Hi lovelies, Welcome to my new tumblr-page <3

A little background: Some of you might know me as @andramsimming, though I haven't posted there in like forever and I probably never will. If I'm being totally honest, I've been struggling, for the longest time, with finding enjoyment when playing The Sims 3. I stopped enjoying my Current Household and fell out of love with every single sim I tried making afterwards. For some reason I just never got to the point, where I actually enjoyed myself and wanted to play. Everything was just meh... Until now! Right before the end of 2022 I made this cute little sim, called Jenna McCann. I had no preconceived plans for her and my only intension was to let the game take take the wheel and maybe that way I could fall in love once again. And boy did I... I fell hard, for the first time in months I truly enjoyed my sim and gameplay. Jenna evoked the excitement I'd only ever felt with the founder of my previous Current Household. I actually wanted to play and even more - I wanted to share my gameplay with others. That's when I decided to start fresh here on tumblr. Create a New Beginning with a new page, dedicated to Jenna and her future family. Hence how this page came to exist.

I won't plan out my gameplay too much. I'll mostly just let the game decide where the story will go and take each thing as it comes - hopefully, that way I won't get burned out as easily.

So... I would really appreciate it, if you would follow along <3 Maybe even drop a comment, like or reblog - But don't ever feel pressured to do so.

I'm currently editing screenshots and working on creating a little queue. I'll definitely also give you guys a proper introduction to Jenna in a separate post later on. This is more of a background story to how this tumblr came about.

It has officially begun! Come join me on my new journey with Lorelei Summers

Revamping of the Sorority

Soo… Where have I been?

It’s been quite a while, since I announced the creation of this tumblr and yet I haven’t been able to post anything on it until now, unfortunately.

But, I haven’t sat Idly by, though. I promise!

I’ve been revamping the sorority, as I felt like we’ve all seen the classic EA version and I wanted a new and improved backdrop for my founder Lorelei Summers. Whom I will be taking to college, so she can experience that young adult university life, while we’ll have the opportunity to truly get to know her and her character. 

And don’t you worry! You’ll get a proper introduction to Lorelei real soon. 

But, since I’ve been spicing up the sorority, I thought, that I’ll drop some pics of my hard work. Hope you all like it. If you see anything you’d like for your own game feel free to ask - I’m WCIF friendly and are always happy to help.  Soo.. Without further ado! Here is a couple of pictures of the main entrance to the sorority - aka. the formal seating area.

Hiatus

Hi guys,

I’ve been thinking and thinking lately - and I’ve kind of come to the conclusion, that I’m not having as much fun with the Fullmans as I ought to. Honestly I don’t know why… I still love them but I’m not sure I can keep them going. Soo I’ve decided to take a break from them and figure out what I want to do with them.

I think I need a fresh start - so I’ll be starting anew and I’m currently creating a little simblr for my new sim. So we’ll still be able to hang out together.

Click here.

Atm. there are no posts yet on my simblr, but the Cc-finds page I’m creating too is up and running. So come check it out and get ready to come on a new journey with me.

Party Time

The weekend is here and true to his word, Callum had invited a couple of friends over for a small party. Unfortunately Malik had gotten sick right before and couldn’t attend, even though he really wanted. He had called the day before all stuffy sounding and Callum had practically had to ban him from the party, just to be sure he didn’t infect any of the other guests. Callum felt bad, especially since the whole party was for Malik’s sake. But sometimes you have to stand your ground and do what is best for everyone.

The party started out great, everybody got more of their fair share of pizza and juice. The music was banging and Callum felt thoroughly entertained watching patzy shake her booty. He could tell she had had a few too many red solo cups filled with juice, from the way she was letting go and just enjoying herself. He loved whenever she got juiced. She always got really affectionate and honest about her feelings, which he found specifically cute. 

Not all of the guests handled the unlimited juice well. Callum had invited his tattoo artist, who he had struck up a friendship with after getting his back tattooed and Ryan is one strong and opinionated woman. Patzy found herself small talking with Ryan and Anna-Maria, but before she knew it, they were all discussing politics - a topic which Patzy didn’t really care about. Ryan was going on and on about this seasons hot topic and all the while Patzy was looking to Anna-Maria for help, but she was busy posting pictures on social media. Patzy was stuck without an escape route. Her being an imaginary friend meant, that there was so much more Patzy would rather focus her time and energy on - such as figuring herself out. How could she focus on politics, when she couldn’t even keep focus on something as simple as choosing a career path and sticking with it. Was she even happy being in the sports career? was she even happy, period?

Dinner for One... and Two Cats

Even though Callum and Patzy meet up most days to grab dinner at the local dinner before Patzy has to work. There are still days where it’s simply not possible to do so. Whenever this happens Callum usually cooks ups something easy at home and eats in front of the television. Usually the furry felines flock around him and begs for a bite, but it never happens. For some reason they seem to have forgotten, that Callum is the stricter parent, when it comes to their diet. They always gotta try and who knows, someday he might just give in and share his dinner.

