    History in TSL Mentors 
  • I applied to be a TSL Mentor 2.0 in May 2007, I went to the Second Life Website, then I clicked on the Community Tab > Volunteer Tab. I had to write about myself and what I can offer to TSL Mentors 2.0 group, which was fun to write about. Then I clicked Apply Now button to send of my application.
  • Then I was accepted on Wednesday 26th of September 2007 to join TSL Mentors 2.0 through E-Mail which was so exciting. The E-Mail is shown below;

  • After being excepted into TSL Mentors, I had to attend a TSL Mentor 2.0 Orientation Session in September 2007 to find out what I had to do, details about the group rules, tao of volunteers, how to help out and meeting the wonderful TSL VTeam Lindens (Mia, George, Amber, Blue, Lexie Linden). There were about 18 of us there and I throught it went really well. Even better I got a free TSL Mentors T-Shirt along with a TSL Volunteers Information Pack.
  • Of course, I took many awsome snapshots of being a TSL Mentor 2.0 and of the First Orientation Session (very cool indeed). I have made my own TSL Mentors 2.0 set on my Flickr so that I can save photos of my time being a TSL Mentor. After the Orientation Session I went to the Welcome Areas to start helping new residents which was fun and I love it very much.
  • In December 2007, I went along to the first TSL Mentors 2.0 Meeting to find out upcoming projects, latest volunteer news, rules, TSL Volunteer Portal and lot's more. This was really awsome because I meet new TSL Mentors and got to know them better, today we are great friends.
  • In January 2008, (The NEW EXCITING YEAR). We were told through Group Notice that there would be a new TSL VOLUNTEER ISLAND to be set up for just us. I decided to set up a TSL Mentors 2.0 Flickr to store photos of Mentoring, the great times, helping at Welcome Areas and around the grid.
  • I went the 2nd TSL Mentors Meeting on the 31st January from 4pm - 5pm SLT to get told the upcoming projects, news, new roles. This was just amazing, I had to talk about the TSL Greeter role in TSL Mentors 2.0 group. I joined TSL Mentor Buddy role on 4th February 2008, this is so amazing, also I was the first Buddy to be invited into TSL Mentors 2.0 group.
  • On the 7th of March 2008 there was a 3rd TSL Mentors Meeting. The meeting was very short talking about new orientation sessions coming in the near future, how to be apply to be a tsl mentor buddy. At the end of the meeting we had a BIG PIE FIGHT (LINDENS VS TEENS) hahahahaha. In Late March there were new TSL Mentor Orientation Sessions set up for new Mentors to attend. I went along to both of them only to find there were a few there, however it was fun anyway. The new update to the Orientation Sessions was that there was a new TSL Mentors Information Pack to have, lots of new stuff.
  • In April 2008, I set up a TSL Mentors 2.0 Flickr so that Mentors could send photos to look back on the great times, experiences, in-world places and much more. Also I set up my own TSL Volunteer Wiki (this page) for people to come to for useful resouces and information about Teen Second Life, Links, Photos, Resouces, Tutorials, TSL Mentors 2.0 Program and more!
  • On June 25th 2008, we had a special guest visiting TG for a Q&A session for TSL Mentors 2.0 and the public, then the opening of the new TSL5B sims (4) that I helped with to put together to test etc. On July 3rd at 11am SLT, M Linden came to do a TSL Birthday talk about Teen Grid and it's future, there were a few TSL Mentor 2.0 notices to let people know about it.
