I won't be left on the shelf! er... at least i hope so...

everyone seems to be rather concerned abt my marital status. should they be?

my colleague of less than 2 weeks (A GUY) just encouraged me to go for SDU outings. and to go for SDU outings with a guy who goes to SDU outings. luckily i found out that the colleague is already attached. kind of freaky, dun u think? anyway, do colleagues go ard asking new colleagues to join SDU activities? although some of the SDU activities sound fun, i really dun think i would wanna go w a guy i only had lunch w once.

then on my way home tonite, bumped into my brother's fren's aunt (note: childhood fren, i noe the guy too). she was ecstatic to hear that i was still single. i think she said something like telling my bro's fren's mum that i'm still single. and said something along the line of "you should get together w him! would make a great couple! both of u so guai1..."

frankly, i really do make a sucky gf. why's everyone so concerned that i'm single?

i'm not yvonne! hmmph.

uncle david loves to call me yvonne. cos the girl who used to sit at my desk was called yvonne. so uncle david goes ard telling ppl to call me yvonne. -_-

so uncle david (UD) was chatting w sunny in sunny's room and i happened to walk past. then they pulled me into their conversation:

UD : so how old are u now?
Me : eh... going to be 23.
UD : orh... so u got 2.5 more years to be a fruitcake.
Me : eh?
UD : 25 yrs old mah... x'mas day... then fruitcake lor. then next yr, ba zhang (rice dumpling), then yr after that, mooncake lor! then after that...
Me : left on the shelf and no one wants liao!
everybody: LOL

UD also said if dun wanna be fruitcake, can also be logcake. =P

anyway, my job involves lots of free lunches, dinners and tea sessions apparently. so UD's aim is to fatten me up to 50kg in 2 months' time. or was it one month?

Long awaited Episode XI!

YES! you can read all about it here!

Update: the 3 gals are all in college... well... they WERE in college for the whole of today.

Susan - black hair, Ms Fortune
Gabi - blonde, Ms Popular
Bree - orange hair, Family Girl

They all studied different majors, although i don't remember which ones cos i just threw dice and tikam tikam. I think Bree is in pol science, which is what her grandma Angela did! Remember Mr Jones? Yes yes, the prof whom Angela was dating in Uni but dumped for Dominique and i was hoping to matchmake him with Lynette (angela's daughter) but they had a falling out and she married Ray Trottier instead? Black hair, tan guy... Well... he's Bree's professor now, and they fell in love and she wanted to get engaged to him... so they did!!! So Bree, the youngest of the lot decided on her guy first! She still wishes that her first love George could join her in college, but alas, it is not to be...

Gabi the blonde wants to have 10 best friends! sorry... but looking at how crowded her family is, i really don't think she can manage 10 best friends. So Gabi had already gotten to know Mitch, the Fireman. How? well... let's just say SOMEONE left some food on the stove for too long and a Knight in Red armour came to her rescue. =P Seeing her younger sis getting engaged so quickly made Ms Popular panic, so she got engaged to Mitch. Oh joy! I heard he's a family man so they should be happy together!

Susan... all she thinks of is to sell masterpieces, which are worth between 550- 607 simoleons. Yes, that's the Sims currency. Not dollars, not cents, but simoleons. I was starting to get worried about her. Her social circle is SOOOO limited being the money-minded gal that she is. Cute guys already taken - the Fireman, the young prof... She couldn't get hold of the manservant (i think they're short in supply - i keep getting Lucy or Kayleen, the well endowed French maids). The repairman is too old, the bartender... well... erms... AND THEN I REMEMBERED THE GARDENER! well... she wanted flowers and shrubs anyway. turns out that the garderner Leo is quite the cutie. In my personal opinion, the cutest of the lot and my sis was wondering, "what's a farmer doing here?" lol...

So they all got engaged AND graduated! Bree WANTS to throw a wedding party = she wants to get married! Susan wants to get into a CRIMINAL career *gasps*. Crime really doesn't pay, Ms Fortune. She also wants to marry a rich sim, but i don't think the gardener makes much. Gabi... like her gramps, wants to serve the country - it's military or police for her. i wonder... if Gabi becomes a cop, and Susie becomes a criminal, will they end up in conflict? *gasps*

------------------------------
Does Prof Jones still love Angela? Does Angela still love Prof Jones? Can Bree be happy with her grandma's ex? Will Grampa Dominique get pissed off? WILL SUSAN DUMP LEO FOR A RICH GUY??? WILL SUSAN AND GABI FACE OFF?!?! Tune in next Sunday night for the next exciting episode of...

