11111 Introduction level 11111
When you arrive in Get A life you will be sent to Malcom's Mansion where your lover will appear.You will automatically kiss her and then she gets in the Hot Tub.Follow her in to complete this level.

22222 Money From Mom 22222

*****Borrow $800 from Mom*****
Move the cursor over Mom and select "borrow money" and each time she agress to give you money you get $100 so you must do this 8 times.Try and do this when she is in a good mood.i.e.the start of the level
Reward:The Museum(multiplayer game place)

*****Cook Dinner*****
To cook you need cooking points.You can obtain these by selecting "study cooking" at the book shelf.You will then notice a blue bar appear.When the level reaches the top you have gained your first cooking point!You should get at least one point to be safe but it's not very safe.Two points would be better.With 0 points there is more of a chance that you'll set the whole place alight! .You can then go to the fridge and select "have meal,serve meal or have quick meal but not have a snack as this is not cooking.
Reward:Aroma machine(in buy mode)

*****Fix the T.V*****
Again,to repair something you need points.Obtain these points from the bookshelf and I reccomend at least two.Then select the broken T.V and then Repair.Or if you want to see your Sim getting electricuted then only give him/her one or 0 points.
Reward:vanity mirror(in buy mode)

*****Get a Job*****
As you may notice, every morning a delivery boy comes round and drops the paper by the house.Easy,just find a job in it(you get to choose which carrer you want your Sim to have).NOTE:This goal MUST be done LAST.
Reward:Treadmill(Now in buy mode)

Optional:*****Get through this house in 24 hours or less(sim time)*****
Reward:Guitar(now in buy mode)

33333 Reality Bites 33333
This place is the worst dump ever.A good tip would be to focus on the clean up everything goal first so it doesn't get your room mood bad.

*****Clean everything up*****
Around the dump you will see ashes,puddles and the remains of food.I'm afraid that you have to clean it ALL up and the mess that you make yourself to complete this goal.But once you do it your Sim will be happy because they're room score isn't so bad.
Reward:A Maid you can hire over the phone.I would reccomend this in most places if your sim isn't to neat because for $10 an hour;that's a bargain!

*****Fix all the broken stuff*****
Around the house there are several machines that are broken.You can tell this by looking if there are any fumes coming out of it.If there are then fix it.Once you have fixed all of them the goal is done.
Reward:The Repairman(on the phone)

*****Get promoted to Career level 2*****
Go to work in a good mood.To tell if your Sim is in a good mood simply look at the bottom left hand corner where it has a picture of the sim that you control.Above that picture there should be red bars and green bars.If the red bars are filled in that means that your sim is in a bad mood but if the green bars are filled in then your Sim is in a good mood.There are four bars for red and the same for green.(look at number 11 of this page for more details on moods.)
Reward:Ice Box(In buy mode)

*****Get promoted to carrer level 3*****
This time,aswell as going in to work in a good mood you need skills.If you look at your carrer panel there should be the skills you need in yellow.(look at number 9 of this page for more details on skills)Sometimes you also need friends.This is also displayed in the career panel and it'll tell you how many you need by the smiley face.To make a friend you talk,compliment,whatever you do and in the realationship panel you have to get to 50+ points with that sim to make a friend.I would reccomend to get higher than 50+ because over days the points go down.
Reward:Teppanyaki Table.(in buy mode)

*****Upgrade your abode*****
Buy stuff for the place and when you've got enough and when your in live mode a message should come up saying that you've completed the goal!
Reward:Bug Zapper(as you know-Buy mode)

Optional:*****Get throught this house in 4 days or less*****
Reward:Coat of Arms(in buy mode)

44444 Party Animals 44444

*****Get Promoted to career level 4*****
Get your friends(by the smiley face)and skills(in yellow)which are displayed in the carrer panel and then go to work in a good mood.NOTE:This must be done before you find a roommate otherwise you can't move out.
Reward:Strip Poker Table(in buy mode)

*****Get promoted to career level 5*****
SAME AS ABOVE
Reward:Master Tub(in buy mode)

*****Upgrade your Abode*****
There can be various things you can spend the money on.Like you might need a few things for the party,etc.
Reward:Swing on a tree.(in buy mode)

*****Throw a raging party*****
Before starting this make sure both sims are in a good mood and that work is not a problem for you.(Don't worry if the carpool comes just ignore it;you won't get fired unless you didn't go to work the day before.) Buy another hot tub.Then go to the phone and order a pizza.Then go to the phone and select "Throw party".After the call the guests start appearing after the pizza arrives.Get the other sim you control to greet the pizza man and bring it in while you start greeting the guests.Most of them should go and grab a slice of the pizza.If there is not enough get the other Sim to cook burgers.Then get the other sim you control to get in one tub while you get in another.The guests should follow you.Then soon after a window should appear saying that you have completed the goal!
Reward:The Motel(multiplayer)

*****Get a roommate*****
All other goals MUST be done before this.During the party, talk,complement,etc untill you have about 80-90 realationship points.Then ask them if they would like to move in with you.If,yes you've completed the level!If no, don't worry your guest is proabably tired.So throw a quick party the next day when that sim has had some rest and then ask.If no,get that Sim in a good mood at your house then ask the sim.If,no again then keep trying.If you cannot get a yes out of that Sim and you've kept on trying then your a complete loser in the eyes of that sim so go for another one.
Reward:The next level!


