Since about a month, I was working at a club. At first it was fun, because it reminded me of the good old days when I worked at a beach club. I was only a few days or weeks old, and began working there. Those where some good times.
That’s the reason I went looking for a job in a club again, a year later. I wanted to have fun again, like I did back then.
The first week or so was great, the staff was impressed with my skills. Dancing was like second nature to me, its something you will never forget to do in SL. I should have known better in the end. Sure I made some money, but it wasn’t what I had hoped for in the end. A year has passed, I have learned many things in that time. I have grown. When I had to show up for another shift at the club, I realised I didn’t want to go. Suddenly the job had become boring. I guess it was noticable, after a while the manager came to me, to fire me…

This is me, dancing at the club, when I still had fun. Yeah, that’s right, I never danced nude.
I learned something very important. Many had told me before, but I never got it. A lot of people can do jobs that hardly takes any effort or talent. Jobs that force you to do the exact same thing every day again. It seems like an easy way to earn money. Not for me. It’s too easy, I am capable of doing more than standing on a dancepad. I know now that I need to do something that feeds me as a person. I always wanted to make SL a better place. Well… that won’t happen by dancing.
I will look deep within, find out what I truly want. A hobby and/or job that lies close to my heart. I guess I will continue to build and do art. Really, what is more important in the end? Money or satisfaction?
