Founder's College Years - The "6"

Well, here we are....we call ourselves "The 6."



After Sabien and Tomika had already started Uni, we were recruited in by the University. We were told that we were needed to help start a town called Simmington Hills. The requirement was that we be educated first.

Since we're all sharing this journal...we'll try to introduce you to everyone, one at a time, through some random photos we took on campus:

"I'm Cameron Masters, it's pronounced 'Cam-Ron', but nobody ever says it that way."



"I'm into physics, but my position in Simmington Hills will be the Archive Librarian. I'm the one that will manage the library and maintain the community & residents registry. It's a lot like physics, I have to admit, it's very thought provoking. I'll be keeping up with the historical facts of Simmington Hills, from the ground up. I've been told that it is one of the most important jobs there is.

I'm pretty shy at first, but once a Sim gets to know me...I can be a pretty loyal friend. I love the guys I'm rooming with, they're a bunch of fun. I'm always messing with them. And, I'm looking forward to working with Sabien Cunningham...that's one serious dude. He's all about setting up this government man, and I can totally dig that...I love politics."

--------------------------------------------------------------------

"I'm Nick...Nick Michels."



"I guess you can say, I'm the flirt of the group."

---"Nahhh, man...you're the Ladies' Man", Cameron shouts out Ladies' Man in a mock -Barry White-tone of voice. (Laughter breaks out in the guys group.)

"Well, ok...I'll take that. What can I say? The ladies love me. I've already hooked up with Asya and Honey...

---("Sshhhhshhhshh!!" The guys whisper.)

"Well, they act just like 'fans'. Screaming and moaning for me when I walk past 'em."

---"Honey was having cramps that day, Nick..she wasn't moaning and groaning because of you." Cameron interjects again.

"Man, shut up. Did I disturb your journal interview? NO." Nick rolls his eyes.

So, yeah, I admit I'm a bit of a ladies' man. I guess I've just got it like that. heh-heh. These fellas are just 'haters'. Especially Cameron. He's too busy being 'The Friend'. I'm not trying to be nobody's friend. I'm not a Romance Sim at all, I just kinda act like one. Hey, I'm in college, I'm supposed to have fun.

Besides all that....I have committed to studying Economics, so I can run the business end of Simmington Hills. Negotiating deals is what I'm all about. It works with the ladies, so why not? I've been talking to my man, Sergio. He's got some great ideas about farming...which we'll desperately need in the Hills. Dude don't look like no farmer, but hey, if that's his thing..."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

"I'm Sergio Spencer."




"Nick ain't the only one who can get chicks...don't let him fool you. Most of the women I talk to, love to hear that I'm into fine foods. I mean, what woman doesn't like to hear that a man can cook? It's a sensual thing to me. A nice romantic dinner can touch all the 5 senses...sight, smell, taste, touch and hearing."

--"And where does the hearing come into play, Serge?" (Nick and Cameron trying to give Sergio the flux.)


"It comes from the sound of your lips smacking when you eat my food, cause you'll think you're eating your last great meal...that's where it comes in." (Everybody busts out in gut-busting laughter.)

Yeah, I'm gonna be in charge of food distribution in Simmington Hills. I maybe don't look like the farmer type, but I used to farm with my grandparents, when they were alive. It's hard work, and I'm not looking forward to it, but it's where I have to start. I plan to eventually own a restaurant, but I have to put that on the back burner in order to get the Hills up and running. People have to get their groceries from somewhere."

-------------------------------------------------

"My name Asya Rasmussen. Pronounced 'Asia', not 'a-SEE-ya'." (She rolls her eyes over at the girls.)




"Some people are just ghetto. Anyway, I'm the pranksta' of this group. A lot of people didn't like me at first 'cuz I was always pulling practical jokes, but now....they can't get enough of Asya. I'm smart, I'm funny, and I'm damn sexy...what is there not to like? I'm studying History in order to establish Simmington Hills' Military Base and Command. Yeah, sexy ain't it? I'm tough like that. It's a high honor. ----Gotta go, this guy wants to talk to me."

--------------------------------------------------

"Hi there, I'm Honey Tebo."



