Week 5 - Round 9 - University - Whispering Winds GH

Previously at Sim State University

Upon my return to Sim State University I discovered that the neighborhood was experiencing a rainstorm. Cool! A note to my readers. Whispering Winds will be getting quite a few new members this round, so for awhile at least the University chapter will be broken up into two chapters, one dealing with Whispering Winds, and the other dealing with the Rainseeker brothers who require much less camera time since all they do is date!

"Hmmm, I wonder what I should do to fustrate and irritate the Plumbbob Diety this round?"

Rowan has finally maxed out her logic, but once again I missed the perfect shot because of infant interuptus.

Meanwhile across town in a house hastily borrowed from Riverblossom Hills the new students were arriving.

The first to arrive was Loretta Luworld. Did you get dressed in the dark or did you purposely put on those clothes? I can see that my intervention is desperately needed here.

Next to arrive was Cora Wetstein. I'll reintroduce her after she's had her makeover.

The girls quickly called Rowan and asked to join the WWGH, who was only too happy to have company.

At the same time Lauren Knight was moving into Kronos dorms. Lauren's Threads actually aren't bad, so her makeover will probably be makeup and hair.

Lauren was quickly welcomed into the WWGH. Afterall, she'd been friends with all the girls for a long time.

With three new girlfriends to help out, Rowan decided that this Greek House was long overdue for a makeover as well, once these girls were properly attired and coiffed of course.

Look at the grin on her face! She knows it's time. Afterall, her mother did tell her to get some action while she was in college.

First Kiss for both, which I missed once again because of infant interuptus.

Too many blondes! Loretta's back to her natural color because I don't want the whole place overrun by blonds. It might diminish her attractiveness to Lauren as well. I mean Lauren and Cora have been promised to each other since Cora was a toddler, wouldn't want to change my mind now. Besides if I let Lauren and Loretta get together the non-stop phone ringing would be even worse. Two Popularity sims under one roof? *shudders, and hides under desk*

Here are the girls' renovations. They sold one bowling alley and put the other one up on the third floor that nobody uses. They're still planning a skilling room.

It's been quite the upheavel with 3 new girls moving in and redecorating and renovations happening, but everyone's finally settling in.

Rowan is being forced to skill build for her own good. She's still being ornery and refusing to have any school or skill wants.

Loretta is once more attached at the ear to her cellphone.

Cora has discovered where Cadence kept the money plants.

Lauren, bless her heart, has all sorts of good school wants, such as writing a term paper, going to class, becoming Big Sim on Campus. If she weren't intended for Cora I would kiss her myself.

Maxed Out Mechanical!

Rowan's in charge of the nursery for now. After all, the other girls will be here for four years, she only has two more left before she graduates. Besides badge building, sims seem to find it amazingly fun to garden, yet fishing is only fun when they catch something.

Lauren is the first of the new girls to meet Abbie Lee. Now you girls behave yourselves and play nice. No cheating please.

Timle Tourneau seems to be a great way of building friendships. Tons of fun too!

OMG! Those class performance bars either fill up really fast in fall or there's a good glitch in the game. I guess we'll find out in winter. All the girls have written their term papers and either done a homework assignment or talked to a professor and their bars are all maxed. In one day. (Not a glitch, it went back to normal speed when winter started)

The first to get abducted is Cora. I forgot that I took that hack out. Darnit!

"You would be so perfect for my friend Loretta. Plus, then I won't have to worry about her making eyes at my woman!"
"I'll make sure to check her out if she becomes a member."

Yippy! And she even spun up the want to earn her Silver badge after I let her stargaze. My goddess, are you starting to be less evil Rowan? Going to college is a good thing you know. And since this is a prosperity town and not a legacy town, you'll get to live much longer instead of being gone from the story within a few chapters.

Cora is the last to meet Abbie. They spent a little too long in the hottub though, which is why Abbie is so flushed.

"Hi, give me some sugar! All right, now that my aspiration is up, go make friends with my sorority sisters." And yes, RL me is almost as bossy as she is, at times at least. Not that Martin (RL Grizou) pays any attention to me. He knows he's got the power in the relationship, and all my attempts to steal some of it for myself generally come to naught.

You will obey me, or you will fry!

Yup, Lauren made it to Big Sim on Campus. As you can see, the garage is now skill building central.

Loretta's always getting stuck with the household chores poor girl. Rowan's busy trying to learn everything, Lauren came to college rather ill prepared, and all Cora cares about is money trees and painting.

"What? I swear I paid for that chocolate bar!"

Hermmm, I guess these two won't be a couple then. Take a look at the look she's giving her.

Rowan's maxed out her creativity, which leaves just cooking.

Loretta's also maxed out her creativity!

Wonders never cease! Rowan actually wants to write her term paper this year. I don't know why I keep taking the same shot over and over again.

Her first semester of college and she's already achieved her LTW! How cool is that?! Her new LTW is to Become Captain Hero. Piper Rainseeker was her 20th Best Friend btw.

Looks like it's Lauren's turn to join the Chicken Brigade.

A quick game of catch after class.

Poor Loretta's still the one doing most chores. I bet she thought she'd escaped that when she left home.

IW & LTW all at once, and she's still in college!

Wow! Apparently with maxed out charisma, 2 trees and 14 plots you can earn your gold gardening badge in one autumn!

Ahh, our first harvest.
"Don't eat the apple Rowan."
"Who said that?"
"Me, but I was just kidding, by all means, eat the fruit of knowledge."

Lauren spends all her time on the phone.

So does Loretta.

Except for when Rowan persuades everyone to go fishing with her. You'll notice that all the GH girls are wearing everyday or pajamas, yet Grizou and Abbie decided to show up in parkas, lol.

Heh heh, I guess you're not a very good fisher Abbie!

Way to go Lauren! We're into the first day of winter on campus, and she still managed to max out her charisma.

"I am so humiliated. I've been out-fished by women."

"what a wicked thing to do.... to make me dream of you.... and Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii wanan fall in love...."

Lauren's also managed to Max out her Creativity! That's pretty amazing for a girl who was a townie at the beginning of the year! She's worked really hard this year. Oh, btw, everyone made it to Big Sim this round, I just can't always catch a picture of them thinking or talking about it.
