Though my Flickr stream may give the impression I am always clubbing or shopping, this is not quite true. Most of my inworld time I spend either helping members of the SL Blogger Support Group and exploring and enjoying new locations and art installations. The past weeks I’v been taking things easy, due to the…

‘Just take a seat, they’re always free’
Summer in Second Life is, for me usually ‘the lonely season’ and this year it seems worse than ever. It’s okay, I guess. I’ve gotten used to the sound of an incoming IM and it being from some disappointing group-chat instead of a friend, but hey hoo: my friends will return from their vacations and…

“Invictus” – by Storm Septimus
Second Life artist Storm Septimus has created an installation on LEA, called “Invictus” – based on the famous poem with the same title by William Ernest Henley; Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell…
Love is all around
No matter what happens, it is often good to be reminded of the good things in life. Like, love. Last Saturday I attended the wedding of Dee and Skip (delinda.dench and skip.staheli) and was honoured to be a guest at the romantic ceremony – Ibiza beach style, dresscode was ‘white’) and it was ever so…

Bury your fears, bury your dreams
Not quite the cheerful post title ever is it? It is the title of a new art installation at MetaLes, by Selavy Oh, so excuse me for the sombre headline!
Oh, these miss you nights….
‘Midnight diamonds stud my heaven Southward burning like the jewels that eye your place And the warm winds that embrace me Just as surely kissed your face Yeah these miss you nights they’re the longest’
The Gates of Melancholy
The past week I spent quite some time in The Gates of Melancholy, because it is a gorgeous photogenic location. I took lots of pictures there, but those did not really feature the sim – I used it as backdrop..and to make up for that rudeness I went back and took photo’s for a blogpost….
Inked
‘Inked’ is a photo exhibition by Elizabeth Nantes, in Art Gallery Dathuil. It opened last night and while I usually not particularly like photo’s on display in Second Life (I prefer to enjoy them on Flickr, where I can see them in high resolution and on a big screen) ‘Inked’ is certainly worth a visit.

The Land of Confusion
The other day I got some new hair (ORLY!) and it was ‘unisex’. No big deal, but as I was a tad bored I thought it would be fun to try this hair out on my Male. Not my alt, but my Male Caity I use when I adjust poses for men. I went to…
SL13B – The Automaton and Dutchie
