Ah cool. I personally have my three year old baby Astrid (Macbook pro with space stickers like ALL OVER).
|
*drools* I wanted a mac, but im a bit skinty, so i had to get what i could, and the other half decided to buy me a second hand for xmas so i can hardly object, at least i have one to write on now! :D
|
Like I said, mine is three years old. I took a gap year after high school to work full time before going to tertiary and part of my savings went to my baby. "For study reasons".
|
Aw. is it still being a good baby though? This seems ok so far apart from the windows 8 stuff, i haven't managed to get emulator games to work with a controller yet, but it doesnt seem to want to change to windows 10 so im gonna have to ask the better half to help.
|
She's slowed down a bit, but her battery life is still solid (I got 2+ hours out of 30% about a month ago) and she still runs Sims 4 and does all the other things I need. And I haven't run into too many overheating problems yet either. Just overall we're still doing good.
|
Thats good! I just actually bought sims 4 to try on the new lappy, havent tried it yet, it is hard to figure out? Last one i played was 2 xD
|
If the last one you played was 2 then it might be a teeny bit tricky to figure out but the tutorials are pretty good, and the whole UI is really simplified. Lots less variables on how your sims interact, like they removed "interests" in sims 3, which I think was a good call really.
|
Yeah i never played 3 my laptop was too slow to run some of 2 so i didnt even bother trying, figured id get 4 for this one, i better do the tutorials then xD
Yay shop opens soon! Been dying to go since yesterday i left it too late cause i fell asleep xD |
What shop is this?
|
Oh just the local supermarket it opens at 7. I've been worrying about something for a day or so and i can't settle till i sort it out cause im seeing my partner later and i'd rather known one way or another!
|
Ahhhh cool stuff! Good luck with whatever it is [:)]
|
Yeah i need it haha. Got a meeting at work tonight with him so i need my head screwed on. At least i have the rest of the week off, all things go well we can spend tomorrow night together doing something nice =3

Yes! I did! I won for the first time ever, and I'm really proud of myself!
|
Awww wow! Closest i got was 49k, i had to work the last few days and it ruined my chances, but i didnt mind, i knew i would have done had i been sat infront of the lappy at the time.
Next time ill probably be working alot too, but hopefully i can squeeze time in =3 |
I sat down and wrote about 7k words one day towards the end, and won on the 22nd, I still cannot believe it.
|
Congrats hun! Its hard work at times especially in the second week or if you have other commitments.
I remember a 7k or so day too, it was a reeeeealllly long fight scene haha, that ended in romance, obv. It was pretty rubbish when i read it back but at least i got the words down xD |
I think mine was about two chapters, but I've written so much I can't even remember what chapters they were [lol]. I make a point of not reading back until I've completely finished my first draft.
|
Reading back is dangerous, it put me off wanting to write any more on it D=
|
I always just want to start over if I read back, so no reading back allowed.
|
You people chatting up a storm when I. am. stuck. on. long. outstation. journey?!
Samsung. Wow. Seldom hear about those as laptop. Is it those laptop with keyboard or a tablet? The amazing thing that happened when I re-read, it can go both ways... "Oh crap, typos!" as normal as that or... "Who wrote this? Was it me? How come I can come up with such vocabulary? so awesome!" 8D and that awesome was a positive awesome, sincere. |
You must be pretty confident about your writing then Xuvie! Go you!
|
Erm ... No. It just show that I dont even remember what I wrote...T______T
|
Oh hahaha. Yeah that sounds more realistic [lol]
|
More matching to my character. <3
|
I've done that a couple of times, reread something I wrote a few years before and gone "Did I really write this? This is actually really good!" Most of the time, it's more along the lines of "Who wrote this garbage, it really sucks." Then I realize it was me.
I'm really struggling with getting back in the habit of writing. Part of it is I'm not sure what I want to work on. I think if I just pick something and stick with it I'll be okay. The trouble is that I can''t pick what I want to write. I may go back to the novel I worked on for my first NaNo, and reread it, and possibly edit it, then start where I left off... But I also want to write a Sailor Moon fanfiction, too.... |
