Song of the Day! Couchella...

Ok I am back-ish! Travis Scott's set was disappointing, also, I only like one Post Malone song so I'll ignore that happened. Instead, Megan had a great show and since Coachella said she ran out of time while she was trying to perform this song here it is now! Boo Coachella! She should have been a headliner! I really do love this song too!

Lady Gaga had the best headline performance! Best non-headline main stage performance hmmmm, Missy Eliott. Random, Benson Boone Queen thing was fun, Yo Gabba Gabba lol, The Prodigy good performance!

I will get back to posting this week! Sorry for the sudden hiatus again!

Song of The Day! Couchella!

I always do love when older acts get headline sets! Lady Gaga was amazing last night as well and Missy Elliott before her!

I am still here!!!

Song of the Day! Coachella!

Lady Gaga is certainly headliner worthy with her discography and I'm sure she will have a very flashy set! I think we all live for the applause, applause, applause, for the applause-plause...

Oops I did not post tomorrow! Hiccup, had some thing scatch up to me and wasn't around my computer much yesterday!

Happy Bday Kip!!!!

Kip's Birthday

A few short weeks later, Kip had his birthday surrounded by all his friends and family. Takuya still came with Vasily, but Kip had to admit it was odd to see him without Mateo. He was still his cheerful self, if somewhat dimmed in his older age. Prim spent the party laughing off Lindsey's clumsy advances, unable to take the young woman seriously. Jacob likewise found it entertaining.

"She knows she doesn't have a chance, right?" Jacob asked Kip.

"I think so? It's hilarious either way."

"It really it."

Awww! You'll make it through this!

I can barely keep up with all my thoughts and emotions after Tami leaves. And before I know it, I’m sitting there in tears. What am I going to do without my daughter and wife? I pull out my phone, tempted to call Maia to beg and plead for her forgiveness. But I don’t want to make things worse. I survey my list of contacts and choose a different one instead.

Awww Callie! She tried her best here!!!

Day ten - Chloe group part 1/2

@belsasim, @igglemouse, @invisiblequeen, @paracosmic-sims, @perolesims, @simscici

Another day begins in the villa. Whether contestants began the day with a thoughtful shower, brisk shower, or flirty shower was randomised. As was whether or not they would brush their teeth (getting the corresponding confident moodlet). Room order was also randomised as the distance from the dining room would affect how long contestants had to talk to each other and Deanna before the challenge. Autonomy was set to full meaning after breakfast it was up to contestants to socialise or not (room doors were locked to prevent excessive computer usage).

Callie was not the first to the kitchen but she was the first contestant to demand a hug before chatting with Deanna. Like normal Deanna gave everyone a compliment, with the consequence of her own breakfast dragging on. It was alright though as most contestants chose to stay at the breakfast table chatting until it was time to leave for the challenge.

Devin: Welcome Chloe group. Today's challenge has been chosen by Deanna. My little sister loves bowling, though her friends don't always enjoy going with her. You're being split in to teams of three. The winner of each lane will join Deanna this afternoon on a duo date

After contestants give their starting comments to camera they are sorted in to groups. Groups were randomly assigned with the first person in each team inviting the others to bowl.

Team 1: Apolline, Callie, Elise

Team 2: Billie, Hana, Lara

Apolline: *Clearly winces* This… Is definitely out of my expertise. Throwing heavy balls around? My poor arms…

No Apolline did not dab at the ball, that is part of a wobble. She may have looked disappointed at her first few bowls but Deanna was happy to cheer her on. In the end Apolline did manage to get a strike!

Billie (voiceover): I'll probably stick my fingers in the ball holes and their be dirty enough that I could finger paint! But it's fine, that's a silver lining, I guess!

So about that ball... Billie picked it up, went to bowl and somehow... the ball got tossed up in the air and vanished. You can see here how she ducks out of the way, unfortunately that ball is still unaccounted for... Despite her fumbles Billie also managed to get a strike.

Callie (voiceover): Oh umm, I'm not even sure I can pick up a bowling ball!

Callie could indeed pick up a bowling ball! Sadly she could also slip with a bowling ball, but at least she held on to it during the tumble? Across the frames Callie remained upbeat and positive, even if her highest score was six.

Hana (voiceover): I was happy when I heard what the challenge was. The bowling alley in Mt Komorebi may or may not be where the queer youth gather *laughs* 🤭

Hana's confidence in herself was not misplaced. She knew what she was doing, and did her best to give the rest of the ladies pointers- probably a reason Callie remained in her good mood. Whether bowling gently or intently, Hana was at the top of her game, getting multiple strikes.

