I think it's nuts people are willing to pay for virtual items, let alone spend fortunes on virtual worlds. Then again, if you can spend a small fortune and actually turn it around to make a bigger fortune, by all means go for it.
Found out there are millionaires who made all their money from Second Life virtual real estate. In the virtual world of Entropia, a man made $335,000 from selling a building. A building that doesn't actually exist that sits on an asteroid that doesn't exist for over a third of a million in dollars that do exist.
Insanity...but for the sellers, more power to you.

Looked at every blog...at least I'm not too behind.
So it seems I'm not the only one who doesn't blog on a consistent basis. Nice to know but something I need to break out of if I want to be a consistently good writer. Here's to hoping I read somne good stuff this semester.

Today sucked, time to read blogs
Today I did some errands with my mom and we argued like always, which is why I avoid talking to her, as mean as that sounds. She is afraid of everything and so negative about everything in life, I can't stand it. Went to work and have to go in early tomorrow to finish things I didn't tonight, not looking forward to that.
About to start reading my classmates blogs, hopefully this will be a silver lining in what has been a crappy day. So yeah, if you're in Coms 178, I want to read some interesting, uplifting or positive stuff. You can even make it up people, just something that will make me feel a little better.

Starting over
I used to be a steady blogger, then the Myspace readers dropped when Myspace became obsolete. So know I guess I will just do it here. I really need to get in the habit of blogging again. It will help me become a better writer and more successful in life.
So yeah, life is still hard but on I go.
