Lanai's 10TH YEAR Speech
Wow what a Party! Hi friend Welcome to SLE’s 10th
Anniversary and my rezzday SLebrity Yacht Party! You all look truly amazing ad I hope you are all having a fabulous time
I promise to keep my speech within a reasonable amount of
time so those ridiculously hot Chippendale’s down below don’t start to feel
lonely without me …*unravels my speech*
Where do I start summing up the past decade in Second
Life? I know it is pretty shameless right?
I guess I’ll start from day one when I arrived looking like a pastey
noob doing a penguin walk, homeless, shoeless and friendless on the grid trying
to figure out my dashboard. After that hurdle that I’m sure you all can relate,
I got it all figured out. That is when SLE’s roots began to grow…like a
relentless weed that haters gave up trying to get rid of and just let it grow
out of control.
I’m not sure if I
am still here due to an excessive Second Life addiction, the drama, a genuine
love of virtual media or meeting people from all over the world. I guess it is
a combination of all those things and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Everything that happens in SL is Inspiration for me to write or come up with
ideas.
It has certainly be an extraordinary journey with ups,
downs, twists and turns but I have arrived to this point somewhat unscathed
with a few greys I can call wisdom.. Looking back, I can say that I have more
regrets than I do proud moments being a part of this community we all call our
second home. Oh wait, what I meant was…
…… NVM blame it on the alcohol and distractions.
On a serious note, with each year that passes I have
collected a lot of memories, snapshots ,had
fun and somewhat crazy adventures. I have met so many amazing people
that I can call friends and that right there is the most valuable thing to me.
We all come here for a reason; Creativity, Socializing, Business,
Companionship, Adventure and even perhaps disabilities or limitations that
prevent us from doing things or trying something new in the real world.
I’m sure in your
time in Second Life, you learned something new about yourself or experienced
something that was just so great you couldn’t wait to log back in again and
again.
This is truly a unique place and everyone one of you is a
star in this virtual world. Each of us has a reason for being here.
What we do
contributes to the Second Life community and it affects the people we come in
contact with. We may never truly know
the person right next to us or even someone we speak to on a regular basis but
I know one thing is for certain, we are all human. We have feelings and we
should always keep that in mind when we socialize here. Not everyone is going
to see eye to eye or have the same likes. That’s a good thing. If it wasn’t for
our differences there wouldn’t be motivation to learn from each other.
It is uniquely our
world that we have created for ourselves and share with the people around us.
Today is a true testament of the possibilities. I don’t know where the future
of Second Life will take us but I am hopefully that we never lose this sense of
community and fun.
I promise to
continue to serve this community as long as I am able by sharing The SL
Enquirer with anyone who reads it or is a part of it in some way.
OK this is getting sappy and those Chippendales are
looking restless so I will wrap this ramble up by saying thank you to Team SLE
for believing in me and The SL Enquirer. It is you who truly make my vision
come to life with your writing contribution and behind the scenes help. Milae & Mackezie Abbot, thank you so much
for these lovely dresses you designed. I couldn’t decide so I had to wear both!
And lastly, I’d like to thank M.Y.
Studio Productions, The Night Theater, Chippendales of SL, our sponsors and all
of you for being here and celebrating this very special day with me.
Cheers to more years of SLE and to you all. Enjoy the rest of the evening.
