My Life in Sulani

My Life in Sulani: Week 1, Pt.1

My name is Lisa Lorde and I live or I should say that I lived in Oasis Springs until that one fateful day that I got a call from the Oasis Springs Travel Agency where I had filled out a contest form to win a 2 week trip to Sulani.
https://i.imgur.com/lZyEU2ul.png

Boy was I so elated that I had let my friend talk me into filling out the contest form online as I wasn't going to because I just knew that I wouldn't win that trip but boy was I ever so wrong.
https://i.imgur.com/lKxVD3Ql.png

So after I had packed my bags and got on the plane to fly, the first thing that I do once I had arrived was to change into my swimsuit and headed for that nice clear water for a swim.
https://i.imgur.com/9B27LYNl.png

https://i.imgur.com/JZt0wqll.png

I did some snorkeling as well. It felt so good swimming in the nice clear water and I had so much fun.
https://i.imgur.com/lZqagbCl.png
https://i.imgur.com/pPtTb4jl.png

Then I did some boating.
https://i.imgur.com/K0RLcxGl.png
https://i.imgur.com/Sa7gIe7l.png

But then I had to head back to the shoreline as I had heard someone yelling Hello from the shore to get my attention.
https://i.imgur.com/NC4PucYl.png

When I got out of the rental boat and walked around to the front of the house, I noticed that I had a guest waiting for me so that they could introduce themselves and to welcome me to the island. She introduced herself to me as Keala Hoapili and stated that she is a native of the island. We talked for a while before she had to leave but said that she will be back to visit me sometime and told me to that I could come and visit her while I was there as well.
https://i.imgur.com/HDFUy4fl.png

After Keala had left, I had decided to go out and explore the island and came across a swing set and decided that I needed to swing for a little while.
https://i.imgur.com/ty6HMVwl.png

Then I went looking for some seashells to try to complete the shell collection before I have to leave and go home to Oasis Springs since anything that I find and paint have to stay in a museum in Sulani. (I was playing Island Living in November 2021 when they had it for free to play for a few days, so I was trying to make the most of it before it ended. So I had decided to write the story as if I wasn't allowed to bring anything home with me as it needed to stay on islands. But I did get the pack in December of that year as an early birthday present.)
https://i.imgur.com/1P55NAml.png

After searching for some shells which I did find, I stopped and just took a look around me to take in the beauty of the land and water around me. A girl could get used to living the island life.
https://i.imgur.com/7OoIP3Zl.png

And then I got to talking to another sim on the island for a bit.
https://i.imgur.com/yBaDijHl.png

And then it was back to searching for shells again.
https://i.imgur.com/9lgOmdLl.png

Then I met with and chatted with Nalani Mah'ai for a bit.
https://i.imgur.com/3AVsj5ql.png
https://i.imgur.com/PfbYhZZl.png

With all of the swimming that I was doing, I got hungry and cooked up some hotdogs on the grill and sat down on the swing to eat them.

All for now but will update some more later. So I hope that you all enjoy my story... :)

And Happy Simming everyone... :)

  • My Life in Sulani: Week 1, Pt. 8

    After returning home from my water adventures, I fixed me a sandwich before I took myself a bath. I then played some games and did a internet search on my phone before heading to bed. I sure do love sleeping outside on the back overlooking the water. The sound of the waterfall in the distance is very calming and the fresh air feels so good. I sometimes think that I hear dolphins swimming around in the area right behind my house. A girl could get used to living like this all of the time.

