And it wouldn’t stop glitching out! Even when I switched back into normal view and then back again!

didilysims said: That’s so cool! I love seeing behind-the-scenes stuff like that, and sometimes I think seeing the rehearsal can be more interesting than the final play! And not seeing a play this time gives you an excuse to go back someday! 😉

*bragging* I’m actually scheduled to assist the director (actually more like assisting the assistent of the director) in an upcoming opera that is performed at our university soon, so I might even get to experience this behind-the-scene-stuff first-hand- I love it, too! I’m always the one who watches the behind the scene footage and outtakes on DVDs and online. XD I’ll definitly come back, even only seeing the globe is impressing.

alexbgd said: strange I never ever, ever have a burglar in my game..

The “Wish for Wealth” genie wish ups the chances of getting robbed. But still, the amount of fires and burglaries in this hood is getting ridiculous!!! And only about half of the robbed households (spoiler: almost every single household) ever recieved a genie lamp…

didilysims said: Ha ha, you Germans have a wonderful way with words!

XD Our sayings tend to be rather… violent. And flowery. I’d really like to know how most of them were coined. Especially that “Wink mit dem Zaunpfahl” one… What the heck was going on wherever this was coined? Passive aggressive, bludgeoning bavarians? Fence-waving saxons? I’m going to look that one up, actually

EDIT: It’s actually somewhat linked to bludgeoning. As in medieval times, it was used to suggest someone that a good smacking awaited them. (The more you know) But it was mostly used to show that something couldn’t be more obvious, but still missed by the reciever.

syreni-sims reblogged this from aondaneedles : 

i love your photos so much aonda!

Thank you so much! And this coming from you! I absolutly adore your pictures (and Sims, of course. They’re marvellous!)

MEME

I got tagged by toofasttoofar.

Rule #1: Always post the rules.
Rule #2: Answer the questions from the person who asked, then write 11 new ones.
Rule #3: Tag 11 people! 

How long have you been part of the simming community?

I signed up for the German “Simforum” in the summer of 2009. That’s six years already!

Do you dabble in the other Sims games or are you strictly Sims 2?

I’ve tried Sims 3 when I got my first laptop. It looked much better… I also ‘dabbled’ in Sims for facebook, but quickly lost interest. Just not the same.

Who was your favourite sim you’ve ever had in your game? Post a picture (if you’ve got one)! 

That would be the mom of the girl in my avatar and no, I don’t have a picture of her anymore.

She was a downtownie (Ivy Butler). She fell in love with a much older man, got twins, was widowed early and became a famed author of detective novels. Poor Caroline (girl in my avatar) had an unsteady relationship with the town’s (Aonda’s Village) Casanova, had herself twins and was generably rather miserable, while her brother married Ginger Newson. They had a son.

Have you ever lived in another country?

New Zealand, 2011. Three months as an international student. Loved it. (But was sooo homesick sometimes. I was 15, okay?)

What is your favourite time of year?

Late spring/ early autumn. Love the weather, the light and the colors around.

When was the last time you went on holiday?

A month ago, two weeks in England (one week in Suffolk, one in Norfolk). Visited Cambridge and London. Here, have some holiday pictures to  make up for me not seeing this for ages!

My brother really want to visit Speedy’s (huge TV series nerd!) They make great sandwiches!

Where do you want to visit more than anywhere else?

I’d like to visit New Zealand again! (Apparently, it’s some sort of dream vacation destination for people in my country. Well, it has a certain charm!) Or America? Texel, an island in the Netherlands were we always spend our spring vacation… beautiful places where I’ve never been to? I’ve started college right after I finished school, so I didn’t have a gap year for travelling like some of my former classmates. I don’t regret it, but I would have loved travelling.

Do you see yourself playing the sims for the foreseeable future?

Yep. Until I lose interest completly, I’ll always come back.

What kind of computer do you play your game on?

A good one. Desktop. Good graphics. “Selfmade”. Specifically for gaming. The worst component is my harddrive. XD

Do you know anyone in real life that sims?

Yep, a friend of mine casually plays Sims 3, and some others played it when we were younger. Would need to ask them if they still. I don’t really talk about it in real-life.

What’s your dream job?

A job at the theatre, behind the scenes. Director, dramatic advisor, assistant director, you name it.

I’m not sure how old this is and if people still do this, so I won’t tag anyone. If you want to do it, feel free to do it. I’m lazy, use toofasttoofar’s questions. I don’t think they’d mind!

