You Haven't Seen The Last Of Me

It turns out, the Sims screenshots haven't got deleted yet. They were all just kept at a backup data. So, this post is to say that this blog will go on! The saved datas are still there so all I got to do is just install the Sims 3 and that's it. :D

I will continue the story tomorrow. Till then! Dag dag!

The End! (FAIL)

So, here's the story, my laptop was sent for repair. The dude had to reformat the laptop which means that all the sims screenshots are gone. So, I guess that's all for this rainbow challenge? Should I start a new rainbow challenge or should I just end this blog?

Change

I previously stated that this challenge would go on for ten generations, well, I've changed my mind and decided to stick to eight. (No, I'm not getting sick of playing the Sims but I just don't want it to go so long. I have like 10 posts already planned ahead and I still haven't completed the first generation) Here's how it's gonna work : The first generation heir names her children after her favourite colour and the heir of the next generation names his/her children after his/her favourite colour. This would go on till the eighth and final generation. The colour order for each generation will be totally random.

So, that's all I guess. Gah, why the laptop-fixing dude no fix the laptop faster. D:<

Hiatus

Well, I don't think I'll be able to update you guys in a while. How long? I don't know. My laptop was sent for repair because of virus attack so it will be a while till I get my laptop back. That's where I play the Sims anyways.

Expecting

This post is a direct continuation from the previous post. So here's what happened in the previous post, Jebediah was added into the household. Apple and Jebediah spent some quality time together (If you know what I mean) .

Here's some random pictures I have to include before I continue on with the story.
Apple thinks that Jebediah is like Superman in *ahem*.



Apple not feeling well. Jebediah drinking coffee. It's as simple as that.
Too much coffee makes the bladder go BOOM!. Apple's "OMG how did your pee get so far when your just standing there" face.
"Oh crap, I hope no one saw that"
(If he thinks that no one saw that, well, I saw that)
Apple's "Damn, he has a nice ass" expression.
That night was one of the most uncomfortable nights of Apple Rainbow's life. It wasn't the insomnia that kept her awake. It was the nausea. Three hours later, Apple rushed to the loo.

(P.S- I just discovered the power of Simtography without the TAB. I hope the pictures are better than before)

Apple getting prepared to vomit. (Picture was taken through the shower window)
Apple vomitting. 
Apple rising up after vomitting.
A close up of Apple's face. (I think this is one of the best shots of Apple)
From the sink
"Well let me gussy up a lil before I hit the bed. Can't go back in looking like a mess, can I?"
"Damn, I look good, time to get some sleep now"
"Hey, you look like you haven't slept well last night"
"Yeah, well I spent the whole night throwing up"
"Really? We should get you to the hospital then"
"Why can't you just give me a medical check-up now?"
"Well, I'm not a gynecologist. I'm a cardiologist"

So, the both of them drove to the Riverview Hospital to consult Riverview's only gynecologist.

"Well, congratulations Apple Rainbow, your pregnant"
"Excuse me?"
"Your pregnant!"

And so Apple fainted. She wasn't as excited about the incoming baby as Jebediah was. After putting some sense into Apple, Apple finally accepted the fact that a baby was going to come out from her tummy soon. So, Jebediah bought some maternity clothes for Apple. That same night, Apple walked to the backyard after dinner to have some time to herself.

"Motherhood, huh? Am I ready for all this? Will I be a good mother? How will this child be in the future? I guess all that will be answered. This butterfly here is my freedom and I'm letting it go. I'm moving forward. I think I'm ready"
"Well, Apple Rainbow. Your days as a single lady is over and now it's time for us to move forward cause we're going to embrace motherhood. It's going to be tough but I know it's going to be worth it."
A sentimental shot of Apple staring at the moon.

From that day on, Apple decided to grow up for the future newborn. No one knows what the future holds for her. (Well, I do because I'm controlling this story but let's just ignore that fact, shall we?)

