Pleasantview 9/11/20

Up first is Briarwood boys' dorm B (see PV 7/8/20) which is maxed out with six students: Simon and Teddy Korman, Jake Alpha, Glen Gray, Richard Ottomas, and Steven Ottomas.  It was Sunday, so the teens invited their parents to visit.
Simon and Teddy invited their mother Brittany, but their father Alan was unable to attend due to being a vampire.  Teddy had to leave for work for a few hours, but he came back with a promotion, so it was worthwhile.  Apart from that they both did some skilling and socializing.
Jake invited his parents, Drake Dreamer and Bethany Alpha.  He was working on a body point this round, but really didn't want to stay in the pool lol.  I had to micromanage him and force him to swim laps until he finally got it.
Glen invited his mom Aiyana, but focused most of his time on skilling.  I only instructed him to get one point, but I think he earned several more on his own.  He was a skilling machine.
Richard was new this round.  He invited his parents, Ella and Geoffrey Ottomas, to visit.  He was already friends with Glen, but made friends with several of the other boys as well.  He's very well-liked.
Poor Steven just seems so lonely to me.  He earned a body point while swimming alone, and although he has managed to befriend a couple of the other boys, since they're all older than him, it means they'll all graduate and leave him behind.  It feels like he's been here forever already, and yet he'll be here longer than anyone else still.  Poor kid.

Wrapping up Briarwood is girls' dorm B (see PV 7/8/20) which still has just four girls: Caryl Broke, Kimberli Cox, Tina Traveller, and Madison Kim.  It was Sunday here as well.  (You may be wondering why I mentioned the day each time, despite it being the same day in each unit.  That's because, at some point, one of the dorms may become empty and therefore it won't be played when the others are, causing its day to be different once it regains students.  For now, they're all in sync, but they might not always be.)
Caryl invited her father Aiden Broke and spent some time playing kicky bag with him before going off to study her mechanical skill.  She didn't have to work , so she spent her evening hanging out with the other girls and then went to bed early.
Kimberli invited her mother Hailey, but ignored her by playing kicky bag with Caryl and Madison's dad until Hailey left early.  Kimberli also decided to get a job this round, given that everyone else in her dorm has one.  She chose Adventure, had her first day of work, and immediately got promoted to the top of the job.  What's so hard about work?
Tina, of course, didn't have any family to invite, so she spent the day skilling and socializing with other students and their parents.  Madison's father and grandfather spent a lot of time trying to talk to her.  She wasn't creeped out by it, but I was.
Madison invited her parents Alon and Nadine Kim, as well as her grandpa Justin Kim.  She spent some time hanging out with her mom, since her dad and grandpa were busy trying to befriend all her roommates.  Then she went off to work where she was promoted to the top of her teen job.

Our last update of the day is at the Pleasantview prison (see PV 7/9/20), where we have four inmates (Thug Alvin Broke was paroled last round and moved out immediately to the homeless shelter at the beginning of this round): Mason Tellerman, Rosemary Bruty, Shane Grundstrom, and Claire Ottomas.
Mason was fired from his Criminal job, meaning he'll need to start over when (if) he gets out.
Rosemary has not technically been fired yet, but she will be in the near future.
Shane was up for parole and it was granted, so he'll be moving to the homeless shelter at the beginning of next round.
Claire was also up for parole, but hers was denied, meaning she'll need to serve one more day before being released.  Since her high school grade has now dropped to a D, she will not be accepted to college (or even graduate high school) next round and will need to get her education online.  She can move home with her mom at least while she's working on that, so she won't be as bad off as most who leave here.

Happy Simming!
