Being an ESL’er in Second Life
Yes, I am an ESL’ er (English as Second Language) and I love language! My first language is Dutch, then comes English…then a gap….French…a bigger gap and then German. In Second Life I only speak English, which makes sense as I rarely meet Dutch people (don’t ask me why, but for some reason I just…
A Night at the Museum
Ah no, this post is not about the movie with Ben Stiller, although the place I visited did remind me a bit of it! I went to the Museum of Natural History – Vienna, where they now have an exhibition of Dinosaurs. On arrival you will see, after you’ve rezzed, a HUGE skeleton of a…
An Imperial Picnic
Sometimes, with all my travels through Second Life, I almost forget what a lovely sim ImperiuM Island is! I go to all kinds of places and enjoy the rest of world a lot, but every now and then it is just perfect to sit down on our own sim, chat the night away with friends…
Wacky Wiki
Even Second Life related work can be difficult at times, not meaning in world (that’s mostly just fun and a blast). No, this time I have been busy all evening, trying to create a page in the Second Life Wiki! I admit I have never worked or tried doing anything in any Wiki, so I…
Ultra Violence
Ultra Violence, that is what Ratt calls an evening of total mayhem: fighting with a couple of people for hours and hours and not stopping…when you die, you simply get up and start again..and again. Well that is basically what we (Ratt, George, Karelia and I) did all evening! And it felt good ! W0000t!…
And a Jazzy ending..
.. of the weekend :)
Art Maze 2011
As my Sunday was typical: lazy, nothing special to do, coffee, peanutbutter-sandwiches and raining all day… I travelled to the Zindra Continent (Adult) to visit the Art Maze 2011 on Distrel. A colorful (lots of pink, yay!) art-exhibition, build as a maze. You can pick up some free shirts and coffee mugs, of course I…
The Eros Project
Saturday-night, no plans, nothing on tv…and bored. So. I went to visit The Eros Project – “The Showcase for Teen Talent”, and as the place profile says: ‘Born from the hard work and effort of over three dozen content creators, the Eros sim is the best representation of what once was the Teen Grid.’ Yes….
Teengrid merged with Maingrid
Last night Terrence Linden announced in his blog, they were busy transferring the teens and their lands to the Maingrid. A while ago I sent out the official statement of The ImperiuM Katana on teens in Second Life and them being welcome in our Dojo, as we are one of the few C:si Clans that…
Online Social Media – how scary!
Since the introduction, or even before, of the web-based profiles in Second Life which include buttons to connect your Second Life to your Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn account, lots of discussions are going on on the many SL fora I read. Although I can be considered a ‘heavy user’ of all those online social media…
A visit to Ishida Clan
Last night, after I finally got a bit more energy and felt my weekend sinking in…I went for a visit to Omi no Kuni, the home of the Ishida Clan. The sim is a bit empty at the moment. Well a bit. It’s empty. But the Ishida Samurai were having some nice fights anyway. Apparently…
Bladerunner City
Travelling across the grid…this time I ended up in an Art Colony called : Bladerunner City. A huge art installation, with many amazing builds and in a lovely sci-fi setting. Not the Bladerunner one would expect from the movies, but worth a visit and please take the time to explore! I like the atmosphere and…
Well Crap – 2
Am back in Holland after some very busy days in the United Kingdom. When I returned last night, with a delayed flight, meh, I just did not have the energy to login and see what I missed in Second Life. Today another long and tedious day in the office, hence no access to SL. And…
Brighten up!
Somewhere there’s someone who dreams of your smile, and finds in your presence that life is worth while. So when you are lonely, remember it’s true Somebody somewhere is thinking of you.. Or what also works, well it does for me, go visit a colorful epic place in Second Life to brighten up the day…
Things to do in a hotelroom
So, I am travelling for work again, to the always friendly and not so sunny United Kingdom! Second Life on my Macbook is possible, for chats only…I cannot fight on that keyboard, besides that the maccie gets too hot when fighting anyway. So I usually spend my evenings in the hotel surfing the web a…
