How many of you play "Pet Society" on Face book? It is one of the most popular games ever and I understand why, it really appeals across the board for many personalities and ages....it is fun once in a while as as way to pay some time.
Not that I get alot of time to play computer games on Facebook, I do however sometimes play on there while waiting for something to download or as a way to send virtual "gifts" to my daughter who loves to play on it....so the other day I got thinking after taking a tour of some of my friend's homes as well as those of my kids....do your choices and so on on Pet Society tell anything about the "real you?"
Not sure if this is true across the board, just going to share what I saw with my family and our profiles.....
* My youngest daughter's pet is always broke. She never has any money. Why? Because she spends it all on clothing and make overs for her pet. She has a whole room that is a closet and it is stuffed with clothing of all discriptions as well as more in the clothing storage area you all have for your pets along with the chest for other items you are storing. Her house has clothing all over it and things and furnishings pretty much all scattered around. If you knew her....well let's just say that that is very true to real life.
*My oldest daughter's pet always has lots of money. Her house is neat and well arranged, she has a modest amount of clothing. She always has alot of money, because her pet 'works" hard to earn it and because she rarely spends money. When she does buy things on Facebook she actually plans ahead and makes large purchases or just one tiny small one.....again pretty true to real life.
*My Oldest son's pet is also broke all the time. Why? Because he buys things for others with his money and gives them to their pets. He also at times makes impulse purchases he later wishes he did not. His decor is always changing and you will find an interesting mix of things in his rooms as you wander his house. Usually his pet has flies around him since he has not been bathed in a while. Again, any one who knows him will know that alot of this fits too......so......
* After thinking this about each of theirs I got up the courage to look at my "pet" and his house to see if it was pretty true to life. I modeled my pet after a real cat who was a part of our lives for over a decade and who I still miss. He is dressed in nice thing, nothing overly fancy. He seems to have a moderate amount of money. Not alot of money...why, well my kids keep going in and spending his money by logging into my profile, buying gifts and sending them to their own pets. He has a garden and it is planted with all trees since the trees have the greatest rate of return. ( I can buy one seed and in three days it starts making fruit that I can then save or sell for a profit.) The house also is a pretty mixed bag, why? well I did not place or choose much of the furniture with the exception of the bedroom since the kids kept going in and changing it, sending it to themselves, recycling it and picking it out for me instead of me picking out my own.......hmmmmm....again this is extreemly accurate. In fact in my own non virtual house our bedroom is the only one that I have decorated and chosen pretty much everything for, in the rest of the house the furnishings are often moved by other family members and often did not choose them.....The same can be said for where my money goes, to the family.....
Any way just wondering if I should friend future clients and see if they have a pet society profile......you know, before I have a consult with them....:)
--Oh and my pet's garden is full of things that bring in a profit and butterflies....here is Mr. Twinkle and his front yard garden.....
