Oh boy, I am mutating to become a contest junkie. I like this one...but when I saw LouBarratt88 application I was scared off. This Sims are amazing and the pictures are great. So I am not sure whether I should join...I will sleep over it.

So wait Im a little confused on the picture requirements for the app. Do we need a headshot and bodyshot for each sim and then a shot of them together or a headshot bodyshot and freeshot for each sim then a freeshot together? Now I'm even more confused :P

Default PixCii's Application - Hugh and Rose
Name: Hugh Gallagher
Age: 24
Current Residence: Canberra, Australia



Well, I’ve never been one for modeling, though I have to say, I definitely have the face for it. Before I met Rosie, I was a bit of a player, but one conversation with her and I was willing to change everything for her. At the moment I work in a garage restoring old cars, and that’s what I do in my spare time when I’m not with Rosie. We first met two years ago, and at first it was just a friendship, but eventually we grew closer until how we are today, and neither of us could be happier!

Name: Rose Parkes
Age: 23
Current Residence: Canberra, Australia



Before I met Hugh I was never one for dating. I suppose it’s odd that I met him, one of the biggest players in town, and he was my first and last love experience. At the moment I work as a librarian in a primary school, and I’m loving every minute of it though I don’t know if I want kids of my own. When I’m not with Hugh or at school, I spend my spare time brushing up on history about my greatest interest, the Civil War, though most of my free time is with Hugh. We met at a party at a bar a couple of years ago, and have been pretty much inseparable ever since.

Default ktbcca- Application
"Male"
Name: Tay Cesal
Age: 27
Current Residence: Belladonna Cove

Headshot

Tay: "Yup, that's me up there...surprised? When my mother was nineteen she was abducted by aliens, not such a strange occurrence for where she resided. They plucked her right up from her back porch on her house in Strangetown. She came back pregnant with me, and nine months later there I was in her arms. She has told me that the night she was abducted was the craziest and scariest night of her life, but the outcome was remarkable and wonderful and she would do it all over again in a heartbeat. I know, makes your heart melt doesn't it?"

Bodyshot

Tay: "That's my Simsanto Inc. Biotech Station, I use it in my free time to just mess around with microbes. Growing up I was always drawn to science, so it was a no-brainer for me to get a degree in exobiology. That's technically, 'the search for the origin of life on the Earth, and in the Universe,' if you were wondering. After graduation, I went on to work for SASO (Sims Aeronautics and Space Organization) and ended up on the Universal Space Station, which is where I met my beautiful girlfriend, Brei."

Female
Name: Brei Wharton
Age: 26
Current Residence: Belladonna Cove

Headshot


Brei: "Hi! I'm Brei. Yes, like the cheese..." *sigh* "I grew up here in Belladonna Cove and honestly never thought I'd be back. I had a really rough childhood. My parents constantly fought, my dad would leave for days and come back wasted...On top of that I was the biggest geek in school and had zero friends. I suppose I wouldn't want to be friends with a plant obsessed girl who smells like potting soil either...but the past is the past and I've been really trying to let it all go. Oh my GOD, you don't want to hear all this, sorry!"

Bodyshot

Brei: "I'll get on with the story...It was always my dream to be a botanist, and after paying my way through college as a waitress, I finally fulfilled that dream and received my diploma. A few years after college I landed a job with SASO. They were searching for a way to keep astronauts fed in space for long periods of time. I was assigned to the task and sent to the Universal Space Station to do my research. It was an amazing process, what with the huge plant growth chambers and whatnot but I got something out of the assignment I really didn't expect, my girlfriend Tay."

Freeshot

Brei: "We arrived at the space station at practically the same time, and met during a mutual lunch break. Since our first meeting, if we weren't working, we were together. After spending almost eight months on the space station, our assignments led us back to earth where we took the relationship to the next level, and moved in together. We bought a small house in Belladonna cove and are slowly making it our own. Life has gotten a lot less hectic since we landed back on earth, and although we still have heavy workloads, we manage to squeeze in a lot more alone time. As you can see in the picture, we actually got to have a little picnic! Well, I might have enjoyed it a bit more than Tay..."

