About Jessyka

Me then and now

My name is Jessyka Richard and I’m from Second Life.  Regardless of what anyone says, including myself, it’s the best virtual world that exists right now.

In 2005, I made an account and verified with PayPal.  As it turned out, my graphics card wasn’t good enough to even log in, so I deleted my account, unlinked it from PayPal and uninstalled the client.

Several months later, my brother got into Second Life and I would watch over his shoulder, wondering if I’d ever make it back.  A few years later, I was living on my own and purchased a new computer.  I thought to look back into Second Life and found that my account never got deleted.  I recovered my password and logged in.  My brother helped me out for the first few days before I started on my own.

I’ve tried to find my place in the metaverse for over a year now, and even though my rez date is in 2005, I consider my real rez date sometime in February of 2008 (I have no problem being grandfathered into 50L a week though!).

As far as my place, I haven’t exactly found it yet.  I have friends on both ends of the social ladder with a bunch of different skill sets, but I’m stuck in the middle.  I’m not great at building and I don’t want to compromise who I am to be a model.  My strengths are in scripting, freebie hunting and doing things for teh lulz, but I haven’t been able to get my foot into any particular door.  My hope for the future is to own a TV show in world, but that project is in infant stages right now.

Not sure what else people might want to know about me, so feel free to ask.  Send me a message in world or leave a comment.
