The Sims 3 - Cow Plant

 Yes. The man eating  cow plant from The Sims 2 University has come to The Sims 3------------Store as premium content. 

 The cow plant in sims 3 is pretty useless (at least in my game). After waiting for 3 to 4 days of starving the plants, without petting/playing with/ feeding, the plants will start to show its cake bait to attract the unsuspecting sims who are so greedy for the cake.

Until now, I still not sure if being eaten by the plant will bring death or not, because every sims who were eaten in my game would come back again somewhere in the sims world after a while or being regurgitated by the plants. I searched through The Sims 3 Forum and some stated that death by cow plant is 50/50. If death happens, the ghost will come back in purple color - which is the colour for ghosts who died from starvation. Cow plant cant really eat children and old sims though, as these category sims who being swallowed would be vomited out by the plant. Also, cow plant wont eat stinky sims!! So smart ehhh... 

Look Cow Plant in action!

You can Praise/ Scold your cow plant after it has successfully eaten the stupid sims who came close to it. The praises and scolds will either encourage or discourage the plant from continuing to behave that way. The  Elixir of Life (as what The Sims 2 called the extract from milking ) enables the sims who consume it to return to their beginning of their life stage!

The Cow Plant comes together with other useless items like cow plant arcade machine (meh, i have plenty of arcade machines from The Sims 3 Late Night, other store sets), cow plant spring rider (meh again, i have many spring riders from The Sims 3 Generations and store sets too) and the rest are just decorations..

 Buy the set from The Sims 3 Store if you dying to have to plant in your game!

Happy Simming! And Merry Christmas!

Aikido and I

This semester is coming to its end and so is the Aikido lesson that I am taking. (it is officially ended since we already performed today during the Festival Pendidikan Kokurikulum).

Ok...I am going to write this entry in Q&A form.
So, here we go...

=======================================================================================================

Q1: What are the reasons that you choose to take this course instead of others?
A: I want to learn something new. (CEH...other subjects also new to you and you can also learn new things la). This is not the sole reason I am taking Aikido actually. When I was trying to sign up for co-curricular activities, already many interesting other activities like swimming, photography, etc have already fully signed up by other students. Hence, this left me not much choices to choose from. Even, if there were places for swimming/photography, i would not choose them as I know the basics and there are not new for me. (CEH...you only say this because you fail to eat the good grapes and now you are saying the grapes are sour only).

Besides that, I really want to do something outside the classroom, something which involves more physical activities instead of being confined in classroom again after daily classes and learn something theoretical. I want to sweat, to stay active and keep fit at the same time. This led me to making decision of choosing eventually.

=======================================================================================================

Q2: What is Aikido actually?
A: Aikido (合気道) is a Japanese martial arts created by Morihei Ueshiba. It is rather softer type of martial arts as compared to those more aggressive ones like Karate and Taekwando. Also, Moriher Ueshiba's goal was to create an art that practitioners could use to defense themselves while at the same time protecting the enemy from inflicting injuries.

Throughout the lessons, Sensei Tee (he taught us Aikido in this semester) always emphasizes on circular, perpendicular movements which can be used to redirect the attacker's force and momentum thus conquering the attacker with very little physical strength. Thus, this means that a small person is able to move a big person if he can perform Aikido techniques effectively.

To read more about Aikido, please visit Wikipedia or Aikido official webpage.

=======================================================================================================

I just write two questions for now in this post. I will try to write more in coming entry/ries talking about what I have learned in Aikido classes and may be about the performance on Ko-K Day.