Fairview Affairs *fairs fairs fairs*...

i really ought to be less trusting...

First Day at Work Report.

Met Melly Welly to go to work together. Reached my new workplace rather early... so tmr can wake up later. =)

8 of us started work today. 5 FSOs, 2 Communications officers and 1 girl from AGD. VOC should have switched jobs earlier! then can join me! of the 8 of us, the 2 comm officers, AGD girl and one FSO were making early/mid-career changes. So left us 4 fresh grads. The training room was set up with tables for 4, so we formed the "freshies" table while the career change ppl sat at the other table. So there was this guy from sociology who applied for the job last nov and got offered the job in jan! and got a scholar too who turned out to be the soci guy's pri 4 classmate!

One of the freshies looked quite cute and turned out to be Aki's schoolmate!

AC: "Oh... i'm from RE."
Me: "OOH! then do u know Aki?"
AC: "THAT SUPER SMART GIRL AH? WHO DUNNO?"

so i msged Aki, who said she agar agar noe who he is and asked me to say "Hi" to him for her, to which he replied "WAH! constant reporting ah?" lol... anyway, he has braces too! I won't be the only freshie who needs to take time off for dental appt. =) All the FSOs are in different depts, i'm the only one in a functional dept. the other 4 are going to political depts...

Lots of talks. The security head was very strict. must be careful when i start work! My pass photo very ugly. but expected. totally not photogenic. the Library head was very funny and kept emphasising that he/the library is there to help us so we must feel free to utilise it. Lunch sucked. We're gonna venture out to Tanglin Mall tmr.

While talking to the other guys, found out that for the interview, we were interviewed by the heads of the depts that were likely to take us in. Wow... so from the 2nd round they already had an idea of where to send us i guess.

Had an informal session with the director of HR. He said something like "some of u might be asking yourselves 'why never get into HR?' " (in ref to him being a nice guy i guess) and was looking at me. dunno if cos i almost ended up in HR or cos he was sitting directly opposite me so he was looking at me when he said that.

We had early dismissal! left work at 430 today! but Aki's schoolmate was asked to attend a dept farewell party for the guy he was replacing so he had to stay back. =P

tmr's another day of briefing... then will get to go to our dept at the end of the day. Heard that the ppl in my dept are quite nice... let's see tmr! =)

Death becomes her.

The moment i've been waiting for: Mr Grim Reaper, accompanied by his two hula dancers had come to bring Angela on her eternal holiday. U can see Gabi on the left side crying.
However, 群众要求, Lynette resurrected Angela by making a call to Mr Reaper, offering $10k (if too little, Mr Reaper not happy = Angela becomes a zombie). She remembers all her relationships, except to D's! So have to make them fall in love all over again.

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

However, since D is just 1 day younger than A, Mr Reaper came again with his entourage to bring D on his holiday.
Image hosted by Photobucket.com

So in the spirit of finding out whether resurrected beings can get married again, Angela resurrected D to 再续情缘. Already set up the altar, just waiting for them to 培养感情。

Anyway, update on the rest of the family:
Ray and Lynette are now elderly people and have thus reached menopause. NO MORE BABIES FOR RAY! they are older than their parents now, since the parents were resurrected at age 54 but R&L are now 58 or so.
Susan has gone off to college. Her ambition is to have fame and Fortune.
Gabi is trying to score more scholarships before she goes to college. In the meantime, her relationship w Bree isn't very good so trying to get them involved in more group activities. Her ambition is to be Popular
Bree is now a teenager. got into private school like her two older sisters. Her ambition is to have a Family.

----------------------
Will D&A get married again? Will Gabi and Bree fall out? Will anyone want to resurrect R&L when they die eventually? FIND OUT MORE in the NEXT EXCITING EPISODE OF "FAIRVIEW AFFAIRS"!

Tai-Tai Day

Regret buying my new shoes (black strappy). Nice, but heels are 3 inches and the straps are a bit too tight. =( Must buy some padding to protect the balls of my soles!

