I recently started playing the first Sims game from 2000. The only other game in the series that I had played was the Sims Freeplay which would've been an excellent game if it wasn't a big cashgrab.
The Sims may not be very advanced for 2018, but it is still incredibly entertaining. I thought I would get bored with it very quickly, but I can play it nonstop for hours!!
This is just a quick little update. I am going to use this space to advertise my Twitter account, @strangepigeon6.
Goodbye!

Infinity War (Spoilers!!!)
In a previous post, I said that I might discuss the plot of Infinity War once the film is a few months old, so people who haven't seen it don't run into spoilers. The Blu-Ray is releasing in a few days, and I'm planning on buying the 4K disc, even though I've seen it in the cinema three times now, once in 3D, again in IMAX 3D, and then in regular 2D.
When I watched for the third time I expected the cinema to be less packed, but no, the screening was almost full! It was great every single time I saw it, but nothing will compare to when I saw it for the first time. My hands were constantly clenched together, and I would brought them to my mouth in shock many times.
First of all, I did not expect Loki (Who I have a massive crush on, like every other girl my age) to die so quickly. I didn't cry, though. In some interview somewhere I heard that he was going to be with Thanos for about half of the film, but that was obviously said to throw some fans off.
I know some people online said that his death sucked, and that it was weird that he tried to kill Thanos with a couple of daggers when he knows all of these fancy magic tricks. That is true, but I didn't really think that at all. There have been petitions going around the Internet to get Marvel to bring him back, but I think it would be a bit cheap if they did that.
When half of the universe died because of the snap, it didn't make me cry either. When Bucky went the guy next to me farted, so I was busy trying not to laugh. (I know, I am very immature.) We all know everybody who got dusted is coming back anyway.
Loads of people hate Star-Lord now too, for getting angry at Thanos for messing everything up. But I thought it was very in character. If everything had gone according to plan and they had defeated Thanos, there wouldn't be a second part of the film planned.
Before IW, Doctor Strange wasn't one of my favourite characters. Now, I think he's awesome. He was really cool in Infinity War. Every character was, really. People have also said that the CGI looks really off when Bruce Banner is in the Hulkbuster. I keep trying to notice that part, but I cannot find it anywhere. Maybe I'm immune to bad CGI.
I have more thoughts about the film, but I can't remember them right now since the last time I saw the film was weeks ago. They may come back once I watch it again, though. Infinity War is currently my favourite film, but it may be dethroned when Avengers 4 comes out.
I saw Ant-Man and the Wasp the day before it came out, and that was really good too! But for the sake of spoilers, I won't say too much about it here. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend it.
And that's all I have to say today.
Goodbye!

Site updates have been slow lately. Sometimes I want to do other things than HTML coding. I'm also just too lazy to come up with new page ideas. These are very lame excuses, I know.
There's only a bit more than a week left until I see Infinity War in my local cinema on April 26th. The film does come out on April 27th, but I'm seeing a special pre-showing where you get popcorn discounts and some free collectible coin. It's in 3D, so hopefully they'll actually add some crazy effects, but they probably won't. I would see it in IMAX if I could see it again, because it is the first Hollywood film to be shot entirely in IMAX cameras.
That's all I have to say for now. I know this is an abrupt conclusion, but I have to go and do something. Bye.

Hello.
This is another one of those boring "Sorry I haven't updated this blog in forever, even though I had loads of free time this week" posts. I apologise for the lack of fresh content on this blog. I did never intend for this thing to get regular updates. It just exists for me to write random stuff whenever I feel like it.
If you want fresh new content, check out my website. Tomorrow I am going to be working on a new page for Misty's World.
To be honest, I never actually edit anything I put on there. I just give it a quick glance over, then I upload it. I'm just really lazy that way.
Hopefully you are having a good week, whoever's reading this. I'm excited for this weekend because it's Easter and I get to eat a lot of chocolate.
Goodbye! ;)

I Wrote A Wikipedia Article
There was this online game I used to play that shut down back in 2011. It did have a Wikipedia page, but there was no info on it. Today I changed that.
CLICK HERE TO VIEW WHAT I WROTE. The writing probably sucks and has loads of mistakes, but who cares. I contributed to an Encyclopedia!

