Playing Pokemon Go Again

I’ve started playing Pokemon Go again.

It started a few months ago, I started playing it while walking to and from work. It was the best time to play because it meant I could hatch eggs and there were also gyms/pokestops on my route.

So I’m now back on it, checking daily even when I’m not leaving the house (we actually get quite a few Pokemon spawn around the house) and always trying to have the app up in the background when I’m walking anywhere to hatch my eggs.

Today though I have taken it to another level and installed Pokemon Go on my old phone. I thought this would be good because it’s easier to have the app open there when walking so, if I have to check a message I don’t have to close the app to open another one, and it will mean my phone battery isn’t drained because of the game.

I don’t know how often I will carry around both phones because I will keep Pokemon Go on my current phone, I just think if I will be out during the day it might be easier to have it on a separate device.

I have also joined a local group chat for Pokemon Go in the hopes that it will encourage me to participate in more raids. So far I only do raids I can do on my own because I don’t have a group of people to go raiding with. I’m surprised that so many people still play Pokemon Go, but at the same time I know people do because the gyms are always changing etc.

So I’m excited to once again be embarking on my Pokemon Go journey, however long it lasts this time.

If you want to add me as a friend my friend code is below, I will send you gifts when I have them and will do my best to open ones you send me if I have room in my bag.

Playing Little Big Planet!

This summer I have decided to finally complete Little Big Planet & Little Big Planet 2.

These games were probably the only ones I ever played on the PlayStation 3. I never personally owned one but my little brother did. So I never really took to PlayStation gaming.

But I was talking to my brother last month about it and he said he would lend me his PlayStation so I could play the games.

So far, I have completed all the levels in Little Big Planet and have started on Little Big Planet 2.

Ideally, I do want to collect all the stickers and items in both games but realistically I know that probably won’t happen. But that won’t stop me from going back and trying.

I’ll let you know if I succeed in my mission or not. But the main thing is I complete all the levels!

Finally Scrapbooking!

I bought this scrapbook last year and it has sat in a drawer in my desk ever since. Then the other night I finally decided it was time to go through my photos and decide which ones I wanted to print to start scrapbooking.

So far I have only done the first page but I have kind of figured out the order I want to put things in so I can’t wait to get into it!

I don’t know if I will share more updates as time goes on – I guess it just depends on how well the finished product looks.

The Schuyler Sisters From Hamilton West End | Sims 4

A new create a sim video where I create the Schuyler sisters from the musical Hamilton!

I have loved the Hamilton musical since I first listened to it and I got to see it on the West End in January and it was so amazing. So of course I wanted to create some cool sims to celebrate!

To download the Sims from the Sims 4 Gallery just search ‘SimmingAndSuch’ or #LondonSchuylerSisters

Welcome to my New Home!

I’m Courtney and I can’t hold a stable blog to save my life.

Yes, this is another blog…

But this time it’s special. Why?

Because it’s actually my own website! And by that I mean, I bought the domain, I paid the hosting fee, I’m all in.

This is my space, and I am going to use it! And keep it!

No more moving blogs. This is my blog home.

I have been through so many different blogs and I felt like it was finally time to settle down and keep one (though I thought that about my last blog). But this time because I have put money into it I think I’m going to keep this one.

For the longest time I have wanted my own website and now finally I am doing it. So here we are.

It’s not going to be anything fancy, realistically it’s still just going to be a blog. But I do want to post more content here. I want this to be the main place where I post content. From YouTube videos to book reviews to any other random thing I feel the need to share with the world. I think it would be nice to keep it one place.

Which is why I have decided to import the posts from my previous blog to here. I didn’t want to start with an empty website when I had already posted a lot of things on a previous blog. I also thought it was cool that I could import everything with a few mouse clicks.

But starting from today the posts will be fresh and I’m excited.

So I hope to see you back here for some new content very soon!

Dublin and Taylor Swift’s Reputation Tour | Saturday 16th June 2018

I’ve finally gotten around to editing my Dublin vlog!

I guess I wouldn’t really call it a vlog but still, I finally edited it. I almost considered not posting at all because I thought maybe too much time had passed since the actual event but I guess a few weeks isn’t too bad.

I promise that I will step back up on my editing game this summer! I currently have about 5 Sims videos that are unedited so please expect to see them very soon! But for now, enjoy this lovely Dublin vlog.
