18 days

i always forget to update this blog. so summer is over in 18 days. i'll be 21 in 18 days. i'll be a college student in 18 days. i might even feel like a real adult in 18 days.

i got my class schedule yesterday, so it's starting to hit me that i'll have to grow up and go to school every day and really apply myself. i'm excited to go school shopping and get supplies and things for my room.

i recently bought a 17" Macbook Pro with my student line of credit. i also bought a cute backpack for it. hope my books and lunch fits in with my behemoth of a laptop.

on august 27th, i'll be going to both campuses for orientation. i'm going to get my student card and bus pass probably. i'll also get my book list i'm assuming so i can finally get those. i hope they're not too expensive.

the new sims expansion, Apartment Life or whatever, comes out in a few weeks. i hope i get it for my birthday. i also need to get an XP disc so i can dual-boot and play the sims on my mac. i'm so excited for that. my old computer was crazy slow and it wasn't even fun to play most of the time.

you know what if fun to play? wiifit. my aunt lent hers to me and it's such a great game. it's tiring, though, but it makes you feel good. my friends were playing it for the last few days and they were beating my records, so now there's competition to destroy :D i unlocked Free Step today. i walked 1800ish steps in 20 minutes while watching Bikini or Bust on TLC. good times.

so it's almost the middle of august. this summer has been really great. my friends are fun and my camera is nice. imovie 08 is a nice program. i finally figured out how to resize pictures using iphoto, so hopefully this will inspire me to update this blog more often :)

here are three videos of my friends and i having fun, lol:

sims and exciting things

it took seven hours to play three sim days. my computer is garbage. agustus is finally a teenager. he is the fourth youngest first gen grim. sarelleh will be a teenager in i think four days. the twins will be children in two and that will be it for the first gen grim babies. finally. i'm so happy i got them back. isavellah and spy are going to be seniors in two days as well and that just makes me sad, but i've been putting off their birthdays for literally three years and a few of their children are catching up to their age, so they might as well grow up, for continuity's sake. i remember one time i actually allowed their daughter merachella to grow up into a senior and then i turned of the game without saving because it was just too weird.
