Hollywood Challenge 12/18/18

The Burkes had a quiet day at home, but thanks to Lexie's early morning work hours she scored a chance card bonus of $4000 right before the end of the round.  Nicholas padded his celeb hours a bit and Michael invited his friend Kaitlyn Pederson over to play.  After paying rent and making a payment towards Nolan's tuition, the Pedersons are more broke than ever.  There was some happy news, however, when Kaitlyn grew up into a teen.  No more nanny bills!  Sydney Drake had a good day.  She did personal training in the morning, went to work and got a promotion in the afternoon, and spent several hours chatting on the phone with Andrea at night.  Despite Brandi Karr's interest in her, she seems to be more interested in pursuing Andrea.  She rolled a generic fall in love want and a want to be best friends with Andrea.  The Silvers continued to plug away at their goals.  I'm a little concerned about the fact that Jocelyn brings Nicholas Burke home from work every day and she has 3 bolts for him.  She and Dante are very close to starting their family and if she starts getting interested in Nicholas it could throw a monkey wrench into the whole thing.  Brandi Karr finally let go of the want to fall in love with Sydney.  Maybe that ship has sailed?  She's met her friend requirement and nearly met her hours requirement.  They just need to earn a lot of money as quickly as possible.  Unfortunately both ladies have been off work for several days and the dj-ing doesn't bring in much.  On top of that, Caryl will leave for Uni in a couple of rounds, slapping them with a tuition bill.  She should get decent scholarship money though, since she's practically glued to her mom's electric guitar.  She also has an A+, so she should get two scholarships at least.  The Sanders have nearly met their hours goal, but they're having trouble holding onto friendships and money is becoming a problem as well.  Justyn makes next to nothing as a makeup artist, even with the bronze badge he earned this round.  Samantha's elder job pays very little and it takes time to write a novel, so she effectively earns less than she did in Culinary.
