“Melting in the Summer” was only a normal seller, making $1,419
“Maybe I need some experience in Romance, some sort of inspiration” he thought, “But my first two were good. Maybe that was luck”

After Quadrant class with the broadcaster on Tuesday, Wilfred went to the gym to kick off his Athletic skill, in his Roaring Heights white gym outfit.
“Better than a blue skirt flying up” he thought, which was what Bettie Franklin’s outfit had been doing, “Most unladylike”.
After gaining one Athletic point, Wilfred thought that was enough to..
Play collegiate sport at the stadium. He started off with Rugby. Go The Knights! (Newcastle, Australia – Robbie O’Davis and his victory dance)
“And here come the rugby stars of the day! Wilfred Adamson, how’s it feel to gain your first level of Jock influence?” Nicolas Albright asked. “Utterly exhausted, pardon me. Uh .. oh” Wilfred managed.
He had to go straight home to bed, in the middle of the day.
Later that night, his session on the brain machine maxed out his Charisma.
Now whenever he uses a charming or really loud introduction, he’ll instantly be friends with the person. Handy for interviews, and everything else.
He’s now maxed out the two sim-skills involved with the Journalist career. With those out of the way he can focus on other things when he starts back home. He thinks he might use the brain machine for Photography now, which to me is annoying to achieve the regular way.

Skip the Jock is in Wilfred’s O’Connor class, and Wilfred wanted his advice, and influence.
“How do you play collegiate sport without getting completely exhausted?” he asked him, “I started with rugby, should I try something else?”
“Well!” Skip clapped his hands eagerly. Wilfred was taken aback by his high pitched voice, “I’m not totally sure but it might get easier the more athletic you are and the higher your Jock STATus. Hey! If you find different sports give different impacts let me KNOW!” he sung.
“Not that we get to do any of them” Walter Fullman complained.

Again Wilfred passed his Friday exam. He was so excited about that one, his stomach hurt.
He used the rest of the day to play collegiate sport. This time he picked soccer. It still drained his energy a lot, but not as much as rugby did.
He still needed to go home to bed, with another level of Jock influence, also helped by befriending Skip. He didn’t take note of the other sports’ effects after that, maybe that’s something for his future children to finish researching.
While he slept, he started to feel ill. There is no hospital at university to get that fixed. Wilfred hasn’t discovered which, if any, herbal tea cures the flu. Maybe volunteering as a test subject, Medical, at the Science building does.
He wasn’t cured, but had a sugar rush from something they gave him.
One of these days, one of my sims will find it, as well as for World Adventures, unless there truly isn’t anything, only at home. Of course, Wilfred could buy Simmunity with happiness points, but he’s saving them up for some other things first.
The second week of his third stint flew by, as did Autumn.
Again he passed his Friday exam.
