Back to second life

Initially i found second life a bit strange. For some reason i found the idea of talking to other peoples avatars a bit strange and i also found the idea of talking to complete strangers a bit wierd. I enjoyed the setup of my avatar where i had to create my character , especially changing the features of my avatar, such as facial features, and the clothes that my character was wearing.

Im glad i decided to change my character to a boy even though i noticed i got different sorts of people coming to talk to me when i was a girl to when i was a boy. When i was a girl more females talked to me whereas when i converted my character into a male when i tried to talk to females they just avioded me and didnt reply.

I found the interface of second life not all that easy to understand, i think the tutorials were sometimes hard to find and on occasions it would tell your to do something that wouldnt work. As i was doing one tutorial i came across a stone statue who told me to go and tell "his brother" a statue further up what the prophet was and when he asked me for the answer and i replied he just never responded and i must have tried it like 10 times.

Overall i did actually quite enjoy second life and got used to everything i initially found strange. Im not sure if i will carry on using second life though, i have enjoyed it this term but i dont think its something i would do often in my spare time, i may use it now and again but not on a regular basis like i have been doing this term.
