It's a love/hate relationship.

Gosh, I'm just looking at my timetable for this school year and I feel it's going to be a tough year. The school have decided to do the tough GCSE work and exams this year, giving us less to do next year. I have to buy  7 folders this year! ( History, Drama, R.E, Biology, Physics, Chemistry, and posssibly Welsh). Fortuantly  my English teacher has saved money and another folder by deciding to make us write all of our work on paper, then sticking it in a box. And our corsework is done in school, under exam rules, and then my English teacher puts it in a safe. Crazy, isn't it? I'm not sure if the coursework for other lessons is done in school, but I think it is.

Anyway, back to the timetable. Because I have taken Double Science, I've got 7 lessons of science per week. 2 Chemistry, 2 Physics (in a double lesson - oh please!) and 2 Biology. The extra lesson is either Physics, Chemistry or Biology. It sorta goes in a rota. This week, I had Physics. Next week, it'll be Chemistry. The week after that, I'll have biology, and then it goes back to Physics again the next week.

But, on the bright side, I have 3 lessons of Drama per week, 3 R.E and 3 History, and 4 English. Yay!

I'd like to know what you have chosen if you are in year 10 or 11 doing your GCSE'S. Or if you are in university, what are you studying? And even if you aren't a student, if you could go to college or school again, what would you study?

My disspearings.

Hi, I've noticed I haven't been simming for a while, and this is the honest truth. I went on me hols for two weeks in the first two weeks of August, then I was shipped down to my aunt's to spend my birthday down in Cambridge. And then I return home, have to buy my backpack and other school stuff (I was skint until me birthdays which is on the 28th) and then have to return to the hell we call school. So I've beeen a busy bee. And the week inbetween the holiday and Cambridge, I just couldn't be arsed to sim, I just wanted to meet up with my mates becuase my friend dislocated her knee before the summer break and she no longer had to use her crutches since that week.

Anyway, I might go simming today, unless my little sister kicks me off the computer again to go on bloody facebook. (This is what I despise about having a sister the same height as you.)

P.I.(E)

Haha, just random thing off The Simpsons, and a episode with Cheif Wiggum. So that explains the title. I was mucking around with my P.I sim, Freya, and wanted to show some pics.


First, Freya interviewed this woman on when somone kicked over her garden gnome. (*rolls eyes*)


Oh , and Twinbrook has terrible fasion sense. I'm glad Tiffany's sorting these out.


In her snazzy undercover uniform, she searches for evidence...



In trash. She finds some shoes that are all worn out, and goes to confront this dude, who's the womans neighbour.



Then man confesses, and the job is done.


And tells the woman that the suspect is guilty. She cheers and I think that Twinbrook need a thousand Trinny and Susannah's to sort this one out.



At night, there is a new job, under the cover of nightfall.



Something dreadful has happened, the local rockstar might have gossiped about the beautiful lady here on the internet! :O (note sarcasm).



So now she has to break into the rockstars home to hack into his computer. Lovely.

Oh and also, Freya and her brother, Frank are on the exchange, as well as Tiffany.

Here's the linkages. 

Meet The Richies.

Okay, I've been making some new sims, and yes I know, the last name ain't exactly original. And most of the household don't have that name. This is how it goes. Nicola Richie, a woman who's high in her business and hoping to go higher. She is a grumpy snob who likes cooking and romantics and is very rich. She has recently moved in with her boyfriend Leo. She despises Leo's daughter Katie and wants her out of the house the minuite she's old enough to leave.


Leo Lanstrom is a very confident party animal who can schmooze himself into any promotion and is an amazing kisser. He is also slightly snobbish, just like Nicola. Some think the only reason Leo coupled with Nicola is so that he would be richer, but deep down, Leo does like her. But will the money make him greedy?



Finally, there is Katie Lanstom, the daughter of Leo. She is a adventurous party animal, who has a problem for stealing, and is rather insane.  She never wanted to move in with her father and his new girlfriend, but she had no where else to stay, as her father brought her up himself. Will she provoke Nicola so much she might have to leave home as a teen?


