Yeah, it’s true. Honest. I was minding my own business (read: doing nothing) and then….out of the blue: I got an IM, was asked out for a dance and had a lovely Sunday-night :).

Les Miserables
“We do not claim that the portrait we present here is a true one, only that it comes close“ Once upon a time, when I was young and innocent *cough*, I wanted to become a teacher and studied French (and English). I always loved reading books, still do, and for my study I had to…
Déja Vu – in reverse
This afternoon, when driving home from work, I was listening to the radio (and singing out loud) to the so-called : top 900 of the 90’s. Not very exiting, I admit. One particular song stayed in my head and when I was home I looked up the official video-clip on YouTube to refresh my memory….
Back to 2007
So I spent some time in Waterhead, as it was (again) a quiet day with not much going on (other than that in RL I went for a long walk in the snow and fed the poor ducks in the river my old bread). Then, suddenly I thought I was back in 2007. The good…
Syzygy’s Ice Beach
In the spirit of winter I visited Syzygy (what’s in a name?), a 5 sim region completely turned into a Winter Wonderland, but then….different than so many I have seen the past weeks! Of course there is snow and frozen lakes & waterfalls, but the decoration is less ‘Christmassy’ and does not feel so overdone…
Bogart’s Jazz Club – Amleth McCallen
It was a slow evening in ImperiuM, I suppose everybody is busy in RL getting ready for the coming Christmas-weekend! So, since there was no one to fight with, I went looking for some entertainment and hopped over to Bogart’s Jazz Club. In a nice dress, of course (as they have a dress code). I…
Winterfest: Cross Country Skiing
Snow…although I had have a bit of enough of it in RL, I felt like a nice winteractivity in Second Life tonight! So I teleported to the 8 Winterfest sims and looked around for something I wanted to do. You can do all sort of things, the choice is huge! Sleighriding, skating, horse riding and…..Cross…
Me and my Dragon
This afternoon Pep gave me a Dragon! It’s name is : Little Purple Dragon (can’t change the name), it follows me around and even talks to me. Which is quite nice when I am alone and can use some company. Even though it’s a bit of an ugly Dragon, I already love him. Or her….
Steelhead Steampunk
If you are into 19th century Steampunk…..The Steelhead sims (seven!) are the place to go! Amazing builds, great atmosphere and you can fly around in all privacy (well..I was all alone there, but maybe my timing was wrong?). It’s a great place to explore and take some nice pictures! I tried to read my future…
Isaac Newton’s Cannon to Orbit
Not sure how seriously scientific this place is, but it sure is fun: The Exploratorium! It’s a globe with a canon installation on top…you can sit on the cannonball and orbit yourself around the world, in a speed of your choice (menu pops up)! I shot myself into orbit a couple of times, but I…
Pip’s Amazing Airship
This afternoon I was honoured to be invited in Pip’s private home! This lovely lady has a steam punk Airship, something I have never seen before! At first I was overwhelmed by the colours and all the shiny object, but what a wonderful and happy place it is!It’s very complete and I found it an…
Mysterious Waves
Into art and installations? Then Mysterious Waves is the place to visit! Nice mellow music on stream and best: a lovely, mysterious clouded sky. May take a while to rez once you land there, but the effect is amazing! On small islands you will find art-works, some with (meditation) sitposes and others to just watch…
Man vs Secondlife part 1 & 2
Instead of watching survival documentaries on Discovery Channel (my usual way to wake up on Sunday morning, with coffee in bed!), I watched these two episodes of Man vs Second Life, hilarious! (note: you may want to watch them on Youtube, the embedded versions in this blog are a bit blurry!)
Lazy Saturday
The weekends are always kind of quiet in ImperiuM, giving me some time to explore and catch up chatting with friends who are not into katana–fighting. This afternoon, while chatting in IM, I amused myself in the Garden of Dreams. One of my favourite places in Second Life. I simply love the fields with high…
Mysterious Pteron
On one of my travels, I discovered a mysterious place called Pteron. A blue/green city with many chambers and plateaus. I enjoyed exploring this mystic build, while listening to their stream playing relaxing (almost out of this world) music…I had my settings on midnight and was amazed.. There are some danceballs for couples and some…
Sharp blades & and a Lunar Adventure..
Last night was long but good! Went to bed waaaayyyy past my bedtime, but I was having so much fun online….it was impossible to log off! It was lovely to see some new members in our dojo, all eager to practice and doingtheir best to improve the new learned skills! Made me remember how hard…
