No, no, no, time it goes too fast!!

These last months have flown by, much, much too fast. It's already New Year's Eve, it can't be! I'm not ready to write 2012 instead of 2011, heck I still write 2010 occasionally!! Ah well, c'est la vie, but I still feel like someone turned my life up to speed three and forgot about it.

For awhile I've been having computer issues, crashes and refusing to start for hours, I thought it might be the graphics card failing and a week before Christmas the whole thing died on me. Turned out I was right and I went out and bought a new one, which would have been great if the PSU hadn't been too weak to handle it... yeah, didn't think to check that first.

It's now finally running smoothly again, but I've been without a computer for the entire holidays and haven't been able to play The Sims 3 or try any of the games I got for Christmas.

Well, New Year's Eve is for New Year's Resolutions so let's make one to actually manage my time in a better way than I am currently.

Augh!!

So, it seems EA borked almost all CC with the newest patch and Pets, which well, was to be expected I suppose, they did have to change a lot of coding to enable all objects for the animals. I don't think people are right to shout and cry about EA being villains because of it, of all games I've played The Sims is by far the one that is most open to modding. Still, I do think they might've been fair to give like a head's up a few months ago.

Well, I've been working on the story, but progress is slow, university is taking up a lot of time, I'd forgotten how much effort studies take. I did ace my first exam on computer game history and genres, this next one is harder though, computer systems, stuff like binary code and assembly language, which is cool and all, but I doubt I'll ever use it again.

Almost There

Well, this chapter is taking quite some time, real life has been sucking all life out of me lately. I've been absolutely sick and tired of everything and hopefully I'll get into the university course I've applied to so I can do something else for awhile.

The pictures are all done, and the chapter is finished in my head now, so hopefully after the Midsummer holidays I'll be done and my goal is to have the next chapter up on Sunday.

Why Me?!

I've been having a lot of issues with my very new computer, it keeps crashing and giving me a blue screen with BSW on it (big scary words) and I have recently had some help trying to fix it, which means I have nothing left on my computer, I will be re-installing and trying to get my game back up and running, but the problem is that the blue screen of doom still happens and I just don't feel like doing all the work of installing TS3 on this computer again before I have had another go at fixing it.

I do have a load of pictures for the next chapter and I might get around to it, but RL has been just too real recently, that and I wasted a lot of time on Dragon Age Origins I guess and also on The Sims Medieval, which was fun for a few hours but quickly started feeling like I was just following a bunch of orders.
