Chapter 56 Generation Six : Orange

 Generation Six: Orange

You’re the black sheep of your family (but with orange hair) and you were raised in a hectic household. You’ve always wanted to cause mayhem, but you’re just really bad at being evil. You enjoy breaking into your neighbors’ houses and eating their food. You really love baking and spend the majority of your spare time eating sweets.

Traits: Evil, Self-Assured, Glutton
Aspiration: Public Enemy
Career: Criminal

Rules

  • Master baking and charisma skills
  • Master criminal career and complete Public Enemy aspiration
  • Must live in a ‘needs TLC’ apartment for entire young adult life
  • Have twins, but only those two children (you may cheat for this)
  • Insist on being evil (claim to be criminal mastermind) but nobody believes you, not even your own children

Chapter 55 Two Birthdays and A new Job

 

Excuse me while I do a happy dance as my daughter Cinny ages up! She's an infant now already!

Chapter 54 Married Again and Cinny is Born

 

I'm sure it's not a surprise to anyone that Levi and I are getting married again. I think we've both grown a lot during the time of our separation and divorce. With our baby ready to be born soon, we decided not to wait and had a small private ceremony.

Chapter 53 A Birthday, A Pregnancy, Back Together

 

Today is Levi's birthday. Though we are divorced, we continue to talk and are still very much in touch. I know his relationship with his dad is dreadful and I didn't want him to spend his birthday alone. I decided to bake a cake for him and invite him to my apartment. I am living in San Myshuno, at least for now. It's a far cry from my dream home but the move and even the divorce has been a good decision for me personally.

Chapter 52 Doctor Violet Berri and A Breakup

 


Hello everyone. Doctor Violet Berri here! You have no idea how long I have waited to be able to say that!

Chapter 51 A Graduation, A Wedding and A Death

 

Today is graduation day! It seems so long ago that I began university and now this part of my life is finally over. I'm really looking forward to moving on to becoming a doctor and leaving all the books and studying behind.

Chapter 50 Moving In and Completing University

 

I'll begin this chapter on a very positive note. I graduated last term with all A's and have already begun my last term. Once completed, I can graduate and become a doctor. 

I finally had the chance to visit Levi at his apartment in San Myshuno. I met his dad. He seems friendly enough. From what Levi has told me though they are not very close.

Chapter 49 Acing University and An Engagement

 


Hi all. Violet here. I decided to cut my hair shorter. Do you like it? I am hoping it makes me look a little older and not like I am still in high school.

Chapter 48 Full Time Student and First Kiss

 

Hi again. Violet here. So, I am a full-time student at Foxbury University. I'm taking 12 credits which was the max I could take. I'm keeping super busy as you can imagine. Breanne visited and I was so glad. I really needed a break. My social life has been taking a hit lately.

Chapter 47 Updates

 

Rowen Berri has aged up to a teen. She is Ashley's youngest sister. 

Chapter 46 Aging Up and University Acceptance

 

Hello again and welcome to my life. Violet here. Mom kept encouraging me to go to the Romance Festival and look for the dragon fruits to harvest. I did...and I did! I was able to find 3 of them and will plant them in the planter Caleb gave me. I don't want a big garden like mom had, but anything that will help pay the bills and for my schooling is welcome.

Chapter 45 Moving, First Holiday & Birthdays

 

So now begins my story. I am Violet Berri. Generation 5 of the Not So Berry Challenge. I have a lot to accomplish during my time here. I am a high school student, an A student as well! I work at a fast-food restaurant but it's only part time. My immediate goal is to finish high school and then to go to university. I want to be a doctor!

Chapter 44 First Four Generations

 

The first four generations of this challenge.

Cedrina Berri - Scientist  Mint

Rosalie Berri - Politician  Rose

Amber Berri - Astronaut  Yellow

Ashley Berri - Athlete  Grey

Chapter 43 Generation 5 Plum

 Generation Five: Plum

You’ve always been good at anything you tried. It’s hard to choose a career, so why not try a few? You work as a doctor for much of your life, but as an adult realize that your true dream is to become a professional dancer. You quit your job and join the entertainer career. Basically: you’re an indecisive oddball.

