(Thanks Grace, for letting me know about this super cool sim ;))



Testing - one, two, three...

Am I on? Am I on?



This is Natalia. Today, Im checking out apartments in Japan to see what they're like :)



Well, it looks like theres some construction at this particular apartment. There's certainly a lot of red paint all over the place!



Hmm...what's with all the computers flying around?

Is that the new version of Windows?



Ooo...check out the shiny floor! Bet they had to really polish that prim to make it reflect ;P



Wow, that's a lot of stairs!

Imagine lugging groceries all the way up here! :P



Hey! Who pushed the "Play" button?

REC is a new sim that promotes a new scary Japanese movie, called..."REC" :) Heres their website: http://www.recmovie.jp.

When you arrive at REC, be sure to Wear the camera HUD (Touch the videocamera on the floor). It makes you feel like you are totally in a movie :)

You definitely have to check out this cool new sim. Click on Map, and enter "rec" in the Search box. The SLURL is REC (128,128,0).



Who says I get moody? I dont get moody. I dont! I dont!

Day 603: Garden of NPIRL Delights

Welcome to the Garden of NPIRL Delights Build Festival, the largest event of its kind in SL, put together by the Not Possible IRL group and the Rezzable.

If you like to see amazing builds, this is the place! The Garden contains works from 110 SL builders :)

(Thanks RightAsRain for the LM and K for letting me know it's opened!)



First things first - grab a HUD!

The Garden spans 4 sims! Thankfully, the HUD will take you from exihibit to exhibit. And you can stop and come back at any time ;)



Or start with a flying tour above the 4 sims...



Most of the exhibits are interactive, so you can touch, hear, sit, or play with them :)

And many of these were created by famous SL builders, like this Grotto of Lost Souls by Jopsy Pendragon, who runs the Particle Laboratory.



For the steampunk fans, theres the enormous Tower of Industrial Judgement by Eladrienne Laval & Kheph777 Enoch.



There are even a few "secret" builds, like CS Montgolfier's Hudded Masses.

So look around :)



Some of these displays are truly amazing. Wizard Gynoid built M.C. Escher's "Stars" for real in SL :)



Seifert Surface, who runs the Crooked 4D House, created this sculpture called The Sky is Falling with 1500 prims arranged by script...



Some builds are funny, like Charlot Dickins' Walk Through the Slippery Slide. OK, it wasnt that funny ;P



Some are really cool puzzles, like Tezcatlipoca Bisiani's Seek the Center (no flying :P).

All you have to do is walk to the center of the maze (where you see the flame). Of course, its not as easy as it looks ;P



There are freebies and treasures to collect too...like these magic bottles from Aloah Oh's Juggling Parrots, Erupting Volcanos, and a bottle of SL seawater.



Or free a bird or mushroom avatar from Yoa Ogee's Happy Humans! Bird House.

(Guess you had to be there :P)



Or just come to see the pretty builds, like Strawberry Holiday's Fields of Green with odd looking trees.

And this is just a few of the exhibits! You can spend an entire day just going through them all :)

The Garden is scheduled to end on June 27, 2008...so hurry before it all disappears! :(

To get started, click on Map, and enter "the dump rezzable". The SLURL is The Dump Rezzable (21,59,61).



Oh no! Aloah Oh is pumping out all the SL seawater with this diabolical machine...better warn the other mermaids!

Day 596: Bay City

Welcome to Bay City, the new group of Mainland sims in Second Life :)

Its been all over the Linden blogs, so I thought I'd go check them out!



Bay City is a themed set of sims run by the Lindens, set in the 1930 to 1960's.

At the moment, Bay City has only roads and a few Linden-built attractions. They will be selling the land for residents to build on very soon.



But there are already a bunch of interesting places to visit.

At the moment, the popular hangout (where all the green dots are) seem to be Cafe Deco...



Gorgeous beaches for lying around...



Theres a bowling alley...



And even a huge movie theater...



Playing movies about bunches of guys in blue jumpsuits...

Hey, didnt I see this over at the International Spaceflight Museum?



Be sure and check out Molexandria, the archeological site where they unearthed ancient prims...



Can you find your way thru the Labyrinth before you get dizzy? Fabulous prizes await the daring few ;P



They even have a whole harbor area, where they import prims from overseas :P



And there are train and water trollies, perfect for tours around the city...

To come to the Bay City sims, click on Map, and enter "bay city" in the Search box ("Bay City - Molesworth" is a good starting sim). The SLURL for Club Deco is Bay City - Molesworth (73,154,25).



Oh no...the Linden Moles are nekos!

Eeek! Better warn the other mermaids ;P

Day 592: Sirena NEW Scripted Hairstyle (Alicia)

You know I've got a thing for Hawaiian Hair Flowers, so I finally made a scripted one that works :)



Alicia is a scripted Hawaiian hair style with traditional Hawaiian Hair Flowers that work! The Hair Flower sweeps your hair back when you wear it.

In Hawaii, the Hair Flower shows your availability, much like a ring. If worn on the right side, it means you are available. If worn on the left (closer to the heart), it means you are taken. Its a totally romantic hairstyle ;)

You can optionally allow other people to remove the Hair Flower and let your hair down.

You can also use voice commands to let your hair down or sweep your hair up.

The Tunnel of Light shows off the new Windlight Glow feature (OK, it was there before, but its now official :P).

Set your SL program to Midnight, and Touch the paper sailboat in the lake to get started...



And click for your own teacup to ride in. You can either go as a couple, alone or as friends.

But see all the pink hearts? Heehee, its a romantic place ;)



Jump in, and off you go...together in the teacup for 6 minutes with your friend :P



The teacup takes you through some amazing scenery, all with amazing Glow effects :)



Afterwards, you can stop by the store for some glow-in-the-dark thingies, like lava lamps and some really cool wings! :)



And if you like Glow, check out the Haze club, where you can party with fellow Glow enthusiast :P

Theres an event listing in the DJ booth.
