Alice: Hi! I’m Alice Proudmoore and I’ve just arrived at college. To say I’m scared would be really silly… because honestly I’m FRIGHTENED as all get out! At least my greatest friends ever, Davina and Sade Derico, are here with me!
I don’t know what I was thinking when I dressed myself. Jania would be so upset at me copying her! I’ll have to go shopping for new clothes.
We joined their older brother, Brice Derico, in the dorms for a little while… but it was really lame. Pooling our money together, we bought a nice house on campus. Davina said she’d heard that people could apply for Greek House charters and suggested we do it. Brice and Sade were all for it. I was a little hesitent… but its really a lot of fun!
Of course, the real reason Davina wanted us to start a Greek House is because it would be easier for her to get boys! She’s boy-crazy, really. She’s always been that attractive girl who turns every head when she enters a room. Its what we all love about her.
What we don’t love about her is her constant spending on love potions! Sims cannot live on pizza alone! Leave us some money for food!!
Brice was more than happy to move out of the dorms because it allowed him more freedom with his girlfriend, Julie Tsang. They’re always getting hot and heavy somewhere in the house. At first it bothered mild-mannered Sade, but she’s become immune to it. Now she just acts like they’re not even there! Between her brother and her sister, she’s drowning in hormones.
I wish I could ignore it as easily as she does. You see, I never really knew Brice well… ‘cause he’s a little bit older than me, but I’ve seen him. I always thought he was, well, cute! But I never thought it would go past that. Now that we’re living under the same roof, I find myself wanting to be near him all the time. When he walks into a room, I feel strange and warm.
Seeing him with that ho Julie Tsang makes my blood boil. She’s pretty infamous around campus for ‘certain activities’. Brice doesn’t seem to care. They’re together and that’s all that matters. I hate it and I hate her. Why can’t he see me?
I’m even more drawn to him now that I know we share a common life goal. I don’t know what I’m going to do!
I think I’m going to go insane. Brice proposed. To Julie. They’re getting MARRIED! She accepted! How could she accept?! She’s had the entire campus almost! I hate her so much. I wish she’d just go away.
Now she’s a member of our Greek House. She hasn’t moved in… there really isn’t any room, thankfully. She might as well live here, though. Anytime I turn around, there she is. Argh!
Davina is finding ‘love’ of her own. She’s recently discovered that one can increase their GPA if they ’study’ with the professor. I really worry about her. Is she another Julie Tsang? Should I hate her, too?
No, Davina is different. She’s smart and witty. She’s clever. Julie is just a ho. No, Davina and Julie are very different.
Sade fell into the professor trap, too. Only she wasn’t the intiator. He was always stopping by. Eventually we found out that he was infamous for such practices and Sade quit his classes. He still teaches here, but only because Sade doesn’t want her father to find out. We’ve all promised not to tell. What happens in college, stays in college.
I wish Julie Tsang would stay in college… grrr…
Doesn’t she have any decency at all?! They’re like rabbits! All over the place! Give the rest of us a break, huh? I’m so sick of it. I just wanted to rip out her hair. That’d be great. She wouldn’t be so pretty then, would she?
Wow, I sound terrible. I feel awful. This isn’t me at all. Why am I acting this way?
I need to vent some of it out. Julie Tsang, feel my wrath! I gave her a good tongue lashing and sent her packing. Brice seemed stunned, but he didn’t say a word. Julie was mad. She glared at me and then him. I felt numb. What was I doing? I didn’t feel in control of my actions anymore.
Why was I turning into such a hateful person?
I love being his friend, but sometimes I wish we’d never met. Its so hard to be near him and not be able to do anything about it. It seems like he loves teasing me. I know that isn’t it, though. He doesn’t understand, he can’t see it. He’s just being friendly and playful when he tickles me.
Sometimes I really hate him for being so blind.
Davina isn’t well lately. There’s a lot of tension in the house. We don’t know what’s wrong with her. She refuses to go to the doctor. We all know what she’s afraid of… pregnancy. I hope, for her sake, that isn’t the case. What a mess that would be.
She barely goes to class anymore. I do her schoolwork for her. I’m not as smart, but its the least I can do. I hate to see her like this, so weak and frail. She’s supposed to be the strong one. I hate watching my best friend fall apart before my eyes.
Her illness is getting worse. She can’t keep anything down. She can barely even move. Sade wants to take her to the doctor, Brice is threatening to call dad. She keeps telling them no. Why won’t she let us help her? It isn’t fair. She’s not pregnant, that much is clear. You don’t vomit up blood when you’re pregnant.
I really wish she’d go to a doctor.
Everything seems to be falling apart around me now. I want to go home. I hate it here. I’m losing everything that I care about and there’s nothing I can do to stop it. I keep looking at myself in the mirror and thinking “what does she have that I don’t?” Everything, apparently.
I need Davina, but she needs me. I have to be strong now… but its so hard. Brice is graduating soon. He and Julie Tsang will get married. I feel numb.
The mounting tension is starting to affect everyone in the house. Even Sade, who is normally really calm, has started lashing out. She’s never cared much for Julie, but now she makes it known. They hate each other and are always fighting. Brice is at a loss. He loves his sister, but Julie is the ‘love of his life’. He’s torn.
I just want them both to go away. No more Brice, no more Julie.
My wish has come true. Brice graduated today. He’s back home with Julie, planning their wedding. Davina is feeling a little better, she’s regaining her strength. We finally convinced her to go to a doctor. Apparently she has some sort of rare blood disease that has yet to be named. She’s undergoing treatment and the doctor said that as long as she took things easy, she could remain in college.
I still help her with her assignments, but I hope that eventually she’ll be able to do them herself.
(This is why I LOVE Nightlife. It really makes sims stand out. Brice and Alice never had a romantic interaction, not a flirt, nothing. Alice was infatuated with him on her own. She followed him around and was angry anytime he and Julie shared a romantic interaction. Anything she did towards either of them was of her own accord. It was interesting to watch. As for Davina, she’s always been a bit lazy and I guess she somehow got sick… because for several days all she did was vomit. So I worked it in. I’m trying to be less of a control freak and let sims tell me what they want. If Brice or Alice ever actively want to flirt… well, then…
