Words Unspoken Part 3

As promised, I finished part 3 of my Words Unspoken series...

Well, semi-finished because I want to go back and edit parts here and there. Feel free to take a look at my work. I look forward to hearing any feedback!

In this part, I tried to bring out Reimi's character, and what she is capable of. Also, there is more information on the Fates and the Grim Reaper. I know that there is still so much work to do, but at this point, my general thinking was to just get the thoughts out as they came...

Also, I think I had a bit of a screw up with the appearances of the Fates from the first part to the third, forgive me! I'll have to go back and fix it at some point! hehe

Thank you for taking the time to read it, and enjoy! :P

Words Unspoken Part 1

So, my eyes are strained from staring at a computer screen all week, and my fingers are freezing due to the ever dropping temperatures in this area. 

However, I did manage to finish the first part of Words Unspoken! WEEEeeee....I'm going to hibernate for the rest of the weekend, lol

https://leanpub.com/wordsunspoken <---There's the link, check it out, tell me what you think...keep in mind that this is mostly a first draft. I say mostly because it was edited a bit...just a bit...

Enjoy, share, and comment...it's starting to sound like a YouTube video! Ha ha!

Reimi Keyes-Words Unspoken

My life has been leading up to this very moment, where everything I am becomes tested in the way I write and inspire. I have an unusual story to tell but would you hear it?

From the moment I was born, I have been a lone spirit tried and tested by the evil's of the world. My life is in the hands of the fates but I won't go down without a fight. I am who I am because of a specific set of circumstances and even though I have had my weak moments, I have always pulled through. I will always pull through.

I am alone, but I am not weak. Sometimes I wonder if this is how I was meant to find out about my destiny. About the dark future that awaits me, the harsh choice I would have to make. My brother is going to die or am I going to die? If that's my choice, then let death take me...if only it were that simple, if only my destiny wasn't shaped around the ideal of death and the Reaper that haunts me.

NaNoWriMo 2014 - "Words Unspoken"

It's that time of year when a few people decide to take up the challenge of writing a 50K novel in 30 days!

It doesn't have to be perfect, hell, it can be your very raw first draft. The point of National Novel Writing Month is to write! It's entirely free, and anyone can do it, even if you are from another part of the world. This year, I am participating, and much like in July, I have a mind brimming with ideas.

I haven't really worked on an outline....it might be my downfall but we shall see, who knows what will happen in the course of a month. If you are interested in taking up the challenge, then refer to this site and start writing! I'll see you at the finish line!!!! :D  [ NaNoWriMo:  http://nanowrimo.org/ ]

Curious about my idea? Well, here it is: 

A few years back I was creating a Sims 3 machinima series that I came to call, Words Unspoken. It's a dark tale about a young girl who becomes haunted by a grim reaper with whom asks her a life altering question. She has until her 29th birthday to come up with an answer or fate answers for her and the people she is closest to will die. Basically, the story is about love, life, friendship, and responsibility. It follows the young girl and the decisions she makes throughout her life since meeting the reaper.

Well, that's it, that's all...at least for now... If you want to read the story as I go, you can check it out at [ Leanpub: https://leanpub.com/wordsunspoken ]. You don't have to make a purchase to read it, but you can if you want, the pricing system is flexible! As always, thank you for sticking around this corner that no one sees, I'm really grateful that people are interested in what I have to say! 

*Side note - I'll be publishing on these dates "Nov. 7, Nov. 14, Nov. 21, and Nov. 28" on Leanpub so be sure to check it out and tell me what you think! 

**Double side note (lol) - if you're interested in seeing the inspiration for the story it can be found on [YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xzsqrl_NXQg and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpwFi1H-i58 ] I wasn't able to finish the story because of technical issues so I'll do it in writing instead! xD

Happy Halloween!

Tonight's the night for Trick or Treating!! 

