Hollywood Challenge 12/24/18

The Burkes leveled up!  Having met all but the money requirement, all they needed was to earn a few thousand dollars and they just barely went over the mark.  Since they already lived in an appropriate apartment, all I had to do was reduce their money back down to $35,000.  Nicholas retired from his Science job and will look for an entertainment related job.  He will also switch to 2* celeb work, but I haven't decided what to have him do yet.  The only things he's qualified for at the moment are makeup artist and dj, but I've already got sims doing those and wanted to try something different.  If I build a yoga studio or spa, I'll have some other options so I think that's what go ahead and do.  Both Pedersons had the opportunity to get promoted this round, but only Neil succeeded.  Faith actually got demoted because of a bad chance card.  Nevertheless, they did earn enough money to finally pay off their Uni debt.  Too bad in a few more days Kaitlyn will hit them with another one.  Sydney Drake got a promotion which is great, but her new work hours will make it harder to get her personal training hours in.  She also made best friends with Andrea Hogan, so that's something.  This girl really likes to take things slowly, lol.  Nothing eventful happened with the Silvers.  Jocelyn didn't get promoted and was too tired to work her celeb hours.  Dante did his celeb hours, but made no money.  Nolan Pederson and Savannah Sanders spent most of their day at home, aside from their bartending gigs.  Savannah rolled the want to be friends with Dante Silver, but he never left his apartment and wasn't interested in hanging out when she knocked on his door.  Maybe he's trying to avoid temptation?  Rachel Burke had the day off, so she did some personal training and then hung out on the roof of her building with some of the neighbors.  She too rolled a want to be friends with Dante Silver.  What is it about that guy?  However, she also wanted to be best friends with the guy from college, Drake.  She achieved that with a phone call.  I'll have to have her invite him over to see if any sparks fly.  The Karrs met both their friend and celeb hour requirements in the same round.  Now they just have to work on money.  It helps that Caryl earned 3 scholarships and got A+ both semesters of her Freshman year at Uni.  It means her moms won't have to contribute as much out of pocket and might potentially be able to level up one more time.  Samantha Sanders finished her third cookbook and Justyn messed up some townies' faces.  Brooke rolled a want to be friends with Kaitlyn Pederson and accomplished it.  Unfortunately, she lost Michael Burke as a friend, but I'm sure she'll regain him soon, since they live in the same building and see each other all the time.
