Started playing with just the first DVD, during March 2008.
- It took me some time to figure out how to move around, and build.
- Character Development and a Bio to what they've been up to, can be updated.
- Deciding how to get the best Camera and Video Shots for certain scenes.

Along with the Sims 2, was a Mac g5 computer - and having to relearn Quick Time, iMovie editor for 2008. so far I've uploaded a sample video for youtube.com - but it played "Upside Down" a scene between Don Lothario and Nina Calliente.

I wanted to film or record the CAS system - but it didn't work out as planned, so I took a digital camera and filmed my own pics, and uploaded another video editing shoot, for youtube.

--- then I relocated / moved to another neighborhood that is much easier, for someone in the family who'se dependant on an invalid scooter, and needed me as a 24 hour live in - intake care provider. ( that's a tough decision to have to do, and yet was told that I'm wasting my time trying to help senior citizens... when I ought to be going to some church function with people I REALLY DON'T PARTICULARLY CARE TO BE IN THE SAME ROOM WITH - and their very small minded, biased viewpoints... and decided that after two months... and being asked to volunteer to help a Youth Group for Preteens that don't have anything better to do than to destroy property ... I had to decline.) --- Had to make a choice... either it was playing with the Sims 2, or just feel like I committed some sin and need to be punished for wasting my time, not looking for a ditch digging job for less than minimum wage... just so I can fit in with the rest of the misfits.

The Sims 2 - rescued my from having to just "put up" with what is and make changes.

After three months during this summer to this New Location - I've applied myself a bit more, and focused on learning how to do 2D animation clips and learning how to use a digital film camera... more.

- Last week I got University / Nightlife - After this Labor Day weekend is over, I'm getting OFB, and PETS. (( I felt that I'm deserving of getting involved in something, that is interesting - and stimulates creative writing, and dealing with others who don't have much to look forward to but diet pills and beer.))