WANKO:
Went shopping w Aki and Spinky today. While Spinky was home making rice dumplings, Aki and I bought the same tops at Wanko. We also noted that the shirts there are quite nice and fitting! Given that Wanko has 50% or buy 1 get 1 free sales ever so often, we might go there more frequently. =)

MATCH:
While I tried and subsequently bought a sleeveless top from Match, Aki went to do her big business. Really wanted an opinion on it before i bought it but i think it's the best buy (top) i made today. =) only $16.50! cos half-price... Waited outside Dano for a while and got bumped into one of 3 ang mohs. -_- sheesh. At some pt in time, we concluded that i look like the tai tai and Aki looked like my maid. =P

DANO:
Dano also had some nice tops! but i resisted buying another striped short sleeved top (which Aki wanted to buy n we would hence have 3 tops that are of same design, of which 2 are exact same colour). As the discount was only valid for 2 or more purchase, Aki decided to wait for Spinky to come, and brainwash her into buying clothes there.

Lunch! KFC! So long never eat there!!!

Post lunch: Met Spinky in front of Dano and got her to try some clothes which ultimately, were too big for her cos her frame is very small. In the end, I bought the black top that Spinky TRIED ON (resembles Ms Dreamer's style). haha... anyway, we got additional 10% discount cos Aki used her debit card! Woohoo! Then we went Novo to see shoes. Cos i had saw one earlier and was very tempted to buy. But at $39, the flat half covered, pointy shoes looked more casual than formal so i decided to just buy a pair of court shoes next time.

Back to WANKO:
Then we brought Spinky to Wanko to convince her to buy the top that we had bought but it was too big for her too. (there goes any chance of the 3 of us wearing the same shirts out. =P ) But she tried this short sleeved green shirt which fitted much better! SO TEMPTED TO BUY! ONLY $19.90!!! Had to quickly get out of the shop to resist buying. haha...

Back to IORA:
Then we showed Spinky the nice top we saw at Iora. I still think it's very nice!!! But very ex cos no sale. =( $36! Hope for sales next time then go buy... So anyone who see Iora sale must tell me!!!

U2:
Passed by U2 which we went in cos Jac didn't mind going to try this top that she liked. At first we thought no discount but it was 30% off. We flipped thru some clothes that were stacked across the bottom of the shelf and picked out a short sleeved one but was a bit too colourful. Aki and I bought spaghettis: me Blue&W, Aki B&W. More clothes of the same design!!!

So we managed to spend more than $150 altogether so we got a free tote bag while Spinky bumped into and talked to her ex-classmates. Next stop: Facial. Alright lar... but i still think my sis's facial place was better.

ROBINSONS:
Aki and Spinky looked at shoes while i sat down cos of my aching feet. Aki and I needed makeup but didn't know which shade was more suitable for us. Thus, we went to the Loreal counter at Robinsons, noted what stuff was suitable for us, and decided to come back and buy mascara.

Good offers at Guardian! 20% off! bought some skincare.

Back to Robinsons:
We were tempted to buy eye shadow! haha... 2 for $14.90! after vigourous application and rubbing on our hands (courtesy of Spinky), we ended up buying the same colour! haha... Spinky bought 2 for herself. Then i remarked that i forgot to buy makeup remover and the counter girl said "makeup remover? now got promo: buy 2 get 1 free" to which Spinky and I decided to SAPU!!! haha...

Really 满载而归!
Summary of what i bought:
  • Wanko shirt: $34.50
  • Match sleeveless top: $16.50
  • Dano short sleeves shirt: $28
  • U2 spaghettis: $19.50
  • Moisturizer: $16.90
  • Foundation (Sheer cashmere - don't need to powder!): $23
  • Mascara and eyeshadow: $18.35
  • Makeup remover (Gentle cleansing milk): $10.10
Did i miss anything out? =P $167!!! plus lunch, $172.80!!! THE MOST I HAVE EVER SPENT IN A DAY! but as long as i don't buy shoes, i don't regret my purchases... =) I really hate buying shoes... and heels are so high these days! must train!!!

ANOTHER GIRL!!!!!