Keeping Cool

Patzy and her dang snacks!  How is this girl not gigantic, she stuffs her face with snacks all the time. But hey... I guess you gotta keep cool in the summer heat XD

Bowling

It’s not only the girls that are getting to have some fun. Malik and Callum have - just like Patzy and Anna-Maria - been inseparable lately. They normally head over to the arcade, instead of the park. Both of the guys are extremely competitive, so they can easily spend hours upon hours playing each other and battling it out. Normally Patzy has to call Callum and remind him what time it is and that it’s getting late. Whenever she works evenings, Callum loses track of time. He gets so caught up in the games and atmosphere. Luckily he’s rather disciplined, so he has never missed a day of work, even while staying out late... but... there are days, where he’s running on only a couple of hours of sleep.

“You know?... Umm...” Malik said as he spun around to face Callum after sending his bowling-ball down the lane, hitting the last standing bowling pin.  “Hmm?...” Callum answered back not really listening to what Malik was saying, as he was trying to figure out, how he should curve the ball in order to get a strike. “That girl... Um, Anna-Maria... She and Patzy have been quite close lately, right?” Malik kept going, as Callum’s ball hit a perfect strike.  Callum yelled out a little cheer and turned toward Malik, “Yeah, what of it?” he asked and scratched his neck, sending Malik a questioning stare. Malik picked up his bowling-ball and readied himself for his turn. “Well... Um... You know... She’s kinda hot...” Malik finally muttered and Callum couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Seeing the usually calm and suave Malik struggle was rather amusing. “Yeah, she’s smoking! But what does that have to do with anything?” Callum asked grinning, sending Malik a smug look. Malik turned red around his ears and tried to focus on his shot.  “Well, do you know whether or not she’s single?” Malik finally asked, as his ball hit the pins. Callum could tell Malik was a little annoyed over the fact he felt somewhat embarrassed. Callum smiled and patted Malik on the shoulder before grabbing his own bowling-ball, “I think so. Patzy has never mentioned anything about a boyfriend before and I know for a fact that Anna-Maria lives alone - I mean, no man can endure that much tone-deaf BTS karaoke” He laughed, “But you already know that, you live in our building too right?”. Malik didn’t answer at first, he then sighed as if he was preparing to do a bungee jump. “Well, do you think Patzy can do a fella a solid and slide Anna-Maria my number or better yet... give me hers”. Callum tried his best not to burst out in laughter, Malik looked hillariuous all red in the face like a littel schoolboy asking his first crush to be his valentine. “Sure, dude... but whay don’t I do you one better! Why don’t I throw a party this weekend and invite the both of you. I mean, there’s no icebreaker better than a little juice, pizza, and music” Callum asked and send Malik a cheeky grin.

Girls Day at the Park

With the weather being lovely and warm, Patzy and the neighbor, Anna-Maria Bloomberg, decided to visit the local summer festival at the park. It had been going on for a couple of days, but Callum had been too busy to take Patzy, so she decided to invite Anna-Marie out for a bit of fun in the sun.

Lately the two of them has been spending a lot of time together, getting closer and closer. Whenever Callum is out for work, Patzy usually invites her over for a movie or an yoga session. Most days the meet up and it’s safe to say, that Anna-Maria has become Patzy’s new BFF.

Some days Patzy feels a bit guilty about the closeness she has with Anna-Maria. It’s no secret that Patzy has a special bond with McKenna, as they are the only two girls in the Fullman family. It was always them against the boys. And Patzy has been missing her a lot ever since McKenna moved to Italy. Facetime is never the same as meeting in person, But with both of them being busy with work and low on money, meeting up hasn’t been an option. To some degree Patzy feels like she’s trying to replace McKenna with Anna-Maria. But the two women are complete opposites and not much alike, Anna-Maria is much more outgoing and partyfixated, whereas McKenna is more quiet and a homebody. But Patzy still feels guilty though - maybe for thinking, that McKenna could be replaced with someone else. But hanging out with a girl has been awesome and Patzy is rather proud of herself. She has always had trouble talking to girls, she never really felt a connection - only with McKenna, but that didn’t count as they lived under the same roof. It was different with Anna-Maria. She and Patzy had a special connection and deep down Patzy knew that this was something rather exciting - something unique and raw.

Meet the New Family member

Now that Cookie isn’t a kitten anymore and things are becoming a little more hectic at work, Callum and Patzy felt like he need a friend to keep him company while they’re out and about.  Both of them has been looking far and wide for a little furry friend for them to adopt, but with no luck unfortunately, which Patzy has been rather down about it.

One day however a little fluffy nugget of a cat turned up in the local paper, ready to be adopted. She was adorable with her little bobtail. Both Callum and Pazy were sold right away. They reached out to the owner in order to enquire, if she still was available for adoption and luckily for them - she was! The next day they headed off to retrieve her. She was so sweet, but a little shy. Her original name was Karen, but neither Patzy or Callum felt like the name suited her. So Patzy named her Coco, short for coconut, to go with the food theme she had decided on, when naming Cookie.