    I woke up the next morning feeling refresh and ready for the new day as I had a nice peaceful sleep out in the cool air. After making my bed up, I went inside and fixed me some breakfast before going into the bathroom to clean the dirty bathtub.
    https://i.imgur.com/Q1tscpyl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/BqiHcaKl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/YsXHvqIl.png

    After cleaning the tub and washing myself up, I went outside for a little swim. Then after I finished swimming, I ran into Leinani Tanielu and we talked for a little bit.
    https://i.imgur.com/Wbyzyk2l.png
    https://i.imgur.com/WO0k5e8l.png

    A nice little house with a pick-up truck parked outside. (Oh how I wish that we could have cars that we can drive in this game.)
    https://i.imgur.com/od1znJKl.png

    After Leinani and I got done talking, I went and sat down for a little bit before heading over to the Sand Bar where I ended up dancing until Leinani Paoa came in and started talking to me.
    https://i.imgur.com/rXysrp7l.png
    https://i.imgur.com/6tkZSpyl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/Dq1V8TQl.png

    I then went over to the bar and ordered myself a drink and watched Sione Tilo show off his mixing skills. When I got done with my drink, I had the urge to do some sit-ups in front of the bar.
    https://i.imgur.com/AHoUrS8l.png
    https://i.imgur.com/dDXfeiel.png

    I was feeling brave again and so I decided to head back over to the cave where I saw Tamati Hauata following me but he headed off in the other direction, so I didn't get to talk to him. I slowly peeked inside of the cave as I remembered what happened the last time that I was there, so I want to be very cautious going in so that I don't get dragged by an unsuspecting entity of any kind. Once I felt it was safe to go in, I slowly proceeded to enter the cave. Once I got in there and started looking around, I saw some radiating light and headed off in that direction to investigate. Of course I got careless and fell into an underground river where I got all soaked from my head down to my toes.

    https://i.imgur.com/3nn2f1Rl.jpg

    After pulling myself out of the river, I exited the cave and started looking for more seashells. I then went for another nighttime swim. Yes, I know that I really shouldn't be doing that at night not knowing what or who might surprise me while I'm swimming but it's so beautiful at night that I can't really help myself.
    https://i.imgur.com/RfO1tSCl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/WheY0Owl.png

    I then decided to swim over to the buoy before heading over to the waterfall to play in it before heading back to the house for bedtime.

    And this concludes the first week of my life in Sulani.

  • My Life in Sulani: Week 2, Pt. 1

    After getting a few hours of sleep, I got up and made my bed before having my breakfast. After cleaning up the dishes, I went for yet another swim and doing more seashell searching. I then played some online games on my phone and sent a text with some pictures to my friend Don Nathan.
    https://i.imgur.com/U4PRPzyl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/0NupELKl.png

    When I got back to my side of the shore, I saw some balloons lined up on the lot next to mine and headed over to take a look at them. Once I got over there, I was told that they were set up for Family Fun Day. They also had some food vendors and some lounge chairs and towels for people to use as well as a swing that was set up along the edge of the water. I was a fun event that they had going on.
    https://i.imgur.com/0rnGW0ol.png

    I did some swimming and snorkeling until Eliza wanted to come for a visit
    https://i.imgur.com/jUy4Mvel.png
    https://i.imgur.com/4Y9qgvbl.png

    When Eliza left and got back to the house, I had another visitor waiting for me, so I had invited her inside where we talked for a little bit while I got me something to eat. Of course I apologized for not having made enough food to share with my visitors and she said that it was okay. Then more people started to show up, so I had invited all of them inside.
    https://i.imgur.com/LsG8yvkl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/NBpzEX7l.png
    https://i.imgur.com/sMMHNlfl.png

    We all stood around chatting with one another and having a good time. Makoa asked if it was okay to grab a bite to eat, so I told him to help himself to some food. I then grabbed me a bowl of chips while Makoa got up and started dancing to the music. And then everyone said their goodnights and then left.

    https://i.imgur.com/J66v446l.png

    Once everyone left and had cleaned up the dirty dishes, I grabbed myself a glass of water before heading to bed out on the deck for a good night's sleep.