Till the next post! Dag dag!

Next post: Journey.

Dragging Him Home

Tsu tsu! I don't really know how to start intros about the posts anymore, so I'll just do a recap on the things that happened that are leading up to this post.

Previously, Apple completed an opportunity at the hospital and then she met Jebediah who works there as a doctor. Jebediah thought she's the preetiest female he ever met and so he asked them to be an item (which she accepted the offer). And not long after that, they WooHoo-ed and got married. Apple missed her siblings so much she moved out  of the house without telling Jebediah. (So, that's what you missed on... Glee!)

During the absence of her husband, there wasn't a second of the day where Jebediah wasn't in Apple's thoughts. Despite the fact that she misses him THAT much, she couldn't go back home. You see, she wasn't afraid of how Jebediah would react. It was the guilt.

It was a sunny Sunday morning. Apple was getting prepared to return to Jebediah's home. After having her favourite homecook Waffles, she stepped outside of the house and cycled. The wind was breezy, the neighbours were nice as usual and the traffic was free.  Everything was perfect until she saw the Riverview Hospital. It all came back to her when she saw the building.

So, she chickened out and went to the theater to watch a movie instead. When she stepped out from the theater, she saw Jebediah. There he was, waiting.

"Can I speak to you?"
He nodded.
"Before you say anything, let me speak first. What's wrong with you? Why did you leave the house without telling me? Do you know how worried I was? I even took a five day unpaid time off just to look for you"
"I'm sorry, I just missed my siblings and I wanted to see them. I know I should've told you but I was afraid you would say no"
"Well, enough said. Let's get into the car now?"


Jebediah and Apple Rainbow getting prepared to enter the car. (Spot the cougar in the picture)

On the way back to...


...home?
 "Why are we going back to my home?"
"Well, if you miss your siblings so much, you should just stay there"
"But.. I don't want things to end"
"Huh? I didn't mean that, I'm moving into your house"
"Really?! Thank you so much, Jebediah!"

So when Jebediah stepped into the home, he exchanged words with the other three siblings of Apple and all was fine. PV served some drinks. All was fine and Jebediah was added into the household. Apple and Jebediah decided to spend some quality time together after being away from each other for so long.

Sadistic Apple rejoicing about Jebediah's fall from the pole. (The pole is the only way I can build multi story houses because stairs and fences will appear glitchy)

Karma hits Apple.

Apple and Jebediah cuddling before they go wild on each other and WooHoo till their heads go off have some "fun".

Jebediah staring at Apple after the WooHoo marathon "fun"



That's all for this post. Jebediah joined the household. Bye!

Just filling in.

This post is just another random post. No storyline development here. Not going to say too much here so I'm just going to include more pictures, less words.


Ruby getting ready to play The Sims 3 refining her writing skills.

Crimson fishing at the local fishing pond centre (that no one goes to)

Ruby cutting out some free coupons from the newspaper (Yes, she is a Frugal)

Apple who had just finished sculpting an Ice statue of Jalapeno.

The birth of Posh-Victoria Rainbow. Her favourite colour is Spice Girls Spiceberry.

Affairs, affairs and more affairs.

"SERIOUSLY, SIS?! DO I LOOK LIKE A FREAKING GOBLIN TO YOU?!"

"Now, that's much better"
"Pfft"


 So, here are they and what they do at the moment. Ruby attempting to become the next big author of Riverview, Crimson wasting more time of his life fishing, Apple sculpting to the point where ice don't melt anymore, and Jalapeno who added one more member to the Rainbow household.

Here's a briefing about the new family member. Posh-Victoria (PV) is a SimBot generated to life on a Wednesday night in Riverview. Like any other SimBot, PV is a hydrophobic. PV is still currently trying to adapt to the normal Sim way of life.

That's all for now! More on PV next time.

