I hope they've learnt their lesson if they ever add them to TS4.<br /><br />I'm about the same age as Daniel and Susannah and I cannot imagine having to live among a bunch of people in their early 20s these days! So yeah...time for a new place, I think. I'd like to do it soon, though it'll depend on what sort of house I can find for them and what kind of money they'll have.<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-51616757076809367762015-10-07T11:10:41.080+11:002015-10-07T11:10:41.080+11:00Ah, I miss the wall banging from TS2 apartments!

TS3 apartments were so lame, so I totally hope TS4 apartments end up taking after TS2 more. <br /><br />I can see these guys being totally over the apartment life now and ready for their own place, especially with all those new college grads around. Yay for their engagement! :)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04990333808465359314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-35684116795714164832015-09-25T12:39:37.360+10:002015-09-25T12:39:37.360+10:00Thank you!

But whatever it feels like, after six happy years, I think it's time. And I'm looking forward to the babies too.<br /><br />I often ignore the apartment noise but I'm going to have to pay closer attention now. It'd be interesting if EA made it so that playful/outgoing neighbours were more likely to be noisy than serious/shy sims but I doubt they put that much thought into it!<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-78808329675761414932015-09-15T14:46:08.982+10:002015-09-15T14:46:08.982+10:00Yay for another wedding!

I can play around for a while before hearing noise. It's easy for me to forget about it sometimes. I guess most of them are just really polite.Fabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15739717545188281648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-86931637443742187532015-09-07T09:56:12.790+10:002015-09-07T09:56:12.790+10:00Yeah, the apartment noise is quite frequent! It ma...Yeah, the apartment noise is quite frequent! It makes sense when the neighbours are Tim, Mitchell and Eddie but not so much if it was a quiet elderly couple or something. I have, though, had neighbours who have kept me from sleeping and it wasn't even in an apartment! My previous neighbours LOVED having parties. On weeknights. With loud music. And with vuvuzelas during the Asian Cup, which was lovely. They've moved, thank goodness!<br /><br />The $20,000 is staying in the bank for a house. :) They'll have to use whatever is in their household funds for the wedding, which is probably just going to be clothing, food and "marriage licence", seeing they're having it at Nick and Sarah's house. <br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-89595468010257790612015-09-07T09:45:46.284+10:002015-09-07T09:45:46.284+10:00They talked about getting engaged last round, so y...They talked about getting engaged last round, so you could almost say they were unofficially engaged. :) And I know, I have FOUR weddings this round. So far. Not sure if anyone else will get engaged and set a wedding date yet, lol. <br /><br />You know, I had Levi and Will down shortly after I played them last and now I've completely forgotten which one is which again! I don't remember it taking this long with Camilla and Lila but maybe it did, lol. By the time they're teens, it should be easier...I hope!<br /><br />I actually don't think I have any apartments that are one per floor! Though Tanja made one for the Goodies this year that I will probably plop in at some point. <br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-6306293131425961252015-09-07T09:42:04.463+10:002015-09-07T09:42:04.463+10:00Nothing in mind yet!

I'm thinking 3 bedrooms might be okay if the rooms are big enough to share (assuming they have two more kids) but I'd want four bedrooms if they're smaller. :)<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-27426728962274502402015-09-07T09:40:34.395+10:002015-09-07T09:40:34.395+10:00Heh, I am hoping for some nooboos after the weddin...Heh, I am hoping for some nooboos after the wedding! Or at least one, lol. I'm going to look around for houses. They have about $12,000 in their household funds, along with the $20,000 in the bank (which is building interest). I use the apartment hack too, so they would have sunk a ton of funds into this apartment when they moved in and they'll get that back too when they move out. They'll probably have $45,000 at least. <br /><br />The apartment noise was very cool this round, probably because it was only in the living area! I could completely ignore it if I wanted to, as it wasn't disturbing their sleep at all. Any object against a wall (except wall hangings) absorbs the noise, so a 4-tile-across bedroom with a double bed against the shared wall and an end table on either side takes care of that pretty nicely!<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-61468608903178824922015-09-07T09:31:46.390+10:002015-09-07T09:31:46.390+10:00Zac is a pretty serious little guy, really, so I t...Zac is a pretty serious little guy, really, so I think he'd understand why this might be something Daniel and Susannah might want to share themselves, rather than having him blabbing it!<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-8547194219412121942015-09-06T18:57:28.781+10:002015-09-06T18:57:28.781+10:00I thought the same as Maisie, that these two were ...I thought the same as Maisie, that these two were already engaged!

I thinks it's a bit too much (like all those kind of things EAxis added), I mean I do hear my neighbors, but it's not like they are keeping me from my sleep or anything. In this case it did make sense though with the neighbors being college-graduates.<br /><br />I'm sure that ยง20.000 will come in handy, for the wedding or if they find a house.Tanjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07054869544598274885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-32750400369021557322015-09-06T15:15:28.548+10:002015-09-06T15:15:28.548+10:00So I thought that these two were already engaged! ...So I thought that these two were already engaged! They have been together quite a long time, that I just skipped ahead mentally I guess! I'm excited for the wedding, you have tons upcoming! And there should (hopefully) be a bit of a baby boom after it all to. Nice seeing Levi and Will and little Theo over to play. I do not know the twins apart, and feel comforted that you don't ether. I really try to recognize your sims, but those two boys always get me. They'll be teens soon, I'm looking forward to that, and for Zac too! <br /><br />I will have to listen to the walls the next apartment I play. Most of mine are one per floor, that it doesn't pop up often, and I don't usually have sound very high. I definitely will though keep my ears open though! <br />maisiehttp://www.retromaisie.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-9111166732071375402015-09-06T03:25:20.717+10:002015-09-06T03:25:20.717+10:00Yay, congrats on the engagement and I can't w...Yay, congrats on the engagement and I can't wait to see what kind of house they get.

And that's funny about the noise. That is very realistic, but it used to bother me when I played, for my sims to be woken up, so I always designed apartments not to have bedrooms sharing walls with other apartments or having closets in between-- but it is real life to have annoying neighbors! Maybe they'll be able to go house shopping before too long since they're saving on the wedding.ShannonSimsFanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04927796423854363819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-7056784817783242862015-09-04T10:15:55.812+10:002015-09-04T10:15:55.812+10:00Congratulations to Susannah and Daniel!
