one of my childhood and youth heroes and actually one of the few who managed to stay one of my heroes until his death.

Of the 11 models I've submitted sets with so far (two SGs and eleven Hopefuls), honestly I'm most impressed with @daniirae and how active she's been on Suicide Girls (check out our set, "BASEMENT GRAFFITI").

Ever since her set went up, Daniirae has been non-stop posting to the site. A constant onslaught of new photos, status updates and general musings about life. And

My second set with @felynx – Tea for Two – has made it to the Set of the Day. We knew it was coming, but I still gotta say THANK YOU to everyone for helping to make this happen. Note the above photo isn't from the set, it's just anotherone of my favourite photos of her. Also check out our first set: Mangrove Forest.

I do more than lay on beaches and take photos of beautiful women ;) I also admire all the other great work this site has to offer.

While I was away, in isolation on my tropical island, a lot of beautiful sets went live. Here's my three favourite Hopeful sets of the last 50 to be published:

@electriceye22 Spammed it? How so? Despite that, I'd rather not lose sight of the beauty and art of it.

@witchking She started a thread about it at least 7 different groups that I saw.  Probably a few more that Im not in.

I seem to have had a bad allergic reaction. A few days ago I tried biting into a raw cashew fruit, to see if it tasted like the nuts, but apparently the skin of the fruit has a mild poison. Now my face has swelled up, especially my lips, nose and around my eyes. And I've got a terrible rash on my neck and arms.

Shitty deal Boss. Thanks for posting up a pic though. I'll know what to stay away from.

Back in November/December, I spent about six weeks on a little tropical island off the coast of Thailand. There was no internet. No phones. Limited electricity. A bungalow, a hammock and the ocean.

It was true bliss getting to disconnect from the world. I watched the sunset every night.

Tomorrow I'm going to return there for another 15 days, so until I return, you won't

I can't get over how stunning some of the scenery is here!

Yesterday I caught a train through the deep south from Nakhon Si Thammarat to Surat Thani and today I'm taking a bus west to Ranong. More photos soon!

I just re-watched Star Wars Episode III (as much of it as I could stand) and then followed it up with Episode IV, and I gotta say... is it just me, or was the old Star Wars better?

Of course we know the story was better (that's why they made the middle episodes first), but I mean from a special effects perspective. It just seems

That's right, although I'm a bit worried and skeptical about J.J. Abrams as a director, because....well, J.J. Abrams...
unknownmisery:
A lot of the magic of the original trilogy was how it managed to tap into mythological themes in an almost unconscious, primordial way. The new trilogy went about it in such a heavy handed way.
