After our previous ‘Girls Night Outs’ in which we went horse-riding and kayaking, we thought it was about time we had another field trip with some action, drinks and chats! So this time we decided to go surfing, a fun sport and so easy in SL – compared to the RL version! We (Becky, Kerena,…
Summertime ramblings and Junk
For me summer always really starts after 7 August. Of course technically it starts earlier, but I can always really start to enjoy the weather once I’ve dealt with some sad anniversaries in July, and then the last being 7 August, the day my Mom passed away. Yes, that is 14 years ago, but still….
Eight
Today was my 8th rezday, and although I usually don’t celebrate with parties and such – I always find rezdays somewhat special. I am silly like that. This year I got spoiled so much, with lovely gifts from dear friends…I’ve gotten many surprises today, and am thankful for all of them! Giftcards (Ooooh, shopping-spree to…

About 5AM breakfasts, Indonesian dinners, London city and many Mojitos
When I first set foot in the unknown, to me, internet in 1994 – I soon was warned by people (on- and offline) to be extremely careful with my information when it came to real life (although we didn’t call it ‘real life’ then, I think we called it just real information), because: stalkers and…
Electrobit City – ‘You’ve died, and have been thrown from this reality! ‘
Those of you following me and my adventures on this blog know I am a terrible gamer. I just cannot play video games that require moving, shooting, running and escaping even if my real life would depend on it. I do like how it all looks though and I guess that’s my problem: I love…
Topless Sailors, cruising around the ocean
The other week my friend Pepys wanted to cheer me up a bit and said he would take me out for the evening. Well, that got me all excited of course, not being used to that often, so when he told me to be ready at 11AM ..I was! All dressed up pretty and looking…
It takes all kinds to build a community in Second Life: Basilique hits 2000 member milestone
Originally posted on Canary Beck:
InnocentlyWicked Resident, a 4-week old avatar who describes herself as: “young and I just want to have fun’, surely didn’t imagine she’d be winning Caitlin Tobias’s inventory of poses from her store Pose O’Clock, when she accepted our invitation as Basilique’s 2000th member. 2000 members might not sound like much in comparison to some in…

Every year, since 2007, the annual Hair Fair in Second Life ends with a Bandana Day. A day to remove our hair, and show support for the charity which the Hair Fair is all about: Wigs for Kids. While I have blogged the past years about the Hair Fair, this year due to all kind…
#TBT – A Goodbye to The Trace
Originally posted on Cait's World:
The Trace is, without doubt, the most featured sim on my blog. I have in the past 1, 5 year been a regular visitor of this wonderful place and was always excited when the seasons changed, as Kylie Jaxxon – the lovely owner – has such an elegant and…
Apple Island, a raw exploring trip
By accident, while browsing the Marketplace for a necklace, I hit a ‘visit this item inworld’ button and since the viewer popped up the landmark I thought I might as well go see the item inworld! The store I was browsing on MP was Imeka and once I teleported over inworld, I ended up in…
And so, I was a real model for an hour…
One of the things I have had on my wishlist in Second Life, was to have my portrait made by Skip Staheli. I’ve admired his work for ages and always enjoy his photo’s on Flickr. Sure I can do my own pics, but I just wanted one of those beautiful portraits that Skip creates. Because…
Adiós Don
My blog-post yesterday was one of few words, published while in a total shock and with hands too shakey to be able to type, just within an hour after I received Grazia’s phone-call with the news I was so afraid of to get. Don (Don.Mill), my beloved, wonderful, witty, warm, caring, smart and very brave…
Last dance
Words fail me. My heart hurts so much. Don, my best friend, is no longer with us. I will miss him so so much. Rest well, brave, wonderful friend.
“You can’t wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.”
The quote I used as subject for this post is from Jack London, not something I was so smart to come up with! But when I read it, at first I thought: oh hell yes! And then after a while, I changed my mind and decided it does not work that way for me. Maybe…
Dreamers – by Cica Ghost
Cica Ghost must be one of Second Life’s most productive artists, or so it seems to me.This morning I visited her latest art installation ‘Dreamers’ and as with all the works of this talented artist, I was delighted! Dreamers is placed in a half globe, or canopied as it is called, and is a magical…
