QotW10: The diary of a game noob - A day in Second Life
Meet my alter ego in Second Life, Mellie Laval! This is her/me sitting on the chair in Orientation Island. Hmm. Seems like I forgot to change the size of my hands at that time. They look a tad too gigantic. Tsk tsk. I gotta say, I did not complete Orientation Island. When I was stuck at the board that prompted me to download QuickTime, I stupidly flew around (at that time, it was like WOW i fly!) and teleported elsewhere. I couldn't go back to Orientation Island to complete the rest of the walk thru. End of story -_-.
Oh kay, so why did I choose this SL name? I wanted my SL name to correspond with the initials of my real name, M.L. My avatar, well.. Looks nice! I was having fun altering the appearance of my alter ego, heh. I made her eyes a little bigger, nose a little sharper, body a little taller... It was like plastic surgery! I think the only real likeness to me is... I have those bangs! I also enjoyed altering her outfit, the one that was originally provided was uggly. I picked the nicest out of the freebies I got (everyone say YAY for freebies). I like the skirt she's wearing, but the top isn't something I'd wear in my first life. Heh.
I fly! After I stupidly teleported out of Orientation Island to explore and realised that I couldn't go back, I went to Help Island to raise my white flag. Had some interesting conversations with people there. Forgot to screencap them..
Still hanging around Help Island at this time. Yes, my alter ego does look pretty helpless.
Went on a lame attempt of a sight-seeing tour. I'm in Lion City! Not a soul in sight here!
Found Yepp Yoshikawa at Paolo Rome, Italy. By this time, SL was lagging on me and had crashed so many times that I was on the verge of pulling my hair out.
At the Jade's Jazz Lounge, sitting back whilst watching people dance. Sad to say, I only visited these 3 venues, so I do not even have a favourite place! I would have loved to explore SL even more. But as aforementioned, SL was lagging and crashing like mad on me. Ugh. I wanted to visit some gardens, museums, watch some movies, and attend some concerts and performances! Sigh, maybe another time.
