Charlie and Alex's grades are going up, but as you can see, their grades are not remarkable yet. Finishing homework will probably help with that! See? The next day they came home with an A+! And before I knew it, it was their birthday. Man, time flies fast. For Charlie, I chose the Popularity Aspiration. The turn ons and offs were chosen automatically, I just kept them like that. Alex got the Knowledge Aspiration, she's a smart girl. I mean, not that Charlie isn't smart, just like... Alex is smarter. xD Jacob is a little in the way (on the right side) but here's a nice pic of the twins together! Thanks to one of Charlies whims, I suddenly came to the realisation that both of the girls can go to college! There was a cutscene with Charlie and Andrew standing in front of the dorm house. This was really cute. You're a good dad, Andrew. Oh, okay, apparently they had to grow a bit more to be able to get into college xD I didn't get the cutscene for Alex when I merged her into the same dorm as Charlie, but that's okay. They're ready for their student life! Time to claim some doors! I always loved this door-claiming thing in the Sims 2. Of course, they became neighbours. This is what their rooms currently look like. I might change them a bit later. Here are the other students! You don't wanna know how much time it took to take pictures of the doors en find everyones names, but I got there... xD Then it was time to choose majors! Alex seems to be really interested in the paranormal, so I chose Philosophy for her. I didn't know what to choose for Charlie, so she got Physics xD She can still change if she doesn't like it. Time to get some work done! This Llama-boy already annoys me. Charlie found out that she could earn some money by helping out in the dorm cafetaria. And although a lot of time goes into studying... There's still some time to have fun with the other students. I am quite fond of Troy (the one with the headband), not gonna lie xD Don't forget to study though! Good grades are important. I don't know why, but I really hate these public showers. So I got rid of the couches in the room and gave the girls their own, private shower. Much better! Here you can see the girls going through their notes one last time before taking their final exam. No stress was needed, they both got an A+. Congrats!! And now that you got some money, maybe we can do something with that... But what? We'll find out in the next chapter!

Well... The girls look kinda... Very interesting...The one with shorter hair is Charlie, the other one is Alex. :P I gave Charlie a hat and that kinda seemed to make her look better...? xD Lets learn them to walk, talk and use the potty! Oh no, I forgot that playing in the toilet water was a thing in the Sims 2... Found some cute cc toddler clothes :3 Mostly pajama's though, cause that's what they wear like 90% of the time in my games. They made it! Charlie learned how to walk and talk from mom, Alex from dad and they both learned to potty from mom cause dad was at work. Talking about work, that's not great... Anyways, the toddlers are ready to age! First, Charlie. One happy grow-up. Charlie be singing happy birthday for her little sister. And that's a second happy grow-up! Now its time for cake. I took a closer look to Alex's face and I actually like how she looks now! The same doesn't really apply to Charlie. Anyways! Lets try to get these girls in Private School! They have the same haircut hahahhaha, I see an incoming friendship. While the parents are having dinner with the school principle, the kids are already dreaming of enrolling into private school. And right they are! A total score of 107/90! xD They'll only hear about the news tomorrow though, cause they fell asleep on the couch. To celebrate their enrolling in private school, I decided to fulfil this vacation whim. Jacob can come too! It took a while to get there, but they arrived safely and they are ready to check in! Also, that's Jacob in the background! :D Whoa, that's awesome! Charlie thinks its time for a swim! Alex on the other hand prefers to stay dry. She made a new friend in the process too! I forgot his name though. Also nice that the girls could finally meet their stepbrother! Charlie just had some nice talks with him. Alex and Jacob on the other hand did an entire hula session together and I think they liked it! I think its safe to say that they liked it! Same goes for the parents by the way ^^ Before they knew, vacation was over and they were back home. And for some reason the principle called Andrew the moment he got out of the car. Yep, that's a new friendship right there. For the rest of their day off, they worked on their skills. And the next day, it was time for the kid's first day of school! You'll find out how that went in the next update. See you then!