Or if you'd prefer, much like I do, stay in and make some tasty food, watch a scary movie and then finish the night with some zombie killing!! Tonight's an L4D2 kind of night! :D

Just a little something to get into the spirit, here's a site full of ghost stories! http://thoughtcatalog.com/christine-stockton/2013/11/50-of-peoples-most-terrifying-true-stories/

Happy Halloween! 

Frankenstein-Mary Wollstonecraft (Godwin) Shelley

When it comes to classic writing, sometimes we find ourselves staring at a page full of words that are hardly used in everyday communication. But, when we really start looking at the words, they form together to create such a beautiful and intricate scene, the words slowly form off the page and paint the picture from the author's mind.

In Frankentein, the author Mary Shelley, uses a descriptive vocabulary within the first few paragraphs (and throughout, obviously, lol) to convey imagery and mood. We are immediately immersed in London as a letter is being written to a Margaret Saville. Her brother writes to her about his journey thus far in venturing north saying, "...as I walk the streets of Petersburgh, I feel a cold northern breeze play upon my cheeks, which braces my nerves and fills me with delight. Do you understand this feeling? This breeze, which has traveled from the regions toward which I am advancing, gives me a foretaste of those icy climes." I don't know if it is because it is actually getting colder in Montreal...we are expecting snow next week, but I imagine myself in his position. I can feel the cold breeze and even breath it in. 

Well, that is just a taste of Frankenstein and if you want to read further more of the story, you can find it here: Frankenstein-Mary Wollstonecraft (Godwin) Shelley <-- check it out, it's a treat for the mind as well as food for thought! 

Horror Movie Daycare

HA!! I wouldn't step foot in this daycare...especially with Samara... she scares the crap out of me!

Scare Week[s] Day 4 - A Tale of Two Sisters

I am a hugely afraid of watching scary movies but there are some that I will watch over and over again. It just so happens that a lot of the time, my favorite horror films are Japanese or Korean! At the top of that list comes "A Tale of Two Sisters".



This story follows two sisters that return home from a mental institution and immediately there is tension between them and the step-mother. Accompanied with a beautiful soundtrack and wonderful storytelling, "A Tale of Two Sisters" is frightening but also thought provoking and tragic. 



Anyway, enjoy the film and Happy Halloween! xD

Gaki No Tsukai!! Scare Week[s] Day 3

Okay, so it's not really scary unless you're afraid of men in nurses outfits! However, there is a part where the comedians must go into the hospital at night that happens to be scary....for them! lol



Anyway, check it out and have a good laugh! xD

Scare Week[s]: Day 2!

I was looking back on my old posts on Facebook from last year and came across this video. It's an advertisement for tires that my brother had shared. At the time, I remember thinking that maybe it was one of his music videos... I was wrong.



Give it a watch and happy Scare Week! lol *I just looked at the calendar and noticed that I'm celebrating a little too early. Ah well, we'll do another scare week next weak!* xD

Improvisation #11 - Sorrow

As you may already know, I am a huge fan of the piano! It's complexity is known to require a high level of dexterity and yet this young fellow has taken this complex instrument, and played a beautiful melody with mainly one hand. It just goes to show that when you put your mind to a task, you can complete it if you just stay strong. In today's society, we are often cruelly judgmental of people and if they display any weakness, whether it be the loss of a limb or mentality just doesn't match what we call "smarts", then we take it upon ourselves to look at that person differently. But, if you do that, you will most likely fail to see the story behind that person's life, or the abilities that they can offer the world. Appearance isn't always everything.



As quoted from Galaxy Quest - "Never give up, never surrender!", I usually find myself repeating this line, even though the movie was somewhat ridiculous, this line has offered me the right mantra to get through some difficult times.



I hope you enjoy this video, and always remember that you need to work hard to achieve your dreams! Good luck, bonne chance!

The Evil Within: Headless Glitch (Sleepy Hollow?)

