    Celebrating Harvestfest 2005 with my sim self's grandson George and his family, my sim self shows up and gives George one carved guitar as a gift and then presents him with this question:

    My sim self has two teenage daughters at home! Do i accept or decline? I'm feeling this question is a bit inappropriate at the moment.

    I was happy to move on to the Rasoya family in City Living. Geeta met Zoe Patel through her neighbor, Jesminder Bheeda. She immediately looked for an opportunity to introduce her to her son, Raj. Soon they invited her to move to the city with them. Geeta promised to help Zoe get a distinguished degree in drama to help her comedy career.

    It was a slow moving romance, Raj being a very private person. Zoe was also busy working on her degree as well as renewing her friendship with Jesminder, who she knew from school. After the proposal finally took place in their living room, Raj threw a huge engagement party for Zoe inviting his city friends and her friends from Oasis Springs. He made the cake himself.

    Later the couple along with Geeta made their way to Myshuno Meadows (lovely lot by JuanitaRivas2810!) where they exchanged vows privately and got some life advice from Geeta who officiated.

    Geeta hopes to be a grandmother soon, but Zoe wants to finish her degree first.

    @DaniRose2143 It’s great to finally have them together under one household ☺️ Haha yeah Cat probably had flashbacks of Kyle with his hat and outfit😆
    @WattTheNag Wow, I thought Bob would’ve visited by now 😟
    @Ellupelluellu Hehe Tornado’s still waiting for that brush 😅
    @Brd709 Maybe because he has 2 teenage daughters at home he wants to escape them 💀😆
    @telemwill Aw I like the story of how they met and slowly became a couple.☺️

    When she started her journey to get her biology degree this day seemed a distant dream. But finally after a lot of hard work, sacrifice, and stress, Aurora had all the credits she needed. On the final weekend as she was preparing for her last final exam they welcomed the newest member of the household, Spirit.
    BQazSdY.jpg

    Spirit's birth was another blessing and the joy of the moment helped to calm Aurora's raging nerves. She showed up on Monday morning and completed the last step of her journey. She aced her final exam and finished with an A+, not only for the term, but for her entire coursework. She had her degree and it was a distinguished degree with honors.

    "Congratulations baby! You worked your pretty butt off and I couldn't be happier or prouder of you."
    "Thank you hun. I couldn't have done it without your help."

    "I got a surprise for you. After graduation, how 'bout we take a little trip to Tartosa?"
    "Oh my God Tre! That's so sweet. I really need some time away."
    "I'm glad you agree 'cause I already booked the flight, the rental villa, everything."
    Wu8NYWi.jpg

    Aurora had just enough time before her graduation ceremony to get her hair done for the occasion and to pick out a nice dress. They arrived early the following morning. Aurora was more nervous now than she had been for any of her exams or term papers. The moment felt so surreal. All of the late nights, cram sessions, endless homework, and stress. It all led here and in a few minutes it would all be official.

    "Enjoy this moment girl. It's your big day."
    "It's a big day, but you still owe me my big day. I know you know what I mean Trevon Carter."
    jPyFuTx.jpg

    "Don't you worry girl, I got a little something in mind for that."
    "I'm going to hold you to that. Now let me go. It's almost time and I need to get my cap and gown."
    y1w8Vco.jpg

    The ceremony lasted for what seemed like ages. Aurora had just missed out on valedictorian but she was happy to have her degree and honors. And she really didn't mind not having to deliver a speech. Public speaking wasn't her thing unless the audience was hairy and had four legs. But the moment was here, time to celebrate!

    He ate and before Jacob had time to do the "What's wrong?" dialogue, he left.. maybe he was just hungry :D
    My love, my love, my fearless love, I will not say goodbye..
    Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
    My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried

    I haven't got a photo right now but I recently built my own custom sushi restaurant using Snowy Escape and Dine Out. I also added a City Living karaoke machine upstairs near the bar so San Myshuno isn't the only place for karaoke in my game. I sent my first patrons in there and it went very smoothly. It has a private patio in a bamboo garden and a pretty waiting area. I'm thinking about where to build my own bistro with the Cozy Bistro Kit. I send lots of different groups to these types of venues over and over so that's an improvement for my game.
    Champ and Girlie are dogs.
  • BlueSeaWavesBlueSeaWaves Posts: 4,682 Member
    @Ellupelluellu Bluegrass is very shiny✨ Very nice shot of the jump in the air! Their facial expressions are great. Lol John’s face
    @ChampandGirlie The sushi restaurant sounds like an awesome build
  • DaniRose2143DaniRose2143 Posts: 9,396 Member
    @Ellupelluellu Bluegrass is such a beautiful horse. ❤️ Jacob may not be shiny but he's in his happy place. Hopefully the meal cheered Jon up, but I guess we'll never know. 😛

    @ChampandGirlie From your description the sushi restaurant sounds amazing. I can't wait to see some pics. 😃

    Their plane arrived in Tartosa late in the afternoon. Aurora and Tre soon arrived at their home from home, Villa Vigna. The villa sat on a bluff overlooking the sparkling azure waters of Tartosa Bay and the square in Porto Luminoso district. In this part of the world the sunsets are breathtaking.

