realism!

why would I want to play a realistic game, when I can step outside my door, for realism every minute of the day, the sims have helped me recover from major surgeries and have made me happy that it's not real. And I wasn't gonna buy SN anyways, but now that I've bought the game and given it a play or two, I generally think it's a fun game, though with minor glitches and bugs, but ALL games have minor glitches and bugs, how else are EA supposed to fix the bugs or glitches if there aren't any in the first place, that's why WE are the game testers-WE/Consumers play these games and WE test them for bugs and glitches, NOT them, WE do!

Do we have a curse in our family????

Ya know when it pours it rains, and when it rains', it pours, it's never a dull moment in my family at the moment with health issues. I just gotten over a major part of my life-cancer, and now my mum has high calcium in her bones, if the emergency staff at the hospital doesn't lower her calcium by Monday next week, there's a slight chance that one of her kidney's may fail or she may have blood cancer, either way, it's not good news at the moment, so I'm at the hospital for my mum as long as possible before I break down with stress, I'm supposed to be recovering, and it ain't gonna happen this weekend. Is there such a curse of so much bad health on our family?, I mean, Bradley, my nephew became ill just as he was only 2wks old, spent 2months in hospital, then I got diagnosed with cancer last November, my 16yr old neice has laryngitis, now my mum's in hospital for a serious blood disorder, what have we done to deserve such a curse? honestly, it's just never ending in our family!

I'm still waiting!!! and other stuff!

It's been a very long wait for games and I've just counted from the calender, it's 63 days until Sims 3 Seasons Ep comes, and I'm still waiting for RockStar to announce when Grand Theft Auto 5 is coming out too, they haven't given fans the release date yet, come on!! guys, stop fart-arsing around and get on with announcing the release date!!!! it's killing us/we with anticipation!!!! ya giving us screenshots and video's to make us/we drool, c'mon guys, enough is enough, we want this game out now!!!!

and another rumour, The Sims 3 University!! woot, woot, if this is to become true, I is gonna be a happy little vegemite...I mean Midnightpearl's gonna be a happy little flowermite, if this is to be true!! I loved Sims 2 version of University, and I really hope EA makes this version better than Sims 2, since now we have the open world, this may or may not work for some or many computers, The Sims 3 open world has worked so far, with an exception of minor glitches and bugs, but not every game is 100% perfect, so therefore not every computer runs smooth 100% either, it's just mainly the person(human) doesn't know how to operate it!!! Lol! :)

Me, in general, I'm taking each day slowly for recovery, some days I have good days and some are generally bad, like today, for example, I had an attitude, like I don't care attitude, but possible tomorrow, I have an non attitude day, but in general my mood goes south if I haven't had much to sleep either, just like the moodlet in Sims 3, their moodlet shows that their attitude goes sounth if ya don't get them to bed soon, this was like me today at lunch time, so I needed to say bye to mum, and hello to pillow, so now I'm a little better than lunch time, with a medium full belly, I'm quite content but still sleepy.

Talk to all of ya soon!

Cheers! :)

Thankyou!

Congratulations to MidnightPearl – one of the Oz contingent so over-represented within the Sims world (seriously, what is it about Australia and Sims 3? Is it the novelty of a world where none of the animals are poisonous, psychotic, or poisonous and psychotic?) and one of the genuinely nicest and most enthusiastic Simmers of the whole community – who has been battling illness after illness over the last few years (including a hole in the heart and cancer) but still kept up her Simming to all throughout her battles.




and thankyou for all your kind words, I very much appreciate it! Yes I have been on a fast moving rollercoaster ride, and FINALLY was able to get off it and start living again with my life! Seriously I don't know how I did this, I've got a wonderful support network with my family and friends and a wonderful network with my virtual friends all over the world, and with just 1 simmer that I speak to 2-3 times per week via emails, I'm very grateful to have a beautiful friendship with her, it's not just all about simming, it's all about everything else too!

hugs to TheMaresNest and hugs to my virtual friend whom, she knows who she is! I'm very grateful! thankyou! :)

Cheers!

Time to Party!!!!!

I'm very happy right now, I have wonderful news to share to my fellow simmers, I just got the news I've been waiting for, I am Cancer Free!! no more tumors, no cancer, no more radiation therapy, no more trips to the hospital for cancer treatment-NO MORE!!!!! I'm very happy and so are my family too, we've been on a rollercoaster from hell over 8months and I'm still in recovery though, taking each day slow at the moment to recover, time to celebrate, time to party!!! I also wish to thank my fellow simmers for all the prayers and wellwishes for me to get well, and been given gifts to perk me up with a smile of gratitude-thankyou, and also wish to say thankyou to EA and Sims 3, for making an awesome game to help me recover quickly from my cancer and my treatment, if this didn't exist, i have no idea what my recovery would've been like. And thankyou for the prayers for my little nephew Bradley, he's doing well now. It's now time to party!!!


Cheers!! MidnightPearl! :):) xoxo

Thoughts on Sims 4

Sims 4 can wait for me, I'll still play Sims 3 until I can afford another super computer and need loads more money to afford both, so Sims 3 is gonna be played for another 4yrs by me.
If Sims 4 had the (create a pattern) in the game like TS3 has got and more sliders, pimples and dimples etc, scars and scratches etc, and more animation of hair flow and wind flow thru the windows, abilty to open and close windows/curtains etc, ability to mow the lawn when the grass grows, option to recolour roofs, the animation and graphics needs to WOW me over to get Sims 4  when it's released, I highly doubt this will happen yet! :)

It's a Boy!!!!

My sister-in-law Fiona gave birth to a bubbly bouncing baby boy named Bradley Scott. Congratualtions Fiona and Craig, a brother for Daniel and Emmy!!! I'm an Aunty 12 times:

Karen (my sis) has two children-Carmine and Adrianna
Wayne(brother 1) has 3 children-David, Andrew Michael
Mark(brother 2) has 3 children-Kylie, Danielle and Mark
Craig(brother 3) has 4 children-Jahden, Daniel, Emmy and now Bradley

8 Nephews and 4 Nieces=12

well, my family won't see me give birth any time soon or in the near future, I've had so much of medical crap, to turn me off being a parent, I mean, what if-say I give birth to a son or daughter, I'd be worried that my child was born with a hole in their heart, or tumors in the chest or heart, I'd be constent attending hospital appointments for my child, when I've already been through it as an adult, it'll be deja vu-no thanks!

I mean, being 38yrs old is the perfect time to become a parent, but to me, it's life-changing but it will have a huge impact on my financial status, and I wouldn't be giving birth for the sake of the $5000 grant from Centerlink(like some do)-sorry not interested at all. If I wanted to have children, then I should've had them when I was in my 20's, not now, with what I've been thru.

Anyways, enough talk about me, it's all about Bradley Scott coming into this world! Can't wait to hold you and give you a kiss. :)

Cheers for now!

Thanks for viewing and reading! :)
