Hi all! So, this will be my third Challenge attempt, with my previous two not actually going anywhere, as no one seemed interested. However, after some thought, i feel that this one could be big, if enough people join in. :D
So, here we go:
This one is called, "A Storybook of Memories". The basic premise is to make a sim family, and follow the life of the child, from birth, to death, however that may be, taking pictures at all of the major points in life, with whatever you feel is important.
You can do this with any type of sims 3+expansions you want. Not having one will only subtract a little from the experience.
Things you will need to do this challenge:
A understanding of how the sims work.
That's it! Really simple, i know. :D
As you take pictures of your sims life, edit your below post with the picture, and a caption, se we know what it is, and what's happening.
----------------------Challenge Details---------------------
Part 1. - Conception, and bringing a new life into the world.
You will first want to start out with a mother, and a father. Get them to woohoo, and get pregnant. After the time is up, and have the child, your already on your way to memories to last a lifetime. :D If twins, or triplets, ect ect, you must select ONE!! child to follow.
During this time period, you are going to want to take pictures of atleast these events:
1. Conception.
2. The mother going through each stage of the pregnancy, with the camera focused on on her.
3. The "water breaking".
4. The hospital.
5. Coming home with the child.
6. The childs living arrangements.
-----------------------------
Part 2 - Growing up.
After that little bit, and your baby becomes a toddler, it's time for some really cute pictures! Your going to want pictures of atleast these events:
1. Playing with a toy of some sort.
2. Baby babble.
3. Learning to walk.
4. Learning to talk.
5. Learning to use the toilet.
6. Playing with another child, whether it be of the family, or a friend.
7. Feeding time.
8. Birthday cake!!
---------------------------------------
Part 3 - Learning of the world.
In this part, your chosen person is officially a child! School, homework, rising a bike, spending time with friends! All of these are moments in your sims life that your not going to want to miss out on.
You are going to want to get pictures of atleast these events:
1. First day of school.
2. Making friends.
3. Playing at the park/junglegym/local pool, with friends.
4. Sleepover?(These happen, right? As a child you can have other kids stay over, right?)
5. Family time.
6. first argument with a friend.
7. Getting a good, or really bad grade!
8. Getting help with homework!
9. Birthday!
Part 4 - A glimpse of freedom.
Your Chosen one, is now a Teen. Life is getting more complicated, but more fun as well! Your going to want to get pictures of atleast these events:
1. First day of school Pt. 2.
2. First kiss.
3. First boyfriend/girlfriend.
4. First car! (If you have the money...)
5. Sneaking out of the house.
6. First breakup(If it happens. Up to you.)
7. First love.
8. Getting good/bad grade.
9. First drink of necter/drink at mixologist(If in bridgeport. What else would you have snuck out for? :D )
10. Hanging out with friends.
11. First fight(If it happens).
12. Getting a part-time job. (Must happen, sorry).
13. Birthday!
Part 5 - And everything in between!
At this point, i think you all can see pretty easily what kind of pictures work, and stuff, right? Well, from here, you are free to take pictures of whatever you want to. But, as your making a picture book, more pictures, = more fun. :D
------------------------------------
Final thoughts:
During any age period, you are free to take pictures of whatever, as long as it pertains to your chosen sims.
The parents: You can do whatever you wish with them. It's a good idea to just leave them alone, with mid-level jobs, so you can work on your chosen sim. That way you don't miss anything.
Cheats: Don't do it. Life is full of happiness, and tragedy, if something bad happens, snap a picture, and move on.
-------------Bonus points!------------
These pictures will get you a bonus points. There aren't really any points in this, but, you know what i mean.
Infidelity: Getting caught cheating, or catching your spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend cheating is ALWAYS worth a great picture. The anger, the sadness, the tragedy. Each picture would be filled with emotion!
Death: Whether it be in the family, or just a random sim, snap a picture!
Paranormal: Ghost, vampire, mummy? Take a picture of meeting one!
Sad things: If a sim is crying, you should be taking a picture. Even if it is nothing but a plant dieing. DO IT!
And finally, something i think would be fun, but, if you can get a piture of your sim hugging the reaper, that would be cool, i think. :D
--------------Closing-------------
If you are going to take this challenge, then please reserve your spot below, so i can see how many are interested. You may post it all as one big thing, or you can do it in parts, either or. Just, and this IS IMPORTANT! Edit your previous post. Don't make multiple ones. Thank you in advance.