Traits: Genius, Noncommittal, Dance Machine
Aspiration: Renaissance Sim
Career: Fast Food, Doctor, Entertainer

Rules

  • Master dance and two other skills of your choosing, achieve at least level eight in six skills
  • Complete Renaissance Sim aspiration
  • Get divorced and then later remarried to the same Sim
  • Must live in at least three different worlds over the course of your life

Chapter 42 An Elder, An Adult and A Toddler

 

Violet is already showing a lot of responsibility. She does her homework without being asked. She began her high school years as an A student and wants to keep that up. Her goal is to become a doctor. I support it if that's what she wants, but I did tell her she will need to keep working hard. She also got a job in fast food just for the experience. So, she is a busy girl.

Chapter 41 Birthdays, Pregnancies and Deaths

 

Mom called to let me know my latest sibling had been born finally. I was excited to meet her. Yes, another girl. How Ronnie ever made it past all the girl chromosomes I don't know. This family loves having the girls!

Chapter 40 A Story, a Wedding and a Double Abduction

 


Just look at me being a good parent and reading to my children. I am really enjoying this part of my life and my little family. There is one thing missing though. Yeah, a dad and husband. Oh, I don't need someone else. I can do it all on my own which I think I have already proven. But I want someone special in my life. I want a father figure for my children.

Chapter 39 Winterfest and Maybe Something Else

 


I have been working hard on my parenting skills lately. Fortunately for me, both Baborka and Tyrian are giving me plenty of experience. (Sorry...the names are killing me but I'm sticking with them! Who wouldn't love a Baborka Berri??)

Chapter 38 Four Birthdays and a Death

 

We'll begin this chapter with a very sneaky Violet. She has made her way out the door, down the steps and to the garden. I think she is very proud of herself for doing this. No worries, I was watching her the entire time.

Chapter 37 A Death and a Big Surprise

 

I want to begin this chapter with a picture of my dad. Leo has aged up to an elder already!

Chapter 36 Some Failures Some Accomplishments

 

What better way to begin this post than to show my adorable little daughter Violet. She is already a toddler and growing up so fast.

Chapter 35 Violet Is Born and A Final Attempt

 

I have made some big changes in my life over the past few months. As you know, Darryl and I are expecting a baby! We've been spending a lot more time together and have discussed living together. I realize this is a big step, but I would love our child to be born in a home that is more intact. While I have some reservations, I think we are making a good decision for our family to be together.

Chapter 34 So This Happened

 

Hi all. Ashley here. I've begun my dream career to become a professional athlete but was not quite expecting this. I can hardly wait to get promoted so I no longer have to wear this mascot uniform. I also really want to max out my singing skill too and will be working hard to get that done as well.

Chapter 33 Ashley Young Adult New Job

 

Taking a daily afternoon jog after school has really helped to clear my head. My birthday is almost here and this part of my life is winding down. I better enjoy it while I still can. School is going great and I'm looking forward to my life as a young adult. Getting a job. Finding love. Having children. I want all of that. 

When I look back on my past two failed relationships with Darryl and Alberto, I see where my faults lie. I also realize it was all normal teen stuff we all go through. Oh, I learned from it, but I'm not beating myself up over it either. 

Moving on.

Chapter 32 A Death A Breakup and Another Breakup

 

I'm beginning this chapter on a sad note. Roger has died. (The game sort of got glitched for some reason and kept repeating that he had died, so I had to enter the family home for it to actually happen.) His wife Christy is an elder, and Kali has aged up to a young adult.

Chapter 31 Can I Have Both

 I want to begin by posting pictures of Roger and Christy Berri's children. Both Roger and Christy are elders now so there will be no more children added to this family.

Serenity Delgoto. Serenity is Roger's stepdaughter.

Chapter 30 A New Brother and Another First Kiss

 

Hi again. Ashley here. So one of the skill I've been working on lately is my cooking skill. I am getting pretty good at it and even feel comfortable using the stove and oven these days.

Chapter 29 Ashley Has a Boyfriend

 

Hello again. Ashley here. My little garden is growing pretty well. It has turned out to be more work than I thought it would be. Let's hope I can make the rent money from the plants I grow.

Chapter 28 Octoberfest

 

Ashley here. Generation 5 of the Not So Berry Challenge. 

If you hadn't guessed by now, I love playing basketball. Sometimes it just isn't my day however!
