Your Sims are so gorgeous, I love the skintones you use and the clothing you put your Sims in. They all suit their makeovers and your pictures are just fabulous!

Thank you so much. Your comment really made my day as I'm in love with your game just as much! :)

Do you mind if I ask... do you use a lighting mod at all?

No, I do not use a lighting mod. I play my game on the highest settings and with shadows off, which helps to make it brighter. Then I up the brightness a tad bit in photoshop when editing the pictures.

Thanks so much for reading and commenting! I try to only make my Uni sims do studying or term papers when they have a want to, or if they have a want like making the Dean's List. So far, they've all done really well. I don't force them to go to class either, so if they choose not to go or have a want to skip class I let them. It also helps that they skilled a lot as kids/teens so they have almost all the skills that their majors require. They don't get to skill if they don't "want" for it either. So yeah, they all did really well, even with all the romance going on!

Aww, Sasha's adorable, I'm sure she'll have no trouble finding a new guy or two (or twenty if she's anything like her mom...romance secondary right?). Can't fight triple-bolters. (Love Della's look btw, don't think I've seen that hair.) And teenage hormones probably wouldn't have been the best basis for a lifetime together.

Otherwise uni seemed like a breeze for these kids, surprise pregnancy and all.

I sure hope Sasha can find the right guy for her. I'll have to take her around some of the Uni campus locations and if she doesn't find a Uni student, I'll have to take her around town once she graduates! She's too cute to go single forever!

Della's hair is a recent one by selenaq13 right here. I believe Darcy's hair is also one of these. I love them both! :)

Uni was definitely easy for these kids. I think it's because they all skilled so much during their kid/teen days. So they really just needed to go to class to pull passing grades. The pregnancy was definitely a surprise. I never heard the lullaby so it was a complete shock for me!

You are very welcome! I check her blog religiously because I love her recolors and she picks such nice hairs to do.

Having a sim with multiple triple-bolt attractions is annoying, aren't they? (especially if you are trying to engineer their lives and they want the wrong sim) Sometimes I feel cruel for making them choose, but it's nice to see you do the mini-makeover to fit attractions too.

Of course, sometimes that backfires on me. Since almost everyone in my hood has black hair now, everybody's attracted to it and I can never be sure who people are going to have the most chemistry with (and of course, it's often not who I had picked out for them :)

Somehow once Carter got his makeover, he and Della lost a lot of chemistry and Bree became his top attraction again at only 2 bolts. I'll have to check Della's turn ons/off to see if that's what caused it. I don't know why he and Della had such a high chemistry to begin with. They didn't match any turn ons that I can think of, and in fact she has Carter's turn off. I guess their zodiac signs played a big part in it! I don't think either of them are romance sims either, so there shouldn't have been a boost there. Oh well, as long as he's with Bree, I'm happy!

I'm not good at picking out the right mates for my sims either. I usually try to change them so they have at least 2 bolts, but I really can't deny a natural 3 bolter. Dixon and Della were just meant to be together!

That happens to me too, chemistry changes for no apparent reason, which can be frustrating if I'm trying to hook people up!

What a wonderful update. Love the college years. Unplanned pregnancy and break ups are a part of that. They're all doing well, huh? Way to go, Bakersfield kids!

Yeah, Darcy's pregnancy was a total surprise for me! I didn't know about it at all until I saw her over the toilet. Lol, I think I almost fell out of my chair when I figured it out! Luckily, she's the only one so far!
