Just like getting an online university degree, I wanted to start this new virtual life right, I don’t want this to be like how it’s like with other people who have just found something new to play for pleasure, or to explore and meet new friends virtually. Well, I have nothing against that, in fact I am open to meeting and making new friends, but not someone special.
I have Red Butterfly and she’s all that I’d ever want to spend and share everything with. I don’t want this to be just another virtual or online game that we play. We are already engaged in real life and I want to make it the same virtually. And so I proposed to Red Butterfly by giving her a ring and asking her to marry me. I wanted to take her to a place that is romantic and beautiful, but I dunno, no matter where I looked I couldn’t seem to find the perfect place. Everything always looked so common and plain, or maybe they’re just always out stood by my baby’s beauty. Her smile alone lights up every place that we went to… (more…)

The New Beginning
Saturday, November 15th, 2008The Mountain Drive
Thursday, November 13th, 2008I was trying to browse some nice rooms when I accidentally clicked on the chat now button and unexpectedly met a filipina girl who is also into online games and taking online college courses. It turned out that she just signed up and created her own RPG 3D Avatar. I invited Red Butterfly over to the room to meet her. We were in her basic penthouse and she asked if we had other rooms and I said yeah. I asked Red Butterfly to switch rooms and then we took her for a short mountain drive as we were heading to the other side of the island to Red Butterfly’s beach house. (more…)
A Day at the Virtual Gym
Wednesday, November 12th, 2008After our virtual ecology trip, we decided to go to the gym. Just like how it is in real life, RPG virtual characters or Avatars go to the gym too. This particular gym room was given to me as a gift by a good friend named Shanti. She owns the virtual club called Shanti’s place. As you can see in the photo, this gym has a complete set of gym and exercise equipments. From treadmills, recliners, to bench with barbels, this room also goes with a boxing practice area.
There is a lobby too that looks more like a little pantry that is not included in the photo. The equipments include animations that simulates the lifelike exercises and the treadmill functions the way a real one does. You may also lift one of those barbels if you feel like it. This room isn’t all about exercising, it also goes with funny poses and couple poses.
Virtual Boxing
I guess that’s about it, I just wanted to share this room and the virtual experience in my short day at the gym with Red Butterfly. Red Butterfly’s the one running on the treadmill wearing black and white exercise clothing. She’s also the one practicing how to punch. It’s funny when she tries hitting that punching bag with her head too. She looks pretty serious when she does this stuff. It makes me wonder if there’s someone she’d like to punch in real life. She just kicked my balls earlier today (Ouch!). Anyway, just click on the photos for a larger version of the images.
And if you want to experience all these, don’t hesitate to click that banner on the sidebar. It’s all that it takes.
Rooms and Bubbles
Monday, November 10th, 2008Virtual Citizens communicate through Text Bubbles. This is true in most RPG, MMORPG, or any other games where players have the ability to talk and interact with one another. although most games uses chat boxes, I still prefer the bubbles. It can be a little annoying at time, most especially when you’re taking screen shots, good thing there’s a way to remove it. Anyway many are confused on how it works, basically, you just invisibly type something you want to say and then it appears in bubble on top of your character. there’s an option to switch it a usual chat window through by pressing Ctrl and B simultaneously.

Buckstars Coffee
Sunday, November 9th, 2008Yes, you got it right! Buckstars Coffee, there is such. If in real life there’s the famous Starbucks Coffee where people taking mba programs usually meet up, it also has it’s counterpart in the virtual world of RPG and MMORPG, and that is Buckstars Coffee. Where coffee is good, it’s staggering where you get everything for the price of a buck. Buckstars is one of the basic and most important among what they call locked rooms. Aside from being a place where you can have virtual coffee talk and hang out with your friends, it’s also the room wherein you land on every time you get booted up in a conversation, where you’re not the owner of the place.

The Virtual World and Environment
Wednesday, November 5th, 2008The First Journey Towards Virtual Reality
Tuesday, November 4th, 2008Taking A Different Route
Sunday, November 2nd, 2008Most people blog about things that happens in real life some about their online college degree. The things they do, their experiences, what they have observed, new discoveries, and all that pertains to their daily personal experiences. Some people write about what’s on the news, what’s the hottest product in the market, people dying and people killing people, the hottest trends in fashion, music and sports industry. Some blogs to share their passion in writing, poetry, music, art, and photography. That’s what the usual blogging is all about. I myself prefer to belong to the other side of bloggers, people who blog about their favorite online games, RPG games in particular the newest and hippest softwares to hit the web, but more specifically about virtual life. Sometimes there are things that we can’t do in real life that are possible in virtual reality, you discover people, make new friends, join a community, discover new places, hang out with your friends, and even become famous in the virtual world. A world that the only limit is your own imagination. An escape from reality, and sometimes a stepping stone to finding your dream in real life. A way to make real friends, and to become inspired to make those dreams and adventures real. Today, I will be taking a different route in blogging and take the same journey as those who have gone before me.
