Week 8 Reflections- Drowning in Second Life

I enjoyed meeting with the class in Second Life. It was definitely out of my comfort zone. I really did feel like I was actually there. I was feeling some of those artificial emotions that Dr. Ellis spoke about. I am still getting familiar with finding destinations. On our field trip assignment I was completely lost. I ended up in an ocean, or maybe it was a lake....at any rate I was in a large body of water and I literally felt like I was drowning!! I am looking forward to learning how to find my way around in this virtual world.
On a personal note Jaleigh has missed two days of school this week. Was in the Dr's office with her this morning. Nothing serious, just a bad cold and a little fever. She is at Grandma's house today, and somehow that makes everything all better :-)

My avatar is encouragment for me to stay focused on my weight loss goal. I have gone from a size 22 to a size 14. I have long brown hair, however, when I reach my goal I plan to cut it similar to my avatar's. Like my avatar I am most comfortable in Jeans. My favorite color is red, hence the red shirt. :-)

Delicious,Flickr, Facebook & Twitter...OH MY!

As you can see I am catching up on my weekly reflections. Sometimes I feel like there's just not enough hours in the day! And....Jaleigh starts Fall Ball (Soccer) this week. She looks forward to playing and I love going to her games.

Delicious and Flickr were very easy to use, I don't know that I will use them often, but it is good to know that I can.
I'm not a big fan of Twitter. It gets to be a bit much at times.
Facebook....I'm addicted. Enough said about that.
