I've always wondered this...

When you first met me (like the forums) what was it you thought of me? And do you still feel the same way? :3

You can leave it in a comment below, or leave in the little chat box to the left. :)


Random note:
It's supposed to actually snow three inches on Thursday.
Of course, it was 80 degree's today, so I very much doubt that weatherman. XD

I realized today...

That I have a lot of pride in my state.
Honestly, I love Texas. The state has so much culture, so much history...

Forever and ever... <3
Oh, and if you bad mouth Texas, I'll forever be angry with you.
Just kidding, not really.
Well, maybe a little.
You'd have to have a good reason to not like it.
X]
OH!
And guess where I'm at?
I'm literally in the middle of no-where-town, Texas.
Yups, that's right, me and my friend are taking a road trip...
What a joy. :D
Pray for me that I don't die, won't ya?
Sincerly,
Skippers

I hate...

deadlines! D:
That is all.
^.^
OH!
One more thing....
I has a cookie, and you don't.
(:

Skipper reporting live!

HI!
I'm waiting on a game to start up, so I'm posting random crap you won't care about. X]
First thing?
I met a new kid today. He's from Ohio. And he's pretty nice. But he's quiet. And has a great disliking for Katy Perry, which amazes me. Every guy I've met seems to be obsessed with her! And his sister is the BOMB. Not really...I dont' know her that well yet. X]
Second thing:

This song is amazing. <333 I've always loved it, but I've kinda re-fallen in love with it. X]
THIRD THING!
I dyed my hair. But I went blonde instead of red. I was going to do red, but at the last moment I changed my mind.
Edit: I should specify that it's not all blonde. Only parts of it. :)
FOURTH THING!
Lunch is so beyond awkward it puts even an awkward turtle to shame! D:
FIFTH THING!
I'm slowly losing a friend. And it saddens me greatly. :(
SIXTH THING!
I kinda ran out of things.
Ah well.

Ta-ta!
-skipper-

I, without a doubt, adore these two lines of literature!

To Be or Not To Be
To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them. To die—to sleep,
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to: 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep;
To sleep, perchance to dream—ay, there's the rub:
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause—there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life.
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
Th'oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of dispriz'd love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office, and the spurns
That patient merit of th'unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovere'd country, from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pitch and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action.

-MacBeth, William Shakespeare

The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
and sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, long I stood
and looked down one as far as I could
to where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
and having perhaps the better claim
because it was grassy and wanted wear;
though as for that, the passing there
had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
in leaves no feet had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I --
I took the one less travelled by,
and that has made all the difference

-Robert Frost

Do you have any favorites? :3

Ugh...forums and songs are my cup of tea, yanno.

The forums hate me.
-.-
I've had to refresh a page like, 20 times just to ACCESS it.
It makes me angry. D:
Anywhos, I've got three songs stuck in my head!
They are the following:

Yeah.
I'm in a very All-American Reject mood. :3
:D

They say that time heals every wound...

...but if I counted on forever with you, how exactly do I heal?

Randomness To the Third Degree. ^.^

This is filled with randomness. :)
First thing?
I've got naturally black hair, and I'm thinking of dying it...
Going blonde sounds good, no?
Or brown?
Or red?
There's just SO many options! :O
Second thing:
I got a new kitten. ^.^
His name is Bon-Bon, but Bon for short.
He's the brother to my other kitteh (they've got the same mommeh) and his brother's name is Jovi.
So, together, they are Bon Jovi. X]
Third thing:
My puppeh is a moron. Alexander? The one who almost died awhile back? Well, I'm glad to say that he is OK. In a way. The dog ate one of SIR BENNY'S KIDS! D:
That is all.
^.^

I think my room is haunted...

...not really.
But, there is a mouse in here.
And guess what?
I caught it. ^.^
It's in a box, and it's official name is Sir Benny. ^.^
And then, guess what happened one hour ago?
My cat walked in with another mouse that looked JUST LIKE IT.
Then, guess what I just saw?
Sir Benny had babies!
Do you know what this means!?
Sir Benny is a GIRL.
And those little mouse children will grow up without a father, as I think my cat ate him...
D:
I feel like I just ruined a family....


