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…
Jumping and Slashing
Tonight’s training was about Jumping & Slashing. Always funny to see the group practice their jumps like a bunch of hyperactive Tiggers! The lovely Ellie from the UK was curious and ‘maybe interested’ and watched the entire evening and then decided to join the ImperiuM! We have seen our group grow these last…
Try before you die: The Damned Zombie Outbreak
Most people who know me, know I do not like games involving guns and shooting. Odd, yes. As the katana I use daily is also a weapon, and technically it shoots too. Anyway, guns and Cait have never been a good combination. However! In the spirit of ‘Try Before you Die’ I teleported myself to…
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!)
Standby
‘Standby’ is the name of an installation made by the famous (if I may say so) Bryn Oh, whose work I always admire! Standby is located on the IBM sim and, as usual for Bryn, a surrealistic build. Just amazingly detailed and confusing ;). Somewhere on the floor you will find a perkament paper which…
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…
Total War
Today I installed a so-called ‘Undead War Camp’ on ImperiuM Island! It is part of a brand-new big game in Second Life: Total War. In a nutshell: it’s a grid-wide war, with players from all kind of clans and with all kinds of weapons and combat systems. Via a special HUD the weapons are compatible…
Winterfashion – DeLa
Yeah, in Second Life it does not have to be winter and cold! Unlike real life, you can walk around in bikini or summer dresses all year round.. However, I do like to dress a bit according to the real life seasons. Not always and not all the way, it would be boring! At the…
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…
Bentham Forest
Nothing better to lighten up my day than a visit to Bentham Forest. A surreal, colourful and above all enchanting place, built by Lauren Bentham. In this case, I have nothing to describe or tell…you should just go there and see for yourself, enjoy!
Virtual calories
No matter how active Cait is, she is never hungry….and never needs food to keep the energy going! Still, food in Second Life is fun. And in some cases beautiful even! I stumbled across a lovely tea-room on a nice sim, Nonino Sweets. mouth-watering cakes and donuts for display, really well made. The environment is…
Blocks, tings and curved runs…
We had a full house in training tonight! Lovely to see all the new members in their ImperiuM outfit and with their shiny new blades! Ratt had put a lot of effort in tonight’s training, mainly covering blocks and tings and curved running…may sound mysterious, and yeah…we keep it that way! After an hour of…
Walking on the Moon
Giant steps are what you take Walking on the moon I hope my legs don’t break Walking on the moon We could walk for ever Walking on the moon We could live together Walking on, walking on the moon The Police – Walking on the Moon Listening to some old songs, I used to be…
Rabbit Kiss
Katana fighting does not mean I am into to Asian culture, or dress up like a wannabee Ninja or Samurai. I always found it silly to do so, as I am (not only in RL) very Western. Of course, when you are a roleplayer, it’s a different story, but I am not. Every now and…