Optional:*****Get through this house in 8 days or less*****
Reward:Head in Curio Jar(in buy mode)

55555 Hot To Trot 55555

*****Get promoted to carrer level 6*****
Get your friends(by the smiley face)and your skills(things in yellow)which are displayed in the carrer panel and go to work in a good mood.
Reward:Sonic Shower(in buy mode)

*****Get promoted to carrer level 7*****
SAME AS ABOVE
Reward:Carving block(in buy mode)

*****Upgrade your Abode*****
Spend money on things for the house and when you've got enough and your not in buy or build mode a message should come up saying that you've done it!
Reward:Love Bed(in buy mode)

*****Throw a raging party*****
Using the same tactics from the earlier level,Party Animals, should get you through this.
Reward:Club Abhi and Taylor's place(multiplayer)

*****"Score" with a party guest*****
During the party get a 80-100 realationship with a sim(this would be a lot easier if you knew someone there.If there is no-one you know then you can always call up someone that is your friend during the party so you could get a lot quicker to those points)and then get a heart instead of a smiley face, if there is no heart then kiss that Sim to get it.(if no then try it when they are in a better mood).When there is a heart and you think that that sim is in a good mood then select "score".If yes then you will see your Sim getting married!What a glorius day!But don't worry if that sim turns you down.Keep trying to score in a different party or when that sim is in a better mood.
Reward:The next level!(not in buy mode)


Optinal:*****Get through this house in 8 days or less*****
Reward:Jukebox

66666 Who loves ya baby 66666
Obviously you will want to move the stuff around as it is all cramped in to two rooms.When you have babies you have to attend to him/her.When it cries give it food or sing to the baby.It is usually NOT a god idea to play with the baby.If you don't take good care of him/her it is likely that social services will come and take the baby away.(I learned the hard way).When you do have children keep an eye on their grades.This is in the work pannel for them.If they go to F's then they will be sent to military school.If they get sent to military school then you must have another baby! But if they go to A's then they come home saying"i got good grades so Grandpa gave me $100!"Actually you get the money so make them study hard!They can study on the computer or at the bookshelf.

*****Upgrade your Abode*****
Buy stuff as you know until the window comes(in live mode) up saying you have done it.

*****Get promoted to career level 8*****
Get your friends and the skills in yellow and go to work in a good mood.
Reward:Maid's house(multiplayer)

*****Get Promoted to career level 9*****
look above if not sure
Reward:two swimming pools(Do I have to keep saying this?-in buy mode)

*****Have two babies*****
Kiss your wife or use the love bed/tub.When your Sim does have a baby you don't go to the hospital or anything,what happens is that a cradle appears out of no-where and congratulations you have a baby!Just one more to go!(see the introduction for this level for how to look after them)
Reward:no reward for this one!

*****Raise your first baby to a child*****
After looking after it for about three sim days your baby should turn into a child.(see intro for this level to see how to look after them)
I'm afraid you don't get to choose what he/she looks like(mine looked awful!) or what gender.Only the name when it is born.
Reward:Sand Box(IBM-In Buy mode)

*****Raise your second baby to a child*****
Same as above.
Reward:Sprinkler(IBM)

Optinal:*****Get through this house in 8 days or less*****
Reward:Bearskin Rug(IBM)

77777 The Last Simolean 77777
Here,it is:THE LAST LEVEL!!!!

*****Get promoted to level 10*****
The last promotion,but the hardest.You will need several friends and skills.The friends bit is the hardest but your partner can also make friends which will help you.When they gain a friend you gain one to!
Reward:The Park(multiplayer)

*****Send both your cildren to prep school*****
To do this both of your children must have A-'s or better and you have to have $3,000.($1,500 for each child)
Reward:The Monkey Butler!(I'm afraid-IBM)

*****Save $20,000 for an early retirement*****
(Just do what it says in the goal title)

*****Throw the last party Ever!!!!*****
The last goal in the game.I don't have experience for this one really because as soon as i started the party everone was happy and the window came up!But from what I've heard that hardly ever happens so I'd guess that you just have to do the same tacticts from the Party Animals and the Hot to trot level.

Optional:*****Get through this level in 8 days or less*****
Reward:Rhino Trophy

After completing all goals you'll see a short video.
YOU HAVE COMPLETED GET A LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!You've seen your Sim making that big step out of Mom's house and getting a career,you've seen it throwing parties,moving in with roommates,getting promoted,getting married,having children,moving into a mansion,becoming the top of your carrer,seeing your children go to prep school and finally your Sim retiring with a partner in a helicopter to a magical wonderland!!!!!

Bladder:This is fufilled by using the toilet.

Energy:The energy motive is fufilled by slepping or drinking espresso or coffee.

Fun: This is fufilled when the Sim is entertained by something like the t.v,stero,a pinball machine,a pool table,etc
