--I am a very happy person; I try to watch things in a positive way.
I love my family!
I have a few friends but I know they are loyal and good and lovely.
I love seeing rainbows; the sun shining; people laughing; my friends.
I like walking in the rain;
listening the sound of the snow as it falls on the ground; listening birds singing;
taking walks in summer afternoons with my friends.
-- I hate things like smoking and drugs.
I believe that anyone who does these things
tries to live in a lie, just to have popular friends, or to get away from real life.
I am sorry but there are so many ways to get away from every day life. Smoking and drugs is
NOT the only way.


Hobbies- Things I usually do:

Dolling, Photography, Surfing the Internet, Drawing,
Talking with friends, Reading books, Listening to music, Watching TV and movies, Writing,
Laughing all the time, Visiting Fairytopia
Eating things my mum cooks! She is excellent in cooking!
About my dolling career I learned about dolling by luck. I had been in a site that gives you the opportunity
to dress up paper dolls. A day, I lost the link and I tried to find it again through Google.
I found it.
But I also came across some dolling sites, so I learned about dolling. I started saving bases, tutorials,
and learning about things and then July 15 I installed Adobe Photoshop 7.0 in my PC.
The next morning, July 16, 2007, I started dolling. I still use this program and I am a tool shader
(haven't you noticed, huh?).



About the site

I started Destiny Island Dolls on 10 of March. I was hosted at Freewebs, which later becam Webs.
At the beggining, for about a month I used Freewebs' premade templates, which sucked!
So I decided to make my own layouts. My very first showed a lady in a dark
green&red background.
I never used it! Then I tried to learn HTML so I could code it.
I read so many tutorials and codes that in the end I didn't learn a thing. So I visited
Ave Marie's shop at Fairytopia and I got her to code my first layout.
It showed two girls in a light blue background with a sun.
It stayed on use for about a month, the month of my school exams.
In that month I didn't update but I was happy for my layout.
I find great help when making my layouts at Xena's site, where she has many tuts on coding. I also always ask for help at Fairytopia. In late 2008 lovely Rain offered to host me when Freewebs got all wonky. I renamed the site The Easel and it stayd on use for some months. Then my computer got a virus that got into my site's coding,so after a lot tries to fix it, I asked Rain to take it down in April. In late June, after fixing my pc I got the site up again with a new name, and Red Bedroom Dolls was born!

Now, about the name I have not much to say! The Easel didn't appeal to me anymore. The day before I recieve Rain's positive answer for the new site's hosting I was watching One Tree Hill's episode 6.24 and at some point I finally saw that Peyton's label was called 'Red Bedroom Records'. BAM! Instant inspiration. I loved it to death, so I finally got a name for my site I adored!
