guessing game

hi :D guess what!? today i have the whole day off! i'm not really sure what to do with my time. it's funny i can't really allow myself to be completely lazy even though i can be... i need to get something accomplished in order to feel good about myself. even though it's annoying sometimes... i'm thinking it's probably a good quality.

i had an idea... you know how sometime we play the age game in RL? well the other day I was looking at my avatar trying to figure out how old she is. that got me to wondering... what kind of age gaps do we have with our avatars. are we subconsciously choosing skins that look a certain age, or is it a conscious decision? i think my avatar looks about 25 years old... would you agree? i'm 29 in RL... no one has ever guessed my age right. most people think i am anywhere from 18 to 25. that makes me happy :D

ok so anyways... how old do you think your avatar is and compare it to your age. comment or don't, either way i think it's a fun exercise of self exploration. :)

  1. Interesting idea! I would say about the same for Cerrie, mid to late 20's. I think that has to do with skin though and I tend to hop around alot in that category. As for the lady behind the av I'm in my mid 30's and I'm also blessed with that hard to guess age thing. People can never believe it when I tell them how old I am.
    I just started reading your blog Ophelia and I'm loving your style!
