One Month One World One Year Personal Challenge (Complete!)
Have you ever admired those who start a New Year doing a one photo per day contest? I have, but I've never tried it. I had an idea pop into my head on New Years Eve for a challenge similar to those, ...
I also downloaded; Bryon, Sukura and @permanentrose's own version of Jules. But I see that @Skeilah made a version of her you may like better? Let me know which one you'd prefer I put in my game. :) I could not find a copy of Melody, River or Roxanne though, are they uploaded to the Gallery? I used the hashtag #onemonthoneworldoneyear just like the three I found had in their descriptions. I think it's a good one, so maybe y'all would like to use it too when/if you upload your Sims?
Love your Daily pic for Bryon Skeilah! It looks so peaceful. Very cool how he already met some 'new' friends, one of which 'gave' him the Rock Climbing skill book. He's on his way now to being a rock climbing Superstar! ;)
Another one of Tessa's aspiration goals in the last milestone, is to do a High Intensity run on an expert slope using a snowboard or skis, or climb a medium height rock climbing wall in inclement weather. I'm not sure what the game's definition is of inclement, but it was freezing outside. So I sent my little mountain goats to the walls that are practically right behind Tessa's house. Tessa is only Level 4 in snowboarding and hasn't tried skiing yet, so that's her only choice for that goal right now. Tessa is Level 7 on the cusp of Level 8 in rock climbing, another milestone goal. Plus, she climbs like a monkey just like Josh now! He usually leaps right up and keeps going like that at first, this time they both did. At one point, Josh even slipped and fell a few feet back to the ground while Tessa kept going and beat him to the top. On the way she was even hanging by just her fingertips, no feet! :o Unfortunately, I guess the weather wasn't considered inclement because the goal never was filled. She'll have to try again, maybe during a blizzard. Too bad that wasn't a part of the milestone when they climbed the mountain!
I discovered something too while they were there. Not only is there a Pear tree nearby, but at the top of those walls is a community garden with planters! (see pics in Extras) There's nothing in the planter boxes, but two plants; an onion and, well, I forget the other one, are in the ground near them and also three dig spots! \o/ Sadly, that little fact might've been more handy when Tessa was first starting out than now. But it's still nice to know! :)
On the way back to the house, I saw some forest spirits and had Tessa stop to make a wish. She got...nothing! What? Didn't know that could happen. Oh well... *shrugs* Tessa studied her Level 3 rock climbing skill book, while Josh made something to eat and then she went to bed. Josh played some video games, harvested the garden and read a Rocket Science skill book until he reached Level 9. I had him stop there because Tessa was getting up for school and she needed some social. Mr. Romantic flattered her again and got an 'Adoring' sentiment for her! :D He is so smitten with her. I bet he'd actually have that sentiment, Smitten, if it were possible. ;)
Tessa left for school, wearing the red uniform this time. I think it looks good on her too! I sent Josh to sing some Karaoke at the Honeypot since that's a skill he didn't have. He got to Level 3 while there before I sent him home when Tessa got home from school. Not much happened before Tessa went to bed, she did her homework, they played some console video games together and read skill books. Since Josh is already Level 10 in guitar and I know Sims can sing while playing, that's just what I had him do while Tessa snoozed. I have to laugh at that screenshot. I didn't notice at first, but there's somebody standing at the front door smiling! Looking closer I realized it's one of my NPC vampires I modified from a game generated townie! I guess he liked Josh's singing, eh? :D
