Off to school they go. They are actually nearing the age I usually send my Sims to college, so they won’t have to spend much more time doing school work (well, high school work). I’m kind of excited to have them grow up, even though I’m kind of nervous because right now, they don’t have enough money to send all of them to college… 

Swan, meanwhile, asks walk-by Nolan Kosmokos on a date. It seems to go well…

…until Swan tries to “smooch” Nolan. Thereafter, the date ends abruptly, with Nolan immediately leaving because Tiave came home and asked his “tag-along” to leave, too.

In the meantime, inside the house…

Kestrel: “Nice job cooking, zit face!”

Looks like Orion’s nickname catches on.

Orion: “Ignore her, she’s just discontent about her job, ignore her, she’s just discontent about her job…”

Kestrel has to work today… but not for long because she chooses the wrong liquorice and gets fired on the spot. She’s heartbroken and not only because she now won’t have enough time to climb another career ladder and get that sweet scholarship money, securing her spot on the college list…
