Back Again

Yep, I'm back.

Nope, I don't yet have an update.

Yep, school starts tomorrow here.

Nope I am not excited.

Yep the Johnsen's are on their way.

Nope, not today.

Yep, I hope to have the update ready soon.

Nope, I am a lazy ____ and in unpacking and getting ready for school (SHOPPING) I have not had time to play Sims.

Later, Queenofsimtopia

Bye for Now

I am going to Ontario for a week, I am leaving early tomorrow (boo to plane flights!!). Anyway, I have an update for the Johnsens almost ready, but you will just have to wait til I get back.

The worst part about this trip. I get back they day before school starts! Yeah, crappiness, my simming time will be seriously more depleted then it is already.

See you later,

Queenofsimtopia

Sim State University

Here's uni. By the way, blogger wouldn't let me put a pic of young adult hunter up so that's why there isn't one. Told from Hunter's point of view:

Hey there, yup I'm Hunter. Here's Marshal as a young adult. Me and Marshal pledged into Cujh Dibe Jacosp and quickly moved there. I think it would have killed us to be in lame dorms.
Donald bought a pizza for us to celebrate. After I ate a couple pieces I felt kind of... well... out of shape.
That's better! Lilo liked my idea too! Anyway, of course after we got settled, I called Beth and invited her over. I was so exited, we would finally be together! She is my dream girl. She asked if she could bring Soda over to. I said sure. I didn't know she was gonna bring an actual guy!
I was shocked and confused. According to Lilo, Sodapop (what a stupid name!) is Beth's fiance! I went up to my room. College sucks.

Everybody else's love life is good.
I still don't know how Donald scored a hottie like Cola. He is such a nerd, and she, well, she looks like a model. Lilo is a little strange. She went out for a while and came back with an x-box. I have no idea where she got it...
The next night she came back with a ratty old sofa. That kind of creeped me out. Is she a robber??? Na, couldn't be! She owns a clothing store that makes quite a bit of money. Yup, even my own twin has a love life! Him and Lilo seem pretty tight. (note from thequeenofsimtopia: what is up Marshal??? Don't look so angy, Lilo just fell in love with you!!)

Marshal says their relationship isn't serious. Then why do they gush over eachother all the time????

It looks serious to me!Marshal was pretty surprised...but I was ticked! "Don't mess with me punk! I am pissed off right now, so just screw off. What the *^%$!!!"Turned out we were getting abducted into the secret society! (note from the queenofsimtopia: Randy is STILL furious at Sprite!)

Well, everyone is gone now...

(note from... I did a test: Scott grew up in gold, but got some awful clothes
Lilo grew up in plat and got great clothes,
Donald was also in plat and got awful clothes (they kind of fit with his personality though)
Beth grew up in green with great clothes Soda grew up in red with horrible clothes, so does the aspiration actually mean anything when it comes to transition clothes???)

It's just me and Marshal now, hope the next two years turn out better than these ones. Later.

Outakes

Scott grows up with his head in the phone!

Soda makes some cash.
Randy and Scott STILL don't get along.
Scott is so in love with Sprite, instead of spying on people he spies on... GARBAGE CANS
Lilo flips out when she breaks the grandfather clock (poor wealth sim!)

And my favorite pic this round:
Why are the twins soooo mad at lilo???

Johnsens are up next and an update will be coming soon.

PS. I used the college clock thing this round (just in the greek house and only to move em ahead to their final exam) I doubt I will ever use it again un less I am desperate.

WOOHOO!!

No the title is not meant in a simming way, just in an I AM HAPPY way.

Scott has graduated, Beth and Soda have 1.5 semesters left, the greek house has 3 semesters. I am almost finished!!! Well, kind of. This uni post will be wayyyyy shorter than the other one. I hope to have my update up in 4 or so days.

Side Note: More Excuses

Yeah I know, all you hear from me is, *wah, wah* I have no time *wah wah*. I know you are thinking that if that girl wants to blog she should maked sure she actually BLOGS.

OK, so ready for another excuse? My mother. Yes, I blame everything on her. She won't let me on the computer for more than half an hour a day. "I don't want to see you on that computer, you don't know how to moniter your time!" (a quote from my lovely mom).

So, I get half an hour a day, and whenever my mom is out. Yep. She doesn't want to see me on it so I make a point of being on it when she can't see me.

Plus, I am playing my last huge uni round. From now on I will spread them out (1 year every once in a while vs 2 years twice a week).

I am working on it, but it is way hard to do on about half an hour to 3 hours (when I am lucky, love it when my ma eats out!)

So, bye for now.