Ahh, touching snow with your bare hands. You can't see it in this picture, but the work-carpool keeps coming over. We don't need you anymore, we have our own car now! Yeey, promotion! Time to celebrate that with a date. Rebecca went over to Andrews place, picked him up and together they arrived at the community lot. They became best friends... Fell in love... This was the best date ever. Once Rebecca was home again, Andrew came over to drop some flowers. THIS IS WAY TOO CUTEEE. She immediately called him to thank him for the flowers, and then she asked him if he would like to come back and stay over. Of course he said yes! They ended up going to bed early, hehe. This is where I found out that Andrew has longer hair under that cap! I decided to add him to the family. Welcome Andrew! The first thing I did was checking out Andrews family tree, cause I don't know a thing about these Sims 2 premades anymore. I found out that Andrew has a teenage son, and I left the poor guy with his grandmother's good friends or something like that. Oops. "The Martin family is a pre-made family in Riverblossom Hills. The only living members are Andrew Martin and Jacob Martin. Andrew's late mother Linda Martin, was best friends with Catherine Viejo and Betty Goldstein, who Andrew and Jacob live with. Andrew's wife Elena Martin is deceased at the start of the game." I sadly can't find anything on how Elena Martin passed away, but it happened when Jacob was still very young. He and his dad lived with Catherine and Betty for as long as he remembers, and he sees them as his surrogate grandmothers, so I guess he'll be fine without his dad. I mean, he can still visit if he wants to. After Elena died, Andrew and little kid Jacob probably moved in with his mom, Catherine and Betty and got a lot of support from them. Sadly his mom passes away a few years later, and Andrew doesn't know what to do anymore. Jacob is in his teenage years by then, mostly keeping to himself playing video games. Catherine and Betty are trying their best to help the two boys, but its a hard time. Then, on a random day at work, a girl named Rebecca Briggs shows up. Rebecca invites Andrew over to her house, and the rest is history. Rebecca is the first one in a long while to open Andrews heart, and I think this is a beautiful story. Suddenly I see this, and I think "why not"? It's difficult to capture these cutscenes, but I got a screenshot with the ring in it! Yep, they got married while in their underwear, hahaha. Here we see Rebecca meeting her new stepson. She probably finds this all really weird, given that she doesn't have kids herself yet. Got me thinking, how young must Andrew have been to already have a teenage child??? Jacob seems very happy that his dad found love once again, but of course, he's still a teen with teenage problems and he wants to let it all out. You do you, man. Andrew seems to like the way things are right now. He feels that not only himself, but also his son, are feeling better these days, and that's all he wanted. Oh, baby? Baby!! And congrats with the promotion too! Lets take things slow for now. I... I said slow. Okay, this is kinda funny, hahaha. On this random Tuesday afternoon, Rebecca goes outside to throw away the trash, and then it happens. The baby is coming, Andrew hears a loud scream and comes rushing out. Did I read that correctly? Twins? Yep, I did. That's two babies right there. I kinda forgot that babies in the Sims 2 aren't stuck in baby beds. I didn't miss the babies laying everywhere on the ground though xD Anyways, we welcome Alex and Charlie into the family! Andrew is gonna have a hard time with all these girls in the household. Soon enough, the babies celebrated their first birthday, but their toddler looks are something for in the next update. Thanks for reading!
Welcome! I recently bumped into The Sims 2: Super Collection and decided to buy it on a whim cause I was feeling pretty nostalgic, and I'm so happy I did! At first I played with an existing family but soon enough I found myself creating this girl: Rebecca Briggs. She'll be the founder of my Sims 2 Legacy. Rebecca arrived at her new home in a taxi and the camera zoom that came with it really took me back to 2009 when I started playing the game. This is so fun to see again! The old white computers, haven't seen those in forever! And the old telephones! aaaaaaa I absolutely love this! Anyways, as you can see in Rebecca's whims, she either wants a gaming or a criminal career. Lets see what the old pc has to offer. Well, that's sad. I FORGOT ABOUT THE NEWSPAPER! She searched for jobs in here too, but still no luck. Ah well, lets befriend the old woman standing outside then. I don't know if Rebecca likes the old woman, lmao. Soooo lets try going somewhere! THE TELEPHONES HAHAHAHA NOOOO I FORGOT ABOUT THOSE. Rebecca quickly made some new friends, probably all premade sims. They all ate hotdogs together before heading home again! When Rebecca returned home, more people were waiting for her. None of them seemed really interested though. Its like they're forced to come over. But this I find kinda interesting! I forgot that this was a thing. Ohhh, yeah, that's how it is. Well, I'm not gonna spend much on this so I don't have high hopes, haahhaah. I mean, could've been worse? Not really Rebecca's type though. I can't see them together. He feels the same. Anyways, the next day, Rebecca found a job in the Gamer career! She also made friends with this stranger dog. Cuteeee. Since I didn't really like the interior of the house and I wanted the house to be a bit more 'modern', I searched the internet for Custom Content and this is the result. The computer probably got the biggest make-over, haha! I also got myself a mod to get rid of the nakey pixels. In my Sims 4 gameplay I'm so used to just see naked sims taking a bath or shower, so the pixels here actually annoyed me hahahaha. Oh, I also added CC curtains in the entire house! Snow began to form outside, I haven't seen snow like this since I was a child myself. The carpool to work and the skunk, hahahahahaha!! Oh hello there! This is Andrew. I kinda like Andrew. What about you, Rebecca? I think she likes him too. Yeah, 100% positive. Rebecca went to sleep with a smile on her face, and I decided to give her a garage. She won't have to carpool in the broken car anymore since she'll have her very own car!
That's all for this update. See you in the next one! |
