Okay......so....

After chucking a hissy fit and completely wiping my hard drive; I had problems with windows 7 needing activating, my sims 3 game kept crashing and instead of doing what a normal person would do, either fix the problem or leave it, I decided to get back at my pc by formatting the hard drive and completely wiping it and removing the operating system. I usually just turn the computer off when things get frustrating and walk away with a 'I warned you' directed at my pc, but this occasion called for something more.

Anyway before all that happened I'd been having problems with trying to install sims 2, for some reason there was a lot of glitches. But anyway since my hissy fit I installed Windows 7 on my pc again, which was like two weeks ago I think. So for the last couple of days I've just been dying! to play sims 2 (been playing a bit of sims 3 but it's just not the same!!) so I thought why not try and install sims 2 again, and if it's glitchy I'll find a way to fix it. I'm starting to get a cold too, and there is nothing better than feeling sick and playing the sims for HOURS with your absolute favourite family. So that was my main motivation for trying to install sims 2 again. Anyway I've just spent the last solid 2 and a half hours installing all my expansion packs............with NO GLITCHES!!!! WOOOOOOO!!!!! Although not all expansions I still haven't installed Apartment Life because frankly.....I don't know where the disc is and I'm not going to go looking for it at 2AM so that'll have to wait till the morning but i'm not really worried about finding though, I've got a few places in mind as to where it could be. Seriously though that must have been the 11th or 12th time in the last few weeks that I've uninstalled AND reinstalled ALL my sims 2 expansions, although there was an upside I practically knew all the product keys off by heart. The only thing that got really annoying was the interchanging discs. Insert disc 2, insert disc 1, insert sims 2 disc 4, now checking for update insert disc 1.

Okay so I'm like 2/3 of the way to writing my stories again :) The last minor hiccup is I have no microsoft office to actually write my stories and the first 6 chapters of the next story is in a microsoft word format so I can't actually open it. I had the microsoft office disc, but I seem to have misplaced it and I've been looking for it for the past two weeks since the fresh install, definately something I didn't think about when I wiped it.

So tomorrow I'm planning on installing Apartment Life, then move all my downloads from the family's pc to my new pc and also some necessary simmies, then cleaning up my extremely messy room with the goal of finding the microsoft office disc. Then I'm going to spend the rest of the afternoon writing my stories and playing sims. Oh bugger! I forgot there would be a brief hour break because of piano lessons, sooo forgot tomorrow was Tuesday.

Oh speaking of music I passed my Grade 4 Piano exam the other week :) not that it's really relevant to anything.

Adios xox
