Catch up!

Saturday I went to see my optometrist (?) for a check-up and a quickscan. I have really bad eyesight and I wanted to see if I was able to get laser surgery. Unfortunately my cornea is too thin so it wouldn’t be wise to have laser surgery. Next to that my pupil is really large so that means no implant lenses either *gulp* Even though my eyesight is bad my eyes are pretty healthy - I can be happy about that. The optometrist, who has been monitoring my eyes for 7 years now, felt really sorry for me. But since I’ve been wearing glasses and contacts for a large part of my life I didn’t feel really sad about it. He was suprised I was so sober about it :P

During the examination we started to talk about Second Life :) He even looked it up on his computer and because he doesn’t have Windows at home, but Linux he started to look for a version for Linux! He said he COULD download it, but he WOULDN’T do it. And he started to chat about how he wasn’t a computer nerd, didn’t like Windows XP and how he installed Linux. I told him there were pretty scary stories on the web about people’s relations ruined because of Second Life and cyber cheating. He said that same things could happen with MSN and other things were you get in contact with eachother. And who said he wasn’t a computer nerd? :shock: びっくりしましたよ ~

Even though I love to play SL I’ve been focusing on my school things too - of course. I’m busy with finishing my application for the Social Information Science minor, I only have to register for some classes now. I’m also insanely busy with understanding media economics, external communication and setting up a decent survey with my fellow project members :neutral: :evil: And I’ve just learned Leiden University students already are in their final week of college! I still have a few weeks to go ~ 心配しないで。I’m having a good time :saylove: :mrgreen:
