16 Years in Kowloon

Leave a reply

If you’ve never been to Kowloon, you’re missing out on an amazing adventure of a build. It’s celebrating 16 years as a community and I highly recommend it. I come here and wander the alleys, the stairs that sometimes go somewhere awful and sometimes go nowhere. I grab a bite to eat and maybe pick up a black market item or two if it suits me.

Sometimes the blogger in me is just here for the gorgeous vignettes that seem to perfectly suited to photos.

The real world Kowloon is not such a great story.

Much like it’s real life inspiration, it is a place for outlaws and those who would not conform. You can read about it here . It no longer exists, but we can visit this homage on the Grid. This Second Life build is celebrating 16 years!

If you’re a regular, you will know where to find a great spot with lots of amazing local cuisine to enjoy in privacy, away for the squalor of the streets below. It’s probably not even all longpig…

Just joking it’s real pig. Mostly.

Today I’m wearing almost exclusively vintage stuff I found digging around my closet. FITMESH! Remember that? Eh it doesn’t fit so well anymore but it works out. Do you wear your old things? WHY NOT? Get your linden’s worth!

Food Coma in 5..4..3..2..

Leave a reply
What was I thinking?

I cooked way too much. I knew I was going to be solo but still, I couldn’t resist thinking of the glorious leftovers. Forgetting, though, that I just have this minifridge right now.

This means I’ve got to eat. And eat and eat and eat.

I can’t let it all to go waste, can I?

    You see what this food is doing to my shirt don’t you?

    August 28th, 2020. A pink day

    Oh hi! Today I didn’t go to work because of what I thought was a sciatica. Turns out it’s a tendonitis in my buttock. Yes, you may laugh, and no, I don’t know how I did that. Anyway, since I had a little time at home on my own, I managed to put together an outfit and take a few pictures.

    I went to Uber and grabbed a few of the gifts that each store has, as it’s a birthday round. These lovely glasses were one of them. So were the adorable fairy lights in the picture below. I also grabbed (not a gift but worth it) another set of gorgeous rings from Yummy, and the matching nails from Nylon Outfitters.

    Dusk till Dawn with My Alt

    1 Reply

    We didn’t have big plans for a Saturday Night, so we ventured out to a local hang out and plopped down in comfy chairs for some acoustic music and an occasional overpriced coffee. I took my alt Aliana over to The Epiphany to pick up a new wig, and it was quality time with someone I don’t find annoying. I’m DEFINITELY going to be keeping her on deck more – she’s not picky about what color hair comes out of a gacha and not fussy when I dress her out of the 10L box from Izzie’s.

    Truly, a low maintenance companion.

    I was grateful that we thought to grab food while we were at The Epiphany. A cup of noodles and a slice hit the spot as we wound down back at home. Belliseria at dawn is really lovely.

    We are going to end up sleeping away Sunday, I’m sure of it.

    New Year New House

    I had a great idea for my solo New Year’s Adventure. I was going to go hop on the train at Red Hook and take pics of people’s lovely Victorians and just enjoy this lovely area. I thought it was an amazing plan. Then I stood at the train station and no train came, and I couldn’t find a button to push to request the train. I was probably doing something wrong but I could NOT figure out WHAT.

    I ended up giving up and getting in my car and going for a drive.

    It was a great time for an early morning drive, but eventually I wound up at the end of Bellisseria and found the beach. Of course some how these lucky sods had these AMAZING beach views – just stunning. I parked and walked along the beach while the sun continued it’s dance upward. There is definitely something to be said for these Victorians on the beach.

    I decided to drown my sorrows in some treats and just spend the rest of the day languishing in my own beautiful Victorian. Such sorrow, truly.

    No such thing as too many macarons

    I found a pretty cute grocery to stop in at. It actually had some sort of role play farmers market and vegetables with expiration dates. This is too much of a time commitment for moi. I am intrigued but no, just no.

    Maybe? No, no no. No actual food that expires I cannot.

    I ordered in Sushi, put on a movie and decided I was in for the night. The cats didn’t mind and truly, I crashed on the couch and didn’t have a care in the world. 2019 was good, and I’m not worked up about 2020. It will be fine. Every single year doesn’t have to be some groundbreaking event. Sometimes just making it happen is enough.

    I did, however, wake up and move house.

    Because – beachy Vic.

    My Water Feature

    I was feeling a bit adventurous and rolled the dice on getting one of the new Victorian Homes. Despite the fact that this moved me away from Cajsa – their siren song was just too compelling. My first try I got a lovely spot next to this beautiful water feature.

    I have no complaints.

    Of course I only had to ride my bike a short way to find people immediately ruining the beautifully curated garden landscape.

    I was too dumfounded to let the paving stones rez. What the hell is that? What are you doing?

    I get it if you wanna have a vehicle. At least have the sense to put it behind your house.

    My friend Gogolita is the decor police – I may have to join her in this endeavor. These are so well done, it’s just tragic if people can’t maintain the look really. How hard is it not to put out crap that doesn’t match?

    I’m giving these guys a pass, they might be trying to decide what they like.

    Have you made the jump to the Linden Victorians? This is the time – get yours now and let’s make a community! I will put some coffee on and you can come over any time! I promise!

    Giant Refrigerators of Doom

    I have a weird assortment of food. 

    Did you ever not notice something and then suddenly you’re like WHAT THE EFF ?

    That’s me this morning. Why is my refrigerator GIANT? I’ve been a pretty tall pixel girl my whole SLife. I’m not glamazon “I AM A MODEL” tall, but I’m not a shorty.

    Yet suddenly I realize I can’t see in to my own freezer! And this is where the ice cream is, so this is a real tragedy.

    But where there is a will, there is a way…

    Mermaid Ice Cream for Breakfast

    I mean, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Even if you have to climb up your fridge like a spider monkey to get it!

    Old Meets New Meets Magic

    I’m still playing with the glory that is the Baked on Mesh concept – the idea that our old system layers can be baked onto our beautiful mesh.

    it’s fairly fascinating and wonderful honestly.  Today I decided to do some swimming and to celebrate what’s possible I’m wearing an amazing new bikini from Blueberry – paired with a skin from………MOTHER GOOSE.

    Mother Goose that lucky board haven, that magical land of fun and interesting skins. YES I can and will wear her skins on my mesh. And so many more. Continue reading →

    The Arcade Closes at Midnight Saturday

    Leave a reply

    This was when the aging smokestacks atop the monumental factories began to shut off one by one

    “This was when the aging smokestacks atop the monumental factories began to shut off one by one. There were still plenty left running to keep the air over Detroit filled with that choking industrial aptitude, but you were never far from a hollowed-out factory, massive steel tubes on the roofs pointing up toward the sky with nothing left inside but dust and cobwebs. These giant pillars of concrete and metal now jutted high like extended index fingers from broken and casted hands, pointing toward something they would never touch.”
    ― Michael A. Ferro, TITLE 13: A Novel

    This was when the aging smokestacks atop the monumental factories began to shut off one by one
    The Arcade closes at midnight Saturday and if you let that happen without picking up the fabulous industrial pieces from NOMAD, you will miss out. The gacha has the delicious name of My Cozy Little Industrial Facility that cracks me up in the best possible way.
