Hi everyone! My name is Keruri. I've been a Simmer since Sims 1, but couldn't play Sims 3 because my ancient computer doesn't have the system requirements to run it. I recently bought a PS3 and immediately bought Sims 3 to go with it! I got off to a bit of a rocky start since the first disc I bought errored, but I exchanged it for a less defective copy and I haven't had any technical problems since. So far I haven't really done anything besides raising a family, but hope to learn about some cool features that I can try!
I tend to create a family and stick with them until the end. This may be a very long period of time, especially depending on how regularly I play, but I almost always return to my original creation. When the original parents eventually die, I continue playing the family with one of their children -- usually the youngest, who I tend to keep in the household even after he or she has grown up. In Sims 2, I was once up to the family's eighth generation.
As for myself, I'm a university student working towards my BA in history and then I hope to get my BEd. In the little spare time I am afforded after all my schoolwork, I like to read, see friends, work out, and, of course, play Sims! (among some other games.) I also volunteer in a kindergarten class once a week if I have the time. Some people may say the opposite, but those little kids keep me sane! I'm also addicted to my phone.
This website and forum look great: informative and welcoming! From what I've read and seen so far, everyone seems very friendly, which is awesome. Hopefully I will learn some great tips that will enhance my Simming experience!