Here's the link if anybody is interested. The upload image changer failed on me and there's no picture, but this is how they look.

Temptations Update (No pics)

Hello, I know I haven't been updating in god knows how long, and for 3 little reasons.
1) Been busy packing and such for my holiday on the 2nd of August to the 16th.
2) Been forgetting to update blog and play Sims,
3) And every single time I do remember, my sister kicks me off the computer so she can go on Facebook (rolls eyes).

So here's my update of Temptations, right here, on the blog, and there's no pics because I've been to busy to get the pictures, sorry! But you've seen what the characters look like anyway so it doesn't really matter.


As Abigail woke up that morning, feeling the touch of her deadly husband, the Grim Reaper, she felt a tiny stab of guilt go through her. After all, the Reaper cared for her and touched her soul with his kind words, even if those words were "I would destroy all of the human race for you." , and she was stabbing him in the back without him even knowing it. She was, in fact, letting their son be raised by a paid teenager whilst she made love with another man. But the stab was soon healed, and she leaped out of bed, hearing Melvin's cries. She decided that she had to pick him up and pay attention to his needs, as she had to keep up appearances so her husband didn't suspect anything.
 That morning, as Grim got ready for work, Abigail prepared breakfast for him whilst carrying Melvin in her arms. Melvin wailed until she put him down in his chair. Melvin wailed because he didn't trust his mother. As Grim came into the kitchen, everything appeared like a usual happy family. Abigail making some waffles perfectly, appearing as the mother, who was a great cook and stayed at home as Grim kisses Abigail on the cheek and ruffles up his son's hair (who was eating his breakfast messily) and sits down as his breakfast is served to him. His son smiles at his father and everything appears normal. This was why Grim never suspected everything. On the appearance, there was never anything to suspect.
 Later on, as Grim was busy working, he was sent out of work for a Important Meeting with a stranger. This beautiful ginger stranger sat with him in the Bistro during his lunch break, giving him an offer he couldn't refuse.
"My name is Mellisa Frenchman, and I am the head of Death Nations. I've heard of your brilliant work," she flattered, "and I would like to hire you to rid of dying mortals across all the worlds Death Nations own. This would give you an amazing pay, but you'd be working for very long shifts each day. Is that fine by you, Mr Reaper?" Her smile and strong tone made him accept. The words flew round his mind "Amazing pay.. brilliant work..." he envisioned a home that his family lived in, where Abigail could relax in a mansion, caring for her son then having a job she loved. And then Melvin could go to Evil University and study any evil subject he wishes. Then he can retire young and live the rest of his life happily destroying the happiness of others. He shook her hand, and the deep red lips of Monica Kallop twisted upwards as her part of Alice's plan was complete, and completed perfectly.

