Ow I also wasn't able to go this time. I hope you get better soon Cali!

If you wrote a blog about your experiences with SL, I would totally read it, loved your writing style and made you me laugh and remember my noob days. Sadly, SL as a HUGE learning curve in my opinion. Over the years I invited multiple friends from my RL and none of them stayed because they got very frustrated. Staying with clothes on and avoiding to get harassed by trolls was too hard for them , and I can't blame them. I was lucky enough to be mentored by a veteran resident, and also my natural stubbornness helped tons, so I manage to enjoy SL over time. I hope you do it as well, once you get the hang of it it's quite fun!

Grew up in the 90's in a part of the city where they were just start to build houses. I had neighbors next to my house, but right in front of it, it looked like a wasteland: thorny plants and even abandoned broken cars included. I was too young to be allowed to play with older brother's friends, and in the neighborhood there were only girls my own age that refused to play with me. So I spend my childhood building mud castles, cutting thorny plants with a metal rod and pretending it was a sword, exploring 'the wasteland' with my loyal german shepard (Who would have known I'd be playing Fallout without knowing it), or riding my bike. Because I was active, moving and running all the time, I excelled at sports, and if I was ever taken to a park, I would be at the top of a tree, dangling like a monkey. I'd play Street hockey with my older cousins because I was stubborn enough to learn how to skate at 5. We'd also make flower crowns and try to collect bugs and frogs before setting them free. Now, I don't wanna sound like these 'back in my days...' kind of person, but it truly breaks my heart to see how my 6 year old nephew is able to use a tablet or smartphone like any capable adult, but then when he gets up he stumbles. When he trips and falls he cries uncontrollably cause he isn't use to have scraped knees. Take him to a park and he doesn't know how to use the monkey bars or can't even sit properly on a swing. And he's not the only one. I have a HUGE family (We Mexicans are like that, what can I say), and most of the kids are like this. I've taken as a personal challenge to teach every nephew and niece how to play outside or do simple tasks or just how to play sports, but yeah. I can't really blame the parents. In some cases both of them work, and after a long day out and trying to provide for their family, they come home to relax and spend as much time as they can with the kids, watching a movie or helping with homework. No time to teach them the basics. Also, while I was working as a private tutor, I noticed how schools are focusing more on technology instead of teaching them basic things and motor skills. Such a shame.

My condolences. I have a huge family in RL, and ever since the pandemic started I've lost 11 relatives due to covid and covid complications. I'm sure Devilish Daph Blake was so grateful and happy to have you as a friend.

Looks good, but it needs more dancing and twirling

You look so happy though!