In clockwise order : Posh-Victoria Rainbow, Ruby Rainbow, Apple Rainbow, Jalapeno Rainbow

Small update

Tsu tsu! I guess I don't really have to brief you guys about the previous post but if I have to, here it is. Apple got married to Jebediah and Jalapeno got engaged to Brandee "Psycho" Metz.

Jalapeno had thoughts of going back into the dating (and Try For Baby scene) after experiencing the hardness of taking care of children. Apple had thoughts of moving back to her home in Chihuahua Lane due to the fact that she misses her family too much. She's currently in a dilemma of choosing between family and husband.

Jalapeno seen ready to "Try For Baby" with a random female. (Sorry, can't remember her name)
That woman would then go on to giving birth to a pair of twin girls and moving out of Riverview.

Ruby always felt that Jalapeno's old hair didn't match with his new name. One fine day, Ruby decided to give Jalapeno a makeover.

"You can open your eyes now"
Jalapeno slowly opened his eyes and stared at his new hairstyle. Long story short, Jalapeno...

... hated the new hairstyle. Ruby's "Ooops" face = priceless.
In makeovers, the number two has always been the lucky number for Ruby. (Well, not always. Just once but still..) So, Ruby begged Jalapeno to give her another chance. Like Apple, Jalapeno reluctantly accepted the offer too.
"I can picture myself vainning more often with this new hairstyle. Thanks, sister!"
"No problem, well what can I say, two is my lucky number" (All I did was comb the fringe the other way)
Meanwhile, Apple decided to secretly move out from Jebediah's house and back into her home with her siblings.


In The Sims, people float around instead.

Beauty shot of Apple Rainbow
 That's all for now. Ciao.

Will you marry me?

Tsu tsu! So this post is obviously about the Rainbow sims getting married. (THIS IS GOING TO BE A LONG-ASS POST) Unfortunately, it's not some grand wedding where people are invited to party at though. Just a simple, intimate wedding. (Which I forgot to screenshot the moment. ARGHHHH) So, here's what you can expect in this post. Graphical glitches. More than one of the Rainbow sibling being featured.

Like I mentioned in the previous post, Apple and this doctor from the Riverview Hospital, Jebediah got together in just a few SimHours after they met each other. Apple moved into Jebediah's house (which is full of stairs and fences). Here's some of the highlights of Apple's life in Jebediah's home.

Apple and Jebediah getting ready to WooHoo.
After WooHoo-ing, Apple decided it was time to pop out the question. She wanted Jebediah to do so but unfortunately Jebediah is not one of my Sims and I have no control over him that confident enough to pop out the question.

 

"Jebediah, there's something I would like to show and ask you?"
"Yes?"

"Will you marry me?" (I can't believe I'm the one doing this)
"O-M-G!!! YES!! YES!!! Of course I will!" (I knew it she was going to ask me this, I'm not blind you know, I can see the bubble thought over her head)

Apple proposing to ballless Jebediah.
 
So, Apple would then get up and put the ring on Jebediah's finger because she preaches what Beyonce said, "If you like it then you should put a ring on it. Oh- oh- oh- oh- oh- oh- oh- oh- oh- oh- oh- oh (If only sims could get up and do the Single Ladies dance)

Apple then rushed to the house phone and invited Ruby over.

"What is it you wanted to show me?"
"Oh it's nothing much really" , Apple said while purposely accidentally flashing her hands to Ruby.
"You're engaged?!?!?! Who asked the question?"
"Err..... It's him! Yeah, he asked... the question... Hehehe"
"Okayyyy, so are you going to move back in?"
"I don't know yet. It's all up to him really"

Apple seen playing with Ruby. Jebediah watching at the back.
Meanwhile, Jalapeno is getting tired of his quest of being one of Riverview's top casanova and baby father. With two choices ladies to choose from, Jalapeno considered the pros and cons of both ladies. After some SimDays of considering, Jalapeno decided to settle down with Constance. Why? The reason is simple. He chose Constance because the cougar factor was a MAJOR turn on for him Constance gave birth to more kids than Brandee.

