I managed to secure a job at one of the local film studios. I was a background extra, it wasn't a glamorous title or even high paying, but it was a job that got my foot in the door. Being new in town I wanted to do something I never did back home, make friends. I no longer wanted to lead a life of seclusion like I did with mom. Plus I was going to be a star, so that meant my name and face were going to be out in the public eye anyway. After all this time, I doubted my 'father' was even still searching for me so mom would be safe. I tried to figure out the best place to meet new people, in a town where looks mattered, I thought the gym would be a good choice. I had to be in shape if I wanted to be in showbiz right? Once I got there I met some friendly people.
One chick named Stella Striker who had just moved here because her husband was traded to the city's sports team. For someone who had a famous husband, she was surprisingly friendly. We exchanged numbers and decided to hang out sometimes. I also ran into one of my co-workers Devin Ashton. Man! He's hot.
I only hoped I wasn't drooling too much staring at his bare chest as he talked to me. He asked if I wanted to go hang out at Eugi's if I didn't have other plans. He said a few of the other low level workers like us hung out there from time to time. I'd never been to a bar and I wouldn't dare turn down a hot guy so I was all up for it. It wasn't much of a place, it sat in the basement of one of the high rises, but it was nice to hang out with people.
We ran into Tiara Angelista and she was pretty friendly to me, but I saw she really had her eye on Devin. I left those two flirting and headed home. Things were going smoothly for me at work but one day my boss Reuben stopped me as I was leaving. He said he could get me a better job if I was willing to 'work' a little harder. I had heard of these things happening but I never thought I'd encounter it.
I rejected his advances and then worried he would hold it against me later. I talked to mom often. She was doing well in the city, her painting were selling and her garden was thriving. Living on my own was going well, other than paying the bills.
I didn't like that, but it was a part of life I couldn't get out of sadly. I was making friends and enjoying my job. This move to Bridgeport was working out well so far. I even got a promotion despite rejecting Reuben's advances. I invited Devin over to celebrate and boy was it a celebration!
**So Ansley is now a 2 star celebrity. I haven't played with the celebrity thing turned on in forever! I forgot how annoying it can be to have to impress celebrities to help up her star status. She is currently level 2 in the film career: Best Girl.**
Bonus shot
Normally I play with the rotating lunar cycles off because I hate the green glow it gives. I had it on for some reason and poor Devin was bitten by a zombie while they were at Eugi's.
Work a little 'harder'. Uh huh. Yeah. Glad she saw that for what it really was. I was like 'she's gonna make her sim a porn star?' hehe. I guess not on this blog. :)
ReplyDeleteWhoa! Hello Devin! I hope they used protection.
hahaha nope no porn star. Although there is a mod....no just kidding. LOL
DeleteYes hello Devin, we will see more of him ;) and maybe they did. Who keeps up with those things?
Looks like she is learning about how things work in Bridgeport...with Reuben wanting her to 'Work' :O she should blackmail him! That's what Aeon would do! Looks like she found a love interest though in Devin!
ReplyDeleteLOL she's learning something in Bridgeport She should have blackmailed him, but she was still new at that point. She has found an interest of some sort in Devin. We'll see how long that lasts.
Deleteways to advance your career..... she should have slapped that guy!
ReplyDeleteI hope Devin isn't a flirty lady killer! In more ways than one. ;)
LOL that was her boss at the time trying to 'help' her career. Devin is a bit of a flirt and I can only handle one lady killer ;)
DeleteHonestly, having to impress celebrities was not my main problem with the celebrity system :D
ReplyDeleteI'm glad she was smart enough to know what her boss meant and turned him down. The big city can be very overwhelming when you've grown up in a small place, but it looks like she's settled in well :)
I get so annoyed with the impress celebrity thing and the stupid paparazzi. Such a pain to deal with.
DeleteYeah she turned down her boss. She may be a small town girl, but she hated every minute of it. The big city is more her vibe and she's settling in well.
