Entering the world of Second Life Vs Real »
Birth of a Second Life Genius
This look makes me feel like I have become an unattainable anime babe -
littering the screens with those glitters and sparkles plus a flood of
cute giggles, among other delightful things that are beyond goodness
itself. Yes, my avatar stands for everything I am not and all that I
could never be and that couldn't make me happier. World, brace yourself;
meet the perfect figment of my highly creative imagination, Ember
Jackson.
Going back to my (virtual) reality, donning a few pieces of unsightly rags and with just a stingy L$250 (L$ means Linden Dollars) on hand, I am constantly wandering around Second Life's beautiful streets. I am thinking of what I should do first. Well, I figured, since I am in no way an affluent resident who belongs to the elite society, the best option to choose would have to be… the junkyard! Fashion aficionados, don't fret - it's not as unpleasant as it seems to be. In fact, the junkyard contains tons of nice clothes and cute accessories.
You know what the best part is? Most of the stuffs are for free! All other exceptions would charge you only about one or two Linden dollars. Because you've bought the best bargains and free items, don't expect that they'll be completely in-season. If you compare these items with what the locals usually wear, they're actually quite old. Don't worry though; you can take them in as vintage fashions. I suggest newly signed up members to Second Life should try the perfectly named "Newbie Paradise."
I'm sure it has the most things you want to get your hands on. For the newbies who have just a few cash to spare, Wagaland (111, 123, and 30) is a useful junkyard to go to. Another equally great place for scavengers of prized junks is YadNi's (Leda, 210, 28 and 54). Desirable items, just like with all other large establishments, get sold out fast so remember that after getting your bearings for one minute or perhaps, two (you'd be surprised just how unimaginably massive junkyards can be), shop 'til your body drops or you'll go home regretting it!
Are junkyards only about clothes? No, absolutely not. Everything and anything necessary for you to start your new life as well as your Second Life such as furniture, appliances, vehicles, and even weapons - the junkyards have them all. In Second Life, you get to teleport immediately to your favored destination so buying yourself a vehicle is not important unless you think of establishing your identity or status with it. If it's not about leveling up your personality, then consider spending time on deciding about what more useful things you should buy.
Weapons don't offer much help either because you can't use them against other avatars unless you get involved in numerous fighting games that are going on. These weaponries have no effect on the residents living in the streets of Second Life because a huge portion of the place is declared a safe zone. Once again, unless what you are buying will help boost the identity you are after of, don't bother getting the stuff.
So, I've finally bought myself a good wardrobe, a vast selection of furniture and a great collection of wonderful accessories, I just can't wait 'til the next time I get to test out my incredibly perfect new self!