  *************************************************************************

Meanwhile, Alice managed to find James sitting alone, by the top lake, near the waterfall. His sorrow was being emptied through throwing stones violently into the lake, as Alice slowly crept behind him.
"James." James turned to face Alice. His eyes were red with tears and anger. Alice put his arm around him.
"I just cannot believe this would happen. I thought she loved me. But she doesn't." James lifted Alice's arm and looked for something else to throw.
"She doesn't care..." Alice said apologetically. "I'm very sorry, James, to confront you with this, but how could you be such a fool? This is why vampires only mates are vampires. You just don't "love" other species. It's just not going to happen. And especially one that already has a mate? Sorry, James, but she'll never leave him for you. Remember what I read in her mind last night? She decided that this had to end. She is going to end the affair... especially after.." The lies came off her tongue very simply.
"Please, Alice, stop. I don't want graphic details of how she decided it after making love to her husband. It just makes me jealous and angry." The anger rised then. "HOW COULD SHE CHOOSE HIM?!" James roared, grabbing Alice, shaking her. Alice pushed him back, sending him flying across the diameter of the lake. She ran towards him over the water, sending thousands of droplets of water behind her.
James lay on the grass limply, barley any strength in him left to breathe. Alice knew what was wrong instantly, and reached into her backpack.
"You haven't had any blood, now have you?! All those bodies that are dead on the ground, you haven't fed on them have you?! You done all this out of anger, haven't YOU?!" Alice said sternly. Even though she obviously wasn't Little Miss Good, she knew it was wrong to just slaughter people without feeding on them or taking revenge on them.
James did nothing but weakly nod three times, to answer "Yes" to every question.
 She quickly grabbed a blood bag, tore it open and handed it to James. "Drink." was the only word she commanded. There was a silence between the two as James drank the blood, as neither of them knew if he would recover. A few minutes later, the strength came back to James and he sat up and said thanks to Alice. If she wasn't there, who knows what would have happened to him. He felt the trust he felt for Alice increasing and thanked her for not feeling sorry for him.
"Don't worry James, I don't feel sorry for people who it is their own fault for being foolish." It was a harsh comment, but harsh truth was what he needed know. Even though that was the only part of truth that she had spoke of the entire day to James.
 The mobile phone in his pocket began ringing. He took it out, glancing at the words written on it. Abigail is calling. He glanced at it for a final second, responded to nod that Alice gave, and threw the ringing phone into the lake.

    *************************************************************************

Back at the Reaper residence, Abigail sighs as her call to James is ignored again. Giving up, she was about to leave the house and look for him, but Grim entered a second too soon. Kissing Abigail, he declares he has amazing news. Sarcastically, Abigail felt that this was a insane piece of news, as he usually goes on about, but this time, he declared his promotion, his pay increase and longer shifts.
Abigail smiles but the thoughts in her head are vicious. James is ignoring me. Grim is working longer. This means I'm open to Alice!

And that's Chapter 3. I really hope it was worth the wait, and any feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Imma 60's rebel...

Hehe. I'm doing a sponsered walk soon, and imma be a hippie, or as my History teacher told me mate "A Sixties Rebel" ! It's fancy dress. This is just a short and silly post, sorry. I think I'll be a bit more random as well as posting new sims, updating Temptations, and playing Ambitions. It 'cos it's what you wanted, so I'll be handing it out to you. :]

So I'll finish this post with some lyrics with a twist... "Imma be, Imma Be, Imma, Imma , Imma Be, I'm a wasp!" :] Toodles.

Ambitions stuffs...

I know I'm a bit behind on the Ambitions craze, but I'm such in loves with it, I wanna show off a few piccies of my new stylist sim.

Her name is Tiffany Pier, her traits are Dramatic, Mean - Spirited (I wanna do a horrible makeover do someone - muahaha) Inappropriate, Virtuoso, and Artistic.


Nothings like getting a tatoo in a long sleeved tee, eh?


After getting a tatoo, I begin Tiffany's work as a stylist. I was planning on doing an awful makeover, but I felt so sorry on how he looked now, there's no way I could make it worse.

So I gave him a good makeover. But the next one will be a disaster! Muhahaha! >:]

Happy Fathers Day!

Hapy fathers day, to every dad out there! From the Grim Reaper in my game, to the real life dads who work hard. My dad is down at Devon fishing at the moment, so he's been spending his day traveling.

Which is the best sim-dad in your game? Mines the Grim Reaper. He cares so much for his little evil child. :]

Taste of Ambitions.

I never knew TS3's latest update included tattoos even if you didn't have Ambitions! (I'm liking this update - lots) I was in CAS, as you do, and spotted the tattoos. I put some on my simself to show you.


(Pink Plumbob - heehee, Jess I was thinking of you when I did this tattoo. :] )

I'm hopefully getting Ambitions tomorrow. Yippee!

I'm also still playing my Apocalypse, and strangely, looking out the windows, the view is green (but the ground is definitely sand!)


I likes it though.

Back to simming. :)

I have finally fixed my launcher, turns out WA updated but TS3 didn't. So back to simming, I'll update soon on my simming.