I've been away too long! SORRY!!!! I fell behind on my videos so to bide some time I'm sharing this interesting look into "The Evil Within". Despite being too horrified to play the actual game (and too poor to purchase it, as well as lack of hard drive space) I was curious enough to at least check out this glitch! It's an eye opener and my morning's coffee spewed everywhere as I laughed heartily, a long time needed. Happy Monday, and it's scare week as Halloween fast approaches! :P

Batman Evolution - ThePianoGuys

I still can't believe that Batman has been around since the 60's! He's a very well fit old geezer! I was exposed to Batman by my mother when she would turn on the television Saturday mornings. It was a ritual...or maybe it was just to keep me preoccupied, either way, Batman is my hero! Anyway, check out this video by The PianoGuys who do a compilation of the evolution of Batman Music starting for the old television series!

Alan Wake P11

Guess what day it is~????? It's FRIDAY!! Woot! And with Friday comes my weekly game play video! This week, Alan Wake begins to uncover the truth about Alice and her captors, and I try desperately to get my screaming under control! The video is a little longer than normal but there was so much story to include.



As always, enjoy, like, comment, share, and have a fantastic weekend! Thanks for watching! 

My Sims 4 Creations

Well, ever since Sims 4 was released a few weeks ago, I have been stuck to my screen creating homes madly!

It's my newest addiction...

The Tumbleweed
(1 Bed, 1 Bath)

So let's begin with my first creation! I call it The Tumbleweed (30 x 20 lot worth approximately 36,000 Simoleons) and it was published the first day Sims 4 was released! That's how excited I was to finally start building homes! :P

This being the first home, I wanted to experiment with the build tools of which I've come to really enjoy using. They are easier to use and way faster than previous versions of Sims.

"The Tumbleweed is a small comfort home with a garden to sit back and relax while enjoying a good book."

The Plantation
(3 Bed, 3 Bath)

Following the Tumbleweed is The Plantation (40 x 30 lot worth approximately 162,000 Simoleons)! Inspired by the plantation in Swamp Fever from Left 4 Dead 2. It was a house that I fell in love with when I first started slaughtering zombies, so naturally it would make it into my Sims game! 

Chocolate Oasis
(2 Bed, 2 Bath)

After the Plantation, I wanted to try and create something more modern. Chocolate Oasis (40 x 30 lot worth approximately 161,000 Simoleons) was my first attempt and it got its name from its color and my constant craving for chocolate while building it.

"A spacious and beautifully decorated modern-contemporary oasis that is ready for entertaining or finding that next inspiration."

Willow Beech House
(4 Bed, 2 Bath)

Next up is Willow Beech House (40 x 30 lot worth approximately 146,000 Simoleons). This house was built without any previous planning. Literally, I just started putting empty rooms down on the grid and let my creative mind explore! The result, a modern home with an attached garden. I mean, who doesn't want a beech tree that is a part of the house?

"A house built for the creative soul. If you have a creative block then why not step outside and view the garden with wraparound balconies on all levels."

Lady Blue Mansion
(5 Bed, 3 Bath)

Lady Blue Mansion (30 x 20 lot worth approximately 226,000 Simoleons) was inspired by a picture of a home I found somewhere on the interwebz, that is now lost again to me. Even though the exterior is sort of a replica to that picture, the inside was all my idea except for the ballroom. That was my sweet's idea. xD

"Super luxurious and eventually affordable! This beautiful blue mansion comes complete with a ballroom for entertaining those political Sims in your life!"

Gothic Rose Manor
(4 Bed, 2 Bath)

So, after all these homes, I was kind of disappointed with the Goth family default home. It was a nice enough home but I thought I would create my own Gothic home. Thus, the Gothic Rose Manor (30 x 20 lot worth approximately 172,000 Simoleons) came to be! It was inspired by Victorian times. A dark, grey, and dreary exterior, and brightly colored red interiors. I was thinking about "The Corpse Bride" with the duel contrasts between two worlds. Typical Tim Burton, and I'm a fan!