That is all. ^.^

Politics?

Yeah...
A ten page essay on politics.
I mean, honestly?
FML.
So, I'm writing ten pages of meaningless stuff. X]
What. A. Joy.
Oh, and it's due tomorrow.
And I'm on page 2.
:)
Best line in my story?
"I remember back when I first started reading comics back at a young age, and I saw a cartoon with a presidental candidate on the toilet. I remember turning to my dad and asking, 'Daddy? I thought it was bad to show people these type of pictures? That's what you told me!' And then my dad said, 'Well, honey, this person thinks that this person's policy stinks.' And then I said, 'So, that's what it's called in newspapers?' And my dad said, 'What?' Then I said, 'In newspapers they call poo's 'policys'?"
^.^

YO. Look here for details. ^.^

Want to read about the party?
It's got a new thread!
http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/0/330576.page#4481435


^.^

Aww....what a sad day! :(

So, I made a par-tay thread, and I had like, 18 people involved. That's a lot of people, yanno?
Anywhos, I had all this stuff planned out and an introduction up....
Well, that thread is now gone.
:(
Sad times, my friends.
That thread was filled with a randomness that can not be beaten (ok, maybe it can, but whatev).
It shall forever be missed.
And, here is how I feel about it being deleted:

Yeah.
All I have to say about that.

A Skipper simself?

Ok, Cooklez wanted a simmyself of your dearest and most beloved (rofl) skipper.
So, I did that! My simmyself is all snazzy (not really, just average) and uploaded to MediaFire. ^.^
Why is I posting this, you ask?
Because, it's the only way I can think to inform the darling Cooklez. XD
And, I am rather proud since this is the first thing I've uploaded to mediafire. ^.^
So, here she is:
http://www.mediafire.com/?savgn3c3dokb123
Oh, and she is in household form, I believe.

And, some good ol' pictures since I stalk my own self and took 'em:

 

 



One Day...

...you're going to see me sitting behind bars.
Why?
Because, one day, my step-dad is going to drive me just a tad bit tooooo crazy!
As i've told before, he's a total jerk. But today, he just passed the line.
You see, I've got this big gash on my face, a scar that runs from my chin down, because I got in a car accident when I was younger. It makes me extremely self-concious, and I KNOW that people look at it. But, that's not the point, the point is that I asked him and my mom if I could take drivers ed and he said:
I dunno, but you'll have to be careful. We don't need another person with your face.
He said it jokingly...
But it's not a joke. It's a painful reality.

A day with the Cooklez simmyself. :3

Ok, so in my game, I had my simmyself running around town, and who do I see?
None other then Cooklez!
So, I spend the day with her.
Here's how it pretty much goes:

Well, when I first saw you, you were busy jammin' out at the park by yourself on the drums while you're surronded by little birds which totally amazed me. You, however, were not phased by the birds and continued to jam out...

Anywhos, I went up to introduce myself, and since funny interactions always boost up a relationship, that's what I did. ^.^

So you see, this face here leads me to belive that perhaps you aren't as blood-thirsty as you have led to me to think. I mean this in the nicest way, though! :)

Then, you made this face at me. I is just a poor Skipper, whatever did I do to you!?

You then pulled out your handy-dandy what-ever-it's-called tool.

And then, while tossing it in the air, you looked over at my sim self.
Now worries, I'll hide the children.

But, not is all bad! We went clubbing, I'm a big fan of them, and we tried out the bubble machine.

Bubbles amazed me...

This face seems to say, "Now, in Silent Hill, they taught me how to do this!" Yeah, you seem all so powerful and knowing, until...

You made this face. Even bubbles amuse the Cooklez.
Who knew!?

You then went to go get a drink, and me, being the stalker that I am, followed you. Your sim seems to be saying, "Those are so fake." But yanno, in better Cooklez humor. :)

My simself find amusement in the smaller things, and was rather shocked that these fish were fake.

