Life of The Landgraabs

by BIbupp

This is the story of my life, living in the "peaceful" town of Sunset Valley (with all the melodramas of life). There is a feud in this town with the Altos and the Landgraabs. I am a Landgraab, Malcolm Landgraab and I am the next heir for my family. So will I continue it on for generations or will I just run away from it all? Based on The Sims 3.

2. From Childhood To Now Being a Teenager

Chapter 2: From Elementary School to Now Being a Teenager

Today is a Monday and I hate Mondays. Already I am sick of school, I've had enough. As usual the yellow school bus arrived at 8:00 AM and it took me to school at approximately 8:30am and school starts at 9:00PM-3:00 PM, so it was half an hour early. 6 hours of dreaded school, some say that they're training us to go from elementary school to "High" school; all I think it is about to getting us ready for the future.

. . .

I like school at times and especially not today as nothing happened. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday; school was all boring and nothing happened. It was just the same old classes with the same old teachers, with minimal effort required. Though there are some interesting kids in my class like Mortimer Goth, Bella Bachelor, something Alvi, I can't remember his first name, I think it is Miraj and, oh, Kaylynn Langerak with her black and white costume that looks like a maid's outfit. I think that is it.

I will miss elementary school and so will all the rest of my classmates including Claire who will also become a teenager. And so farewell Elementary school, though it is in the same school. The only problem to me was, that to all of us, it's important but to the school and teachers, there was no graduation party, no farewell speeches just expecting us to be here at school next week with different classes, topics and teachers.

. . .

Today is a Saturday and my birthday is today! In a few days it would be Claire's birthday and the other kids in my class with have theirs over the next few day too. I can't now believe that I am now a teenager, thirteen years old. My parents had a little birthday party, though my best friend, Claire wasn't present at the party as she was sick with the flu unfortunately. She still sent a present to me which was very kind of her, a true friend.

As now I am a teenager, I think big changes are going to happen in my life but it is the future. Every time I keep thinking about how old I am, I get flashbacks of all the good times I had as a child. Now that I am a teenager people still call me a child or look at these children. Why am I being assumed as being a child? I guess it's something I'll never really understand.

My funny parents sung happy birthday to me and made things feel a lot better. I got a few presents like the MultiTab 6000, some hobby magazines and Captain Starplanet Arcade Table, it was this year's top rated game, with intergalactic adventures and blasting aliens to pieces. These are awesome presents! These toys added more to my collection but I think will be using the MultiTab 6000 a lot and it costs §750 Simoleons! That's a lot of money but not for my parents, who own the Landgraab Industries Empire. There are dozens of products that they have made and own, for example, the ÜberVision Panoramic television, the 36" HiFi Plasmondo TV, oTron 200 Thinking Computer, XS 4258p Laptop, 85g Audio Explosion Stereo, Karaoke Explosion Machine, 4258g Alarm Clock and the super top secret, the Money Tree.

My mother bought some nice casual clothes also, but I don't know how good they'll look on me and then they gave me Claire's present... It was a book, 'Where's Bella by Alexander Goth.' I love going to the local library, there was also a card and it read, "Dear Malcolm, Hope you have a happy birthday from your friend. P.S, I want to see you ASAP." What did she want to see me about? Anyway it was a really nicely decorated card and seems to be made by her.

. . .

On Sunday, nothing much really important happened though I was excited playing with all my presents and playing with the wonderful MultiTab 6000 and playing lots and lots of social games, listening to tabcasts and reading books online, which is handy when on the go.

The Captain Starplanet Arcade Table was so much fun to play with, blasting aliens has never been this much fun, the story behind it was not lacklustre, it was riveting, I felt the sense of passion that the fictitious Captain Starplanet has. Too bad that Claire was still sick with the flu, so I'll wait until she gets better and then I can go and see her.

Sadly, on Monday is my first day of "High" school or "Secondary" school. The school is the same school I went to for "Elementary" school, the Community School of the Gifted, the name doesn't make complete sense as none of the students are really gifted, well maybe except me and a couple of others. I wonder what "High" school is going to be like, will it be crazy and different or organised and lots of hard work?