The nick says it all. Ray and Lynette have yet another daughter - Bree! They must have tried to have a baby 5 times in a row - once in bed and the other 4 times in the hot tub - to no avail. Was starting to postulate why:
1. Lynette has reached menopause early.
2. Gabrielle was still a toddler so mebbe there's a bug which prevents mothers of toddlers from getting pregnant.
3. Ray's too stressed out from his Astronaut job.
4. Being in space kills sperms.
At which point, i contemplated the adoption service and also started wishing that sims could undergo IVF. Then Bree was conceived. ANOTHER GIRL!?!? I guess i'll just have to (a) let the Trottier name die out (b) make some guy 入赘 (marry into) the family.

summary of family and genetics:
1. Angela - 67 yrs old. White hair (used to be blonde), fair skin.
2. Dominque - 67 yrs old. White hair (used to be black), tanned skin.
3. Lynette - mid-adult. Blonde (dyed. born with black hair), fair skin.
4. Ray - mid-adult. Orange hair, fair skin.
5. Susan - 2 days from being a teenager. Black hair (Mum/Grampa's genes), fair skin (Mum/Dad/Grandma's genes)
6. Gabrielle - just grew up to be a child Blonde (Grandma's genes), fair skin (Mum/Dad/Grandma's genes)
7. Bree- newborn. Orange eyebrows (Dad's genes), fair skin (Mum/Dad/Grandma's genes)

So at her age, Angela still wants to have a relatively active sex life. D on the other hand, just wants to be best friends with his grand-daughters. Poor D. he got electrocuted just now.
Image hosted by Photobucket.com
AND HE SURVIVED! Sad to say. Well... kind of tired of having to manage an extended family with 7 members so started wishing D & A's deaths. =P would have been interesting to see him die (not in a sadistic way lar!). So he lives to die another day...
--------------------------
With the shortage of male NPCs, will the 3 girls grow up to fight over the same man? Will any of them have to marry Pao Mellon, the mailman? When will D & A die? Keep yourself updated in the next episode of "Fairview Affairs"!

What my cousin is up to...

So my dear cousin really does seem more kan cheong to see me get attached and married than i am.

Apparently, there's a new guy in her church. 28, optometrist or something, single, hot favourite for aunties in the church to attempt to matchmake to their single nieces. So my dear girl decided that she must introduce that guy to meet and decided that i should go to their church one of these sunday mornings to get a look at the guy.

In the end, my aunt (who knew nothing of my cousin's plans) invited me to go for the evening service just now. My cousin was disappointed that the guy didn't go but the pastor happened to be praising the guy in tonight's service, causing my cousin to grin from ear to ear.

Am I gonna have to be that desperate to depend on my cousin on matchmaking services? lol

Television Baton

Feel so honoured to have sparked Spinky's idea! haha... don't think anyone can beat me.

Total volume of video files on my computer:

Approx 140GB, maybe 550+ files? this excl my bro's extensive cd/dvd collection.

The television shows I have watched today/ are going to watch today are:
1. Bleach
2. 同心圆
3. 阴差阳错
4. 流金岁月


Five shows that I really like to watch are:
1. Cardcaptor Sakura. One of the first anime i watched as a teenager. I love Clamp's artwork!
2. Fruits Basket. First introduced to it in 2001, it's just really sweet...
3. Desperate Housewives. Hmmm... coupled with Sims 2, does seem to show some truth to Vin's comments? haha
4. Love Revolution. SO TOUCHING! plus Fujiki is so SHUAI!!! actually i like a lot of other Jap shows lar... watch whatever my sister watches...
5. Tokyo Cinderella Love Story. One of the earliest J-drama that i watched and remember. i think the first j-drama i ever watched was "101 proposals" but don't remember much except that the make lead eventually proposed with a NUT (as in the nut that goes with a screw).

Five people I'm passing the baton on to are:

1. Prozac - i'm pretty sure he has a huge storage somewhere...

4. Vin - i know u watch a lot of tv too! esp Ch 8!
5. Conscience - eh... entertain us with your taste in TV programs!

NEWSFLASH

Back to boring old reality. =P

Another normal day. finally bought my new pair of shoes! at Novena Sq. =P then went KK for weekly feel-good session. Played XBOX (some car racing game and "The Hobbit") with a girl (Ika) cos there weren't any boys hogging the XBOX today! hehe...

Then later, Ika, her sister, another girl and I played monopoly! MADNESS! We were trying to play really fast cos the room was closing in half an hour and i was the banker. cards and money flying around! and Ika was caught stealing money from the bank, after which i had to keep stopping her from using the bank as her ATM. Then it turns out that the new volunteer is a Financial Planner (with a subsidiary of Philip Capital) and she arrange a consultation session with me to give me an idea of what financial planning is about. No cost lar... since just introduction. I guess it's good to have an idea of such things. Cannot always be so ignorant!

