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 played a lot yesterday and wrote up and saved a lot of separate update posts so I could continue to post this week though I'm going to try not to be actively playing very much since I honestly have such a busy week. Challenges are fun, but real life has to come first. There's some exciting things coming up for Jules :)
Ages ago when I got Romantic Garden, I put a pre-made lot into Willow Creek from that pack - The Lost Gardens of Healing. That's where Jules headed off to today. https://i.imgur.com/iePILbe.jpg
She filled up her fun need by having a romp around in the fountain, which she of course filled with bubbles https://i.imgur.com/gjNG3LU.jpg
Then, she went to make a wish at the Whispering Wishing Well. She wished for simoleons, and I didn't expect much to happen, but the well emptied out all it's contents into Jules' wallet, giving her about 6000 extra simoleons! https://i.imgur.com/C0ytImE.jpg
What a lucky win! I immediately went back to her lot to build her a house. I like the idea suggested by @Ellupelluellu of building each tier of a tiny home as she ages up through life, so in case I want to commit to that, I built her a tier 1 home, which gives a lot of nice lot perks. Here is her humble home: https://i.imgur.com/Dl2C8na.png https://i.imgur.com/gwH8MDu.png https://i.imgur.com/oahGzyj.png https://i.imgur.com/c8hh8mM.png
I will add more decor as she earns more money and perhaps even creates her own wall art since I gave her an easel.
Her social need was getting really low, so I called forth the ghost of Reed Edison, the moody alien ghost she keeps in her inventory. He did help with her social need, but he also possessed her toilet and broke it, and stole all of her harvestables, so I do not recommend this socialization trick. He is going back in her inventory for a long timeout once he returns to his urn. (At least he did help mop up his mess) https://i.imgur.com/VvoSTFy.png
Jules hung out with her cousin Bex for a bit, but her hot headed trait (and probably that annoying alien ghost) had her in a foul mood. https://i.imgur.com/3LbUZrJ.png
Finally, she visited The Blue Velvet nightclub and started building a new skill and even earned a few tips. She also completed the second part of her fishing aspiration earlier in the day. She bought the waterproof trait as well, since she was getting into a bad mood all the time getting wet in the rain. It's been a rainy spring and I need her to be outside despite the weather to fulfill her aspiration. https://i.imgur.com/pRpnYrM.png
Simoleon count: 165 (yep, she used almost all she had to build that house lol)
I need to get her some odd jobs for real next time I play so she can pay the bills on that cute new house. Also no further development with her potential beau, Mario, but I am keeping that relationship idea tucked away for future play.
