Nerdy Post


Do you ever wonder what God (or an alternate higher power) was thinking when He made you?
Why the stubbornness? And this hair color?
I have wondered this ever since I started playing The Sims in middle school. This is my nerdy side. I would love to tell you about all my sims and their characteristics, but that's a little too personal for me. Don't judge me.
I love going in to create a new sim. Of course I love creating ones that emulate myself or the people I know. It really makes me think hard about us as humans and the things we do often that express our personalities and define who we are.
I can't imagine the process God went through.
I must admit I change things about myself in The Sims. I bestow a "lucky" personality trait upon myself, for one. Well, that's mostly because it makes playing the game easier since bad stuff hardly happens.
True, I am very spoiled in my life, but of course, we would all love for life to be as easy as possible.
So what was he thinking?
"Oh I will make her stubborn. And she'll have a southern accent. It will be hilarious. I can't wait to see her face this and that. And why not make her a lover of the ocean and a hater of football? Oh, and sociable yet distant. She would be perfect for her stubborn father and loving mother."
It's a curious thought.
It makes me wonder what's next in my action list?
What's after this quarter-life crises?
"I'll remove most of her friends and comforts, then..."
Then what?
There's a lot of emptiness now. So what are we going to fill it with big man?
I must admit I'm excited and anxious to see.
