I was an "ugly" teenager (whatever ugly is). With ginger hair, freckles and the cheapest spectacles our family could afford. I wasn't cool or popular but found an early sense of peace through spending a great deal of time in my own company and never needing to be approved of by my peers (cause I didn't have any). I did end up a little bit socially inept though. I left school as soon as I could and went to work and was unfortunately made redundant a few times in a row which made me kinda bored. "Why bother" was my attitude at that time. I turned to alcohol and drugs and became the antichrist. People literally crossed the street to avoid me. But I was always honest and kind and decent. I ended up feeling so low and withdrawn that I sank into a state of almost total disassociation which developed into schizophrenia. That was a dark time and not the kind of thing one should be writing here (the same goes for the assault I suffered as a child at the hands of a pervert).

Revision as of 17:39, 2 June 2009

I figured since I have opted to participate in the documentation of this wiki that I should write a lil something about myself and why I am here.

However.....I have to take my dog out pretty soon and need a cup of tea and a ciggy before I do anything (including having a cup of tea and a ciggy(and yes that is a constant loop)). I will though write a lil biog for anyone who cares to know something about me when I get some time.

Thanx for your interest -- Eddy 08:49, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Well lets see.... I grew up "normal" I suppose (whatever normal is), cutting worms in half and being amazed to have two and burning matchbox cars with flammable liquids and rags in order to emulate the scenes from the likes of "The Dukes of Hazard" and "The A Team". I was an "ugly" teenager (whatever ugly is). With ginger hair, freckles and the cheapest spectacles our family could afford. I wasn't cool or popular but found an early sense of peace through spending a great deal of time in my own company and never needing to be approved of by my peers (cause I didn't have any). I did end up a little bit socially inept though. I left school as soon as I could and went to work and was unfortunately made redundant a few times in a row which made me kinda bored. "Why bother" was my attitude at that time. I turned to alcohol and drugs and became the antichrist. People literally crossed the street to avoid me. But I was always honest and kind and decent. I ended up feeling so low and withdrawn that I sank into a state of almost total disassociation which developed into schizophrenia. That was a dark time and not the kind of thing one should be writing here (the same goes for the assault I suffered as a child at the hands of a pervert). So after some years of pure hell and a short stay in prison followed by a slightly longer stay in an asylum I was feeling a little better. I found a quiet place to sit and think and around 3-4 years later I peeled myself off the window sill I had sat on for almost all of that time (seriously) and with a new found understanding I went forth into the world afresh. In the time between going insane and reaching a state of reasonable calm I found Zen and it made sense. Around 3 years ago I finally shook off my attainment and reached nirvana. That was cool.

I just wanted to say a personal TY for SL. It has honestly turned my life around from being pretty rubbish to being truly excelent. I am starting a business, I have friends and am learning LSL and building etc. Because of this I am leaning how to use other systems like QAvimator and GIMP.

SecondLife has made my first one worth living. And I am really loving every day of both.

Have a great SecondLife Mr. Linden.
