Has it really been about two months again since I went on Tumblr? I'm in a weird situation right now, so I wouldn't want to say I'm doing well but I'm not doing bad either. Thank you so much for asking though!

Meet The Settlers

Moses Eady (Popularity/Knowledge, 2/3/9/7/4)

Being charming despite his rather reserved nature, it was no wonder that Moses was elected to be the city's builder. He strives to know more at all times so getting this new type of skill definitely suits him.

Regan Shipman (Family/Romance, 4/7/8/3/3)

Regan was quite surprised when she found himself to be voted into the position of mayor. She has always been a hard worker but she would have preferred to put the work into other facets of life.

Rudy Whitehead (Family/Popularity, 6/3/6/4/6)

His whole life, Rudy has always just been there. He hopes to finally stand out in the group of settlers to build his own group of friends, and maybe even his own family.

Kane Reyes (Romance/Pleasure, 5/5/3/8/4)

Kane has never been disciplined, well-structured or possessed any quality that would help building up a city from ground up. The city's first mystery is probably the reason why he decided to join the settlers.

Rhonda Wilson (Knowledge/Family, 6/5/8/3/3)

Rhonda has always pictured herself living as close to nature as possible. Back in her home city, her then newest colleague Marsha brought attention to this project and Rhonda is extremely thankful for this opportunity to live her dream.

Marsha Snodgrass (Knowledge/Pleasure, 5/8/6/3/3)

As the youngest of the bunch - and that by a lot-, Marsha has a lot to prove. However, her adventurous side might make it easy for her to secure her position as a respected member of the settler's circle.

The moment I saw Lifa’s Less-Gendered Face Defaults I fell in love with them because they are exactly what I wanted. The elder female faces always bothered me a little bit due to the heavy changes compared to the adult to elder transition in males, so I edited all the elder female templates accordingly.

You can see previews of each template in Lifa’s original download here.

These are default templates for all templates, so delete your old defaults first before putting them into your downloads folder.

All credit goes to Lifa because the face templates were all made by her. I just tweaked the elder female face of each template.

Like Lifa, I included Argon’s archfix to make broken templates work correctly as well as his alienfix to make the Alien template show up in Bodyshop and CAS. Credit goes to him for those two files.

Thanks for asking! I’m still alive and I guess I’m well? Kind of. It’s complicated. So, I think I need to explain why I haven’t posted anything in like ... the last six months. Time passes by so quickly.

Well, I think the most important thing is that I didn’t play Sims in such a long time. I’m not sure if I like it anymore, but all the games were jarring on my nerves when I last played them. My download folder for TS2 is a mess and the game doesn’t look the way I like it. TS3 was quite okay but it’s either laggy or I have to play with just a few EPs/SPs which I don’t really like. And well, TS4 is mostly the same as TS2, my downloads folder, as well as the last time I played, it was buggy and that really spoiled the fun. 

I’m playing other games from time to time but all in all I’m not doing a lot lately. I’ve been depressed for some time now (already one and a half years I think) and I’m really unhappy with my life now. I don’t get anything done because I’m too scared of doing anything wrong and embarrassing myself in public. I’m not sure if it’s gotten better. I think I’m more confident now (especially about my looks) but on the other side I feel so empty and I don’t know what to do at all. The last week wasn’t good, in particular the nights. I’m asking myself a lot of questions lately. What do I want to do with my life? Are the people I’m “friends” with the people I really want to spend my time with? I just want someone to receive appreciation from for what I do and someone who motivates me so I’m able to get things done. The worst thing might be that I know other people that are depressed and they’re crying and panicking sometimes while I’m just there with a constant mood of “meh”. I have no friends and I should do something about that. Meh. I’m unhappy with who I am and I should do something about that. Meh. I’m failing school and I should do something about that. Meh. I guess I’ll end this for now.