    Sorry that this is a shorter update but I had taken over 500 pictures during the free weekend for this pack. I have 10 pages of pictures over on imgur, so I'm going by page number and selecting which photos that I will be using as I'm doing my update. So until I can get what I have posted over in this thread, I probably won't be playing that save until I am caught up with this thread... :)

    And thanks for reading my story... <3

    After getting up from sleeping and making my bed up, I had to walk real slowly to the bathroom or I would have an unwanted accident on my way to the bathroom... :blush:
    https://i.imgur.com/M24gbt8l.png

    I then fixed me some eggs and toast for my breakfast. Yummy!
    https://i.imgur.com/OzoZngol.png

    I quickly cleaned up my dishes and had to go mop of the bathroom floor as the toilet broke but had to stop so that I could fix the toilet first as the water just kept coming out.
    https://i.imgur.com/X2BhqgIl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/S8QWzEml.png

    And since I didn't have time to grab me a glass of water after eating, I got me one after fixing the toilet and washing my hands first and then got back to mopping up the puddle of water.
    https://i.imgur.com/ELDPmF0l.png
    https://i.imgur.com/t5jQIE2l.png

    I then wrote out some checks to my bills for my house back home in Oasis Springs. Plus I had sent out a postcard to my friend, Don Nathan letting him know that I was having myself a good time and wishing that he was here to see the beauty of the islands.
    https://i.imgur.com/HHIP7QRl.png

    I then decided to head back down to the beach to do more swimming in the deeper waters but had to stop to take a look at this nice scenery.
    https://i.imgur.com/oUFm96al.png

    After enjoying the view, I swam out to the buoy to do some scuba diving and then some swimming afterwards. But as I was trying to swim, something grabbed me from below and started to drag me around again.
    https://i.imgur.com/1Es5WrZl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/4BE05byl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/XGNmdBHl.png

    Once I was released from whatever was holding me, I had to catch my breath. I then decided to use the jet ski again until I had decided to head back to the beach house to use the bathroom and to get me something to eat.
    https://i.imgur.com/g2fCA5dl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/SVpB2hVl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/KTcqZkUl.png

    I then fixed me some Kava to try out before heading off to bed

  • My Life in Sulani: Week 2, Pt. 3

    After getting up the next morning and eating, I headed off back to the cave yet again where I had seen some graffiti on the walls of the cave, so I went over to clean up whatever I could of it before heading back outside to search for more seashells.
    https://i.imgur.com/v39e1BWl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/d6ztA9wl.jpg
    https://i.imgur.com/RUOpZbcl.png

    I then headed back over to the waterfall where I had played at for a little while before finding me a good fishing spot.
    https://i.imgur.com/NQC6As4l.png
    https://i.imgur.com/nGpSEIJl.png

    After doing a little fishing, I wanted to build me a sand castle, so I built a sand shark instead of a castle.
    https://i.imgur.com/SO4WiuNl.png

    I then heard a bunch of other people close by swimming, so I went over to where they were and started swimming and talking to them before going over to the little isle to search for more shells.
    https://i.imgur.com/AqtBKrJl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/z8my2Xil.png

    After I got done searching for shells, I swam out to the buoy where I saw some dolphins swimming around and decided to swim with them until it was time to go get me something to eat. After grabbing me a plate of food, I went and sat down with my newfound friends so that we could chat while we were eating. I'm sure going to miss all of my new friends once I go home unless if by some miracle I get to keep the beach house which is unlikely since the travel agency owns it.
    https://i.imgur.com/g0Uwg4Sl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/YDPZzd2l.png
    https://i.imgur.com/srTLQqTl.png

    I headed on back to the beach house to use the bathroom and to take out the trash before looking for more shells.
    https://i.imgur.com/qtDOkSul.png
    https://i.imgur.com/WRxD8fwl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/PjMrZhRl.png

    Then it was off to bed again.
    https://i.imgur.com/VUEh88Nl.png

  • My Life in Sulani: Week 2, Pt. 4

    Then it was breakfast again but this time the refrigerator broke while I was eating, so I had to fix it as I didn't want to play anyone to come and fix it.
    https://i.imgur.com/KVkK5kVl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/AXngbbul.png
    https://i.imgur.com/u8ZQHYil.png

    I then cleaned up the mess in the kitchen before heading over to the Sand Bar where the usual crew is hanging out at.
    https://i.imgur.com/5FrZpKil.png
    https://i.imgur.com/kSpXQ0fl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/6DaIQuAl.png

    Then it was off to do more swimming and floating on my back before heading home for a bit to eat and then bedtime.
    https://i.imgur.com/wXKBwYnl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/dsa7J2Sl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/HJMY4yHl.png