"Built during an era that was fascinated by death, the Gothic Rose was home to a woman who was in love with Death itself. Her heart beats throughout this house in longing and sorrow."

The Hive
(4 Bed, 2 Bath)

All the while I was building Gothic Rose Manor, I was already thinking of building another home! It had to be futuristic and bees were invading my comfort zone. The Hive (30 x 20 lot worth approximately 322,000 Simoleons) was the result of bees entering our apartment! It took days to finish, a full weekend from the time I opened my eyes to when they shut temporarily to sleep. Since I created a family of aliens, I figured they would need a place to stay!

"Sims come from all over the world to study at this epic center for science and engineering located in the middle of a scorching desert!"

Minimum Condominium
(1 Bed, 1 Bath)

The smaller default lots must have been modeled after a trailer-camper park (not that I have anything against them, I actually wouldn't mind a simple living environment!) However, I figured that some new smaller homes were in demand! Especially for the not so rich Sims. My next project, Minimum Condominium (30 x 20 lot worth approximately 61,000 Simoleons), might have been a little on the pricey side...sometimes I get a little carried away! he he

"An open concept modern condo that is decorated with simplicity in mind. Its spacious rooms offer a welcoming environment for guests to stop by at any moment!"

Riverside Bungalow
(1 Bed, 1 Bath)

As soon as I completed Minimum Condominium I went to work on a lesser expensive home! Riverside Bungalow (20 x 15 lot worth approximately 17,000 Simoleons) was the result and I was quite pleased that I finally made a decent budget home! WEEE!


"A modern starter home that fits any budget!"

Gummy Bear Manor
(6 Bed, 6 Bath)

Finally, after creating so many homes, I really wanted to create a replica of my current mega mansion!! Just kidding....I wish I lived in a mansion.... Gummy Bear Manor (50 x 50 lot worth approximately 706,000 Simoleons) took even more hours than the Hive to build, however in my opinion, it was worth it! This would be my almost dream home!

"Welcome to my humble abode! Three levels of everything a rich sim needs! Bold color schemes and beautiful landscaping complete this manor and offers room to grow a family."

Well, that's about all of the homes I created for now. Of course, I will continue to make Sims homes, and they can only get better! If you want to download these homes for your Sims you can find them in my library under "GreatGB"! Don't forget to follow me for more creations and check out my Sims. I created the L4D survivors and Alan Wake and his wife! That's it, that's all at least for now and happy gaming!

Alan Wake P10

I've been doing a lot of thinking...but mostly a lot of Simming! As a result, I've come up with some interesting story ideas that will be perfect for this year's Nanowrimo!! Even though the ideas are still buzzing around in my head...I'm finding it hard to sleep even, I still want to finish Alan Wake! Sticking to my Friday schedule, here's part 10!!!



I hope you enjoy, but be warned that my usual screaming takes place! he he....

Alan Wake P9

OOooo, it's Friday! Alan Wake continues and it's getting juicy! lol

In this part, Alan has to meet up with his wife's kidnapper at an abandoned coal mine, but along the way the darkness is getting intensely worse. He is attacked by the taken, and objects are now being possessed! OMG!

Thank you for watching and enjoy, comment, subscribe, share the Gummy Luv, do what you gotta do, have a great weekend.... and don't work too hard....or study too hard... life is too short to be taken too seriously! xD

New Look!

Every now and then I get a little bored with looking at the same working space! This goes for my blog as well...

So, I have decided to change things around a little bit!

I have added a new layout and a picture of my current gaming hero (Alan Wake) staring at you as you read all sorts of posts on my blog. he he It's not much of a change but at least my eyes won't get bored again... at least, for now.

Currently, I am working hard to finish Alan Wake, part 9 will be out tomorrow...it seems that Friday's are going to be the official video upload, so keep an eye out!

Well, that's it, that's all, at least for now...I have more video editing to do!
