Always nice to see someone delurking! I'm ...Hi! Always nice to see someone delurking! I'm really glad you've been enjoying Sullivan. <br /><br />I had a few reasons for switching to a base hood uni, I guess. One was curiosity; so many other simmers had switched and every single one of them said they'd never go back to having a uni hood uni. I figured there must be something awesome about this base hood uni thing!<br /><br />I think the thing that really attracted me to it though was being able to have my regular sims visit uni community lots. I think, at the time, I'd just built my science faculty and it occurred to me that it would make a really good workplace for science career sims as well, if only they could visit! It's nice to be able to have students living in the regular hood too but the vast majority of mine still live on campus. The community lots were probably what really won me over, I think!<br /><br />My current uni is in a shopping district hood. The main advantage of that, over a downtown, was that it didn't add any more townies. <br /><br />Thanks for reading!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-327839231397010482012-11-14T16:44:21.360+11:002012-11-14T16:44:21.360+11:00I'm a long-time lurker, but I finally had to e...I'm a long-time lurker, but I finally had to emerge from under my rock to ask a question about your game play. I just love your blog and I'm setting up my own so I've been re-reading to for inspiration. I was wondering why you switched from a uni hood university to a base hood university? I have the hack that allows young adults outside of a uni hood. Is your uni now a part of your base hood? Or is it a separate, non-uni-hood neighborhood? All right, I'll stop rambling now. Any insight you could give would be great!

It seemed a bit attention-whorey to keep updating that thread, as frequently as I blog! But anyway, you won't miss any if you rely on VSS but you won't know about each update the second it's released either. It's really whatever works better for you.<br /><br />Rebecca was a little more cartoony than what I was going for in that picture but I went with it anyway. Glad it worked!<br /><br />Rebecca's definitely not got marriage on the mind, though Lucian has met her parents now. So there's that. I haven't written that update yet though, as I only played it yesterday. It was...interesting, lol.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-5166520939448629852010-12-02T09:28:27.252+11:002010-12-02T09:28:27.252+11:00I need to start checking your blog more frequently...I need to start checking your blog more frequently. I keep expecting your updates to show up on VSS, but I think you don't update there until you do a few! <br /><br />I love the picture of Rebecca urging Susannah to go talk to Sam, and Susannah looks like she's fidgeting nervously! Perfect! <br /><br />Yeesh! Marriage is on Lucian's brain, huh? Interesting that it hasn't crossed Rebecca's mind yet. I think taking it slowly isn't a bad idea in that case!Rachelhttp://simstoriesbyrachel.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-33388703116387020732010-12-01T08:50:46.276+11:002010-12-01T08:50:46.276+11:00bbop, Lucian is just very eager, I think.

Decorating I do all the time but I don't often build. It's a little spartan but I like it. <br /><br />More on Susannah in the next update. <br /><br />Thanks!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-49551298178835166742010-12-01T01:19:58.356+11:002010-12-01T01:19:58.356+11:00Lucian is definately moving too fast.

This kind of thing is sure to turn Rebecca off!<br /><br />Sam is cute, though he needed a bit of surgery to get that way!

Lucian better take it easy if he doesn't want her to go running for the hills. Rebecca has a good head on her shoulders though and seems to know what she wants. Playing her and Susannah together should be fun. Speaking of which, I'm glad Susannah is finally getting out there and meeting people.

It was too funny, so I had to write it in.<br /><br />I would hate for Rebecca to miss out on roommate time. I think she'd regret that. For her, the best choice is to go and be young for a while and then think about settling down.<br /><br /><b>Tanja</b>, yeah, steal away! I was wondering how others dealt with this and then thought maybe they just gave up on the idea of private housing, Uni-style? I really need that in my hood though.<br /><br />Rebecca and Lucian may end up together one day but today is not the right time! Marriage can wait.<br /><br />Heh, more on Susannah in today's update. She's been busy. <br /><br />Megan will have to get over the fact that Rebecca's not moving home, because Rebecca is the most headstrong of the Kirby girls. Megan would have no hope of Rebecca bending to her will just because she complains.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-46513403467355413792010-11-25T05:05:05.558+11:002010-11-25T05:05:05.558+11:00Oooh, you made the house into a dorm!