One Vote
You know that little poll thing I put on the sidebar of this blog? It has a whopping one vote on it! WOOHOO!
In other news, I put this fancy little Google Search bar at the bottom of the homepage of Misty's World, which allows you to search all of my main sites, including this blog! Cool, right?
I hooked my laptop up to this mini television that I usually use for my Raspberry Pi. I feel so cool using two monitors!

CSS
I just decided to try and learn some CSS, so I can actually make modern looking websites. I made a generic page using web tutorials. Most of the hard stuff was done by copying and pasting, but eventually I'll learn how to actually do it.
CSS makes websites a lot better, doesn't it. I tried to add some CSS to Misty's World's navigation bar, but it didn't work. Maybe the site doesn't want to move on from the 90s. Now I've realised that so much of my terrible webpage designing skills could be fixed with CSS!
Most people would now go onto their sites and CSSify it, but I'm not gonna do that. There are two reasons why. Firstly, it's too much work and secondly, I want to keep the 90s GeoCities aesthetic that I have on my site. CSS would just make it modern. Eventually it would end up looking like one of those ugly webpages using a flat design.
I would make a separate site to test my CSS skills, but I can't think of any ideas. I would ask people to give me suggestions in the comments section, but nobody actually reads this blog so I'm gonna get nothing.

My Opinion on Mystic Messenger so far
Warning: there may be spoilers for Mystic Messenger down here!
So far I have completed four Mystic Messenger routes. I just completed 707's route and it was by far the best route ever. Apparently I even unlocked the first secret ending! The secret ending adds another story to the game, it's really worth spending hourglasses on.
I didn't realise that each party guest you successfully invite gives you one hourglass! Yesterday I managed to claim about thirty of them! The part of the game where you have to invite party guests was the most difficult part for me. I could've just looked up walkthroughs online, but I was too lazy to do that.
Even though I didn't wake up at one o' clock in the morning for this game, it has taken up a lot of my life. That is why I am taking a short break. Maybe next week I might try Zen's route? I had tried to get his route before, but every time I tried to get hearts for him, I got hearts for Jaehee instead. I may have to play Yoosung's route again, even though he's my least favourite, because I only got the normal ending. That was because I was new to the game so I wasn't as good as convincing the party guests to attend. I'm not going to try and get all of the bad endings, because some of those require me to be a douchebag to the other characters.
During Jumin's ending and after ending, I kind of cringed a bit. If any of that had happened to me in real life, I probably would die of embarrassment. Not because I don't want someone proposing to me, it's just that for some reason I am a really shy person and that would just scare me if everybody was watching some man propose to me.
I don't know if I'll be able to play the DLC or V's route, since they cost a lot of hour glasses. I'm trying to play the game without spending money, so hourglasses are pretty hard to save up for. The things I want to spend hour glasses on are the after endings and the "Valentines Day specials". The after endings are really short to me, but that's because I normally speed through them because I am a fast reader.
When I got to the parts of the game where it shows an image of the player as a faceless girl with brown hair, it was really hard to imagine that girl as myself. It just felt like some random girl was stealing my love interest! That was probably because the girl looked nothing like me and because she was drawn wearing girly outfits I would never wear.
I think the character I would get along with most in real life would be 707. We mainly have the same interests, so we would probably have some interesting conversations. I'd probably get along with Yoosung, too. All of the other characters probably wouldn't find me interesting.
Most of the time I was playing the game without the sound on, so I missed out on a lot of the voice acting. I'm going to have to go through the history and listen to all of the calls properly.
I had a lot of fun with this game. I think I would rate it about eight or nine out of ten. Sometimes it's a bit cheesy, but it's still a great game. If you haven't played it yet, I would really recommend it!
Just a quick note before I leave: None of my blog posts are edited. On my old blogs I used to edit stuff, but the purpose of this site is just to provide a place where I can quickly spill my thoughts. I didn't really intend this post to turn into what it is now. I was just going to say that I was taking a break from the game!