Elise (voiceover): Ooooo this is gonna be ultra fun! Let me grab my bowling shoes, and let's hit the alleys!

Almost as chipper as Callie for the day was Elise. She walked up to the lane with a determination to have a good time. The fun approach seemed to work for her, and she managed to get some high scores between cracking jokes and bowling under her leg.

Lara (voiceover): I was excited to hear the first challenge was bowling! I think it's something that everyone is at a similar level in you know? It's nice to learn more about what Deanna is interested in

Lara seemed excited to begin bowling, testing out her skills against her teammates. Despite the excitement she had a few bad bowls... Lara may have stayed upright but so did the pins. With Hana's encouragement though Lara did manage to get herself a strike before the game was done.

Deanna: Bowling today was interesting. Despite a lot of the girls having some bad bowls they mostly remained upbeat. No one took the challenge as life and death which was nice

Bowl after bowl was rolled until there was hardly a pin left standing. The points were tallied by the game and the winning sims were:

Elise & Hana

Reactions and duo date tomorrow.

Protecc her at all costs!!!

One good thing about unlocking so many motor milestones so fast, Emily got trusted with some more space in the house. Sure the main door was babyproofed within an inch of its life but there was so much to explore inside!

Emily for one enjoyed playing with her bear from Grandad Zayden, as well as a pink bunny rattle that had previously been Coraline’s. She couldn’t sit still forever though and after one particularly hilarious toy time she decided to look around for the nearest human. Hearing noise from the other side of the kitchen she set off.

Vacuum: *beeps*

Emily: *slips and thinks* the heck is that? Why are my feet slippery? How do I crawl again?

Week 3 ~ The Perfect Canvas ~ Friday

With art on my mind I decide to create another piece for my new series because one must paint when she gets the urge to. Don't look too much into this particular art piece, it really is just a drink being tipped over...or is it?! Also, yes, I do bring out the holy book for this one as well, maybe it helps with inspiration? I don't know.

Week 3 ~ The Perfect Canvas ~ Friday

But Marisol does deserve an expensive diamond necklace! Of course she does! I probably should have returned it but it's so cute and I it will be just the perfect addition to sooo many outfits!

Jerónimo did have a small note in the package, just a simple 'thank you for the art' and nothing more. I like that he kept it professional and I hope he knows that's all our relationship will ever be.

Jerónimo does indeed send me a gift and oh Watcher, it's in a small package which means it is likely something very expensive. I think about returning it but...

I really really do need to tell Hugo about this as well, the sooner the better, maybe later tonight?

Week 3 ~ The Perfect Canvas ~ Friday

Since Hugo is off to work I figure I should be off to work just as well! Thankfully, my job includes chilling at home, turning on music, and making art. Yes, Marisol is incredibly fortunate!

Week 3 ~ The Perfect Canvas ~ Friday

I run into Hugo in the kitchen because of course it is usually the first stop anyone makes after waking up and before he can have his own breakfast I find myself curious about his future plans.

Marisol: So, have you decided what you will do when it comes to your job?

Hugo: My job? You mean where I'm headed today, TechMunch?

Marisol: Yeah! I mean, you mentioned before how it wasn't your passion and how you want to focus on making nectar but it feels like you don't have enough time to do both and...

I guess I am asking what his plans are? I think, before the news of my pregnancy I would not have thought it important, I wanted to be with Hugo for who he is and didn't think too much on his career, but now? Well, now I'm wondering if he shouldn't take a more pragmatic approach. Does he plan on quitting his job to follow his dream and should I get in the way of this should he choose it?

Hugo: For now I can try to do both, the nectar on the side I suppose? I still have so much to learn when it comes to crafting the perfect bottle after all so it would be stupid to just leave my current career.

Ah and that is exactly what I am want to hear! I just don't want to be the only one bringing simoleons to the house because soon we will have a mouth to feed!

Week 3 ~ The Perfect Canvas ~ Friday

I can't help but think about my pregnancy as the day starts, it dominates my thoughts, rightfully so. It just feels like there is so much to do planning wise and I already have so much going on in my life already, could this only further complicate things? The answer to that must be yes but I'll try my best to not let it all overwhelm me.

Unfortunately I must spend the rest of my night performing maitenance because things are continuing to break in this rental of mines. The sooner I can move out of here the better...

Week 3 ~ Just A Smile ~ Monday

I make it back home a little late but what is time anyway? Seriously, what is it?

ANYWAYS, Citra calls and mostly talks about her plants. It is kind of funny how when I met her I would have never thought to assume her to be a stoner but I think I see it now? Especially the more I hear from her.
