I used to play The Sims when it was first introduced, like 6 years ago. At that time, I didn’t have little babies and toddlers to deal with and had the home all to myself. So, I could spend four hours straight living in my Sims world. I don’t need to eat because I can get it from the fridge for $25. I can change my clothes with just a trip to the wardrobe.

Through the years, they have added many new things to The Sims. But I still like the old one where life was less complicated. I just need to set up home for 8 persons, send 7 to work, one at home and without using any cheat codes like klapaucius or rosebuds, I will turn them into millionaire. I make the working ones trained for their skills. I make only Libran Sims because all they care is to sleep, eat and go to the toilet. Very easy to please, unlike Virgoan Sims who get depressed over dirty homes or playful Sims who are forever looking for socialising.

Recently, my toddler discovered The Sims during a trip to the cousins’ house. Now, we have The Sims back in my laptop and the control freak in me rules again! Just last night, I played for too long and missed a lot of paid post opportunities from PayPerPost. But it is worth it. So therapeutic.
