Week 4 - Round 7-4 - Sim State Uni - Whispering Winds

All right! The votes are in and Rowan Night will be pledging into the Greek House. Thanks to all of you who voted. I was getting a little worried there that I'd have to decide myself, but then suddenly 3 of you voted, so hurray for you guys! My son also said he wanted to vote for Rowan so that puts it up to 4 votes for Rowan, 0 votes for April. I guess this means that I get to torment Sim-Me!!! I actually usually make fun of her butt. Sorry for the delay in posting. I stupidly decided to let Windows update itself last night, and it froze there for most of the night before I finally got sick of it and did a hard reboot.

So, Rowan, how do you feel about winning the poll to become the Greek House placeholder?
"Shh...I'm writing Tara's term paper."
OK, then. Well, I guess we'll be seeing more of you later on then.

Tara is apparently picking up some of my bad habits. This girl never gets dressed. She even goes to class in her pajamas if I let her. Course, those are classy pajamas, but still.

Rowan's discovered that the girls have the complete Anita Blake collection. From the shocked expression on her face she must be reading one of the later books.

"Really? You want me to pledge? I'd be honored."

April's been put on a swimming workout because somebody keeps bringing pizza to the house when they're not even hungry.

Rowan's finally spent enough time doing other people's school work to start doing her own. I'm really sick of her hair though. She's had the same hair for the past 4 failed legacies, and the last 2 neighborhoods I built for the kids. She needs a makeover before I introduce her.

"Sim State Uni? Yes, I'd like to declare my major! What major am I taking? Well, I'd like Physics, but the Plumbbob Diety says I have to take Drama."

Even Coach Dorian thinks that April's been gaining a little too much weight. I won't save you this time my dear, you are putting it on.

"Stupid coach, stupid plumbbob diety, grumble, grumble, swear words..."
Watch your mouth April. I can MAKE Eddie cheat on you you know.

The girls decided to throw a Toga party to introduce Rowan to all the teens in the neighborhood. For some reason Rowan's still wondering around in her yoga outfit, but whatever. Introductions, let's see, the blond on the bass is Lauren, Loretta and Billy are playing red hands, Rowan is stalking Bobby, and the one standing by the camera is Cora. Sierra's bowling, so she's not in the picture, but she comes to all the parties here at Whispering Winds.

Rowan finally changed into her Toga. I don't think we'll be seeing her in it often, so I thought we'd get a pic.

No sooner was she in her toga than she was out of it. Joining her in the hot tub are Billy, Bobby, and Loretta. These are the three teens who will be leaving for college the soonest, so I thought she'd better get to know them.

Rowan entered the house with her class bar nearly full, and after writing her term paper she now has nearly 50 hours where she doesn't need to do anything college related. Skilling Time! I've warned her that Tara will be taking her punching bag with her when she leaves. She's not pleased that it will be leaving, as you can see from her face.

Tara's been keeping in touch with Abhijeet, but hasn't had a lot of dating time. I finally convinced her that guys don't wait around forever if you only call them on the phone and she invited him over. Well, what had started as a crush rushed into love. They both want to get engaged and married, but I've convinced them to wait till after Tara graduates.

After spending the whole day with her friend the punching bag Rowan has maxed out her first skill. College Knowledge sims suck in that they rarely roll up the want to skill. Boo!

Like all Knowledge sims, Rowan is fascinated by the stars.

"Well, that was easy" Yeah, and you couldn't let me get a picture of you thinking about it without scratching your armpits, huh?

This is the booty that Tara will be bringing home with her, she also has some robots, flowers, and toys that Eddie, April, Kirsty, and Amber gave her.

And here she is all grown-up. It's kinda skank-meets-trailerpark, but for some reason, I actually kinda like it. Besides, she'll be taking care of pets all day, so a really nice outfit would be unrealistic.

Here's April's stash. She's also got all the toys she's ever made, but she didn't get housewarming presents from the other grads, because they already gave them to Eddie.

Well, she grew-up well, but with horrid fashion sense. You'll be getting a makeover when you get to Knowlton dear.

That leaves just Rowan at Whispering Winds. She's being a pain in my backside however. She refuses to roll up college wants, or skill wants. I suppose I'll have to find her a spouse too.