Zelda

PS, I miss my Fellowship neighborhood. Maybe I will play on them later... Don't worry after I play another week at least in the Hills!

The Beverages 02: Typical Sisters

A pretty simple, boring round. Yep, that's it. A semi-relaxing way to end week 2.

Told from Sprite's point of view for 4 days: Welcome to our home! First things first, I am trying not to act like such a "hippie", Cola's word, so I have given up meditating. Anyway I wanted to make sure that was clarified.
As soon as we moved in, Cola and I got make-overs. Here is Cola.
And here I am. Cola is being quite typical in the background there. She talked me into letting her buy a cellphone. Being the softy I am I let her. Big mistake, she never gets off of it. I guess some things will never change.
Another example is my misguided stalker. Yep, Randy is still pretty angry that I "cheated" on him. I really think he needs to talk to a psychologist. He needs help.

There is Cola off to work. She is a SWAT leader.I am not as far up the career path as she is. I am a detective. I don't know why I picked the police career. I would love to be a Captain hero, but I hate the gore.We both love to paint. Notice Cola's cellphone ringing. *sigh*I invited Scott over one night. I was pretty exited to see him. He could only stay for a while though so we just basically kissed for an hour. Uh-oh. Yep, some misguided person kicked over our trash. We got cockroaches! Cola flipped.
We had to call the Exterminator.Thanx bug guy!What the... Kennedy Cox! This was after the bug incident. The weirdest thing is, neither I nor Cola know Kennedy.And another typical incident. Randy also knocked over the trash. Jerk.One time, when I was sending an email, Cola burst out in tears. I knew better than to comfort her. She would get all protective. Maybe it's that time of the month? I don't know, Cola has never really been emotional.Yep, next round Cola will be moving out to the Disney's household. I will miss her, but I am so exited about seeing Scott again!!

Pretty Pic

Another pretty girl. This one is a teen. She will be perfect for some guy later. Expect to see her at uni...

Accomplishments: err, nothing!

Next is a Weekly Synopsis (or however you spell it)

Week 2 Over

I am done Week 2! I finished on Friday, wanted to post about it on Saturday but couldn't.

My darned parents threw a party. There were lots of cute guys (their friends sons), but I wasn't allowed on the computer. Nope, I had to be "social". O how much fun!

Then yesterday, we went camping. Yep, camping. Why is it my parents goal in life to torture me?? Let's just say "I hate the outdoors!!"

So, I am working on posting for the Beverage girls (Cola and Sprite) then I will do a Weekly Synopsis (excuse any poor spelling), and a SCORE PAGE. So, off to work then!

The Disneys: Getting Along

Yep another update! I figured it takes me 2 days to play 3 or 4 sim days, and 1 day to post what happened. I was lucky and I got to finish playing the disneys and type here today. So here it is!

Told from Nala's point of view for 4 days: Hi! Things are pretty much the same as when we last left off...

I was basically too pregnant to function... and John was constantly caring for Jane and giving her extra cuddles when he thought I wasn't looking. There are some differences though.
I convinced John to close down his toy business and get a real job. He started as a security guard. I am working up the medical career.
Yep, it doesn't seem to hurt any less the 4th time around...
meet Oliver Disney! He has an incredible resemblence to Carter Carr.That night Jane grew up. I was glad, I don't know how me and John could have juggled two jobs and raise two kids. Jane is a very reliable girl (I did a good job of raising her with very little of John's poor influence).Jane is very good at tidying around the house.Yep thats my girl! I must admit, I really do love her. (note: Nala has a heart!). She does need to learn to change out of her PJs sooner.I have relented, John is as much a part of raising Oliver as I am. I am really too exhausted to worry myself about it. And me and John made a deal. No more kids. Soon Donald (my favorite child other than Jane) will be coming back with his fiance Cola Beverage. No more kids from us. John will just have to dote on his grandkids.Here's Olivers birthday.He is cute I will admit (sorry for no close ups).I must admit, John has started to work hard. He worked himself to such low energy that he fainted. He was desperately trying to potty train Oliver.Jane really does love to learn (she has 7 charisma from toddler hood, 8 creativity and 4 logic so far). (note: This is an adorable pic in my opinion) I'll leave you guys with what we are currently doing. Jane is off to her first day of school. She is very exited.John is trying to get fit for his job (key word: trying).
And I'm bathing Oliver. I must admit, I am getting good at this parenting thing. I am glad this is the last toddler though. Drat, I just realized that when Donald moves back I will probably end up taking care of his rugrats. Ah-well. I am sure I can convince John to most of the time.

Accomplishments: Jane grows up, Oliver is born and grows into a toddler.

Next up is the Beverage sisters. Then, more college!!! Oh well, I still have some time left...