Late, late replies

Somethings off on my dashboard… Anyway, let’s start.

frottana-sims said: Dich hat’s also auch erwischt? Mich haben die selben heute auch abonniert. o_Ó

Diese Dinger sind aber auch extrem hartnäckig. Die kommen in Wellen. Manchmal bin ich echt dankbar für die Block-Funktion!

didilysims said: Aw. 😦 But on the bright side…at least she knows who the father is now?

I guess so? I don’t know how this will play out. Single mum and founder at this stage of the settlement is… harsh. I actually didn’t want to bring kids into that mix so soon. Welp, forgot to put them on birth control. And- yaay, you’re back!!! *throwsconfetti*

Attack of the porn blogs!!!

Also, yes, right? I’ve had a hard time coming up with a fitting Shawn and then I decided to include teeens and it just hit me! (would that make Johnny Gus? That would kind of fit tooo, dammit!)

I got tagged by jaydesims!

1) always post these rules 2) answer questions given to you by person who tagged you 3) tag 11 people

1. If you could remove one Sims EP or SP and replace it with your own idea for one, which one would you replace and what would be your idea for the new EP/SP?

Ufff….. I’m going with Bon Voyage (because it’s the one I use rarely). Honestly… dunno, sorry. 

2. Imagine you could go through life only listening to three songs. Which ones would you pick?

Oh dear. I’m a music-junkie. I don’t think I can think of three, but it would definitly be an upbeat one, an agressive one and a calming one. One would probably be from an opera…

3. Of the preset Maxis “story lines”, which one would you tweak and what would change about it?

There’s not much going on in Bluewater Village, I would probably do atleast something. Zombify half of the population, add more drama, something! It is sooo boring!

4. The last TV show/movie you watched is being adapted into the Sims. Which Maxis premades (from any neighborhood) do you cast as the main characters?

It was some sort of weird sitcom I don’t know. (Saturday nights at ten at BBC1… anyone?) Let’s just go with the last show I watched and I know: Psych.

Shawn: hmmm…. Ripp Grunt.

Gus: Ajay Loner? He seems to worry a lot.

Juliet: Angela

Lassiter: Buzz. Édit: Lola.

Henry: Oh dear. Buzz if it weren’t for the parental neglect. PT could be a good surrogate dad, probably.

Chief Vick: Lola. Or Mary-Sue.

Woody: Don? Vidcund?

(This is so hard!!! XD When did this turn into all Strangetown?)

5. Favorite NPC Sim?

Andrea Hogan. Love her!

I’m tagging anyone who hasn’t got a go at it and and would like to do it! And for my questions?

(Recycling some of jaydesims and others I’ve already seen)

1. The last TV show/movie you watched is being adapted into the Sims. Which Maxis premades (from any neighborhood) do you cast as the main characters? (love this question!)  

2.

Favorite NPC Sim?

3: Most gruesome way you’ve accidentially killed a sim?

4. Which EP/SP couldn’t you play without?

5. In which neighborhood would you like to live in if you were a Sim and who would be your a) best friend, b) arch enemy, c) frenemy?

Sooo… where did I hide?

Sorry from disappearing after coming back so briefly. I just finished my first year of college and still have to get some work wrapped up. I’m also sure I failed a course, thank god I’m not hurrying to finish college (college is (mostly) free here in Germany, which is pretty cool, because you can take all the time you need without having to worry about money. Downside- there are a lot of long-time students (in Dramatics, studying 10+ terms seems to be the norm XD) And it’s just one course, it ~should~ be possible to take it again next semester). BUT, I’ll be on vacation soon, so don’t expect that much post from me in the near future! ^^

When you get this, reply with 5 things that make you happy, then send it to the last 10 people you have notes from in your activity. ^-^

Oh! Hi there.

Oh dear…

1. My impending freedom. Only one more week of college and then I’m free for 3 whole months… whoo!

2. My dogs. Couldn’t live without them.

3. This may sound kind of weird, but I’ve got a new found sense for fashion. Kind of. I enjoy dressing up lately.

4. My family. We’ve been through hard times over the past year and I think we get along better than before.

5. Finally having some sort of fully wired brain. Puberty was horrible. Crying over burnt toast and destroyed Christmas ball ornaments. I’m not kidding you.

Wow, that was random and kind of personal. But hey, sometimes you need to dig deeper to cheer you up on a grey day like this.