Sis noticed the new bag. She calls it Obiang. =( And asks what are the chances that i'll need such a bag. and she was surprised that i didn't buy covered shoes. Reminded her not to wear my heels tomorrow (wearing to my new workplace tomorrow) and she confessed that HER new shoes really aren't any good for walking around/standing for long periods of time. THANK GOODNESS I DIDN'T WEAR THEM YESTERDAY!

Bought a cake just now! Wanted to get discount on it so went looking for Mum, who was at NTUC (or maybe she had moved on to another supermarket) but bumped into my friend GT. So i asked if she had the POSB ATM card, she said yes, and i made her dump her bf and dragged her with me. haha... Later i realised that i could have bought the cake tomorrow morning and have used my sister's discount card instead. =P oh well...blur me... I really should read emails more carefully...

Wishes do come true...

Why? cos DOMINIQUE GOT CAUGHT CHEATING! *gasps*

It really wasn't intentional... I really didn't mean for him to get caught! or to cheat for that manner! So Dominique has been nursing a crush on their neighbour, Sandy Bruty and their relationship was waning. So he invited Sandy over for a chat and some jokes. Note that there are now 4 members of the family: D, Angela, Lynette and Ray so i was focusing my energy on the young couple when suddenly ANGELA WANTED TO SLAP D! and they had the caught cheating sign floating above their heads. Angela was furious (-80 relationship points) and refused to sleep with D so had to come up with some makeshift sleeping arrangements for D. Angela contemplated BREAK UP (which means that D would be driven out of the house) but thankfully, the relationship was saved by lots of talking and flirting at the right time.

So how are our young lovebirds doing? Both entered the Military career but Lynette got pregnant on their wedding night so she got maternity leave. Ray rose quickly and is now an Astronaut! But he hasn't reached the peak of his career yet so he needs to improve his mechanical skills, charisma and body.

Then one morning, Lynette gave birth! To a baby GIRL (Susan)! Not that i'm sexist but the Goss family name is already going to die with Dominque's eventual death and i'm really not too keen to let the Trottier name eventually die with Ray. On the same day that Susan was born, our old couple got older: they turned into senior citizens with white hair and all. D doesn't walk around naked as much now, just every now and then. He has more sense these days to wear a red pyjamas around. Probably doesn't want to catch a cold. Anyway, that's good cos when he's old and naked, it kind of makes him look ji ko pek-ish.

Thank goodness that Ray's a Family man and actually want to have more kids. And for some reason, D&A also wants to have more grandchildren and they play active roles in helping to take care of Suzie while her parents work. [wonder if the game was created to mimic real life in this aspect.]

So Lynette's pregnant again! Hoping for a boy so that the Trottier name can live on. Pray that it won't be another girl cos i'm starting to worry that there aren't enough good-looking guys in the university for them to date. =P Realised that Mascots aren't really NPCs so now that Ray left the university, THEY HAVE 1 LESS MASCOT (and shuai4 ge1). Hope that i won't deplete the guys in the college. If Suzie gets a baby sister, little sis might end up experimenting with a different sexual orientation cos the guys in college really are too ugly to date.

------------------------
Will Suzie get a sister (in which case, would be named Gabrielle) or a brother (named Mike)? WILL I EVER GET TO NAME A BABY MIKE?!? Will Ray get caught cheating like his father-in-law? Don't miss the next exciting episode of...
"FAIRVIEW AFFAIRS"! *echo echo echo*

Meet Mr Trottier

I found this absolutely hilarious.
Image hosted by Photobucket.com
as u can see, Mr Trottier walks around with his Cow head in a suit every day. Well... not all the time, cos sometimes he wears his whole Cow costume. [photo taken in the walk-in wardrobe/washroom of the new Goss family home: 2 Wisteria Lane]

He graduated with honours so they finally got married! He doesn't want to get engaged to Jordan anymore, although he wants to flirt with her but fears getting caught cheating. -_- For some reason, Lynette and Ray both want to join the military. Anyway, Lynette is expecting their first child aka the Gosses' first grandchild!

--------------------
Will Ray get caught cheating? or will Angela the Flirt get caught cheating? IS ANYONE GOING TO GET CAUGHT CHEATING?!?!? Stay tuned for the next episode of *echoey voice* "FAIRVIEW AFFAIRS" *echo echo echo*...

THAT SON OF A PIG!

