Dress-hunting


Last night I went on a serious dress-hunt. I was supposed to go out dancing, and thought it would be nice to wear something new and if possible stunning! So with a lot of help from the ladies I got a load of Landmarks, as I wanted to get something from a shop I had…

Guy Fawkes Day


Nope. I am not English, but Dutch. However, I am in the UK a lot and have some close  friends from that funny island as well, therefore I do know about Guy Fawkes Day (and I know he once fought against the Dutch with the Spanish..tsk!) On the 5th of November it’s Guy Fawkes Day,…

Nameless N00bs back online!


On Avatars United (R.I.P) I had a photo-album with over 65 pictures of N00bs, I collected over the years. Too bad, AU got closed down and I lost some old pics with a harddisk-crash. (Yeah, still have to recover what I can, but not been in the mood to open my machine again and go…

The Corn Field


“The Corn Field is a region of Mythological status where once naughty avatars were sent to think about what they had done. The Corn Field is a vast star-lit field of corn and was cut off from communication with the rest of the world. A reference to the classic Twilight Zone episode ‘It’s a good…

FC Hangout Halloween Party – 2010


Last night, or better: this morning very early, we had a huge Halloween party in the Forum Cartel Hangout. It started at 3 AM for me, so I took a nap before and after dinner to make sure to stay awake! Because of the late start, I was pretty early in the Hangout, getting dressed,…

Burn 2 – The Man 2010


Due to travel and illness I missed The Burn this year :(. However, Debbie Trilling made this awesome movie, truly amazing …Hope you enjoy it as much as I do, it’s worth the 6 minutes of your time!  

Sunday – Burn 2.0


Sadly I missed the grand opening of Burn 2.0 yesterday, but this morning I took the time to pay this wonderful festival a visit! It’s amazing, as every year. Laggy too yes, but that’s inevitable for events this size ;). I walked and flew around and saw some really impressive builds! The atmosphere of the…

Burn 2.0


I have always enjoyed the SL Burning Life events, every year in October. A Second Life  version of the RL Burning Man festival, with lots of art and music, meeting people and generally having a good time. This year Linden Lab decided to ‘outsource’  it and it’s now called Burn 2. It will open tomorrow…

Halloween is coming


Traditionally lots of sims in Second Life are decorated for Halloween, this time of year. In the Destination Guide you will find a special section “Haunted” with lots of cool and creepy places to explore. I will soon go on a second tour and take pics for another post! This evening I did some (modest)…

Yaay!


After being logged out a couple of hours ago, I gave it another try (been reading the blogs and apparently the Grid was down). Oh joy, I landed in and Adult Hub, together with fellow-clouds and grey people..hilarious! As I could not move, sit, walk or teleport I left…this is fun for 3 minutes, but…

Coffeetime in Morris


This morning, while Cait’s operator was working a bit, Cait had her coffee in Morris. It’s the welcome area where Ratt grew up (Cait grew up in Waterhead) and it’s a nice place to meet new people from all over the world. Or better, from all over the universe…hey! A Clanger!    

Conversationalists


Even after being in Second Life for more than 3 years, I still can get suprised by the lack of normal conversations some people manage to display. Really. It makes me wonder how they survive in real life, if they do. I mean…see these two conversations I recently had with 2 visitors (on one day!)…

The Forum Cartel Home Tour – 2010


This year I submitted ImperiuM Island as ‘ Open Home’ in the 2nd Annual Forum Cartel Home Tour.  This initiative, by Joshooah Lovenkraft, gives members (and all resident of SL for that matter) a chance to take a look into people’s homes and sims. Some of those homes are normally closed to public the rest…

Re-birth


I remember my first days in Second Life very well. I came to this world as the ‘girl next-door’, wearing jeans, a purple shirt and flip-flops. Oh and the dreadful brown system hair. On my arrival I met all kinds of people, on Help Island, and some girls were wearing lovely polkadot- dresses, which made…

More playing with shadows


although I know some people can be in world and feel bored..I rarely experience that! There is always something to play with or to (re) discover. This morning I was sitting at the seaside in Penghu, and amused myself with taking pictures of Fat and H, who were talking and sitting all sweet on a…

Inner peace


Because (Second) life can be intense and at times stressful, it’s good to find places where you can relax and enjoy some time alone, or with friends, and simply….be. I am not the philosophical type, nor am I known for my spirituality, but somewhere deep down in Cait is a girl that needs to get…
