Where were you born?

Temple of Iris II, originally uploaded by Raul Crimson.

Veyron Supercharge started a new “historical” meme game about where we were born, i mean the SL bloggers. I was reading also the post from Timothy Lilliehook and this other from Zippora Zabelin about this.

Tomorrow is my first “rezzday” so i think is the best moment to talk about the moment and place where i was born. The place is The Temple of Iris, a SL historical place.

As you can see in the images, the place is quite nice, have to look for more information about the place, but is the SLwiki just talk about it as an infohub, no more information available. It is kinda chinese style temple, is a water sim with all the buildings there linked by footbridges.

Oct, 26th 2006. Raul Crimson lands in the center of The Temple of Iris, comming from the Orientation Island. He is feeling terribly lost and lonely. Is midnight in Mainland, and there is nobody around. After checking the info signs there he decides to explore the sim, flying over it. He is too young and doesn’t flight right, still no experience. Finally he prefers to keep walking in the footbridges near the Temple. After some minutes walking he finds a club near. There are some people dancing and chatting. After some minutes of doubts he dares to say: “Hi!”.

This were the beginning of my Second Life, my first moments in this “everchanging” world. And being there, with my friend Khamudy, brought me all the memories of my first day. Maybe i’m too emotive (sure i am), maybe was the visit to this place and my rezzday together, maybe is like a RL birthday, or a New Year Eve, the moment when you think about your last year, about what was good and what was not so good, about what you will do better and what you won’e change…

There is a rumor about this old Infohubs. Veyron says, in her post: “…Rumor has it that Linden Labs is slowly demolishing the older, cooler infohubs and selling off the land. Some of them are lost forever. …”. So, please, go and take some pictures of the place you were born and post them in your blog, in Flickr, Koinup or any other similar place. This will be a good way to keep the memory about that cool places where we were born.