Good looks always comes at a price. When a sim is created, it is conferred personality traits such as grouchy/nice, lazy/active etc... so dear Mr Trottier turns out to be a lazy grouchy bum. But it's really difficult to break engagements (i think) so poor Lynette is stuck with this fiance (who hopefully will be a better man after he graduates/gets married). anyway, realised that as mascot, every now and then, the school coach Sunny will suddenly pop at his (Ray's) house and order him to work out! to which he immediately falls to the ground to start pumping and sit ups etc...

but what really pisses me off is that he's fallen in love with a cheerleader (Jordan)! and for a whole sem, he wanted to get engaged to her! but he doesn't want to break off his engagement to Lynette! That two-timing cow (but actually, i guess technically he's a bull =P)! tsk tsk tsk... what kind of a Family man is he??? starting to feel like 我把鲜花插在牛粪上. Literally.

and that Jordan! suddenly got into a cat fight with another mascot (Aiyana) at Ray's house while he was in class! The two were doing research together and suddenly a fight broke out and there was smoke and expletives (censored, of course: e.g. @ ! #) and Jordan won! must be a 三八! Trying to steal other people's boyfriend but get into secret fights with his team mates!

--------------------------------
Trailer: Ray Trottier is in his final year of studies now. Will Ray still love Jordan if he realises how catty Jordan really is? Can a cow live happily ever after with a b****?! Will he dump Lynette at the altar (again) and try to run off with Jordan? Stay tuned tomorrow for the next episode of "Fairview Affairs"!
--------------------------------

In other news (about myself), we had yet another crazy day of fun and laughter (peace and joy)... the makeover was quite fun too! picked up some interesting tips on make up! tempted to buy the toner/base/foundation/powder... maybe will go back next week to buy...

less than 2 weeks before work starts and i still don't have a complete wardrobe and a pair of working shoes! ARGH!!!

Meet the Gosses

Since i've been playing sims 2 more than doing anything else, let me introduce the family to you guys. Be prepared for a long story.

I started with a character i created: Angela Forrest. Young female who went to Academie la Tour (university) and met the college streaker (Dominique Goss), fell in love and got engaged. Angela asked him to move in with her after she graduated and he proposed marriage!

Since they aren't the Family type (angela's a Flirt and Dominique's Mr Popular), i decided to impose the one-child policy on them. anyway, angela isn't too keen on having another baby. I guess she probably feels that another baby would hinder her flirtatious ways. So they had a baby girl, named Lynette Goss.

Genetics: Dominique's well tanned and has jet black hair, while Angela is fair skinned and has blonde hair. Lynette turned out to be fair skinned with jet black hair: really weird combi actually. Anyway, she's quite the genius! She managed to get all the available scholarships before she ended her teenage years! Hence, we (her parents and I) decided to send her to college earlier.

So in college, i wanted Lynette to date Prof Jones, who was Angela's Prof (and almost married her but i thought the streaker would make a more interesting husband). So kind of like get the daughter to marry the mum's ex. but they fell out and Lynette fell in love with Hayden (not Christensen, not the amazing race contestant). But Hayden was sneaking around in another dorm mate's room so i decided that Lynette needed to open up her social circle.

So Lynette picked up the college directory and called one of the sch's few male mascots: Ray Trottier. So he has a weird surname... But he's a nice guy and they fell in love. Note that Ray's always in his cow costume except when i got a hot tub and i saw that he's actually one of the few good-looking guys in the college! WHAT LUCK!

So at her graduation party, Lynette turned a potential Disaster to a Great Time by proposing engagement to Ray! Of course he agreed! Then she moved back home with her parents.

--------------------
THE COW IS BUGGED!
--------------------
So Lynette's happily at home wanting to have a wedding ceremony. She invited all her friends and they toast champagne to the newlyweds. But everyone had a drink too much and i had to install temporary toilet stalls in Lynette's bedroom. (Desperate times calls for desperate measures. =P)

Then suddenly Ray decides to go home and LEFT LYNETTE AT THE ALTAR! *gasps* So i reloaded my game (i know that's cheating the Legacy game but i can't let her be dumped like that) and i find that THE COW IS BUGGED! He can't move in with her and they can't get married! *double gasps*

--------------------
WILL LYNETTE EVER GET TO MARRY HER TROTTER *ahem* i mean TROTTIER?
STAY TUNED FOR THE NEXT EXCITING UPDATE!
