stuck in the couch

so... today i got stuck in a couch. and it was not fun.

i'm STILL having trouble with the game in general. all of the places we go in class seem fun and entertaining, but i just can't get a hang of it. i hear people talking about the places they've gone and the things they've done and i just can't seem to figure it out. maybe it's because i'm not a true gamer, i don't know. maybe i just need to play more to get the hang of it. who knows.

i think my favorite part still is just dressing up my avatar. it's basicly like a virtual barbie doll, but a little more grown up and more specific.

finding out about this roam site is kinda making me a little more comfortable. knowing that i'll be able to look up places that i'll want to explore instead of just wandering around like a dummy.

learning to fly (and walk)

so we've been playing this game called second life in qual research for a little over a week now. and i still have mixed feelings on it. sometimes i think it's really dumb, others i don't want to stop playing, and then most of the time i curse it for slowing down my computer.

the process of creating my avatar was actually the most fun i had. i got to go through each and every body part and make it just the way i wanted it. i'm still not done messing around with it. there are so many more things i could possibly do, i'm still learning.

i still really feel like such a beginner. not only do i not know how to get places or find things, i can't even walk properly! i'm always running into things and not going where i want to go. flying is a bit easier but not as controling.
