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….
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…
Bandana Day 2015, remove your hair to show you care
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…
And then there was #ImmersiveDrax and #FlatDrax
Yesterday, while I was relaxing with my first glass of chilled wine of the week, I checked twitter and saw hilarious pictures of Draxtor Depres in all kinds of situations, wearing his OC Rift and being totally immersed. A meme, as it goes, fast and growing, started by Loki Eliot and soon followed by many…
Second Life, the place I visit because my friends live there…
The past week has been, in real life, very stressful – as I mentioned briefly in another blogpost. It wasn’t just the time of year and week of my Mom’s birthday (the 4th of July) which always seems to bring me in a melancholic mood this time, although that was a part of it as…
The 4th of July: Many years have passed since those summer days
‘Many years have passed since those summer days Among the fields of barley See the children run as the sun goes down Among the fields of gold You’ll remember me when the west wind moves Upon the fields of barley You can tell the sun in his jealous sky When we walked in fields of…
SL12B – so many interviews, so little time!
The past week I have attended all the interviews with the Lindens in the Dreamitarium, and enjoyed them all. Of course, there was not just the talks with the Lindens – although they were for most perhaps the main attraction, but there was more!
SL12B, The Ixtlan Stage and Patch and Dee Linden talked in the Auditorium
Last night I was really looking forward to attending the interview by Saffia Widdershin in the Auditorium, where she would talk to Patch and Dee Linden. I was on time and even had some time left to visit and explore the magnificent Ixtlan Stage on the Dazzle sim! A wonderful, magical, build with tunnels and…

The Velociraptor, a pre-petroleum person
“You’re not allowed to call them dinosaurs anymore,” said Yo-less. “It’s speciesist. You have to call them pre-petroleum persons.” ― Terry Pratchett What am I on about? A post on speciesm? Jurassic Park? Not the Momma? Don’t worry, I am fine. I just picked up the limited, commemorative celebatory special edition (etc.etc.) ‘Velociraptor’ avatar, available…
What Second Life means to me
Today Xiola Linden posted a blog and a thread, for Second Life’s 12th anniversary, including a YouTube videoclip with theme’What Second Life means to me’. A wonderful video, made by Torley, and within minutes Strawberry Singh posted hers – made by Draxtor. The idea is, to have residents make a video and share their view…
Girls Night Out: Kayaking the Calas Caladhon sims
It has been a month since our last field-trip, the Girls Night Out, when we had a blast horse riding in Calas Caladhon Park sims so yesterday night we had another adventure. Kerena, Ylva (yay!), Kahleesi, Becky and me all geared up in ‘clothes that may get wet’ as we were invited by Kerena to…
When an explorer has ‘the meh’…
Bloggers-block, having no inspiration, real-life distractions or just a simple and utter case of ‘the meh’…I think everyone who has a blog, knows all those feelings. I, too, experience it every now and then. And it is not because I cannot find places to explore, pics to take and what not…no no, I am doing…
The Cyprian Garden, come lose yourself for a while
After my last blog-post about Corruption, being an adult club, I logged in yesterday to find an invitation sent by Ellyn (mellyn.llewellyn), to come visit the The Cyprian Garden , which she has landscaped and which is owned by Dorian Meredith. When I first read the description I was, once again, a bit hesitant if…
Caity 3.0 – A follow up
Now that I have worn my mesh head for over a week – exclusively – I had have plenty of time to figure out appliers for make-up and skin and got some other colours of the hair that Lelutka released as well and thought it would be nice to show off how I look nowadays….
