hello! yoshi

So today, my mom should be showing up! yay! She’s coming into town to check out some houses, since my parents will be moving here in June. Yeah, I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned it, but my parents have sold their house in NJ and are now getting ready to make the move out here to be closer to us. It would be cool if my sister moved out here too, but I think she’s happy in AZ. Honestly, I don’t blame her.

But yeah, I’m sure I’ll keep up with the posts. I’m trying to post ahead of time, just so I don’t miss the days. But this week, I might even fail the posting everyday thing. Of course, I haven’t really had any posts of depth lately. I mean seriously. I’ve been talking about trivial things, things in the news, and just about nothingness. I promise in the future I’ll start writing some more posts with real content.

Oh, also, Meesh was making note that some people I know aren’t in my links. If you’re not in there and you think you should be, please let me know. I might have forgotten some folks when I rebuilt the links.

So any big plans for this weekend?

Ok, can someone shed some light on this for me? Yes, I understand the concept of Second Life. It’s like an interactive world where you can chat and hang out with your friends inside a 3D world. Yeah, it looks cool. But what I’m really not understanding is pretty simple. What’s the goal of this? I don’t know why, but I just have this overwhelming urge to understand Second Life.

Now, honestly, I understand that you can set up shop, you can actually make real money from the game by selling goods, such as clothes (for within the game) and I guess there are other ways to make money, but I’m just not talented enough for that. I’ve explored a small part of the world, and I’ve even tried to participate with the whole CSI:NY mystery. Which was really cool btw. Although I didn’t get very far.

I guess because I don’t know anyone inside Second Life, so it’s a bit tougher. I don’t make friends in those things too easy, only because there are so many jokers and losers out there who try to ruin the game for you. (ala World of Warcraft) But I digress.

There is also some humour out there too: Get a First Life. Now that is just hilarious. Go ahead, the link is real. It’s only one page.

So can someone help me out with Second Life? Should I just stick with my First Life?
