My avatar’s name is JoeC Mnemonic. Since I named my avatar after my first name and middle initial, I hoped to give the avatar the appearance of myself in real life. I have the personality that I need to “dress to impress” at times. Most times, my friends notice that I am well-dressed because I regularly wear jeans and a polo shirt. Therefore, I dressed my avatar in a black and grey long-sleeved sweater, black dressy jeans with a silver belt buckle, and shiny black dress shoes to give me a sophisticated appearance. However, I could not find how to change the hair on my avatar, so until I find out, my hair will remain as is. In addition, I tried to match as close as I could to matching my physical appearance and characteristics in real-life, but I could not inquire on how to find glasses.
The initial appearance that Second Life gave to my avatar was very boring. In order to meet my expectations, a complete makeover was deemed necessary to make my avatar unique from everyone else who plays the game. My impression of my initial appearance was very unoriginal and basic. I did not want to keep that appearance because everyone who plays Second Life might have the impression that I do not have my own style or do not care how I look. For now, I am going to keep the appearance of my avatar as is because I can be a perfectionist and creating my avatar appearance took quite some time. I believe that until I find how to change the hair on my avatar and wear glasses, no changes will be made. Once I get better at playing Second Life, I may get a job and buy clothes from the store if I get bored with my current look. The only input that I needed from classmates and others in Second Life was their comments if I had matched the features of my face and skin as well as how to put on the free clothes. No, I have not spent any money on clothes because there seems to be an ample amount of free clothes on the game. Therefore, I just navigated myself throughout the game and experimented with the free clothes that I was able to find. Some of the changes that I would like to make are changing the hair on my avatar and possibly acquiring a pair of glasses since I wear glasses in real life. I have not had too much time to experiment with the gestures and sound features, but I look forward to learning the necessary skills.
