For Simgaroop... Helena the cheerleader

I've being meaning to ask you about this for a while, [livejournal.com profile] simgaroop. Is Helena a crazy party animal in your game? Is she really excitable? I ask because she never seems to stop cheering in my game. She'll do something and then she'll cheer immediately afterwards. Like, she'll walk up the stairs, stop, and then cheer. She's seriously high on life (and possible some other substances).

I took some pics. I thought you'd get a laugh out of it.










She's just happy to have entered the kitchen.




Helena: Wooooooooo!!! I totally ATE THAT!




Helena: A phone call for me? W00t!








Helena: I said W00000000000t!!!!




Helena: OMG it's my fridge! So excited!




Some dancing...






...leads to more cheering.






Helena: YESSSS!!!!





Helena: WOOOOOOOOO!!!! Go ME!

... and so on and so on.... It happens all the time.

I'm becoming a little concerned that she might be a cokehead. Maybe it's just coffee, but she'd have to be drinking a hell of a lot of it for it to have this effect. Or maybe she's just a really extreme gal. This is definitely shaping the way I'll be using her character in the story. Such a big personality needs to be utilized to the fullest.

I've never seen anything like it. It's quite cool. Is this happening because she's max active and playful? Was she like this in your game too?

Oh, and shout out to this awesome AL outfit conversion by javabean_dreams: Landlord Vests for the Un-Landlordy. It's one of my favourite Maxis outfits to date. It's not really Helena's usual sort of thing (it's more of a Frances thing), but I wanted to show it off anyway.

Wow that is one happy sim...

Hahahahaha, I've never seen a sim so...cheerful. She HAS to be on something.

Ooh, that outfit IS adorable. Thanks for telling us about it. Also, does Helena have a Kitchen and Bath Stuff hair? I really want that SP JUST for the hairstyles! (EAxis should have made a SP for hair. It would have been an awesome idea.)

Wooooooooooow. Someone's been hitting the bubble blower a bit too much along with the expresso machine. XD

LOLOLOL, she is REALLY EXCITABLE! isn't she?

YES YOU USED THE OUTFIT! I LOVE that outfit. I haven't found anyone to use it on yet, but I love it. :D

That's pretty funny. I think Helena must have met up with Dustin. ;)

What's her personality?

[identity profile] simgarooop.livejournal.com 2008-09-22 02:40 am (UTC)(link)

Oh my! She really is INSANELY cheerful in your game! :D She never did that in mine, though she was a a bit insane in a different way.

When she was a child, she used to spend hours and hours with the bubble blower (bought because Wanda rolled the want, but she never used it), laughing and "flying" to no end, until I sold the silly thing. She also loved her Daddy's "teleprompter" and spent a long time playing and burping on the mic (along with Timmy, those two are such slobs).

Maybe she's still high from those days!

She was also constantly jumping on puddles (and the bathrooms were a mess) and playing in the bathtub. As a teen, you could always find her doing one of these two things: Being a "pirate" or having sex with a random guy she brought from school. At college she had a LOT of fun with ACR (she was never faithful to Calvin :p).

LOL, those pics are hilarious! :D

YES, you told me where you got that outfit. You know I was going to ask. I'm DEFINITELY going to need to take a trip to MTS2 for some shopping (silentsteel just showed off a nightlife converted hair--that weird "asian" one with the funky braid and the little fan tied in it?--looked super cute on toddlers).

Helena cracked me up, too. Don't you love it when sims tell you how to write them? (maybe she's ADHD)

Helena is awesome! I was laughing and cheering right along with her as I read this.

I've never had this happen to a sim before and I've had the extreme personalites. Maybe it's a new feature added to AL? That would be cool if it was. Or maybe it's just Helena hitting the bubble too hard and too often. :P
