I joined in December of 2005 and haven&#8217;t looked back since. What makes SL cool is that it is about 98% user created. What this means is that your experience can be different each time you log in. Now to be real, SL is not perfect&#8230; it was never meant to be. I&#8217;ve heard talk that many believe that theres is a risk of getting addicted to it, but um&#8230; isn&#8217;t that the same risk with all Virtual Worlds? Like I told a buddy of mine recently, if people remember that SL is not a game, but another way to interact with people online, then I don&#8217;t think addiction would be an issue.<\/p>\n<p>Ok, now that I think about it, I can see how many can think that SL is addictive. Being that there is so much creative freedom and things to see, many who first join don&#8217;t know where to begin. Should they learn to build? Should they go site seeing? Or what about the clubs or different events&#8230; so many to choose from! Oh and let&#8217;s not forget the fact that you definitely want to look your best, so shop &#8217;til you drop!<\/p>\n<p>Hmmm, ok I take it back, Second Life can be a bit addictive at first. So here&#8217;s what I can do for you: Once you <a title=\"Join Second Life\" href=\"http:\/\/www.secondlife.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sign up<\/a>, look for me inworld. My name in SL is Princess Pierterson. See that pretty girl in the pict to your left &#8211; that&#8217;s how I currently look inworld. I own an art gallery there called &#8220;Princess&#8217; Original Art Gallery&#8221; that showcases some of my artwork and designs. I am also a Top Model with one of the premier Modeling Agencies in Second Life called &#8220;ASpiRE! Modeling Agency&#8221;. In addition, I host a radio show called &#8220;The Voice&#8221; with CIO of ASpiRE!, Trina Noland every Thursday nights at 9 pm Eastern (6pm SL time) . So now you have multiple ways to get in touch with me. If you find that you&#8217;re having a hard time remembering to log off, I&#8217;ll be more then happy to send you little reminders If I&#8217;m online. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As I mentioned on my About page, I&#8217;m a proud member of SL (Second Life).
