Chaz Whippler- Senior Year

 

Here at Pleasantview's assigned college of Académie Le Tour Chaz Whippler dwells with his fellow dormies.

They have a year and a half to finish as somewhere along the way I must've only played half a year (Emily Lee's turn I think) so I'm playing them until graduation.

Chaz lives here with Marla Biggs, Tom Freshe, Ellen Frost and Emily Lee,

as well as Phineaus Furley, who I've never singularly played as he, Tom & Ellen were so close together on the alphabetical list I played them as a group.

There's always a panic when a tree sets on fire outside. No harm done but these three do need to have a shower now.

Phineaus was the last of the household to join the Secret Society.

I've given these members custom hair so I can tell them apart when on campus lots.

Phineaus didn't leave until he became Big Sim on Campus. :)

But we are here primarily for Chaz, he is a Romance Sim who wishes to be a Hall of Famer, this is also the first time I have played him to any degree. He's lazy and playful and when left to his own devices can always be found playing a game.

Chaz ran out to talk to fellow student Jenna. He worked his charm upon her and found that they have 3 bolts of attraction!

He asked her on a date straight away and they went Downtown to Red's Diner where Jenna showed off her dance moves.

They fell in love over dinner,

and the date ended very well indeed.

Obviously I control the other Students enough to get grades, skills and catch up with friends. It's very handy them all having mobile phones.

Marla loves to Tinker and has enjoyed making and gifting a variety of robots to her fellow students, as well as keeping some for herself of course.

There was a moment when the students were all seriously studying but then a fire broke out and distracted them. Luckily the sprinkler system kicked in and everyone was saved. 

This Dorm cook is the worst as there is a fire almost every day, he clearly has limited cooking skills. :D

Marla and Tom fell in love autonomously during Emily Lee's round. They had zero attraction so they drank their ReNuYu vial's and went from zero to two. Pretty good. Fortune Sim Tom wants to have 6 pets reach the top of their careers while Knowledge lover Marla wants to become a World Famous Ballet Dancer one day. :D

Their new found attraction garnered all kinds of new wishes. ;)

Knowledge Sim Emily hasn't rolled any wishes other than to skill and here she is maxing her Creativity. She wants to be a Game Designer someday.

Phineaus and Ellen also fell in love and again had zero attraction for each other, so they drank their vials too.

They went from 0 to 3 bolts and immediately got engaged! The Family (Phineaus) and Fortune (Ellen) may have played a part in the attractiveness too.

They had a fun night. :)

Marla is always the first to finish her term paper.

Phineaus can now create a masterpiece. He wishes to raise 20 kittens or puppies so he'll be needing as much cash as possible as he won't have time to get a job. Luckily Ellen wants to reach the top of the Entertainment career so they will have funds coming in.

Ellen maxed Creativity on the synthesizer.

Marla is the first to Graduate, she spent the final semester getting fit in preparation for her potential career in Dance and finished college with a 4.0 in Biology, a Silver badge in Robotics as well as being in the Zone in Tinkering.

She threw herself  a party.

Then grew up and left for Pleasantview.

Tom Freshe followed quickly after, he graduated with a 4.0 in Economics and his taxi took him to join Marla at their new home.

Ellen Frost was next, she earned a 4.0 in Economics too.

then it was Phineaus Furley's turn. (I'm regretting having added the 'Castle' collection to the 'hood now) :D 

Phineaus got a 4.0 in Political Science and joined Ellen at their new home.

Emily left after Phineaus, she earned herself a 4.0 in History.

Then finally Chaz graduated with a 4.0 in Literature. I could have thrown him a party but by this stage I wanted college to be done with for them all.

Summary- A longish time playing 3 semesters but enjoyable and they all seemed to set their own paths in Romance with the exception of Emily so far.

Up next is a change of neighbourhood to Veronaville and the newly graduated William Williamson who again I'll be playing properly for the first time.

Robin Wheeler- Sophomore Year

 

We're back in Riverblossom Hills at La Fiesta Tech to continue the lives of Sophomores Robin Wheeler and Jules O'Mackey.

Both girls started Uni life in a dorm with Jacob Martin and William Parmeley but have moved to the Sorority House. (The former residents (Monica, Jessie, Sarah and DJ) met a swift death as I had no wish to replay them when I am already playing their versions in Veronaville).

There were plenty of household funds so a little makeover was in order. This time I put a downstairs bathroom opposite the kitchen, changed some walls/floors and furniture colours. Upstairs I made 4 bedrooms and split the large bathroom into two.

Robin was originally Riverblossom Hills' paperkid, she always liked Jules and they were the best of friends so it was fitting they went to Uni together, they are currently in love but who knows what will happen in the future.

Robin and Jules are Popularity Sims who wish to be Media Magnates one day.

Jules used one of the desks to work on her assignment.

Every student who walked by is greeted but it's very annoying that they are so obsessed with studying when they visit a house! 

Jules started to talk to the 'suited' students who came by.

Dinner is always a busy affair, it's rare to see just one extra student here.

The girls worked out together to reach Robin's goal of getting super fit.

It still amuses me when one student walks in on another in the shower purely for the expression on their face (and the scream). :D

Jules took the opportunity to recruit a pledge to clean, cook and do college work for both she and Robin.

Robin maxed her body skill.

Then greeted her former dorm mates, Jacob, William and Sandra (Roth) as well as Zoe Zimmerman.

Robin made best friends with Sandra Roth who was looking a bit cold.

Jules and her former boyfriend Jacob had a good chat with Jasmine Rai.

Guest Sandra made best friends with her dorm mate William and she'd warmed back up.

oh no here comes the killjoy coach...

Jules figured out the best way to distract her is to talk to her!

Phoebe finally spent enough time pledging to join the Sorority and said yes when Jules asked her.

She raided the house wardrobe for a new look. 

Phoebe Deppiesse is a Romance Sim who wishes to woohoo 20 Sims. She is added to the playable list.

Robin recruited a new pledge, she may not join this year but it doesn't hurt to have someone new to get to do lots of jobs for free. :D

They went to the local store to get clothes, electronics and meet some new students.

Jules got whisked to the LFT Secret Society.

oops the cowplant spawned a cake and a fellow SS member took it.

He died of course.

Jules felt bad and so used the Paranormal phone to call the grim reaper. She paid good money to have her fellow SS member brought back to life.

Of course I forgot that he is added to the household and so was waiting at the mailbox when Jules returned to the Sorority.

As he's a guy he's not welcome in this all girls house so I moved him to a dorm where he will join the playable list... he's Dorian Benson and we will see him next round.

Meanwhile Jules finished her Sophomore Year top of the class.

Followed by Robin. :)

Summary-

This was a quick year as I'd already played most of their first semester at the dorm before they moved here.

It's amazing the things you forget such as adding a revived Sim to your household! 

I do find it confusing when existing Sims are 'doubled' such as Zoe Zimmerman & Jasmine Rai (where I'm playing them in Veronaville) but I'm not killing them all off unless I find it necessary.