Even though Coco is a bit shy, she quickly warmed up to the boys in the house. She and Cookie enjoy playing together and Callum has even caught them taking a nap - all snuggled up together, melting into one big fluffy ball of fur. But Coco still seem a little wary of Patzy - maybe she has a thing about females - but hopefully it won’t last for long.

Good News Guys!!

Yay! I’ve finally managed to queue a couple of posts up, so expect a few days with regular uploads ❤️

*patting myself on the shoulder*

I’ll try and keep up the queue, now that I’ve actually managed to make one. But plz forgive me if I can’t. I’ll do my best but can’t promise, that life won’t get in the way again. I still feel bad for letting you guys down and neglecting my tumblr. But I can’t keep beating myself up over it - Let this be a new new start. Start a fresh and find joy in TS3 again.

Quick Dinner Date

Even though their schedules have been rather hectic, Callum and Patzy still find time for each other as a couple. Most nights they simply grab a quick bite to eat at the local diner, after Callum get off from work and before Patzy has clock in. It might not be the most elaborate and romantic date with candlelight and a 3 course meal, but they both love it. For them It’s the simple kind of dates that matter. The fact that they manage to meet up and enjoy each other for half an hour, is way more important than how fancy the date is.

Boys Night Out

Patzy has been working overtime lately, in order to advance herself career wise. She’s in the sports career and most games take place in the evening.  This means Callum has a lot of long lonely evenings, just him and Cookie. And although he loves to cuddle on the sofa with the cat, it can be rather boring for an energetic young man.

But fret not dear Callum, right next door lives an young man who can rescue you from the dreaded boredom! Malik Burbank is Callum and Patzy’s nextdoor neighbor. He’s often quiet and they don’t really hear much from him, unlike their other neighbor Anna-Maria Bloomberg - she’s the loud one in the building. But Malik is golden, and although Callum has only met Malik a couple of times in the hallway while taking out the trash. He and Malik just hit it off straight away and it didn’t take long for them to connect over their shared love of arcade-games and sports. Soon they were two peas in a pod.

Quality Time

Sooo... Have you guys missed me? I’ve surely missed you! And I’m so sorry, that I’ve just disappeared from Tumblr once again. Life got in the way and will probably remain rather hectic for the foreseeable future - Gosh dang it! I’m amazed and in awe of all the Simblrs, that manage in keep a regular upload schedule. I struggle with finding time to play, edit screenshots and create posts, so - Hat off to you guys!  I can’t promise, that I’ll do better - but I’ll try my best. Tbh, the post will probably stay rather sporadic the upcoming time, but at least I’ll manage to post now and again, XD

Let’s check back in with Callum and Patzy in SimMeapolis. Callum was busy working on his advancement in his career and Patzy was struggling with her mental wellbeing, when we left them.

Since Patzy has been in such a funk mentally lately, she’s been questioning almost everything about herself. What she wants to do in life, who she really is and so on. Callum has been noticing her inner struggle and decided, that they should spend some quality time as a couple to give her mind a little break. He therefore invited Patzy out for a date. Besides, a date was the perfect opportunity for Callum to show of his gaming-skills and maybe get some brownie-points for being cool. He let Patzy start and confidently gave her tips on how to score. Patzy smirked and played along, letting Callum show off.

It didn’t last long however. Patzy leaned over the table and swoosh... she send her weight down the board, hitting Callum’s and shuffling away - securing herself the win. Patzy laughed as Callum complained about beginners luck. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders and planted a kiss on his lips, grinning. Callum smiled back and returned the kiss. “Better luck next time Mr. Fullman” Patzy giggled, booping Callum’s nose with hers. “At least I’ve got luck in love” Callum answered and kissed her wholeheartedly.

Yoga

Patzy’s lack of advancement at her job has been messing with her lately. She has been feeling rather anxious and out of sorts. Her mood has been all over the place and she beginning to question herself and her abilities. Luckily Callum managed to calm her worries down and make is so her bad thoughts don’t manifest too often. But Patzy still feels bothered by it, which is why she has taken up yoga lately - hoping it will give her a little more mental stability.

Romance and Roses

Callum usually laughs when Patzy gets all jealous of Cookie. He finds it adorable.  Patzy has been having a hard time at her job, she’s kind of plateauing - not really advancing, and is has bought her spirits down a bit. Callum therefore decided he would surprise her with a bouquet of red roses after work, hoping it would cheer her up.

Big Boy Now!

Cookie aged up and gosh is he just the cutest!

Both Patzy and Callum can’t get enough of his little fluffy face. Patzy usually fills her blog with cute cat pictures of Cookie, much to her followers delight.  And every day, after work, Callum rushes to cuddle and play with his baby boy. Patzy is even beginning to get a little jealous of the cat, so she has demanded that Callum has to give her smooches before he is allowed to dote on Cookie.
