Memory Lanes…


…yes I have a few Memory Lanes, like we all have. Some are now dark, muddy paths I wish to avoid, other are happy streets that make smile when I happen to wander into them. Today I had one of the happy wanderings about…I met Ratt, he has returned in SL after an absence of…

The Koto Project


I had my breakfast in Japan this morning! I visited The Koto Project, a well designed Japanese Roleplay sim, situated in the Edo Period. Although for roleplay, and they do have rules (read them, a notecard is provided upon arrival), visitors are welcome and as far as I could find in the rules there is…

It’s cold in Samurai Village


Another re-visit, to a sim I really enjoyed while in Halloween/Autumn setting and which has now turned snow white and cold for the holiday season: Samurai Village – the private home of Ginger Krokus, is still open to all to enjoy! Ginger created a lovely winter in her City and it is surely photogenic, I…

Nagare and memories of past joys


A couple of days ago I visited Nagare – Home of the Blue Lotus Clan. A clan of Samurai, using the C:si Combat System, the system I have used for years and I still have all the Katana’s in my inventory! I was amazed on how pretty this combat-sims looks..I guess times have changed regarding…

Let me entertain you


‘Hell is gone and heaven’s here There’s nothing left for you to fear Shake your arse come over here Now scream I’m a burning effigy Of everything I used to be You’re my rock of empathy, my dear So come on let me entertain you Let me entertain you’ – Robbie Williams Credits: * Top…

My Second Life in a Haiku


Well, this weeks challenge by Strawberry Singh isn’t an easy one: ‘sum up your SL in a Haiku’. Sure……..over 6 years of SL in so few words? I thought it would be impossible, so I let it rest for a bit, to come up with this one, a Haiku that (and those who know me,…

Fantasy Faire 2013 – Lotus Valley Dream


Oh my, another blogpost on the Fantasy Faire 2013, but hey..I can’t help it; so many gorgeous sims to explore and so many wonderful builds to drool over. And to think I still have not shopped there yet! Anyway! This evening I spent on Lotus Valley Dream, created and designed by Marius Inkpen (who’s art…

The future of the ImperiuM Katana


  Today I have emptied and abandoned our clanland. Again, my thanks to all members and friends of the ImperiuM for the past 3 years of fun and good times! <3 you all.

Heavy Heart


The last days of the year were…odd. We, ImperiuM, had to make a very tough decision, one that left me with a heavy heart for some days. And still. After having ‘lived’ on our own sim since November 2009, we had to decide to let it go. The monthly costs of tier, the decrease in…

Jailbird


Yeah, well…I am completely innocent, of course. Okay, maybe I have killed someone today, but on the bright side: he lives again! Prison, incl poses in Ange’s free DYI Studio Toothbrush from Laciecakes Jeans from Trés Blah Tanktop is  from *Boom* Socks by Trashy Girls in Style Rings from Mood Hair is ‘She-Loves_me-Knot’ by Shag…

Ordinary Life


Although most of the pics on my blog may give the impression I am always completely dressed up, fashionable and wandering around in exotic places..that is not quite the truth. Yeah, I do explore a lot, I try to find a cool place every other day – but most of my travels I do in…

The Ratt and The Cat


This evening I enjoyed watching some spars between Ellie and Ratt. I tried to make nice action-shots, but it is never easy to get a good one! They both moved so fast and ran out of camera view all the time or the animations make the avatar look weird! I always like the animations in…

Re-primming…


I am not sure ‘re-primming’is an actual word or verb, but it does describe what Ratt is doing at the moment on ImperiuM Island with all buildings… Since Linden Lab recently upgraded the normal primsize from 10 meter to a maximum of 64 meters, we saw this as an excellent opportunity to ‘re-prim’ the Mainhall,…

My Heart of Darkness


Ever since I got into Katana fighting, about 3 years ago, my favourite sword has been the Heart of Darkness by Archatek. I have a lot of swords, I think I almost have every C:si sword there is, but for some reason the HoD suits me best. Did you know I ALWAYS wear it? Even…

Meiji


While I will be travelling the rest of this week – and probably will not blog, although I will try to find a topic and time! – one of the most well-known C:si combat sims will close. This was announced months ago and lots of fighters have taken the last opportunities to spar there and…
