The Sims Mastery

Hello viewers,

When I last left off, I was sane. My family was going smoothly, and everyone was sane, like me. Now, however, I find myself involuntarily screaming at the computer screen whenever a sim does something I don’t want him/her to do. I often have my family screaming back at me to shut the heck up. But, it’s worth it… It’s fun, and I can use it as an excuse not to go out. For example:

MOM: Hey, Jess, want to go on a walk?

ME: Can’t, Mom, getting pics for my next blog post.

MOM: Are you sure? It’s drizzling, very nice weather.

ME: Positively sure, mom.

MOM: Are you sure?

ME: Yes, mom. Definitely sure.

MOM: Sure you’re sure?

ME: Yes, I am sure with the entirety of my being.

MOM: …

And that’s how it usually goes. See, my mom is practically jumping in glee whenever she sees me because of my blog, so she can’t really argue. It gets useful. Anyway, back to whatever I was saying… We left off at a peaceful point in time. However, during the four days that I had to play and get pics, Deirdre had another baby (why me?!), Guin and Dez grew up into teens (noes), and I slowly dropped from sane to mentally unsafe. With all the simming I’ve been doing (We have a five day break from school, yay Memorial Day!), I wouldn’t be surprised if my parents would want to take me to the “Funny Farm.” >_<

Hello dear viewers,

Don’t get me wrong. I don’t mind children (that much). They just get on my nerves a little. Especially when they’re Sims 2 kids that are hardwired to complain nearly 24/7. At least Dezzy and Guin were angels (cough cough) as toddlers. Look at the happy faces full of happy happiness:

Hello hello,

I’ve been itching to post this, as Deirdre’s finally out of college! However, I told myself to wait, because if I posted it yesterday, it would throw the whole schedule plan off balance. So here it is. Basically, Deirdre graduated and she wanted to throw a party, but I was just, NO. Because the last time I threw a party, it sucked. So I just had her move back to Pleasantview, and she moved into the empty 5 x 5 lot she had to move into. She was left with 4,800 (Where are my college savings?!) and she got a new outfit and more importantly, a new LTW. Her new LTW is to graduate 3 children from college. I was about to scream, because Sims 2 college drags by so slowly! Oh well.

Howdy, Pardners,

Life’s been going well. Not too much homework, and there’s this book I really love called Twilight, I’m waiting to get the sequel. But enough about me–let’s focus on Deirdre. I was so tired last night, nearly fell asleep while playing, but I was kinda like Deirdre when she starts dancing. Her energy will get really low, and I’ll have to actually command her to go to bed. But aside form that, she’s doing well. She finally graduated from her Junior Year (yay) and is now on her final year, but let’s go back a little and overlook her junior year, because I spent a long time just trying to get through it.

It started out fine, however when the second semester began, things started getting hazardous. She fell in love with this crazy blue haired guy called Neil, and she wants to engage him, but I want to wait until after college for things like that.

Hello everyone,

In order to help prevent a problem like the crash again, I’ve decided to use my sister’s old computer for the Sims 2. My computer used to be a Windows Vista, and her old computer is an XP, so I’m kind of let down that I’m forced to do this, but if it means that my families won’t go kaboom again, I’m willing to do it. So managing Sims Mastery and playing Sims will all be registered on this CPU.

On a happier note, I got all the games and expansion packs I had installed, and downloaded a few things, as well. The game runs fine, only a tad bit slower, so I started the Legacy Challenge Version 2! It starts with Deidre Baron, a young adult sim who is eager to get out of college and begin her new life. She’s a family sim with a LTW to reach the top of the Education career. She’s a slob and hates cleaning, and she puts on this face whenever I make her clean something. It almost makes me want to cancel the action. >_< She loves to dance, and she also loves to cook. So she has some qualities that Deedee did, but she’s not exactly the same.
