I am sure everyone who is familiar with NCI knows Mouse ( mouseplay ) She is involved with many things within NCI, especially teaching. Though not many of you may know this, Mouse has trouble with typing.

AK ( Alaska Udimo ) came up with a sneaky plan….

He organized for all of us to ‘chip in’ and buy Mouse ‘Dragon, Naturally Speaking’ and have it ready at her home to present to her at the end of the NCI Easter Hunt. Of course she had no idea what was happening until she was given the final egg to open at the hunt.

” I am pleased that WE, as NCI, made a good thing happen for Mousie and it was nice that so many people chipped in to help her. I am happy that it made her day and will assist her in being with us much more.”      AK

Mouse was so thrilled our gift moved her to tears, and I’m sure there were a few of us having a teary too.

“Ginger tell them that after crying for 30 minutes I got it installed and I’m IMing everybody I know just to practice with it”                                         Mouse

We get a lot of new people ask us ‘ I’m new, where do I go?’. The answer is, anywhere you like. Second Life is about having fun and enjoying what you do.  One thing you can do is take yourself on a tour by using the Destination Guide.

Here are some interesting places I found by using the Destination Guide. It’s amazing what you can find when you search.  🙂

In the last week or so I’ve noticed that the help desk in Kuula has been empty by the time morning rolls around in SLT. I really was planning on writing a cutting note about the lack of pencils and the fact that my stash of cookies is missing but I happened to be up early this morning and found a disreputable gang had taken over the help desk. I barely survived the sudden fit of giggles that overtook me.

Gatchas are the latest craze in Second Life, here’s one I found to be lots of fun.

The Secret Affair is a ‘Game of Thrones’ inspired event. Take a walk down the long hall and see what inspires you.

There are Gatcha machines to try your luck on and also exclusive items to buy.

Kuula was a bit laggy so the regulars tried dancing the chicken dance to scare it away.  –Ginger Lorakeet
