Here we are back in Veronaville's University town of La Fiesta Tech at the Tri-Fruhm Sorority to visit with D J Verse and her fellow Greek house members.
Last time during their round Jasmine Rai and Zoe Zimmerman left the Shifting Paradymes house upon Gunner Roque's graduation to move in here and so 4 members become 6.
DJ is the creative type, she wished for garden plots and soon got her bronze gardening badge.
The next morning Monica Bratford graduated with a 4.0 in Art.
She threw herself a graduation party.
Then moved into this little home in Veronaville.
I usually stick around long enough for the free pc to be delivered (unless they already have one in their backpack) so I can place it and they can then be communicated with during the round.
Back at the Sorority Jasmine is embracing the phenomenon known as free pizza forever.
Sarah Love invited her boyfriend Matthew Hart over, he is sporting an unusual lamp on his head. :D
Jasmine (who wishes to have 20 best friends) made another in DJ.
While DJ works on a new pottery hobby the girls eat cheesecake.
Unusually for a Family sim Sarah wished to write a term paper. Perhaps it's her wish of becoming Chief of Staff one day that drives her.
Romance Sim Jessie just loves to flirt with new people. She wants to be a Celebrity Chef one day and strangely for a Romance sim always wishes to play chess. :D
She can add Physiology to the list of books she's read now.
Sarah spent too long in the hot tub and passed out from overheating. With a mixture of the spring/spring/summer/summer this 'hood is set at it's almost tropical. :D
Jessie was the last one to finish the semester and came home with a found/stolen goodie. :D
Another battered sofa... it's all good for backpack material as they don't really need any more seating.
Over breakfast the next morning this happened! Jasmine completed her LTW, I hadn't been paying attention or keeping count.
Jessie passionately greeted her fellow student and lover Cooper Lee,
then jumped in the pool with Darren Chung & played Marco Polo.
In the hot tub once more and next to Darren is the unmasked Llama mascot.
There's rarely a need to throw a party when the house is always full of students although Jessie did throw a toga party or two, just because. ;D
A new day and a new pledge, Allyn McCarthy is the latest to pledge.
Sarah has Allyn help with her term paper for this semester.
Jessie has some fun with the Llama mascot.
and DJ who wishes to be a Celebrity Chef one day invited her boyfriend Guy Wrightley over.
Allyn's pledge period is over and she is invited to move in.
She is a Family Sim who wishes to reach her Golden Anniversary. After fulfilling one wish she rolled to declare Literature as her Major.
Sarah meanwhile had taken Matthew to the vanity mirror to change his hairstyle and so the lamp on his head was no more.
DJ completed her term paper whilst Zoe enjoyed the just-out-of-shot piano player.
The only downside to the Spring/Summer set up is no Autumn bonuses for college so they have to actually do a bit of work to keep their grades up :D
DJ got a silver badge in Pottery which means she can now make pretty jugs.
and while she works on another Sarah learnt all there is to know about Parenting.
Family Sim Allyn's big wish is to fall in love and she's checking out some fellow students though none has any great attraction for her yet.
Both Jasmine and Zoe spend way too long in the hot tub.
They didn't quite need dousing in water to revive them but came indoors and after some food and a few glasses of water they got their normal colour back, eventually.
It was around this point in the game I realised that time seemed to have frozen in the Greek House and I can only trace it back to when Allyn joined the house. So when Guy called to invite DJ on a date she took all the household with her. (not very romantic, but needs must).
The others did at least stay in the corner and play pool while Guy and DJ enjoyed dinner.
Jasmine got her meal thrown all over her before they decided to head on back to college.
Thankfully as soon as they got back Sarah left for her final exam*, just as the SS turned up for Allyn!
They each left for their final exams and they all graduated, D.J last of the three.
Sarah grew up and left first. She got a 4.0 in Biology.
Jessie got a 3.9 in Psychology.
and finally DJ, who graduated with a 4.0 in Biology.
Summary-
Thankfully the time seem to be moving again normally for everyone (*I used the college clock hack to jump DJ, Sarah & Jessie's time forward for final exams* -I've no idea how many 'extra' days I must have played before I noticed) and so the originals moved out without issues back to Veronaville leaving Jasmine, Zoe and Allyn here.
We'll be back here for Zoe's turn at the end of the round but next it's another visit to the Viejo house in Riverblossom Hills.
Another object on a Sim's head? Oh dear, looks like this glitch is getting worse in your game. Apparently it is related to the Apartment Life expansion pack, which must be the buggiest Sims2 expansion ever!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, the girls had some extra time to make friends and have a new pledge move in :-)
Good idea to stick around a little after moving a graduate to their own place. I usually just make sure there is a telephone in the house, so that they can be invited over or called to chat.
It's so odd as I've never seen this glitch before but then before this blog I never really played apartments themselves.
DeleteI'll be back here for Zoe's turn so I'll see how it goes but if the worst happens I may have to just move them to a new house. :)