    For now they were just excited to get settled in. They were missing everyone back home already but they had faith in Onyx. Aurora and Tre were both blown away by the gorgeous exterior but the interior was no less beautiful.

    "This place is so amazing! Oh my God Tre you couldn't have picked a more beautiful villa."
    "Nothing but the best for my queen."
    kTgDV26.jpg

    "Can you imagine waking up to this every morning?"
    RjqQ9B6.jpg
    Tre had mentioned the pool during the flight. Aurora couldn't wait to get changed and jump in. It wasn't a large pool for swimming, more for relaxation which was just fine with her.

    "Look at this view!"

    "Thank you baby. This is such a wonderful gift."

    That night they dined out at a cozy little seaside bistro. The tables were candlelit, and there was a delightful sea breeze. It was a long way from the earthy aromas of the barnyard.

    It was a lovely setting for a fabulous meal and for conversation.

    Aurora suggested this should visit one of the local vineyards. Since they were planning to craft their own nectars it would be a great opportunity to learn a few things about the art. And they could try the best of the best nectars and have something to compare their own to. There was a world renowned vineyard on the other side of the canal. They decided to pay it a visit the following day.

    "Would you look at the size of those aging casks! There's like a lifetime supply in each one!"
    8ShJvSn.jpg

    It was a short trip and they didn't want to leave without spending a little time on the beach. It was the perfect setting to make romantic memories to last a lifetime.

    Zoe's degree in drama helped her on her way to a position as Roast Master in the comedy career. She started streaming her routines to gain fame and happened to be filming when the newest Rasoya, little Ramir, made his way into the world. Zoe instantly became a notable newcomer. Here she is showing off little Ramir to her mother-in-law, Geeta, and the Internet.

    I’ve been playing another household the last 2 days. Paris’s brother Kanye started studying Physics at Britechester. He lived in dorms for the first semester and developed a relationship with classmate Julia Wright.

    Kanye then moved out to a house in Willow Creek with a roommate who was none other than Bob Pancakes. They got on fairly well. Bob did all the cooking and Kanye did all the handiness. Bob then got into a relationship with Angela Pleasant. At the end of Kanye’s second semester at Uni Angela got pregnant so Bob moved to be with her while her sister Lilith took Bob’s place as Kanye’s roommate.

    Kanye just got engaged to Julia between his second and third semester of Uni.

    I nipped back into the other houses before I saved today. Eliza and Srikumar did in fact have a baby together once she finished Uni. A little girl called Tiffany who big brother Jordan is smitten with.

    Paris, Mitchell and toddler Caroline are just doing away working and raising their daughter.
  • BlueSeaWavesBlueSeaWaves Posts: 4,682 Member
    @DaniRose2143 The villa looks amazing, Tre did great!😃 The vineyard looks just as amazing too. Hope they continue to enjoy their time in Tartosa😁
    @MiataPlay Haha looks effective 😆
    @telemwill Wishing Zoe luck on the road to fame🙂
    @WattTheNag Glad Srikumar got his wish, and it didn’t ruin the relationship 😃

    Hehe I learned sims could pick up calls on a horse
    “Let's go on a walk Tal— *phone rings* One second. Hi dad! No, I’m not doing anything, whats up?”

    congratulations to the bride and groom @telemwill
    Congrats to Aurora @DaniRose2143 for A's
    @Ellupelluellu Bluegrass is a beautiful horse
    @BlueSeaWaves I have never seen a sim receive a call on their cell on a horse. That is funny. great screenshot!
    Great family portraits @Mafe5125 The black and white photo can be an antique. That's a great idea to age down elders and have that old photo on the wall when they were younger or got married!

    Almost done with the fort

    Amelie furnished her son and his wife's room in the Bailey Moon Manor

    Amelie was assigend to redecorate Kris Jenner's office. Yes, I have the Kardashians original house with the family as npc in my game I don't play as. The literally bulldose Oasis Springs park for their home, can you believe?!!
    I'm not a fan but I think it's funny to have over the top characters running around your neighborhood/game for added drama. Dream Home decorator kept giving me the choice to insult taste in decor but Amelia refrained.

    At the end, Kris didn't like it and didnt pay. Well, I went straight to manage household and invoiced and got Amelie's payment, the amount I think it should have paid, $20,000.

