Allie Jurassic's last adventure of the week


So, I am going on vacation tomorrow and will be unable to access Second Life for a week! What will Allie Jurassic do without me?

In my final adventure of the week, I decided to find something to assign my students to do in their Second Lives. I discovered on the "mainland," a pavilion called Games. What better way to get students interested? Well, one can sit down and play chess. Educational and fun! Get those logic thinking skills whirring! Unfortunately no one wanted to play chess with me, although I didn't try particularly hard. Here I am, alone at my chess table, having somehow moved a pawn. (And wearing my new cowboy hat and jeans and sweater outfit, you may note.)

Then, anticipating my students' more probable inclinations, I went to a beach party that I got a free invite to off of the newcomers' info board. It seems to be nighttime in that part of the Second Life universe, though, and not that many people were out partying. Plus I wasn't ready to try the challenging maneuver of putting my bathing suit on. So I retreated to some sort of tree house structure, where I acquired the new item "fruit platter," which I was instructed to "wear to begin eating!" Indeed.

So, it's goodbye for now, but I'll spend my vacation thinking of new adventures (and more non-sketchy interactions) for Allie Jurassic!
