The Trash into Treasure Extravaganza
I love dumpster diving in The Sims 3. It's probably my favorite hobby to save my Sims from getting stir-crazy. (Maybe we can all relate right now!) I've been thinking about doing this idea for a wh...

(I played for 1 Sim week and then my game crashed so I had to start all over from Sim Day 1 again. This storyline will combine both aspects of the crashed and restarted gameplay. Happy reading!)
Day 1 Arrival
Constance Shelley, signing in. So I might have forgotten to mention (I do that because I'm an absent-minded Sim) that I grew up in Sunset Valley. I totally failed to mention that. I actually didn't even remember until I went around asking a bunch of people where their alma mater is and they said Community High School and I'm like, “Wait, you went to CHS?! I went to CHS too!! What a small world!”
I mean I do look a lot different now after my makeover than I looked before so why would they remember me? Before when I was just “mousy Connie Shelley” that was always trying to be “perfect”, I would get bullied for being so “ditsy” or being a trip. They would say things like “Hey, Connie Shelley, did you remember to check the sink after washing your hands three times?” or “Hey Connie Shelley, you just ate lunch, don't you need to brush your teeth twice before 4th period started?” or “Hey Connie Shelley, did you forget to change for P.E. class again?” or “Connnnie Shelley, did you forget you were eating lunch while eating lunch? HA!”

That's one of the reasons why I moved to Riverview and started having people call me by my full name Constance so they would take more seriously. But after living in Riverview, I started to miss the small town feel of my hometown, missed the beach, the library, getting chili fries at Hogan's. I mean there's a Hogan's in Riverview too but they just do things different. Even the shakes taste different. It could just be the nostalgia.
What was I talking about again? I forget...
So I took the taxi from the SV Airport to my new humble beach abode and the first thing I notice when I look around was how empty the house was. There's a fridge, stove, toilet, shower, sink, some lights, but that's about it. I'm happy that it's at least partially furnished and not completely bare. I didn't live by the beach back when I lived in SV.

When I was younger, I remember going to the beach, smelling that wonderful salt air for the first time and then a gust of marine wind blew sand everywhere and I freaked out. “It's in my eyes, it's in my mouth! Blegh, blegh, blegh...I can taste the granules!!!”
That was my first and last trip to the beach but I mean I'm a new person now. This new Constance Shelley, she might even LOVE the beach!
