Happy Birthday, May 2028

Eve and Gabriel have just met with Dr Williams and have gotten the first glimpse of their baby on the ultrasound. They weren't actively trying to get pregnant but they weren't exactly actively trying not to get pregnant either. They both agree that it's nice that Drake and his sibling - who is due in November - won't have a huge age difference. They also agree that it's time to really start looking for a house because the apartment is getting a bit small for them with the addition of another baby.

You are the sunshine of my life

 Round 17: April 2028

Stephen Marlowe and Kaitlyn Brennan are 27.

Narrated by Stephen.

Kaitlyn is busier than ever with her fourth and last year of doctorate studies so we try to make the most of the little free time we actually get to spend together. One of our favourite things to do is walk to the park nearby and sit on the bench and talk.

Is it true

Round 17: April 2028

Jack Robinson is 45, Paige is 44, Todd is 16, Emma is 7 and Beck is 2.
(Skye is 16.)

Narrated by Todd

Last year my parents told me that I'd have to either get a job or start helping on the farm since I was already 15. I gladly chose working on the farm instead of trying to get a job elsewhere. I don't mind actually. I mean it's a lot of hard work but it's kind of cool to think that we grow food for our own family and probably at least like half the town as well. Dad and I usually go over some farm stuff during dinner so I know what I'm supposed to do after school the next day.

Round 17: March 2028

Sara Midlock is 19 and Riley Cooper is 18.

Narrated by Riley.

Apparently there was a mix-up thanks to my unisex name and my student info said I was a female... so naturally I was also assigned a female room mate. It was a pretty awkward first couple of weeks. I ended up sleeping on the floor of Sara's room most nights so my room mate could have the room for herself. Luckily they were able to correct the situation pretty quickly. While I was okay with the thought of having a room mate, I got to say I'm happy I have my own room now.

Sound the alarm

Round 17: March 2028

Aaron Hayes, Emily Midlock and Frieda Robinson are 20.

(Sara is 19, Riley is 18 and Jesse is 15.)

Narrated by Emily

Frieda has been bugging us about throwing a party and this semester our schedules finally aligned enough that we actually could. We also wanted to welcome Riley to university so we decided to throw a joined birthday party for him and me. Throwing a party at a dorm is not exactly acceptable but people do it anyway because usually the RAs let it slide. We only invited Frieda's boyfriend Blake, Sara and Riley and also Frieda's nephew Todd and his girlfriend Skye. Mind you, Todd and Skye are only 16 but we figured our party would be tame enough for highschoolers. 

News

As you might have noticed, I have been very inactive with the blog (again). My old PC has reached a state where it takes about 10 - 15 minutes to even get the thing running so I haven't actually even started the PC for weeks, let alone tried loading my game. I have a laptop for studying and light gaming but I doubt that it would run TS2 and I don't have the time and energy to install the game + all the EPs to even try.

I will leave the blog as it is for now and maybe at some point if I'm able to afford to buy a proper gaming PC I will give my sims another try but for the unseeable future this blog will not be updated. It kind of breaks my heart to write this but it is what it is.

Thank you for all the years you've stayed with me and my sims. Just hit me up in twitter or via email if you have any questions or just want to talk for old times sake. Or leave a comment here (I will try to remember to check if there are new comments from time to time).

Lots of love,

Sari

Round 17: February 2028

Gabriel Domingo is 28, Drake is 2 and Eve Midlock is 27.

 

Narrated by Eve.

 

My pregnancy wasn't exactly a planned one - far from it - but I couldn't love Drake more if I tried. Things with Gabriel were a bit complicated at first, mostly due to my issues with commitment, but I think we're doing alright. Marriage and children have never been very high on my list of things I want in the future but being in a committed relationship isn't as bad as I thought.
