Bio
"Why this deep sorrow when necessity speaks- can our love endure except through sacrifices, through not demanding everything from one another; can you change the fact that you are not wholly mine, I not wholly thine."

-Ludwig Van Beethoven, Letters to the Immortal Beloved


Hi! My name is Vanessa, but you can call me Van if you like. My screen name, by the way, is pronounced El Squirgle-O. Yeah, it is totally random and has no meaning at all to me. I live in New York, am currently 20 years old and I'm attending Suffolk Community College, majoring in vocal performance. I also volunteer at New Lane Elementary School's aftercare program.

I also run a small shop called Phunky Junk N' Jewels, where I sell my handmade jewelry. You can find examples of my work at my website.

But enough about me... This is not your typical journal! That's right, this is my SIMS journal! I am the author of the Sims 2 legacy-turned-story called Immortal Beloved, and am a moderator of a little sims community called Pixel_Trade. You might also find some rants about craft fairs and pictures of my jewelry on here, but I will try and keep those down to a minimum.

I am also High Priestess of the Cult of Frances, one of the fastest growing sim communities on LJ- dedicated to Frances J. Worthington III and his snobby rich kid ways.



Immortal beloved is set in Strangetown, and originally started as a legacy with my selfsim as the founder. It then grew to include her friends in the story, and later on her children and their friends. Also unlike other legacies, there is a twist involved. In order to become heir, the offspring that have potential must score with Ripp Grunt.



He will remain immortal in an awesome bachelor pad until the first child of Generation 10 is finally born.
So let's see who we're dealing with currently, shall we?


The legacy family consists of:
Van (SelfSim), Lydia, Olivia (Eldest), Blair (Van took his last name) and Julia.


Besides them, we have...

With Tank (Formerly Grunt), Stella, Marina (Eldest), and Bunker.


With Vidcund, Dill & Gherkin (Vid's Twins), Lazlo, Pascal, and Maxis (Pascal's son).

AND


With Alvin, Guy, Sterling (a boy!), and Frances (Formerly Worthington).

I hope you enjoy reading and if you'd like to follow along, feel free to befriend me!



Favorite Sims Story Quotes:

“Well, those three sitting there are Johnny, Ripp, and Ophelia. Johnny's the green one, Ophelia's the pretty one, and Ripp is the one that looks like he might ask you for some change on the street corner.”
-Tank Grunt, from Strange_Tomato’s Christmas Special.

"Errr, yeah... come inside. Come in, I mean. Come with me... Enter - Enter the house."
-Frances J. Worthington III (From Strangetown, Here We Come: Chapter 23)

"Grunting, huh? That's what us Grunts do best."
-Ripp Grunt: Strangetown, Here We Come: Chapter 25, part 1

"Beau: Don't tell me I'm actually gayer than you are?
Frances: I didn't realize that this was a competition."
-Strangetown, Here We Come: Chapter 26, part 2

“I was going to make this big production of proposing. Candles... roses... dinner... the whole nine fucking yards. But here I am in my underwear, probably smelling of spit up milk and baby shit, and I’m proposing anyway."
-Ripp Grunt Poison's Bend, Chapter 9

"It looks like a giant dildo."
-Kevin Standish, talking about the sock hippo in the IKEA Stuff Pack in this outtakes post of the Standish Legacy.

“Don’t blame me for your. . . plumbing issues.”
-Albert to Pascal in Madame_Ugly’s entry to Storytellers Challenge #4

"AGAMEMNON POLLINATOR! Have you been sans underwear all evening?!" -Paul Tech, Peculiar: An Affair to Remember: Part 3 (Section 2)

"Bridges: Relax, Lil! I've got everything figured out! I'm a pirate, remember?
Lily: You are an ex-hacker, Salomon. You surf the Internet, not the seven seas, remember?
Bridges: Pffft! It's the same thing!"
-Tim Broke (As Bridges) and Jan Tellerman (As Lily) in the trailer for ARR! The Search of The Hidden Booty.


There are obviously so many more, so expect this little section to change frequently! :)
