The last website I’ve found to mod the Sims 3.

Another mod website for the Sims 3, but I have yet to check it out thoroughly.

The first modding website I’ve been using. It’s impressed me so far :)
“Friends don’t crap on friends.”
– Myself
It is love
need to smarten up! Yeesh. I’m far too sensitive, I get angry far too easily. All I have to do is trust in my love with Sam, and nothing else can become a big issue. In Sam I trust :P
How we missed your beat again
get very irritated when people give me their schedules and ask me to do all the planning work. I wrote down everybody’s schedules, and I have made my timetable available to people so they can set things up as well. But nobody checks, they just assume I have class. It’s so frustrating, it feels like they just don’t care. And if they’re just using it as an excuse to not have...
In it for real
just realized something amusing. Every time Hilary has a new boyfriend I befriend him and add him on Facebook. Now she finally has a good female friend at Carleton and I’m doing the same thing! Anyone who’s important to Hilary will be important to me. I want to be friends with her friends so there’s no silliness about hanging out. Jen didn’t invite her college friends to...
Therapy
f I’m interested in psychology, shouldn’t I have some idea about the negative things I do? And shouldn’t I be able to look at it, figure it out and know how to work on it? Or does it just mean that I’m not actually capable, interested, comprehending, etc. the information, and I won’t be able to do or enjoy it?
Issues
Yes I know I’m fucking crazy.

Sand Banks!
Katie : Hey Heather. I'm trying to set up a plan for a day trip to Sand Banks, and I was wondering if you would drive a carload of people up there. I have a list of people planned out, and I want you, Nick and Steve with us :) You could drive Nick and Steve, and any of your friends you want to invite that will fit in your car. I'll be having a camp out at my house the night before. I'm hoping to do this on either August 10th or 17th, but the 14th, 20th and 24th are also possibilities. I have to see what the other potential driver says about the trip to have a confirmation.
Heather : awesome!! I'd love to. I'll have to go over the dates with my mumsy and see what works best. !!!! i love sandbanks!! BODY SURFING!! :D
Katie : Alright. I'd prefer to do this trip on the 10th or 17th, but let me know which ones you can do. The other driver hasn't responded to me yet (surprise, surprise) so I'm gonna start looking for a different one.
Heather : okay cool. i would say there's a 90% chance that i CAN drive :) lol
Katie : yay :) Lemme know as soon as you know anything definite.
Katie : I can't find another ride, and most of the friends I would've invited will be going some other time to Sandbanks with me, so on the 17th (rain date 24th), we should just go you, Nick, Steve, Sam and me. And I'll drive to Sandbanks :) You just have to drive out to my house the night before. Does that sound OK?
Heather : Okay well.. my whole family wants to come with lol. Mom was all.. "you're going to sandbanks!? i wanna come!!" but they're all pretty rad so that's probably okay. and we have a van and a car, and it might be easier to get you to Perth since there's only two of you :) whaddya think?
Katie : Why don't you guys just go? I have other plans to go another itme anyway.
Heather : Cause we haven't hung out in like a billion years!! You and Cody could drive there and we could meet you? Plus.. you can never have too much of sandbanks :) it's so nice there.
Katie : Who's Cody? I don't want to tag along on a family day at the beach. We'll hang out for sure, don't worry :)
Heather : LOL oops i meant Sam!! hahaha. But steve and nick and maybe a couple more are coming too... and family day with my family is pretty much like being with friends anyway because they're all so craaazy.
Heather : Yeah.. don't feel like it would be imposing or anything. They're even driving down in a separate car. Pleeeeaaasee come? :)
Katie : Heather, this was a day to the beach with my friends that I invited you to. Now it's a day at the beach with your family and maybe a couple of your friends that I'm being invited to. I don't want to go. I'll see you sometime in Perth soon, but I'm not going to Sandbanks with you.
Heather : Okaaaaaaay... we're going to miss you though!!
CO - COA - POD
[photo of a cocoa pod is open on my laptop because I'm using it for the class project, a set of mugs for hot chocolate]
Mary: What is that?
Me: A cocoa pod.
Mary: [doesn't hear/understand and says something confused]
Me: It's a cocoa pod.
Mary: [still doesn't understand and is boggling me with her idiocy]
Me: It's - a - co - coa - pod.
Mary: [offended by my tone, as if I'm talking to a retarded child] Well I've never seen one before.
Me: Neither had I.
Mary: What's it for?
Me: Hot chocolate.
Mary: Oh. Why is it there?
Me: For hot chocolate.
Mary: Well I don't need to see something before I can eat it.
Me: Neither do I.
Mary: Then why do you have a picture of it?
Me: [beyond comprehension] FOR HOT CHOCOLATE. [flails arms back and forth from image to project]
Mary: ...?
Me: My project is on hot chocolate!!!
Mary: Ohhhhhhh.
Me: [dies a little]
Nearing the end of the rope?
feel like I have to act dumb around Jen because that’s all she expects from me. I don’t do it on purpose, but after I do something pretty dumb and she makes fun of me, I realize that I wouldn’t normally do that. I guess I just subconsciously decided that I’m sick of being laughed at for being ‘dumb’ when I don’t think I am, so I might as well just act...
In love with words
love reading my favourite books over again. They always offer something new. Right now I’m reading Twilight for the fourth time or so, and this paragraph describing the beach at La Push is so new to me and beautiful, I had to read it over a couple times and thoroughly enjoy it.
“The water was dark gray, even in the sunlight, white-capped and heaving to the gray, rocky shore. Islands...
Double anti-helix
am so thrilled with my new piercing. The piercer was really impressed too, he said I have very good taste in piercings. They even took a couple photos of it, which I find totally flattering. It did cost quite a bit more than I expected, but it’s totally worth it. I’m really glad I decided to go back to Iron Legends, the quality of their service is just phenomenal. When Sam and I...
Shining star
am is a star. He willingly throws himself into very academic and intelligent subjects without being pushed by parents or teachers. I can handle these subjects just fine, but I really prefer to sit down with Twilight instead of a book on consciousness. But Sam is so bright, coming up with complex ideas intended to question the norm and make you think. I love to doubt the norm, but I really...
Colour my world
y painting teacher is so unbearable! Today she was marginally better than last week, because she talked less and didn’t say as much bad stuff about my work. She was actually giving out praise this time, which was a shocker. But she was still really controlling and uncaring. She got mad at me for packing up 25 minutes before class was over because I did that last week too. But there’s a...
Lullabies
‘m gonna go crazyy! My body is so dumb when it comes to sleep. For the past three nights I’ve gotten 8, 9 and 9 hours of sleep, plus a 2 hour nap yesterday. Yet I’m still tired! And I have been for god knows how long. If I sleep in any longer than 8, I have a headache no matter how long I slept. But I can’t fall asleep when I try to go to bed early. It’s driving me...
Foundations for a strong talent
Today went fantastically. I spent the morning in class, which is never a downer. Seb was in my class (unfortunately Damien wasn’t there today), and we spent the day looking at everybody’s work individually again. I had no problem with this, although Seb hates it, because even though it takes up the bulk of the class (it leaves literally 15 minutes at the end to assign the new project),...
