Summer Holidays, Hayfever, Work and The Sims!

Well, that's me on my Summer Holidays (not officially but this week is only remediation, of which I have nothing to take part in) and to be honest it's been ok so far. I have been playing Sims 3 a lot, which has helped take the edge off those long days of mostly doing nothing. I am quite far on in it. So far I have created myself, gotten married, had a child, gotten to the top level of my career, had my baby grow to a toddler then to a child then to a teenager then to a young adult and she is now in the Law Enforcement Career, which I'm sure I (my Sims me) or my wife am not happy about I am the Emporer of Evil and my wife is a Thief. Anyway, so my wife died and everyone was sad but then my daughter was given an offer of resurrecting my wife. Naturally we took the lab that gave the offer, up on it as we want our wife and mother back. However, it didn't go as well as expected. She is back but she is in ghost form :S not the greatest thing that could have happened but I believe we can work round it. Anyway, we were living in a floor house with only one bedroom, which I then added a bedroom in the upstairs so there was space. This extension only cost a couple of thousand § (Simoleons), which I was glad of as we were still quite poor at this stage. However, we started to make more and more money as me and my wife moved up through our careers and then I decided we needed to move so naturally I evicted a family from their house because it was the one I wanted, which is fair seeing as you can only have one active household. So we are now in this amazing house, which I think I'm in love with as it is the type of house I want when I can afford one (but doubt I'll ever get ;( - oh, well). So the family are now in this new house and I'm hoping to my daughter will move out soon and start having her own life because she is forever getting in my way haha. I have also noticed that the real me and my Sims me have something in common in that we both eat cereal a lot.

However, my Sims 3 experience is being slightly hampered by my hayfever, which has reared its ugly head once more and causing me months of displeasure. I must say that near the beginning of the hayfever season I was fine with very little symptoms, which is unusual for me, but this time was different and I was extremely happy. However, my being happy soon ran out when it started to get very bad, very quickly. I feel that it ruins my summer, which I was hoping that I could enjoy due to it not being as bad at the start. However, I have a new hope as this morning I received a little parcel from a certain Pharmacy company that contained a gadget that you stick up your nose and uses light therapy to stop cells producing histamine which is causing my eyes to nip. This could help me enjoy my summer. This as well as the ioniser I am hoping to receive tomorrow from aforementioned company. This will help get rid of any pollen in the air in my room and may also help me get a better sleep (this is not high up on my list of priorities right now as I get a fairly good sleep but find I go to bed at 12 and wake up at 9 and will still be tired because I haven't had a good sleep). So I'm hoping to god that these combined with my tablets and my nasal spray which I suppose I should use even though it occasionally gives me the most putrid taste in my mouth when I stupidly put my head back and the spray goes into my mouth. It's not nice but if it would help then I'm willing to take on the taste for the sake of not sneezing.

I really hope this will work because I am wanting to work and I don't believe I would be able to if I had my hayfever badly. I would rather not go into work with eyes red and nose running and generally looking like I am coming down from being high on something. That is another sore point, work. The fact is I have none. I am genuinely wanting to work but will anyone hire me, no! Why? Because I don't have experience, that's why! What I would like to know is how I am expected to get experience when no one will hire me because I have no experience. It baffles the brain. Maybe also because I'm 19 with no experience. Well I say 'no' experience, I had a job over Christmas in Glasgow City Centre which was not the most amount of fun but I am very greatful for the chance as it meant I earned money that I could then spend. But now I am relying on my parents for money. I am not able to buy anything and when I do it has to be something I really need/want otherwise I say to myself that I will have to wait. This is intensified by the fact I am going to London in July and need spending money but currently only have about £75. Well I have £46 on the way from a post office account and I am hoping to god that I get my tax rebate, which, if I do, will give me enough money for London. It is booked, so therefore I am going but I would like to make sure that I am comfortable down there and have money for food. I hope not to rely on my overdraft which, of course, is there if I need it but I would really rather not use it. I can't wait to go to London if I have enough money or not because I really enjoy being there and find it so much fun just travelling about. I am hoping to go see Woman in Black whilst I'm there. I seen it when the touring company came to Glasgow but I expect a West End version to be of excellent quality.

Anyway, that is my update so far. It has been quite a long post but I just wanted to get all this down as I have nothing better to do and it is always nice to come back to it and see things I have done in the past that I have forgotten (however, it might not be viewed in the future if I forget about the blog as well :S).

Byeeeee