    I then decided to call up some of my new friends and have a Kava party later today.
    https://i.imgur.com/lb2O7fZl.png

    After cleaning up the old food and cleaning the dirty dishes, I did some dancing to some Bee Gees before going swimming and then back to the waterfall so that I could bathe in it.
    https://i.imgur.com/N7tWShel.png
    https://i.imgur.com/Qcz7ea8l.png
    https://i.imgur.com/aigrJFtl.png

    But while I was bathing in the waterfall, Losfina had spotted me taking a shower in the waterfall and was mortified. But since I was enjoying my shower, I didn't see her there and she didn't didn't say anything and did an about face leaving in an embarrassed state.
    https://i.imgur.com/wRjGJtul.png
    https://i.imgur.com/zXF7b7rl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/KlaYjyTl.png

    I felt so refreshed after taking my shower in the waterfall. I just wished that Donny was here with me so that we could splash each other afterwards and feed the frogs living there in the water.
    https://i.imgur.com/sqq8Zzvl.png

    I then headed off to the volcano but before I did, I snapped a picture of the house at the bottom of the volcano and sent Donny a picture of it as he had told me that he heard that there was a house located at the bottom of the hill and he wanted me to take a picture of it for him.
    https://i.imgur.com/k0EHTfAl.png

    Then I went swimming afterwards as well as some snorkeling but this time is was in one of the shallow areas so I don't get grabbed and dragged around again as that scared the you know what out of me.
    https://i.imgur.com/eOcqxPTl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/52LBtOUl.png

    Then I headed back to the shoreline to do some fishing before heading back to the house to get me something to eat and to get ready for my Kava party.
    https://i.imgur.com/YrKBUc0l.png
    https://i.imgur.com/IdY0czkl.png

  • My Life in Sulani: Week 2, Pt. 5

    So everyone started showing up to my Kava party after I had cleaned up my dirty dishes. Everyone made themselves at home as they had found someplace to sit down or stand up at to chat with everyone.
    https://i.imgur.com/woEiyMcl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/6g4nOVGl.png

    I had fixed Kava for everyone to drink and then even grabbed food to eat while there. As I was preparing more food, one of my guests gave me a hand washing dishes up so that I don't have to worry about doing them later.
    https://i.imgur.com/9aLKi8nl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/Pj9UwAMl.png

    Some of the guests had grabbed themselves a plate of food while I made up some more Kava as everyone had finished up the first pot of it. I guess I must had fixed it right as no one complained about the taste of it.
    https://i.imgur.com/pXsO7Xyl.png

    I then made a toast thanking everyone for coming and that I'm so glad that I got to meet each and everyone of them. I also told them that I won't forget them when I go home and that I will keep in contact with them as well as trying to return back to Sulani.
    https://i.imgur.com/fXhkOcfl.png

    The Kava party was such a great hit that everyone told me so.
    https://i.imgur.com/odsZ5HAl.jpg

    After the toast was all made and they had expressed what a good time they all had, then all then said their goodnights and left for the evening.
    https://i.imgur.com/QC70u5el.png

    I then cleaned up what little bit of dirty dishes that was left behind which wasn't very much and then took some pictures of some of the things that I had collected as I had to get them ready to be turned into the local museum before I leave to go home.
    https://i.imgur.com/D4iEWOjl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/oIu3079l.png
    https://i.imgur.com/19wTqXel.png

    But then I was getting tired and headed to bed.
    https://i.imgur.com/0ZpP9Cql.png

    I got up and had me some breakfast before taking more pictures of the items that I had collected. Oh how I wish that I could keep everything that I had collected during my time here on the island.
    https://i.imgur.com/wti4Txml.png
    https://i.imgur.com/UTNymnbl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/IUqEAEpl.png

    But then the sink in the bathroom started to leak as it was leaking out into the kitchen, so I mopped up the puddle before going in and fixing the sink as I don't want to leave anything broken in the house when I get ready to leave.
    https://i.imgur.com/GNrKXkKl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/mBfDYAVl.png