"You see I'm scrambling to get this assignment done. I haven't been feeling well the last couple of days, and have fallen behind on my work. I'm taking Drama classes here at SSU. I'm the Actress...well, I hope to be. I want to be a Star!

Most people can't believe how well I can jump into character...it's all for effect. I can touch people's hearts because of my ability to really connect with them and their situation. My parents used to call me a chameleon. I could change personalities at drop of a dime."

--"Yeah, she crazy, that's what that is."

--"As a bedbug." (Asya and Trinity mumble in the background.)

"I'll be in charge of the Athletics program in Simmington Hills, in between my gigs. I guess it's because of my physique. I am well-toned, but I have to be in 'the business'. I like to look good, and I like that guys look at me the way they do."

-------------------------------------------------------------------

"I'm Trinity Higgins."



"I'm a cheerleader and at the top of my class. I've been on the Dean's List every single semester. Medicine is my field of study, so I'll be heading up the Medical Program for Simmington Hills.

Most of these Sims around here think I'm stuck up, but I'm just into my books. I don't play with that, and I don't have time for boys, either. Once I graduate, then we'll see. I just want a lot of friends and I want to be popular, which I think I am...but, it's hard when all I do is study, and everyone else wants to go out and have fun."

Founder's College Years - Sabien Cunningham



I'm finally here. I have been dreaming of attending SSU since I was a little boy.

It's taken me a minute to decide what major I wanted to study, but I finally decided on Politics. And I HATE it.

This is the most boring subject there is. I'll keep plugging at it, though. My professor says I can always read some cool magazine on the subject and it will spark my interest. Maybe I'll do that.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

We had a great tour of the student campus today. I saw a lot of fine young ladies, too.

But, I can't go letting these girls distract me. I have to consider my future.

There was this one chick that reminded me of a girl I knew back home. She's real cute, but I can tell she's not here to study. She laughs too much.

--Sabien

She Walked Right Past Me...
Like she didn't see me! What the...???




I get it...she's trying to play hard to get. That's alright...Tomika can be bougie if she wants to. She will be gotten.

Daaang, I want to spend some time with her. I need to go study anyway, maybe this was a sign. Most of the time, 'Mika acts like she wants to chill with me, but it's usually only when I'm doing something important. Then she gets mad. It's like she's testing me....

--Sabien


Tomika is 'The One'

I'm in love! I knew it before she did.

Tomika is my dream girl. I love to talk to her...among other things. LOL!




She and I have shared so much already. I hope she feels the same way as I do.



Things got a little weird after we, uhhhmm, got intimate....I hope it doesn't change things between us.

--Sabien


I'm Moving

Gotta move into my own place. What the heck was I thinking? I came here totally committed to being the best student I could be, and I end up pushing up on this girl too quickly, and now she's pushing me away.

She says "she can't concentrate..."

Ok. Sabien. Get a grip. I shouldn't be trippin' on her. Neither one of us were doing what we were supposed to be doing.

Where the heck am I gonna get the money to live somewhere else? I have just enough to rent this little shack at 35 Peanut Street, but I don't have enough to furnish it with my necessities. I bought a bed and toilet, but it still needs a shower, a desk and a chair at least, and I've got to have a computer to write my term papers. I can't study at the student library...too many people and too much noise.




Maybe I'll ask Tomika for help, she's all I got.

--Sabien


Working Harder Than...

Seems like all I do is work...if I'm not studying, I'm at the Technical Training Center trying to develop some skills for business, or working at the Deh'Javu Modern Art Museum, Downtown. I'm praying that all this work will pay off. My dream is to earn $100,000. Nevermind that...I've got to pay the rent and be able to eat!







Tomika keeps questioning me if I like her or not....'cause I'm never around. I told her what my goals are, and she says I talk too much about money. "You need to relax, Sabien." Yeah. Ok.

It seems like ever since she sent me that money, she acts like she owns me. I'm not for sale, and I promised her I would pay her back.

A pretty girl sho' can make it hard for a brotha' to come up.

--Sabien


I'm Getting Back on My Feet!
And I owe it all to Tomika!




