Kirkendall: Esmond's Woes

I know I started writing in this blog from second person point of view, but it is kind of boring me. So, like in my other blog, I will be writing in the point of view of one household character for each houses round. First off will be Esmond here because Temperance, Darcy and Jaquan are too young.

So far the only member of this family I will tell the stats about is Esmond, cuz he is the only one old enough (I am only telling stats for adults, elders and teens, you'll find out about the kids when they grow up)


In pic: Esmond is the teen, Temperance the girl, Darcy and Jaquan are the toddlers, and the women in the background is their dead mother.

Esmond: knowledge, lifetime want is to become the chief of staff, Sagittarius, 2,3,9,7,4, turned on by glasses and black hair, turned off by red hair.

Esmond: Hello, my name is Esmond Kirkendall. I suppose this is gonna be a diary like thing of our house so I will talk to you just like you are my diary. Life sucks. That's a pretty pathetic way to start, but it is true! I have to raise three kids, all by myself. First things first, we moved into our shack and I opened a home business. I figured a piano, poker table and some gelatin could rake in some sort of cash.At first, only teens showed up, I got to meet some new people.At first I tried to take care of the kids by myself. Darcy learned how to say my name, though he pronounced it "Esmy". Ahem, anyway!I soon hired a nanny, and guess what she does. Instead of cleaning, she starts to gamble! (notice how in the pic there are two blond gamblers)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (3 blond gamblers in the backgound).Temperance is quite the piano player, and tends to entertain the customers (three different blond gamblers!)(note from the queen: awww, mamma j checks out her husband Sheldon! Back to the story...)I have been having nightmares about mum. You see, back at home we were poor, but happy. Temperance amused herself by amusing us, the toddlers were cared for by mum, and I excelled in school. Mum always would teach me stuff, like how to play chess. I told her my dream of going into the medical career, and first going to college. She promised me it would work, even though we could barely afford it (mom was only a hostess at the local Tony Romas). Mum also confined in me, ever since I was little. She told me about our financial problems, Dad's latest crimes, her fears and such. She told me she could trust in me because I was so mature. She would never tell Tempy because she was just to happy and naive. We were all fairly happy though. And now this! I am almost failing school, the twins know none of their essential skills, we live in a pigsty with a clueless nanny, and we own a gambling business! Thank the lord for Temperance! She is just such a big help, and so happy no matter our situation. I also have reached an important decision. No college for me. Even when Tempy is old enough to take care of the boys, I just couldn't do that too her. So I will suck it up and live it out!!! Even if it kills me!

Sorry for that rant. I just had to get it out. I just miss her so much.The twins grew up nevertheless. First was Darcy...who by some miracle of nature grew up well.Then came Jaquan...he seemed pleased even though he grew up badly. I know this looks lame, but I couldn't help it. One day, I got my report card:

Dear Mr and Mrs Kirkendall,

I am sorry to inform you that your son, Esmond, is performing horribly at school. He seems to have trouble concentrating in class. He appears to be neglected in various social ways, he does not talk to any of the other children. Finally, he never completes his homework. I am very disappointed as he appeared to be a potentially bright student. I feel his mark of a D- indicate his need to put more effort into his schoolwork.

Sincerely,

Miss Applebottom

Obviously I can not concentrate! Raising three children, trying to earn money, not to mention keep myself alive is enough to worry about right now without adding school to the baggage! Neglected in social ways!! I have not had time to worry about my relationships with my peers as I try to keep the Repo man from showing up on my doorstep, along with the Social Worker! Of course I don't complete my homework!!!

But seriously, me at a D-??? This finalizes my decision about college. I am just too stupid. It is not too late for the kids though. After I let out my tears, I made a decision. It is time to help this family further their education.I taught...and taught...and taught...and taught some more...Then I caught up with my huge pile of homework! Even if I am stupid I can't risk an F as it will cause the Social worker to come for the kids, which would probably kill me!The studying payed off for Tempy, she got her first A+ on her report card (at the end of the round Temperance was at an A+, Jaquan and Darcy were both at B+ and Esmond was at a C).Afterwards Temperance celebrated with a little bit of dancing to Miles' music.I have actually had time to make friends. I talk on the phone with Miles (even if it is about schoolwork)...and once I invited Ricky over (please ignore our conversation and Ricky's body gestures!!)And, I saw a girl! I have never cared about girls before, but she was really pretty! Miles told me she lives in Fellowship and her name is Lyndsay. Ricky told me her mom is an X-model and her grandmother is a retired singer. Too bad she doesn't know I exist. As if she would like me anyway, I lived in a shack (note from the queen: I don't know who I am going to pair Esmond up with, though I have some plans for Temperance!)After seeing Lyndsay, I realized it was time for a change. I had made quite a bit of money off the business (perks and such). Here's the new house!Yep, I even installed an elevator!(note from the queen: Esmond really is living the big life. He is such a hot shot he walks out to the girls in his PJs and tips them 100$!!!)Now get this, the weirdest thing ever. This is Siba Cooprider, in the hot tub, in a bathing suit, before I remodeled the house.My gosh! Where did the bathing suit go??? She sure isn't shy, and Mrs. Potts sure seems a little bit too intersted in her naked friend!!!!!!!I have more to worry about than an old crazy grandma though,

like how I am going to get rid of my acne, find a girl and realize me dream without college,

not to mention the fact that Temperance is now a teen. And a beautiful one at that!

Temperance Kirkendall (eventually to be Temperance... Oh I almost gave that away didn't I!!!). Family sim, lifetime want is to become a captain hero, gemini, 4,7,8,3,3, turned on by black hair and fitness, turned off by stink. O yeah! I redid her room for her, she asked and I obliged. She has been so much of a help that she did deserve it! Besides hopefully it will convince her to be a good girl and to stay out of the way of guys!

Esmond out!

Funny Pic

Look at Mamma J's hair. She appears to have a small mohawk. Has her hair always been like this?? Why am I just noticing this now????


Comments:
Yay! An update!
It's very thoughtful of Esmond to not go to college. That way it will be better for his brothers and sister. And Temperance is so gorgeous!!
An elevator? Their business must be doing pretty good... :D (Why haven't I ever used elevators in my house? O_o I'm weird)
 
Don't worry, I totally forgot about elevators till the Kirkendalls. Business perks (the money award ones) have really helped out the Kirkendalls. The last one is worth 50k!!