Tay: *ahem* "Oh no sweetie, it was great! Good times..." *cough*

Brei: *sigh* "Anyway, We are so thankful we get to be a part of this contest, we can't wait to find out what is in store for us next!"

I'm a bit confused over how much we are supposed to write for the application. When I wrote mine I went by the 4 sentence per picture rule, but now I'm wondering if I should shorten it a bit so I don't lose points for not keeping it under 10 sentences per sim...? Halp!

I am currently 'between jobs' but I have been fixing the odd car for people. I hope to support my family when it comes by opening my own garage. As you can see, I have many dreams. Half of which may never comes true. One already has. Cleo.

"Well, what can I say... I'm yellow. I guess you noticed that.
I'm the complete opposite to Lucas, but he understands me. When I met Lucas it was that 'clear-image-moments-when-every-thing-is-clear-and-you-feel-yourself-falling-in-love' sight that reached me. It has never left.
And I'm glad 'cause I never had much luck with guys. As a bartender I used to have loads of players and idiots around me all the time... You just get bored. I work at 'Grape', the local college bar as I study at the college during the day."

There I was in post-apocalyptic Pleasantville checking to see what my Self Sims were up to. No good, as usual . . . .

Deborah Johnson
24
Pleasantville

Body shot

"Oh, honey, I miss you so much. I wish you hadn't been so selfish. I wish you hadn't been bad to me. I wish it hadn't been so easy to forget about you and find someone else. I wish I wouldn't have gotten distracted by that letter about this contest and forgotten about you. Oh, honey, I've moved on and here you are right where I left you. Oops."

Head Shot

Hi there, reporters with a large telescope lens! I'm Deborah Johnson and I recently jumped out of the Sim Bin into Pleasantville and became "good" friends with my counterpart, Deborah Draiman. Hmmmm, we seem to look a lot alike. I wonder how that is. We think alike. We have a lot in common -- must be why it was so easy for us to hook up with one another. Before Deb and I became bosum buddies, I worked as a dj at a radio station and did modelling on the side over in Minneapolis. It was great fun. Any-hoo, I'm a 24-year-old hot blonde . . . "

"24?!!!! You're not 24!!! Ask anybody. They've seen you around here before and know your age lady!"

" . . . Well . . . I've been to the Sim Bin. You know that Fountain of Youth that knocks you back to the beginning of adulthood everytime you move. Yay for me. I'm all but a teeny-bopper once again.

"If you get to be 24 I get to be 29!"

"Oh! Deborah! Now, you made me forget what I was saying. Give me a minute people, I'll remember. I have a brain cramp."

"Brain? Brain! Gimme the brain. I'm hungry!"

"Uhhhh! I give up! Get down off that rock, quit playing around with Christ, drag your leg over here and tell these people about yourself!

And, before I forget -- I GET TO BE THE GIRL!!!!"

Deborah Draiman
29
Pleasantville

Body Shot

"Hmmmmmph. I am just seeing how tall he is. What else is there for a living dead girl to do when you don't want to have any fun til after dark? And then you get mad at me when I nibble on you. An undead girl gets hungry, you know. Let's sit down and talk, I want to pick your brain."

"Oh, I'm sure you want to pick my brain, all right. Get over here and sit in that chair so I can gaze upon your beauty from a distance."

"Okay, okay, I'm sitting, I'm sitting. I think they are starting to put Pleasantville back together. See all the green? It was so dark and bleak everywhere when I was off trying to be the best model in the world. Sometimes I remember back when I was just like you, Deborah."

Head Shot

"My name is Deborah Draiman. I used to have a happy home, friends, family . . . now, I have my friend Deborah. I'm 29 -- if she gets to be 24, I get to be 29 . . "

"Whatever."

"What's age to a hot blonde zombie girl anyway? Being Prom Queen is everything. I want to win so bad I can taste it. It even tastes kind of like a creamy white brain. Nummy.

