Ok I've reached day four, possibly five, of my exposure to SL. I have scupted a gigantic angel and recently started playing with scrips. Ive met many interesting (physicly or mentaly) people. And I have enjoyed every minute of my time here.

So I'm playing with some of the scripts I have recived from kind people within the community and was working a simple Rez object script and eventualy left the computer alone too long due to IRL issues and got loged out.

Ok well I needed some time to think anyhow so this will be a good thing... (heh)

I pull up note pad and just sit and brain storm ideas for objects or functionality that I haven't seen yet in my exploration and they start flowing.

1... 2... 4... 8... 20... 30... try and lay down and sleep... Failed!... 40...

Ive Got near to 46 different things writen down that I've GOT to build now, and I CANT LOG IN! (Note: This is not a plea to extend hours if they did I'd probably die from sleep deprevation). I couldn't go to sleep cause I had to turn this thing back on to record the general idea name so I could make it later!

This game has my head POUNDING with things i just have to create, When the creators say that Second Life's system as near limitless possibilities they are NOT KIDDING. I think with enough time and know how their is excrutiatingly little you couldn't eventualy acomplish in SL.

I will be twitching close to 12pm tommarow as I anxiously await my ability to log back in and get back to work!

And because of people like you, there's always something more to see during your explorations. I've seen that giant angel, and I was quite impressed by it!

Agreed, I love programming and when I was little I loved making things (Lego, paper things etc. etc.)

But because I'm not so good in making things in real life (I'm too clumsy and too impatient) I started programming.

But now in second life I can use both. I can make real (virtual) objects, and I can't really mess it up like in real life.

Besides from that I can use my other hobby, programming, to make them interactive.

Also I love working with other on something and SL has that too!!!

It's really REALLY addicting.
