Do you remember any specific story lines used in your Barbie games?

"There are a few I remember pretty vividly, mostly were a lot of weddings and honeymoons. Most of my Barbies were fashion designers or models so there was also a lot of runway shows. I would also have a teen Barbie sneak out to meet her friends and party a lot. It seemed so risque to me at the time."