I want to win this contest really bad. Badder than I want to eat brains. I don't want to be the first loser this time, I want to be the winner.

AND I GET TO BE THE GIRL!!!!"

"Hey! I said I get to be the girl!"

"I get to be the girl, you get to be the boy. I'm wearing a dress!"

"What????!!!! I'm wearing a dress, you brain-obsessed looney-toon beauty!"

(Rip, snap, crackle, pop. Tussle sounds.)

"Not anymore! You'll be dressed like a boy when I'm done with you, sugar plum!"


"LADIES!!! STOP!!! I'll be the boy!"

"Ohhhh! Pookie, you came back!!! I'm so happy now."

"Hey, who are you? Who is he, Deborah? What's he doing here?"

"I AM DD's boy friend. Not you. Now you just sashay your apple-bottom on down the road. Go find yourself one of those rock stars you so love."

"Huh! What are you doing looking at her bum?"

"You're the one that ripped her dress half off. What are you doing with her? I turn my back for -- what -- five hours and you're onto someone else? I'm your reason for living. You -- you -- go over there and meet those dregs of society I brought back here for you. I'm the King of your world. I'm . . . ."

JJ deClone
35
Pleasantville

Head Shot

"I'm JJ deClone and I'm a 35-year-old stunt double. You might think I look just like that whor -- I mean, womanizer -- Jackdaw Macadema, but I'm a far stretch from that poser and I'm sick of posing in his place. I've been all over Simland and like it best here in Pleasantville where I've spent the last few months with the undead love of my life, Deborah. We've been through thick and thin and we'll get through this latest muddle and win those crowns on Prom Night!"

Body Shot

"Ahhhh, I remember this night. It's the first time I looked up into your eyes and saw the hunger in them. Hunger for me. I knew you wanted me more than you ever wanted any other man in your life. Or death? I just knew from that moment on nothing was going to keep me from having you for my very own. You're my one and only queen and the world will know it come Prom Night."

Free Shot

"Are you going to shoot your cannon?"

"Just slide on down that cannon onto my lap you delicious living dead girl, you. Come here and show me you're mine."

(Ewwwwww. Don't look.)

"Oh, baby, watch those fingernails and teeth."

"I'm sorry, Pookie, it's just so hard sometimes."

Well . . . in case we can . . . my poor other self sim was straggling down the road looking over her shoulder to make sure she was holding her dress closed enough to hide her bum, not looking where she was going, so, of course, lo and behold, she ran smack dab into one of those countless rock stars cluttering up my neighborhood. They just don't seem to stay in the sim bin once they're put there, do they? It must've been love at first sight, first bolt of lightning, first toe stubbing.

Yep, happyasabunny, she's back. I'm here to have fun, she's here to win.

Hello my name Tyson, but you can just call me Ty for short; everyone else does. Hmm, what's there to say. Im 23. Um, I was born in Pleasantview, I moved to SimCity when I was 21, got a job and an apartment; and I've been living there ever since. I work as mechanic in a little garage in the heart of SimCity. After a bad breakup a few of my friends set me up on a date-- much to my disagreement, I might add-- And thats how I met Eliza. Turns out we had surprisingly a lot in common. That was three months ago. We've been dating for quite a while now, and just the other night while I was on a date with Eliza, the weirdest thing happened. We were asked to come join a contest for couples. Hearts Consume the Stars, they called it. Well, honestly I've never really liked modeling and such, but Eliza was so excited, so I'm going to do this for her. And, hey, mabye I'll like it.

Hi I'm Eliza. Im 21 years old. I was born on August 14th 1988 in Veronaville. I moved to SimCity just a year and a half ago. I work as a waitress at a small restaurant in the middle of SimCity called Roxxy's. I met Ty when my friend set me up on a blind date. When I first saw him, I was a little worried. The tatoos, and the hair, and the overall bad boy look were a little... offsetting. But after the first date, I realized how completely and utterly wrong I was. He turned out to be a really, sweet, funny guy. Then when we were on a date the other night, these people came up to us and said we had been asked to join a contest: Hearts Consume the Stars. I was really excited, I had always wanted to do something like this! Well Ty wasn't so thrilled; he's not really into the whole modeling thing, but he agreed to try and have fun. I'm so excited!