You, obviously, had different plans for the water.

You sly dog. ;) He was the bouncer and everyfink! :3
Well, at least now I know how you got in easily while I had to PAY. -_-

The night came to a close with a bit of dancing, for the club we visited was rather dead...

But hey, leave it to Cooklez to liven things up a bit, eh? :D


Anywhos, I know, it was rather lame, and I had a lot more planned, yanno, vampire stuff, but this is where my game decided to crash on me....So yeah, this is it. For now, at least. ^.^

Yanno, sometimes, I think my game is screwed up.

So, I was playing my game today while eating a cookie, yanno, enjoying life. Well, it soon became time for my little toddler Eliza to become a child.

This is the result:

So, with that in mind, I quickly tried to think up a solution of how to solve it.
I thought that with them moving out, I could get the little girl to go back to normal.
Howevers, I am obviously not that lucky.
For, when I went to visit them, this awaited me outside:

Also, I think my game try's just a tad to hard to give the pre-made sims that certain 'appeal'--if ya know what I mean! For, while I was walking through the park with a sim, I saw this:

Holly Alto, have you lost all respect for yourself?
I also saw this:

It's not that bad, but still.

This here is River, I think. Ya see, my sim went out with her when she was a teenager, and then, as a young adult, she thought it would be nice to come by for a visit. Obviously, she is trying to hard without the shirt...but seriously dear, what is up with the way your walking!?

And, to end this on a nicer note, I was playing with Madison VanWatson.

I don't think people really like her, so, as I was playing wit her, I noticed something that shocked me. She's acutally half-way pretty, yanno? Anywhos, I got her preggo and she had a baby boy named Harvey. BUT! The best part is the labor pictures.

And that, my darlings, is where I stopped playing and went to make a simself....
But yeah. It was one interesting day of simming, that much was for sure.

Banana-Spaz-Out-Attack

So, I was going through youtube stalking all my favorite bands and youtube loaders and stuffs, when I saw this video labled: MTV The Ready Set
So, I clicked it.
The screaming was a turn-off for me, so if your watching this, I suggest you turn down the volume.
Howevers, right when I was about to click off it, I noticed something that made me burst out laughing.

Did you see it?
The banana at the bottom? In the crowd? Spazzing out?
Oh dear.
It was funny stuff! :D
Just in case you couldn't view it, here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjX4H4MwqJk
:)


On a more pissed off note, there's a mouse in my room that refuses to leave. And me, being the awesome person I am, I refuse to kill it.
For some reason, it's thanking me by leaving it's chocolate turds on my floor.
Dear. God.
CURSE YOU MOUSE.
But I named him Benny. ^.^

EEP! Look at this! :O

I want you to look at the blog!
Why?
Because, it got a whole new make-over thing!
New header and background and color scheme and everyfink. :3
Now, before I add pictures and polls and stuff, answer the poll to the left!
Thank you. <3333

Change is Coming...

Change is coming, yes, to the blog of course! Ya see, I've got almost everything done. I even got the background done, but it kept screwing up. By that, I mean that it would show up once and NOT repeat itself to cover the whole page (help with this, please?). Other then that, I've got everything ready. New profile picture, new banner, new polls, new music, the vote thing at the bottom of a post, new layout and new color scheme.
Yesh, I is excited. :3

My new-background-rough-draft

Wanna see the pictures I'll be using?
Well, look no further!
I've got the basic idea of the collage set up. I just gotta edit the photo's to my liking and switch a few out.
SO!!!!

Just thought I'd let ya know. :)

Er, no title for this. :D

And to end this on a funny note...

My dearest sims...

Dearest Sims,
I must depart from you. Not for forever, of course, just for a simple time of one week. You see my dearest sims, something called school and real life drama that is a pain in the backside pulls me away from you. But, fear not, no one or nothing shall ever replace the dearest spot you have acquired in my heart. I love you, sims, just please don't forget me! I shall return as soon as I can to you my dearest game, but until then, with love, your dearest owner, Skip45.

Sincerly,
Bethany (a.k.a skip45)