Also, has anyone heard Ke$ha's Your Love Is My Drug? On the end of the video, Ke$ha says "I like your beard." And my friend said that she would have a curly ginger beard with a sandwich toaster in it if she could.

So I leave you with this question - If you could have any beard you wanted, what would it be? :]

Happy Shmappy :)

Yes I've been a happy chappy recently, becuasde I got to go to a Lloyd Daniels concert (the blonde welshy dude who was in X Factor this year) and it was amazing! 2 other acts came on before him, which was welsh band Baker Wicked (not Barker Wicked which I acidently called them 5 times) and this Lady GaGa impressionist. She was welsh too. Anyway, we got to meet Lloyd and get an autograph! Yipee!
My friends are HUGE fans of his, and evrery video I took, I could hear my very screamy friend Emily screaming! Haha! Good times.

On the launcher situation, I'm still stuck. A uninsatllation seems likelier and likelier (is that even a word? Proabably not) Am going to check the forums to see if they're up and I can post. I've resorted to playing Sims and Sims 2 on my PS2. It gave me a right blast from the past.


Just a question, does anyone know how to get into TS3 without using the launcher? I've tried AutoPlay and that never comes up when I click run. Thanks if you can help.

Thursday 3 June 2010

Oh, hello again, trouble page!

Argh, it's Simmy McTroublePage again. Clicking onto the forums offline, I saw the forum page, thinking it was finally fixed. And logging in, I come across the trouble page again. But reading posts in the forum when I was offline, people were complaining about the latest patch to come with Ambitions. Is it me, or have the EA peeps have closed down the forums to stop it being overun with people with problems becuase of a glitchy patch? Becuase I didn't get a message from the Guru's about a maintinence. >:[

Oh for the love of crap!

Right, I need a tech person or anyone with answers to help me please, because my launcher is screwed. (Okay, bits of it were already broken, but now I can't even click it off or get into my game.) >:[

It started when I updated from the launcher, and everything was fine during the update, and then I clicked finish. Then I clicked the Sims 3 icon to get the launcher up. In the gap of clicking the icon to the actual launcher a EA thing came up and I clicked continue. After that, my launcher finally appeared, I got given this lovely message. It says "Your The Sims 3 Base Game is incompatible with the current Sims 3 Expansion Pack. Please update your game via the game launcher." I click OK, but nothing loads.  It looks just like the below picture, but without the message. I place my mouse over it and it's got the Vista loading icon. I've put both WA and TS3 base in the CD-rom to see if any of them work.  If you can help, thank you very much.

Lack Of Posting

Hey, sorry I haven't been posting recently, I've been going through a stage of being bored with the Sims. I know, terrible, but it happens with me, sadly. Life comes back and I notice what I've been missing. So after a break from The Sims, I think I'm coming back.

I cannot wait for Ambitions! Haven't payed my smackaroonies for it yet (you're proabably thinking WTF at me now), becuase I'm skintos, and plus I wanna see if it's a load of EA Epic Fails which I will never play again, (just like WA - It's going on eBay soon, methinks) or just plain amazing. I'm 99.9% sure it's gonna be brilliant, but I like to make sure and see what peeps are saying about it.

I thinks now I'm gonna play and get on with a couple of projectos, (The Apocalypse, Temptations, and my planned Scouting For Girls Simselves), and if I get far enough on 'em, I'll update.

Toodles!

The flush of disaster...

Since I'm getting bored with TS3 at the moment, I decided to do a really hard challenge, then I remembered the Apocalypse challenge. If anyone has never heard of the Apocalypse Challenge, this is how it is.It starts when at half time in the American Superbowl, when everyone goes to the loo and flushes it. Of course, with so many toilets being flushed at the same time, something's gonna happen. And what happens is three power plants melt down, causing toxic devastation. The ground is toxic, so nothing grows, the air is toxic, so people get weaker, and health, food and technology have taken a turn for the far, far worse. Your founder is in college at the time, but when they move to the town, they face HUGE challenges, and lots of restrictions.

My founder is the lovely Roxie Gravity, a sim I made a while ago. I'm gonna look at this on her perspective.

I stand here, my mouth feels like it going to drop to the floor, but I don't think I wanna do that. Breathing this toxic air through my nose is bad enough, I don't want to feel like I'm tasting it too. The dry, dry sand wouldn't ever be able to keep a plant alive in it, so that's a resource of food I cannot rely on. My home is this plot of land, and I must make shelter before dark.
I want to run, run away so far from this barren land. But I cannot, becuase I cannot afford to leave. But I still run, run to the shores of the island I must make my home. My long wavy hair sweeps side to side as I sprint. Maybe the shores and the sea air smell better than it does deeper into the land.

The shores have a slightly better smell, though it does not defeat the stench of toxic fumes from the power plants. Realising I have nothing to eat tonight, I pull my father's fishing rod out and begin to cast. My father gave this to me before he passed away when I was in college.


The pressure was on, for I had no fishing skills, the only thing I knew about this sport was what my father taught me as a child, though I had took no interest. Now I needed was just to remember what I learnt. It was this, or  they could be no meal for tonight.


I catch, but the catch is small. It would barley create a mouthful after cooking this! I take it anyway, so I can eat tonight. I also caught two the same, and I am rather tired after the session. Oh my, the toxic air is making me weak already!

Ignoring my fears, I head back to the front of my wasteland "home" and look for a job in the newspaper. There is one for the culinary career, and I take it right away. But it seems if I miss one day of work, I'll be jobless....

I was gonna make a house, but it needs to be on pillars, and I can't find them. Does anyone know where they are kept?


If you also would like to do an Apocalypse Challenge, here's the link to the rules. http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/72978.page

And if you would like the world I used to create my challenge, here's a link to that too.

One last thing. Since I am not allowed to make spouses for my Apocalypse, would anyone like to surrender one of their male sims for my apocalypse? Thanks.

Is it a bird, is it a plane?

Nooo, it's EARTH DUDE and KATRINA CLAW!

Yes, I made some Superheros. Wanna see?
Good, good.

First up is Earth Dude (Christian Kallendo)! He helps stop global warming by using his laser beam (Eco-friendly laser beam)  to destroy all the CO2 by factories! Teehee.


Next is Katrina Claw. Cat girl, la de da, you know what she does and stuffs. This is a quick update becuase my hand hurts becuase I just fell down the stairs, and quite a bit of the pressure was on my right thumb.


Just a evil looking picture of my simself to amuse you. I'm not vain, if you think by seeing all my simself pictures, she just makes funny faces.

:)

Va Va Voom!

Been downloading some new stuff when I came across this GORGEOUS hair by Peggy. So of course I downloaded it. (But not from Peggy, from someplace else) So I decided to stick it on my simself, and ended up with more volume than I expected. But I still love it, and it's a shock that these hairs are gorgeous becuse of the hair tumors and disatsters she's put on there.



I also loves this one.


And this one.

Eeps I loves my CC, especially now since I discovered you can use Winrar after your trail unlike WinZip. Woohoo! Let the CC fest re begin!

Sorry something random, so let's make this post gave a purpose by putting a picture of Scouting For Girls on it.
 

Does anyones know if theres any hair similar to Greg's (the one on the left with the blue T-Shirt) hair? The only curly male hair I've found is short. I'm thinking of making their sim versions. (Bummer that theres no keyboard, drum or base otherwise I could have made them do concerts in the sim world.) Thankies!

Simmies lost in the launcher cosmos...

I hate my launcher atm, it won't let me upload my simmies!

Evidence Right Here, when I tried to upload my newest sim, Roxie:



It didn't upload Ginger either... I deeply thinks it does its job when it feels like it.

This is Roxie, for those who'd like to see her.








And I've noticed that Abi has turned into a right poser now...

When she's not making this face....




Teehee. Comments on my sim, launcher problemos, or Abi ar aprecciated. :D
