Maria managed to secure three dates. The first...


...left her for another girl halfway through.

The second...

...ditched her for a free cheese sample.

The third....

Well, that one wasn't so bad. Maria enjoyed the conversation, and he wasn't too bad-looking. She had a soft spot for him, but it wasn't really anything like described.

Anytime it started to get interesting...well, see for yourself.


Meanwhile, her culinary job. She was getting better, having been promoted.

Maria swallowed and took a deep breath as she mixed the sauce. What was she meant to do again? She had to give to dish to someone...to...um...


Um...give it to...oops.

No point letting it go to waste, she thought.

The next day, while relaxing by the pool in her new “Natural is Best” bikini, Maria decided to read the next step.



She removed her sunnies and opened the book.

4. thou shalt live like a peasant by finding your “true love” and marrying them not for MONEY but because you LOVE them. Children optional, highly recommended.



Maria gasped and closed the book, rising to her feet. This would be the hardest one of all. Well, she’d always liked children. But love? She didn’t know what love was. She had spent her years alone, pining for-




Maria slipped and fell into the pool.

She got out and changed into her SWIMMING bikini, and got back in.



She decided she would take a taxi downtown and look for suitable candidates.

LOL so funny...luv it.

About pictures - maybe your quality settings on sims take crap pics? Your angles need work, try more actual close-ups of faces, you know, instead of just faraway pics of stick figures.

That's all. I hope you update soon.

Braces are a breeze. Really. The spacers hurt a bit, but just take a painkiller if it really bothers you.
Getting the braces on is not painful but uncomfortable. For a few days after that they will feel weird, but if you find they cut into your mouth, like mine did, I was able to put this wax stuff on which helped.
   After that, it's easy. Don't be self-concious about them, people barely notice them. It can be annoying when food gets stuck in them (and VERY embarassing) but that's why i carry a toothbrush around when I was going out. (locked in a case where no one can see)
Really, they're no big deal. And your teeth will look gorgeous after.

Phew, I thought it was over! I can't wait.

caffeinated.joy, I love your sim. I am so bad at poses and making sim's faces... He's really...what's the word...

Oh great! I was worried.

Yup, there sure is. Thanks for commenting!

She promptly found a job as a humble dishwasher.



Maria knew she would have to gain experience to amaze the chef who was interviewing her.


She prepared some humble Mac and Cheese, and left it on the stove to see how her meal could fend for itself.

Well, what else would she have meant?

The pot set on fire and passed the test - for if you are lost in a desert/jungle e.t.c, the first thing you should do is light a fire, right?



SHe was ready. So she made her way to the office. The chef was a charming young man in his twenties.

"Well Maria, in order to see your culinary ability, I shall ask you a simple question. What happens to food when it burns?"



Maria summoned up all her cooking knowledge. Burnt food...was....was


"Um.......it is then burned?"


The chef clapped his hands and laughed. "You are truly knowledgeable. You are hired!"

OK...our story starts a few years back...




Once upon a time, the royal Imperial family's beautiful daughter, Maria, decided she wanted to live the life of a peasant to better understand her people. So she ran away in the dead of night to start a life as a poor working-class...person.



Maria realised that in order to fit in she would have to dress, work, live and act like a peasant. So she bought the famous book
"Howe Too Bi Poowur" by famous literaturist Kanye West.
The book was devided into sections, the first step was

1. Thou shalt live like a peasant, by aquiring a simple house.


Maria bought a humble shack by the suburbs and in a few days, it was ready for her to move in.



Having acquired her humble shack, she read the next step.

2. Thou shalt live like a peasant, by acquiring simple clothes and an everyday hairstyle.

Maria promptly changed her Imperial clothes for a humble working-class dress dress, and swapped her tiara for an simple style.



However, the newspaper boy didn't seem to approve. (dunno what the hell he was doing)



Maria changed her style, and found something more appropiate. However, her stalker was only able to get a picture of her while playing th guitar.



Maria read the third step.

3. Thou shalt live like a peasant, by getting a disgusting and low-wage job, in which you must get up in the early hours of the morning, bleary-eyed, switch on your coffee machine and drink your coffee, before you realise it is dishwater. Then you must race to your car and be late.

Well done! I sense love coming up..

Congratulations! You could survive for 1 minute, 47 seconds! Record, oh yeah. And I'm only 12... I wonder what that says about me (violent biatch)

Thanks, caffeinated.joy, I've got it sorted out now. Thanks.

Engram...sorry for being dumb...um, what is the OP? Sorry. T~T

:O I sense evil scientist.