Curtis: Lots of Growth

Surprise! I already have another update! Anyway, on with the story...

Told from Jasmine's point of view for 4 days: Hello everybody. Why am I living in the Curtis houselhold you ask. Well, after I graduated I got a phone call from my friend Tia. She invited me to come live with them for free, I was to be a nanny/maid. I accepted, to tell the truth I wasn't too keen on going home. I never really enjoyed acting as a referee between my parents in their silly arguements.

I was kind of ticked when as soon as I moved in, the boys I was supposed to be caring for grew up into teens.

Hunter Curtis: wealth, become criminal mastermind (I don't remember his turn-ons and offs) Marshal: Curtis: popularity, become captain hero (note from the queenofsimtopia: Wow this really cracked me up, Marshall will be fighting evil while Hunter will be evil! Twin brothers, set against eachother. It also bugged me a little. This means there will be 4 Captain Heros in Prosperity Hills (Marshal, Cola, Sprite, and Sodapop). Ah, well.)

Tia had invited Joe Carr over to celebrate the boys birthdays, she also seemed to have other plans...

Yep, Tia proposed engagement and asked him to move in.As if that wasn't enough exitement in one day, they got married on the spot.I expected Tia to have a big party but she obviously has changed since becoming perma-plat. Even though that day was happy, disaster still managed to strike...Yep, just great timing Mr. Robber-dude. Hunter and Marshal were first to wake up to see the burglar and police guy in a major fight (I tried to make everyone sleep through the alarm but it didn't work).
Eventually, we were all up (Tia was in her underwear, which under any other circumstance would have been totally awkward, who wants to see their boss in skimpy undies? Actually, don't answer that *thinks of Miss Cherry Beverage*)Thank goodness the police guy one. But the robber managed to get away with the TV. I couldn't sleep after such a day so I went outside and worked out a bit.Suddenly, I just broke down. It wasn't fair. This job totally wasn't working out. I couldn't be a nanny, the boys were teens and old enough to care for themselves, I couldn't be a maid here either, the house was always spotless (this family likes ot clean up after themselves).I decided to suck it up and talk to Tia. She told me not to worry. Her and Joe had talked and they wanted a baby. She wasn't pregnant yet, but they hoped to bring one into the world later. They also are planning on opening a business. A hair salon. I was pretty exited when I heard this. When I was a kid I wanted to be a hairdresser more than anything else. So I sucked it up. Everyone in the house was pretty emotional so I didn't want to be an extra burden.Joe was always angry, I guess cuz the robbery ruined his wedding day or whatever. Hunter was also ticked, he seemed to hate that burglar guy.Tia didn't seem to care at all. She seemed to be to worried about something else...Oh, Tia also let me get a job! I imediately enrolled in the army. I am a flight officer. I wear a pretty awesome uniform.I also have a wicked carpool. The boys love it!Meanwhile, Tia broke the news to Joe. She thought she was pregnant. And, it turned out she was! I also started being a bigger part of the boys lives. I talked to them about school...and more serious stuff like marriage.We became pretty close friends. They really appreciated the extra help with their homework. Then, on one of her regular midnight bathroom trips, Tia went into labour. I was the only one up and it totally freaked me out. Meet Mia Carr. She has her mommy's brown eyes and tan skin tone and her daddy's brown hair. Mia was actually the second born though...
Meet Carter Carr (I didn't realize how bad his first name would sound with his last name till it was too late, oh well.) He has his daddy's skin tone and brown hair and his mommy's brown eyes. (note from the queenofsimtopia: Carter looks like he should be Jasmine's kid. He has her brown hair, eyes and skin. It seriously freaked me our for a second. I can't wait to see what he looks like later)
Me and Joe spent loads of time caring for the babies (Joe is currently unemployed cuz he wants to be a Criminal Mastermind but there have been no criminal job openings yet. Tia is Host in the culinary career.) Taking care of the babies made me wonder if I would ever have my own kids... In the evenings Hunter helped out with the babies too. Marshal didn't really care about them much. He considers them only his "half-siblings". The boys got into Private School too. They look adorable in their uniforms. Oh, and they are now off to uni. They are way too young for it, but they are super smart (hence the fact that they are in private school), so they got accepted early. Anyway, that's all for now.

Bye.

Funny Pics

Jasmine and Tia seem pretty surprised to see the boys grow up.

A typical teen boy conversation!

Accomplishments: Mia and Carter Carr were born, Joe Carr moved in, Joe and Tia got married, Marshal and Hunter got into Private School.

By the way, Mia and Carter were completely natural twins (no cheesecake). Tia must have a twin making gene!