Name

Age

Current Residence
Rochester, Kent. England
Short biography
Please for my sanity call me Chris (I don't even react to Christopher anymore...), I'm 20 and I'm a car salesman working in my dad's dealership just outside Rochester, which specialize in vintage cars. I love my job and I'm pretty good at it. I'm a real people person *cough*as well as being really really ridiculously good looking*cough* which helps. Personality wise, I know I can be pretty dopey, some/all of the time. I'm one for taking chances and not thinking of the risks, sure its not always clever but hey you only liv once right?






Name
Alice Carmen
Age
20
Current Residence
Rochester, Kent. England
Short Biography
Hello. Please call me Allie. Currently I'm a history student at the moment (snore...) who does bookkeeping (double snore...) to keep a roof over my head. I/m hoping to become a teacher when I graduate. I'm pretty much hopelessly awkward 90% of the time, I seem to have no control of my limbs or the dumb things that come out of my mouth either which usually results in me doing something stupid. I was actually born in Hawaii (and now I'm in usually cold and boring Rochester *sigh*) and spent quite a bit of my early life traveling. If I could tear Chris away from his job I'd love to see even moe of the world.

Together
Despite not getting on amazingly when we first met, (Chris was too loud and full of himself, Allie was usually quiet and when she wasn't she was condescending) because Rochester is such a quiet, sleepy little old fashioned kind of town, most people our age flee as soon as they can to places more exciting so it was either learn to deal with each other or take up preteen or pensioner friends... Luckily once we got past our initial differences we found we quite liked each other and have been able to endure each other for the last 6 months.

Default Renn and Rebecca - Application
Rebecca Brojan

Born- June 27th 1989

Place of Residence- Redgrave Valley

Hello I'm Rebecca. To you, I probably look very strange and out of place but to my kind, I'm just a normal 19 year old girl. I just wish I was normal. You see, some months ago I fell for a great guy, really caring and protective. It's every girl's fantasy, including mine but it's not quite that simple. The thing is that I'm an elf, a dweller of the fields as we call it. My family is very proud of our heritage and they would be disgusted to learn that I'm in love with a human. It's tearing me apart. I don't want to leave my family- they may be old-fashioned and over-bearing but it would also mean leaving my home and frankly I don't belong in the human world. On the other hand, there's Renn. I love him more than anything and I know that he's the one, but the odds seem to be stacked against us and it's getting harder and harder to prove them wrong. We decided to go ahead with this competiton because we know it will make us stronger together. I've come to realise that one day I will have to tell my family about Renn and not let their opinions affect our happiness. We know that we belong together and now we're going to prove it to everyone.





Renn Carey

Born- 19th May 1987

Place of Residence - Redgrave City

So where do I begin? I'm just a 21 year old guy who met a beautiful girl and wants to spend the rest of his life with her right?
Well, that's it really, but things can't ever be that easy. Rebecca's family don't know about me. She says they would likely hurt me and have her exiled if they did. I couldn't care less if they hurt me. It's all worth it for my girl. The thing is that Rebecca isn't quite...human. She's terrified of not fitting in to our world, she says her family might not be supportive but they're Elfin like she is and that she belongs with them. Only she doesn't want to. I just wish I was the good guy that Rebecca thinks I am. The truth is that I'm a criminal, a burglar to be accurate. I'm not proud of it but it pays the bills and I don't have the qualifications to get a proper job. I can't let Rebecca know about it. That day that she found me, I was beaten, broken and half-dead from smoke inhalation but it stays in my mind as the best day of my life. I just want us to run away to together and start afresh. But we can't do that. We have to let the world know that we're together and proud of it. One day, all this stupid Romeo and Juliet business will be over and we will finally be a couple.
Somehow, we're going to make that happen.




One day, we will be together....
