The Water Horse – by Toxic Menges


Via one of the forums of Second Life, I found this impressive machinima made by Toxic Menges. The horse in the movie is not an attachment or pet, but an avatar. I enjoyed watching this machinima, for its ambiance, music, the scenery and how smooth the horse moves….just lovely! (it’s best to watch it in…

The armed N00bs are coming!


When I logged in briefly this morning in ImperiuM , I saw a little green dot on the minimap. I hopped over (yay, I love double-click to teleport!) to go say ‘hello’ to the visitor! I am not sure if it was a ‘he’ or a ‘she’, the name did not tell it either, but…

Come fly with me…


Fever got me and it’s bad. A flu without having a cold. I am miserable and not in the mood for fighting. Or te be in world a lot. Anyway! To cheer myself up I transformed into an Elf. A pink one, of course! I kind of liked running around as the Christmas Elf the…

1000 Avatars – by Gracie Kendal


When browsing the Destination Guide (well, actually I was checking if the ImperiuM is still in there and yeah, we are) I found an interesting art project : 1000 Avatars, a project by Gracie Kendal. Gracie Kendal is an avatar, and in RL she is an artist (Kristine Schomaker). Read all about her on her…

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…

Freebie-fashionista


Okay. First of all: I do not do hunts for free gifts and I do not shop around for freebies. In fact, I think I don’t have any freebie stuff on my avatar…Call me a snob, but I just can’t be bothered to spend hours looking for free things. Now, having said that, I do…

Wasabi Pills – Fantasy hair


After some spars with Ratt, followed by a nice training session with Dreadfal (yay, he is on his way to the jumpslash!),  I made myself another coffee and went to Wasabi Pills. This is a hairshop, what else is new on my Saturday mornings, where you can try out demo-hair for free. Now, this is…

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!)

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…

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…

Me and my alt


Yeah, I have an alt. Her name is ImperiuM Katana, hehe! As she is not online often, not many people know her. To be honest, I only created her when I saw a newb running around with the last name Katana, and thought it would be cool to ‘save’ our clan name for an avatar!…

Ink


Inspired by a thread on the GD forum of Secondlife.com, I went through my collection of tattoos this morning. I am  always covered with pen (as Ratt calls it) and I have  quite a collection in my inventory! My favourite tattoos are all from the Garden of Ku. I love their work, even the coloured…

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!    

The case of the missing skin


This morning I tp’d to H to say hi & good morning, only to find him half present. As in…his hair was there, and his clothes and teeth..but his skin was gone! H himself had no clue, he saw his normal avatar, so we thought it was only me. However after the famous edit appearance, things…