I hope you don't mind that I'm (yet again) stealing this idea from you??<br /><br />It's good that Rebecca wants to take things slow, and doesn't jump in to marriage straight away! I would love to see those 2 end up together, they look good together! <br />And Yay for Susannah finally finding someone who she's a little bit interested in! She deserves it!<br />I'm glad those 2 girls will be living together when they graduate, they will be having a lot of fun, I'm sure of that!<br />And I'm sure Megan will get over the fact that her youngest one isn't moving back home!Tanjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07054869544598274885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-92194964477918590452010-11-24T17:27:06.062+11:002010-11-24T17:27:06.062+11:00Okat this line: "And he can keep his cool und...Okat this line: "And he can keep his cool under pressure in a way that I can't and I really admire that." with that picture totally made me laugh. Nice way to understate Rebecca, lol!<br /><br />And wow, yikes! It's a good idea to slow things down and take your time and not be pressured.

Susannah and Rebecca will be a good pair. <br /><br />I will definitely post more pics as I go but as with the rest of Sullivan, it will probably always be a work in progress. I still need to build/download a house to use for the family units and then my current uni will be up to par with the old one. Then I'll probably post some more pics.<br /><br /><b>Laura</b>, oh, I didn't think of your Micah. But I can see it now - both very earnest, which is not always a good thing. Although I can't really fault either of them for it at the same time. There are good intentions there but it's just too much, too soon.<br /><br />Susannah and Rebecca may end up with Audrey as a third roommate, I think. I'm in the middle of my second uni session and Audrey and Susannah are quite chummy. LOL but I'm getting ahead of myself again. Who knows what will happen between now and then?Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-58780578585937964902010-11-24T03:46:58.157+11:002010-11-24T03:46:58.157+11:00Wow, Lucian!

Sometimes they just don't get that slow means back-the-crap-off!!! lol!<br /><br />I'm glad Rebecca is holding firm with him though. And I'm excited that she and Susannah will have their own place after graduation!

LOL. I'm glad she's taking it slow. Lucian should really not pressure her, that's a sure way to make her break up with him.<br /><br />It'll be so much fun to have Rebecca and Susannah as room mates, I'm sure.<br /><br />Your hood project sounds so interesting, I hope you post pics once you're done.

HeredonCo...Thanks for your comments, everybody. :)<br /><br /><b>HeredonCove</b>, no kidding, right? Lucian's moving much too fast for Rebecca's liking. Slowing down might be a good course of action - he wouldn't want to scare her off!<br /><br /><b>Riverdale</b>, definitely nothing wrong with marriage, though Rebecca isn't the type to have thought about it much one way or the other just yet. She has plenty of other things to think about until that time comes for her.<br /><br /><b>Apple Valley</b>, well, Rebecca's only 21 and I don't think she really wants to be married to anyone right now. Lucian is really way too keen. I'll graduate Lucian along with her next January and see what happens. <br /><br /><b>Maisie</b>, lol, I agree! Rebecca and Lucian have only really been dating a year, which isn't all that long in Sim terms! She's not the kind of romantic who'd fall head over heels so quickly and get all caught up before she even had a chance to think. Rebecca likes to think!<br /><br />I can't imagine that the Kirby farmhouse would be all that conducive to studying with four other adults (one of them being Megan!) and a baby around. Susannah will be a much quieter and considerate housemate for Rebecca. And I think they'll be fun to play together as well. :)Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-87612098014939146962010-11-23T13:13:43.453+11:002010-11-23T13:13:43.453+11:00As an avid reader, I can firmly say that *I* don&#...As an avid reader, I can firmly say that *I* don't know Lucian well enough! And if I don't then I know Rebecca doesn't. Haha. Im glad she's taking it slow with him, she seems like she would be rather logical. <br /><br />I like the idea of the girls getting a place together. That'll be fun. Much More fun than her moving back home. That place will be a mad house once her sister has a baby.maisiehttp://Www.retromaisie.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-76157828018939493042010-11-23T11:44:03.168+11:002010-11-23T11:44:03.168+11:00I hope Rebecca waits a bit before settling down, b...I hope Rebecca waits a bit before settling down, but it is a bit scary that she doesn't want to be married to Lucian at all...maybe it's time to move on?Apple Valleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15211791410107503046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-68338276558856704332010-11-23T11:33:50.702+11:002010-11-23T11:33:50.702+11:00Yeah, Rebecca, don't worry too much about marr...Yeah, Rebecca, don't worry too much about marriage and all that.