My place has really turned out nice, despite how small it is. I'm really grateful for everything she's done for me...she even bought me a copy of "Highbrow Review", that political magazine my Professor told me about, to help me gain interest in Politics.

I feel like I might be losing her, though. Lately, she's been giving me the cold shoulder. After our visit today, she finally told me she needed to take a break from 'us'. There's no way I'm letting her leave this relationship like that...I've got to think of something.

--Sabien


She Said Yes!

I did it...I got down on one knee and proposed to my babygirl!




I can't tell you how relieved I am, that she said YES! Now that I feel more at ease about our relationship, I'm gonna stop writing in this here journal until after graduation. I need to devote all my time to my girl, and to my books.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I wrote a letter to the Mayor of Simmerville, Mrs. Eline Shalloe, in hopes that she could give me some pointers on how to lead a community. I hope that she and her Hood Council can help.

--Sabien

Founder's College Years - Tomika Green



I made it to college! Wow....My major is Psychology. I think Psych will help me identify the 'crazies' I'll be going after once I get a job on Simmington Hills' Police Force. My dream has always been to become a Captain Hero. I was inspired by watching CSI:Miami...I love the whole series. It's my favorite tv show.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, I've got all my things moved into Landgraab Dorm. My room is located next to the exit/entrance doors. If I step outside my room, I can see who's coming and goin'.

Some of the Senior students took us on a tour of the campus. It was so exciting!

There was this one guy in my tour group that was cute! I wonder where he's from?

--Tomika


That Guy Lives In My Dorm!




Remember that guy I wrote about? Well, he lives in my dorm, about 2 doors down from mine!

His name is Sabien Cunningham. He's reaaaallly nice. I love the way he laughs! He can be a little too serious at times, though. When I wanna go hangout, he would rather stuff his face into some book!

He copped a small attitude with me today because he told me I was acting stuck up. He said I acted like I didn't know him. I did not! I didn't see him standing there! Does he think he's God's gift or what?

(Between you and I......I really did see him there, but I'm not gonna stop and turn around like some puppy dog, when he didn't speak to me! He saw me first!)

--Tomika


I Lost My...
hmmm yeah...





It all happened so fast! Before I knew it, we had gone all the way! I don't regret it, don't get me wrong...but, I wonder will Sabien look at me differently? I'm really diggin' him! I've never felt this way before...I guess 'cause it was my first time.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I got an important Psych test back today...I almost failed it. I really need to re-focus on my books...this guy has totally knocked me off track. It's not his fault...I'm the one to blame.

--Tomika


I Made The Dean's List!




...Made it by the hair of my chinny chin-chin. The only way I could salvage my grades was to have a long talk with Sabien.

We both decided it would be best if he moved out of the dorm. Our grades were suffering, and it started to become too hard to concentrate. He was worried about not having enough money to rent this tiny house he found.

But, I promised him I would help him out. I sent him $1,600 of my scholarship money...but not before I got my hair and nails done. I may be lovestruck, but I'm not stupid! At least he's close by.

I feel like a fool. I hardly know this guy, but my heart is telling me to go for it.



He said he would pay me back, but he's broke just like I am....

--Tomika


I've Decided to Chill...

I'm putting this 'so-called relationship' on hold until I graduate. I've got to take advantage of this opportunity and involve myself in other things. I'm only gonna be in college once, so I might as well make the best of it.




Sabien hardly ever returns my calls, and it feels like I'm being a nuisance to him, so I'm backing off. The only time I ever see him is when he wants to hook up. And, even then...he leaves without saying goodbye.




--Tomika


My Cold Shoulder Worked!!!

I am going to be Mrs. Sabien Cunningham one day!!




I couldn't believe it! Sabien got down on one knee and told me that his whole world opened up when he met me...and he never wanted to let me go. Ohhhhhh!!! It was so sweet! The whole campus is talking about it!

I have decided to put my journal down...yeah, well...me and Sabien both. We are not going to have anymore pity parties on paper. I'll write again sometime after graduation.

Me so happy!!!! *happy dances around her room*
