All Aboard!

23 Oct

I made short work of Choco Rio Grande once the tickets came. This was because Level 515 of Farm Heroes was tough to pass and I had all this energy, so crushing candies was the best activity especially in the cold rainy weather.

Eventually, I did pass Level 515 and am now at Level 517 while for Candy Crush, another set of tickets came for me to go on to Toffee Tower; I am now at Level 699. I have been alternating between devices, using both the iPad and the laptop.

And when on the laptop, as if candies and farm animals are not enough, the curious in me tried King.com’s new game: Candy Crush Soda. Similar to the candy version, this game requires one to pop soda bottles and rescue gummy bears. Quite interesting… Oh dear, will this be another new addiction?

Ah! Finally…

20 Oct

You got to believe in yourself regardless of what you face. Last week, I was just lamenting that I was still stuck at Level 677 of Candy Crush when my other fellow candy crushers have managed to pass it. I didn’t believe I could not do the same, after having this feeling that the level has gotten easier.

So I was crushing candies like a maniac over the weekend, in between playing golf like a pro on tour (I played for three consecutive days).

Guess what? I finally crossed Level 677! Yay and double yay. After so long, I finally crossed the dastardly level of all dastardly levels. Tickets have come my way and I am now at the new chapter, Choco Rio Grande.

Why Can’t I Do it?

17 Oct

I find it incredulous that four friends have managed to overcome Level 677 of Candy Crush and I am still stuck. I noticed since its latest update, the level feels slightly easier; maybe that’s why they have moved on. I should go back to trying because of late, Level 515 of Farm Heroes is so hard!

A Little Bit Unstable

14 Oct

The recent October update for Farm Heroes is a little bit unstable. I would be in the midst of harvesting the fruits when the app would just quit unexpectedly. This has happened several times already, wasting a life and a bumper harvest.

I am just wondering if it is due to the fact that I have yet to update my iPad to OS8. I am still holding out on the OS update as I feel the new features does not quite benefit me. Furthermore, I have heard that it can slow down the device especially if the unit is an old one. Now my iPad Mini is the first generation and so far, it’s been fast and I am happy with it. So I don’t want to spoil things. If this is the case, maybe I have to accept the fact that my farm will crash every now and then.

Becoming One of Them

10 Oct

I used to shake my head and laugh at those Candy Crush addicts who would resort to texting or calling their friends or family for lives/tickets when they run out/need it. Well you know what? I have become one of them now. Not for Candy Crush but for Farm Heroes.

I am resigned to the fact that I am never going to cross Level 677 of Candy Crush so I stay focused on my farm. Two nights ago, I finally passed Level 505 (of Farm Heroes) and had to ask for tickets. My studious M1 has deactivated her Facebook account to focus on her studies, so I cannot be asking her for ticket. With only hubby and Rooney (official pet number one who has an FB account too) to rely on, I am still one ticket short.

In the middle of the night, in desperation, I sent ticket requests to those I know who plays the game and when there was no immediate response, I didn’t know what to do and went to bed feeling incomplete.

The next morning, when there were still no tickets that came my way, I WhatsApp-ed my gym trainer for help. Yes, unbelievable but I did this.

What Holiday?

7 Oct

We came home and felt drained. Somehow it felt as though we never went away. Things were put away and habits kicked in. I went about my Farm Heroes with a vengeance and managed to pass the incredibly hard 498. I am now at Level 503. Zookeeper Battle was also played while waiting for lives to recharge for Farm Heroes. And we also played with Roo, official pet number one, who missed us for the last four days.

As for Candy Crush, I only went in to send tickets and lives to friends. No point aggravating myself.

The girls woke up on time and are in school today, hubby left early for a meeting and I am in the office. The holiday is definitely over.

30 Sep

I may be avoiding frustration by not playing Candy Crush Level 677 but frustration is following me! Farm Heroes is currently providing it at Level 486. Aaaargghhhh… Why do this to me?

One Crazed Farmer

26 Sep

Level 677 of Candy Crush continues to torment me. So I vent my frustration in Farm Heroes. Thankfully, there’s progress in the farm until now. I am at Level 480.

Last night, I was like one crazed farmer using 4 devices at one go, swapping between the laptop, iPad and both phones. Did I succeed? I wish. I guess I will be farming throughout the day. Hey, it’s Friday and I can take it easy at work.

I Love My BMW!

25 Sep
Look ma, I won!

Look ma, I won!

BMW1

at Tee Box #1.

I love my BMW and my golf. Combining both, you have the BMW Golf Cup International for amateurs. Yesterday I took the day off from work to go play at the tournament; my third year participating.

And this time, I did good. Achieving a personal best, I came out tops (1st placing) and qualified for the National finals in November! Words cannot describe the feeling of this achievement.

Don’t Be Deceived

23 Sep

Level 469 of Farm Heroes has been equally frustrating besides Level 677 of Candy Crush. Don’t be deceived by the cute baaing sheeps that you have to herd to the hay. It’s just very challenging.

I never realized it but I have been stuck here for quite sometime until last night. Using up most of the farm equipment to lure the last sheep in, I finally managed. But joy is short lived as always because the next hurdle is Rancid, at Level 471 after bypassing the fairly easy Level 470. Sigh…
