Ok, last night, i did something for the first time. (he he, you perverts, not that!) anywho, i sold a collectable. i know it sound sorta wierd (you may be asking yourself, "but she's so rich, how could she not hae ever sold a collectable?" wink ok, maybe not that. mrgreen but what i mean is that i've sold PLENTY of MCs int he past to make gold, but i havn't int he past few months or so (whenever the new marketplace came out is when i stopped) i may have written a journal on it, come to think of it. but nto only this, i sodl my butterfly mantilla.
butterfly mantilla are those really big wings and they're quite cool. it were the first item i REALLY saved for. i mean, i went from around 10k to 30k to get it. but once i got to 30k, i couldn't just SPEND it, because then i'd have nothing (reminds me of a whitney huston song, i think i'll start singing it now) so i saved soem more until it really became second nature and then i had 45k or so. i then bought the mantilla, and henceforth, my days of saving and the whole "buy and sell MCs" began. i owe my wealthiness on gaia to them.
so, anywho. i don't wear them very often anymore. they're blue-ish, and the have a strap that goes aroudn the neck that's not my favorite. i usually go with a white theme, and they just weren't fitting in. they sat in my inventory for a few months, and i'd recently been doing some investing in fausto's bottles, so i was down to around 5k after soem bad buys that i'll just have to wait to appreciate. i'd been savign till i got to around 10k when 'let it snow' a nd frostbite blad came out. i fell in cyber love at first site. i really wanted to buy them both, but i knew i'd have to wait for the price to come down.
i hasseled over it and i decided that i should look into selling one of my MCs. i looked up angelbow, which i could have very easily sold for a WONDERFUL price, btu i wear it a lot and i love it. i looked at elegant veil, but even though i don't wear it that often, i fo like it when i wear it and i knwo that it'll get me even mroe gold in the future. western zodiac, no, gift of the goddess, no, winter rose, no, spirit falcoln (i would have sold this, but i want it to appreciate more) summonign tome, gothic veil, enchanted strings, even fausto's bottle i looked to selling, but i wanted them all to appreciate in value more. then i realized. i'd FORGOTTEN to look up mantilla. that was my first sign. i looked it up, and it had about doubled in price since i'd boughten it. this was alright, nto quite as much as i'd haev hoped, though.
then i thought of the last time i wore it, and i couldn't remember. so i decided, it was time to let them go to someone who would wear them more often. btu it was still sad for me. i'd never sold soemthing i'd had for so long. i mean, i actually have a few doubles in my inventory to sell for later, but i still hadn't gotten around to doing it. but, i really don' miss them, i suppose. it's just not me, i've evolved,too.
i think it's interesting becaus ei knwo some of my friends are really a**l about what they have in their inventory and every once ina while they'll just sell eveything for a new look. but not me. mostly becuas ei lik ehow i make money through investing without having to do anything, but...
quite honestly, i dont' know why i wrote this. it's nto particularly interesting. btu i just had to say it. don't worry, i'm thinkign about putting a poem that i wrote three years ago that got me sent to the guidance counselor (they thought i might kill myself) so just wait until i can find my hardcopy.