    But then I got a phone call from the travel agency telling me that they had decided to sell the beach house and so they gave me a chance to buy it from them before putting out "For Sale" ads on it. So of course I told them that I would buy it from them which means that everything that I had collected could stay with me if I wanted them instead of donating them to the local museum... :smiley: I was so happy that I had to break out in a happy dance.
    https://i.imgur.com/dKqCj8dl.png

    I then went outside to do some more swimming since I didn't need to start packing up to leave since this is my new house. I still have my house in Oasis Springs that I will go to every once in a while. I then got on my deck and dove into the water below. And then did some nude sunbathing out on the floatie.

  • My Life in Sulani: Week 2, Pt. 6

    After floating around on my lounger, I did some skinny dipping. I just hope that I don't scare the fishes or dolphins off... :blush:
    https://i.imgur.com/pc3Xci2l.png

    Then I went back to the house as I had heard someone calling my name and so when I answered the door, I had company. I guess they all heard that I was going to be staying there now that I have brought the house.
    https://i.imgur.com/1ZUnDBbl.png

    They were all happy that I had decided to buy the house and stay there instead of going back to Oasis Springs, but I did tell them that I still own that house in OS and that I will be traveling back and forth on some occasions but that Sulani will now be my main home.
    https://i.imgur.com/YFgYKgGl.png

    So after everyone congratulated me on my new house, I had invited everyone inside and to make themselves at home. Some took to jumping off of my deck for a quick swim while others came inside and grabbed a bite to eat and to have a nice conversation about everything under the sun.
    https://i.imgur.com/Mu9QKYTl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/ApIFwLUl.png

    Everyone stayed for quite a while just chatting and eating good food with good friends. But everyone left, I had to fix my speaker as it went on the fritz.
    https://i.imgur.com/ADv2duOl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/1TPfIfvl.png

    After fixing my speaker, then I had to clean up the dishes and the trash that got used when I had visitors there.
    https://i.imgur.com/8iHrMoUl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/7k9anOel.png

    I then decided to do some nighttime/early morning diving even though I was a little bit tired after having guests over. But once I had gotten into the water, the tiredness went away as the water was cold at that time in the night/early morning.
    https://i.imgur.com/BCaR5xrl.png

    I then swam around the buoy for a little bit before going home and grabbing me some breakfast.
    https://i.imgur.com/GjtYkBll.png
    https://i.imgur.com/o4iPcitl.png

    I was feeling so happy about my decision on buying the house and staying in Sulani that I didn't hear the sink in the bathroom leaking until I had to go in there to use the bathroom. I really need to upgrade my things in the house so that they don't on a daily basis.
    https://i.imgur.com/sE4sGYul.png
    https://i.imgur.com/7iuKrHrl.png

    While I was cleaning up the bathroom, I had heard a knock on my door, so I asked who it was and it was Eliza Pancakes so I told her that the door was unlocked. So after washing my hands, I had came out to say Hi to Eliza. She too had heard that I had brought that house and was happy for me as well.
    https://i.imgur.com/H9mVKOOl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/3QrGzuXl.png

    But while Eliza and I was talking, the toilet sprung a leak as well so I went to fix it while Eliza watched me and told me how nice it is to be able to fix my own stuff in the house without having to call someone to come and fix things up for me. She told me that's what she has to do as Bob is a slob and she's a neat freak and she can't stand it when Bob can't fix or clean up after himself. He's interest are being a chef and video-gaming even though he doesn't have a lot of skill points in video-gaming. She told me that if I ever get my self a man that I should make sure that he's handy and is willing to do anything for me and not some slob like Bob is.
    https://i.imgur.com/g2Cz6SYl.png

    She then went out back and jumped into the water while I stayed inside to mop up the water puddles in the bathroom as I didn't want to water to damage the floors.
    https://i.imgur.com/MaSKRRyl.png
    https://i.imgur.com/hnP4hpLl.png

    Eliza decided that after swimming around for a little bit to sit in the water lounger while I took myself a quick shower using the In or Out? Outdoor shower... OOPS... :blush:
