Getting There...Slowly

2011-08-15T18:57:00.002-05:00

Hey guys, just thought I'd might update you on what I'm doing!

I'm currently building houses and what not for the neighborhood for my story! Now, I'm not really creative when it comes to houses so I'm trying to take my time with this and see what I could come up with! Normally I would just download houses but this time I want to see what I could do by myself! So yeah, that's going to take a little while.

I have a couple more characters I have to make also, and I need to download A LOT more stuff! But I'll get there..it'll just take more time.

Well I just want you guys to know that I'm not just being lazy, which I have in some points, but still! This story looks promising! :D

Good News!

2011-07-14T21:06:00.002-05:00

My computer is fixed! :D

The funny thing is, I was trying to get this thing to work for a long time and turns out it was something simple to do! You can only imagine how stupid I felt...lol

Anyways, I am going on a MASSIVE downloading spree at the moment, and I'm working on the neighborhood for the story!

Everything is looking up right now, I just hope I didn't jinx anything!! The story will be up soon!

Bye guys!! :D

UPDATE...well NOT really

2011-07-07T19:56:00.003-05:00

Hey guys! :D

I just wanted to tell you all my computer is somewhat being fixed. My dad is getting to it, but he can be very forgetful and I have to annoy him to death to fix it lol. But it's in the process of getting fixed!

I finished the bios for my characters that will be in my story! Well I know I'll have more characters along the way of the story but these are the main characters.

Now I could put there bios up now if you guys want me to, I won't be promoting it anywhere because simply, I don't even have pictures of what the sims will look like. Also, the blog I have is not even close to being ready but I can put them on there, you guys will just need to ask for a invitation notice to be in the blog, but I'm telling you it's not pretty!

So yeah, it's your choice if you want to know about the characters now or wait for me to be more organized in the story first.

Everything is coming along greatly, I just really hope it stays that way!!!

Where I'm Going With This...

2011-06-23T14:21:00.002-05:00

It has been a while, I know. I don't even really expect anyone to see this but if someone does then hello!

Now I know I have not put up a story at all, believe me I'm disappointed in myself for not doing that. I had planned on posting a story up starting the summer, which I was close to doing but then my hard drive crashed, which made me lose everything. After having my hard drive crash, about a week later my computer caught a virus and now my computer needs to be fixed. I don't know..I tried.

Anyways, I am still working on this story. I have my characters, I'm working on their bios now so when my computer does come back up you all have SOMETHING to look at instead of nothing. I'm hoping to have everything up by the end of July? Beginning of August? I just hope I can stand by that and not procrastinate.

Now as soon as my computer comes back my whole blog is going to be revamped. I'm even thinking about getting a new username and what not; probably going back to Slime, which was my very first username when starting going into the sims community. I hope I can get that done soon!

These are all just plans though, I don't know if I can fully promise you all that everything will be out on time or not, I still have real life to battle with. I just want you all to know that this isn't the end, I still have a strong desire to post my stories up here.

Thank you for sticking by me if you still are, which I'm pretty sure nobody but still, thank you! This summer should be promising!

As if it couldn't get any worse!

2010-02-03T17:09:00.003-05:00

So what might be good news and horrible news.

The good news is that, since I'm applying for a new high school (one of those academies and tech's), my mom said that if I get in I'll get a brand new computer! One that can actually play the sims well!

The bad news is....well I went on the downloading website where I stored my sims....and their GONE!

I don't know why or how they were gone because the last time I checked, it was fine! Now I have to make my characters over again because I just wasn't thinking when I just could have stored it all on my external hard drive!

Now all my sims have to be made from scratch again...

LESSON LEARNED: ALWAYS HAVE BACK UPS.

:(

2010-01-05T23:20:00.005-05:00

-sigh-

I remember when I took this picture, when my laptop for my sims wouldn't be so....messed up.

Haven't posted in a while, I know that!

I broke my desktop computer, YES another one...

Broke it a few weeks ago, and that means no sims again basically I think.

It's almost been 2 years since I haven't been able to play..isn't that crazy? But I've been depending on my parents to much and I know they've been busy but I'm tired of waiting now! I want the stuff so I can finally PLAY! and write stories, it's about time!

So this year, I WILL be putting this story up, nothing can stop me, I really want to do this! So expect it this year...I don't know when, or how, but take my word, I WILL have this story out, this year!

I have so many ideas for it and I just can't wait. I tried putting the game on my laptop but my laptop is just being stupid. After I uninstalled the Sims 2 before, they said I still haven't uninstalled all the expansion packs...and I did!!

So It's either I'm going to bug my parents more, or I'm going to get it on this laptop because I really want this whole thing done right now...I really do...

So like I'm saying, EXPECT the story!

Expect it...

The Plan!!

2009-11-03T20:48:00.002-05:00

-Sigh-

So I tried turning on my computer today, and it won't turn on.

I tried many ways and it just WON'T.

So as my dad is going to fix that and what not, I thought of a plan.

Well I was thinking maybe I could try and put the sims on my laptop again, and maybe just make some like, short stories or something. I always wanted to participate in Simfic50.

I don't know yet, but it's a thought!

What do you guys think?

Getting closer...

2009-10-05T19:50:00.002-05:00

Well the computer is fixed and everything, I should know, I'm typing on it right now!

I downloaded the sims and everything on it but something strange is with my sims...the tan skin is like an orange color...I think it has something to do with the graphics card.

So my mom is going to get another graphics card for me since this is an old one I'm guessing or one that isn't compatible with the sims.

It may not work entirely yet but it's a start! :D

At least the game works fine with out any trouble and I won't have to worry about anything for a little while.

Anyways I just wanted to tell you guys the good news and say the computer is FINALLY fixed :D

YAY!

Now let's work on getting the sims to cooperate...

Good News....I Think

2009-09-20T17:51:00.003-05:00

My dad has FINALLY decided to try and fix my computer after ignoring the fact that it has to be fixed from a while now. I told him I wanted it done today and he said he'll try but I'll make sure he does! I really want this to happen, it's like 1 and a half years since the incident! I really, really want to start but he just keeps on holding me back!

I will try to get this done by today and I will try to get my story out next month but NO PROMISES.

But hopefully it'll happen next month!

Starting Personal Blog

2009-07-07T21:36:00.002-05:00

Yes, you saw right, I have my own personal blog, like a journal.

I'm going to try to keep on it everyday updating my life for you guys! A lot of stuff goes on with my and I'm giving you guys the opportunity to read it!

ONE THING THOUGH: It will be private, so you have to ask me for permission in order to have a look.

I have A LOT of stuff to vent about, lol! And it would be great if you guys were my audience!

Just leave me a comment or something if you want to get in!

Thank you!!

Bye guys!

Can I EVER catch a break?

2009-06-08T15:24:00.003-05:00

Seriously this is just getting annoying.

My laptop won't work, when it was completely fine this morning! Like seriously are computers like, allergic to me!?

My sims game was having a glitch on the laptop too, but I uninstalled it for the Sims 3 that WON'T EVEN WORK!

Seriously even when I go into the game for about 5 minutes it crashes my laptop, I emailed Customer Support and they gave my some crap that I don't have the minimal requirements for the game, where I check a game performance thing and it says I have the right requirements! Then they give me this UNHELPFUL link to see what I can do to make the game work on my laptop, 17 out of more then 300 found it helpful, so you know it's worth poop! I emailed them again yesterday and I'm still waiting for response!

After that a few days later my baby sister got her way into my laptop and messed up two of my keys, one of them in which I need! The space bar! She messed with it, and under it, like the actual button and everything! So I can't even go on it if I want to type something, I'm on my mom's laptop at the moment.

But you know, finding out my laptop won't work just takes the cake! Like I can turn it on and type my password in and stuff, but when I go to my main screen, the screen is pitch black with just the mouse cursor.

When will my bad luck ever end!? I can't take it ANYMORE!!

Ugh!

Alive....

2009-04-20T14:45:00.003-05:00

Hey guys, I'm still alive, lol! :D

I've been busy with school, and fixing my sims!

Some random glitch is happening it goes all weird when ever I try to place furniture down and I can't even put up windows!!

So I'm trying to fix that.......

Maybe I'll start my own personal blog just like a journal or something, I have a lot to vent out!

Maybe, so stay tuned for that!

EDIT: ALL CHARS. OF CH. 1 ARE UP!

2009-02-10T18:19:00.014-05:00

HTH! :D

Got the laptop!

2009-01-15T19:46:00.000-05:00

I got another laptop! :D

This time it's better, it's a 20 gig with an updated graphics card so it will be good!

I think it's the closing of my computer problems!

I think the book can finally close! :D

FINALLY!!!, LOL! :D

Untold Secrets being redone!

2009-01-11T09:53:00.002-05:00

So I think in the last post I told you guys that I'm going to redo 'Untold Secrets' because I think my writing has been done!

So I blocked you guys out of the 'Untold Secrets' blog until everything is set up!

One step forward two steps back!!

2009-01-01T13:44:00.003-05:00

Alright looks like I'm up to bad news again!

My new computer I got won't work!

And my baby sister peed on my laptop, so that won't work either!

Ugh, this is so aggravating!

Now I have to wait to get another laptop (this time it will be a gaming laptop)!

I was so excited now I have to wait!

And in other news, I'm going to be redoing 'Untold Secrets'!

I think ever since my computer problems with the sims my writing has gotten better, and I just want to redo the story!

So everything will be changing soon!

And I'm also going to be putting up a new story called 'Black Beauty' I've been planning this story for basically a year!

Anyways, things will have to be on hold again though!

But it's the new year so maybe there will be high hopes for my computer problems and nothing won't happen to me!

Oh, and......

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

EXTREMELY GOOD NEWS!

2008-12-26T10:07:00.001-05:00

Well the hard drive didn't work so next up is the memory card! And if that doesn't work we're going to try for a graphics card! So much stuff and money, so that's why it's taking me a while to get my story back up and running!