    @LeucosiaX I love the photo idea, thanks for the suggestion. That's probably what I'll end up doing once Shea becomes an adult and her parents pass on. 🥲

    Awesome fort by the way! 😊

    @BlueSeaWaves Haha! Unfortunately I had to turn his offer down and he received a "some family we are sentiment" :o

    I realise I haven't updated since Sharon's Café re-opened after the fire and that was in Spring 2005 and now i'm in Winter 2005! :o

    We head on in to the first half of Summer 2005 with my sim self's second born grandson Ryo and his wife Callia:

    Here is Ryo's uncle Harry meeting Ryo's son Daniel:

    Next, we visit my sim self. We haven't seen him since 2003 after the untimely death of his third wife Emily.

    My sim self, meets Alex Moyer. She works at the same radio station he works at. I thought they may be a good couple:
    U3uNS5M.png

    My sim self invites Alex round for a meal. It was a bit of an awkward meeting but he is sure they can be more than friends.
    yZTsjVi.png

    My sim self's son Jacob comes round for a visit. The lease on his apartment in San Myshuno is coming to an end and he wants to move back home. My sim self has been pleased with how Jacob is doing living independently and doesn't agree that he should move back to the family home after living on his own for two years. My sim sim self suggests talking to his grandson Brian who is looking for a roommate.

    At Brian's house, Brian is pleased to see Jacob. Jacob explains to Brian that the lease on his apartment in San MyShuno is coming to an end and he is looking for somewhere new to live. Brian tells Jacob that he is more than welcome to move in with him however he is expecting someone else as well as he had also advertised a for room mate. Jacob asks Brian if he can have the room with the deck. Jacob goes back to his apartment to grab his belongings.

    While Jacob is out, Brian's other housemate Victoria turns up. Victoria turns up with her belongings, Brian greets Victoria and he helps her in. She begins to take some of her stuff to her room and to her horror when she finds some of Jacob's belongings already there. She is furious with Brian when she learns that somebody has taken the room she agreed to sleep in. Brian offers her the neighbouring room but she wanted the room with the deck and the neighbouring room is a bit too small.

    When Jacob returns Brian introduces him to Victoria, they get on at first but things go a little south when Victoria finds out that Jacob has taken her room and Victoria takes a dislike to Jacob. After the dust has settled, Victoria apologises for having a go at Jacob and they all enjoy a fried meal Brian has cooked for them on their first night on the BBQ.
    WTbtNdh.png

    Now that Victoria and Jacob have resolved their differences, The three housemates spend their first night together playing videogames and getting to know each other:

    This is one of Victoria's many work uniforms in the Style Influencer career:

    It had been raining quite heavily this day:
    37Yn5vC.png

    A few days later my sim self decides to pay a visit to see Jacob to see how he's settled in. My sim self gets a surprise when he notices Victoria living with his grandson and son. Victoria went to the same high school as my sim self when they were teens so it was a nice surprise for him to see her again. They enjoy getting reacquainted with each other:
    Q33bhZc.png

    My sim self introduces Victoria to his daughter Ashley and Ashley seems to take a shine to her:
    2h2PaXj.png

    And that's my summer update. I'll see if i can get Autumn 2005 in before we say good bye to these forums.

    I was playing earlier when my game crashed. No idea why. It hasn’t crashed since February so it’s not a constant issue. I wasn’t playing one of my main families, just a casual save I like to go to if I’m feeling a little uninspired or just fancy a quick break from a ‘main save’.
    Hopefully it’s just a one off. I didn’t lose a huge amount of progress, but it’s probably time to use MCCC to enable auto-save!
  • BlueSeaWavesBlueSeaWaves Posts: 4,682 Member
    @LeucosiaX The forts looking great! Amelia did a great job with the remodels, shame they didn’t like it.
    @Brd709
    he received a "some family we are sentiment”
    Oof, sounds like your sim self really wanted to move in with them 😭 The blow kiss animation is slow cute🥰 Happy birthday lil guys☺️
    Glad they resolved the issue, but lmao at Victoria’s work outfit 😆 For style influencer 😂 Lmao the mud slip after 😭 thats so perfect 😆
    Enjoyed the update 😁
    @Lucy_Henley Hope it’s just a one off too, the app crashing on a main save would’ve been very frustrating.

    Awesome fort @LeucosiaX ! Yes, I would definitely believe that the Kardashians bulldozed a public park to make their home, lol
    Gorgeous vacation builds @DaniRose2143 What lot type did you make the vineyard?
    @MiataPlay Hahaha my sims are experts at that style of cooking too XD
    Don't buy broken stuff

    @BlueSeaWaves Thank you! I enjoy reading the posts in this thread.

    @mightysprite Yep! Even the well trained chefs slap cook to ensure even distribution of the seasonings and spices. I think you can take a course in culinary school on this technique. It's not as easy as it looks. ;):)
