		<description>ADD: I *do* however, have a minor obsession about the lack of comments! I am known to complain to friends (who I know are reading my blog) that they haven't commented, and bug them to say something in my comments box :P</description>

		<description>I used to... when I first started blogging in mid-2002 (RL personal blog). Now I don't anymore lol. I update 3 blogs regularly, including my SL blog, and they all have different "audiences" so I don't obsess about stats and readership anymore ;)</description>

		<description>@ Siddean

I am glad you are staying a mile away from drama. It isn't great, but honestly sometimes it's completely unavoidable.

@ Strawberry

*giggles* I would love to join you for belly dancing!

@ Iris

Will do, it's just hard to do so when everyone's talking about it.

@ Lolaa

Ah I am sorry that sometimes you do regret making an SL account, I only regret it for the drama. And yes most people make it bearable ;) 

Like you guys of course!

		<description>I understand exactly how you feel. When I took little break from SL to work more on school and moving, I was surprised how relaxed I was. SL drama seems to happen every single day. I try to avoid it the best way I can, which is visiting awesome sims, taking pictures, retail therapy (never fails), and blogging once in awhile. The sad part is that some people live for internet drama. They all should be shot and survivors will be shot again. *Coughs*

But to answer your question, some times I do regret making a SL account. But intelligent and outgoing people make it bearable.</description>

		<description> The drama gets far too overwhelming at times. You've just got to try to keep a level head above the fray and look at the facts. You can have your own opinion and no one has to agree with you. At least, that's how I always got through it. The first one's always the worst, love.</description>

		<description>I agree with Siddean.  I don't get involved with SL Drama, lord knows there's enough of it wherever you go.  Most of it doesn't really affect me in any way.

I spend most of my time belly dancing, buying pretty colorful clothes and taking pics as I go along.  

Who needs meds when you got dancing?  You should just relax and come belly dancing with me some time.  It'll be fun! :)</description>

		<description>*hug* I have my own opinions on this Minnu&#124;vs&#124;Danae debacle which I have shared with few people, but I'm really just waiting for some kind of resolution.

SL is full of drama, some people seek it out, others, like me, sit back and observe to see how it all pans out.  I think you should just continue to shop and write and chat and do all those things you were doing before, that make SL fun for you.  Getting involved in drama kills the enjoyment for me, which is why I don't do it.  

As to your question, I do not regret entering SL a year ago, I wish I had logged on 2 years ago infact.  I enjoy it immensely, I have met some wonderful and hilarious people who have enriched my SLife in so many ways, and I have finally found a consistently enjoyable outlet for my creative juices.  Even with all the stress, lag, client crashes, asset server weirdness, drama, it's still totally worth it!</description>

		<description>@ Everyone

Sorry for the late response. O.O SCD has kept me busy lately with other business! However I thank you all for your comments, I honestly think that SL CAN be a small world, and you've all made very interesting points.

		<description>Hello All,
I agree that if you talk at length with some of your friends you will find how much you may have in more common than you think.  I have met people who ended up being known to me in RL.  So it is really imteresting.  Great Post!