"Hey, Constance.. Do you want to settle down with me someday?"
"SETTLE DOWN?! How do you expect me to settle down with you? Isn't it bad enough that I'm taking care of the seven babies that you never bother taking care of?!"
"I'm sorry, I promise I'll take care of...."
"NO! You know what I want?! I WANT to go out CUB-HUNTING like any other COUGARS IN RIVERVIEW!! I DO NOT WANT TO BE STUCK TAKING CARE OF SEVEN KIDS!!"
"I'm sorry? I promise I'll make things better???"
"Well, I'm sorry too... Maybe you can stay at home taking care of the ki...."

Jalapeno quickly ended the phone conversation and never contacted Constance Shelley again. So, he decided to go to Brandee Metz's house and propose. Maybe three babies was all that he could handle.

"Will you marry me, Brandee Metz?" (Oh gosh, kids are so annoyingly loud)
"YES! YES! YES!!!" (I know right, Jalapeno.. Oh wait! How did I read his mind? I must be dreaming.. Hah..aha...?)

"I thought you never asked this, Jalapeno"
"Me too"
"What?"
"Nothing.. I just said, "I love you".. That's all"
"Aww, I love you too"
 A few SimHours in the Metz household later, Jalapeno was starting to doubt his choice of settling down with Brandee (the possible psycho girl)

Because in the Metz household, the kids are rude.
That night, Jalapeno decided to sneak out of the house and never see Brandee ever again. That's all for the post.

Till then! Ciao!

Next post : Small update (Can't think of any other better names)

You're the Apple of my eye.

As you could have guessed by looking at the title, this post is all about Apple Rainbow. So who is she? She's the eldest of the four Rainbow siblings. She was an "Iron Lady" before, but after her new makeover she's a new person. A person who is more carefree, more relaxed, more outgoing, and dare I say, more vivacious?

Let me get back to the title. This post will be about Apple's love life. (No, she's not going to have 184712095 partners like Jalapeno) . Well where can I start? It all started one day when Apple had to complete an opportunity at the Riverview Hospital.


Apple after completing the opportunity from the Riverview Hospital staff.
Apple didn't wanted to go back home too early. She didn't know what to do, so she toured the area near the Riverview Hospital. Who she was about to meet could be simplified with two words : Life. Changing.


"Hey, you look pretty.. Err, what's your name?", said the doctor.
Apple realising that the doctor was trying to hit on her, did what she knew she would always do. No, it's not replying back. Instead, the first thing she always knew that she would do if a doctor hits on her was to think. So, she thought, "Oh My God!!! A doctor is hitting on me! What should I do? *hyperventilates* Ok, I'll just keep calm and reply" .

"The name's Rainbow. Apple Rainbow. What's yours?"
"Jebediah. I'm a doctor, what do you work as?"
"A own businesss sculptor. Where.... "

The conversation would then go on for about two SimHours and they soon became friends.

Apple and Jebediah friends. (Ignore the gossip girl on the right)
Like most doctors in Riverview, Jebediah was an impatient one in love too. So, he decided to make the first romantic move the second after they become friends. As for Apple, she reciprocated Jebediah's love for her.


Jebediah and Apple spotted being all intimate towards each other.
"Since we're bringing this relationship to a whole new romantic level, can we just be an item?"


"Catch me and we will", whispered Apple.

"Here I come!" . (He better catch me or else there goes my hips)
"I'm ready!" (I hope I'll be able to catch her)

"You did it!!!" (Phew, that was a risky suggestion)
"I got you!" (Argh, why is she so heavy?)
 "Are we an item now?"
"Why don't you answer that question?"




Apple seen asking Jebediah for them to be an item. Jebediah of course, accepted the request.
Apple Rainbow would then go on dating Jebediah and moving into his house.

Till then! Ciao!!