Hi.
It's just me, checking in again. Does anybody read this blog? I linked to it on my website, so somebody must know about it.
For the past few weeks, this mobile game has been consuming my life. I don't normally play mobile games, because they mostly suck and because I normally forget that they are actually on my phone.
The game I have been playing is Mystic Messenger. It's this weird dating simulator app where it simulates a chat room and phone calls instead of a regular visual novel. One good thing about it is that you have to actually play it often so you don't get the bad ending, which stops it from being one of those forgotten apps sitting on my home screen.
I got the bad ending first, because I didn't play it enough, then I got one normal ending with the person I really didn't want to date, then I just got a good ending again, and now I'm starting to play it again. I don't know why I like this game so much.
There are micro transactions in this game, but luckily if you play hard enough you can earn enough virtual money to unlock all the good stuff. Some people stay up at 3AM for this game, but I don't really want to sacrifice my precious sleep for a shitty mobile game.
Maybe I just like this game because it feels like I actually have friends texting me. I don't know. If your into these kinds of games, I would really recommend it. The only thing bad about it is that the most attractive character in the entire game isn't available to date. :(
Unfortunately, if you are a Windows Phone user, this game is not available to you. I'm glad I've moved on to another mobile OS now. It was painful watching all of the other people play all the good games on their phones while I had to wait ages for them to be available for me.
Well, that's all I have to say now. Goodbye!

Hello...
Doesn't the week go by so quickly? One day it's Monday, and then suddenly it's Thursday and almost the end of the working week!
I was just checking in to make sure that this blog isn't dead. Recently I tried to get this blog set up with Windows Live Writer, but the username won't work since I use Blogger with my Google Account and this piece of software was probably created before you had to use a Google Account for everything.
I wish I had a good video editor so I could make good YouTube videos. Windows Movie Maker and this other editor that was included with my PC is all I have. My old videos on my channel make me want to cringe. I'm glad I deleted and made private most of them. My Minecraft videos were the worst. Luckily not many people saw them.
A Barbie video I made got about 2000 views, which I am proud of, so I didn't bother to delete it. It got one dislike though. It was filmed on my old Nokia smartphone which had the worst camera, and it has really bad sound quality, and no background music.
I think I'll have to invest in a better microphone, and use Audacity or something to make my voice sound a bit deeper, because it sounds all high and childish. The only microphones I have are attached to earphones, and this other one that came with a High School Musical karaoke Wii game I used to like as a kid.
That's all I have to write today. I know this conclusion sucks, I'm not very good at them.
Hope you all have a great day!
:)

It's Halloween...
Today is Halloween, and the birthday of about a billion fictional characters... It seems that so many of them were born on this day.
One special birthday today is Noodle's. You know, the girl whose image I have on this blog's sidebar? Happy birthday, Noodle. I know you're not real, but I don't care.
She was so small and cute back in Phase One. Now she's all grown up. I really do love her design. Noodle is extremely pretty.
I'm not dressing up or anything. I just plan to eat sweets. We have so many to give out to all of the little children, there is bound to be some left. At least after this it'll soon be Christmas! Yay!
To all of you out there reading this, Happy Halloween!

Hello...
This blog has been created to replace Misty's old blog, which was hosted on Escargot Spaces. You may be wondering, "Why did you create ANOTHER blog?". Well, I didn't really like the limited theme choices on Escargot Spaces. I could have asked the admin to put one of my choice on there, but I was too lazy to do that. I also prefer Blogger to Wordpress for some reason and I just like owning blogs.
I know I don't blog that often, but it's just nice to have a place where I can write something if I feel like it. The old version of this blog will stay up for a while, unless there is a reason for me to delete it.
Goodbye.
