First Love, First Date ..... First.... Everything Really

Okay, I shall reveal who my sweetheart is shall I?

Please don't be weirded out by this one, honestly, there's a valid explanation. I swear.
He said that he'd been put into suspended animation, just waiting for someone to release him from the bonds of Freshman Years here in college.



Yep, it's none other than my Dad's best buddy Dorian Long.
Remember him? The guy with the blond hair and bandanna?

Normally I'm not too keen on blond haired guys, but he's such a peach, really. I busted a move on him and he was well impressed.


We got on well, so well in fact that I skipped class (don't worry, I'm well ahead of everyone else in class) and went on a date at the Student Union building. I was so nervous, getting into that taxi, hoping that this would be a really nice date for me.





We danced close together, I even autonomously (thanks to ACR), kissed him up the arm.... well that's out of character for shy old me, and he loved it.


Whilst I was there, we suggested buying cell phones for one another so we could keep in contact all the time.



It was nice, being in his arms and all that physical closeness.


It was a 'first' for me, with my very First Kiss too.



Did I tell you he's a great kisser? Can't seem to get enough of those lips of his, honestly. They're so hot they'd melt metal. (just kidding.... no really).





I noticed that Lori our dorm cook had been drafted in to cover the cafeteria shift. Apparently there's been an outbreak of flu, and they're short staffed. What a trooper huh? Guess I'd better roll up my sleeves and help out sometime. It'll be a good way of building up my cooking skills anyway, they're pretty low to non-existent.


But, we're going off track here, our date went fantastically well. We played pillow fights, and Dorian just simply adored my back-rubs. In fact, he kept wanting them..... a LOT.


We had so much fun on this date, realizing so many wants, that it ended up as a 'dream date'.

Gosh, I love this guy.






He could do with a little make-over, but for now, the bandanna and ponytail remain.



He even brought a HUGE bunch of red roses to the dorm for me. Isn't that romantic of him?
I even found out that he's a Family Sim. All the better for me as I'm a Knowledge/Family combo. I think we'll do fine together.

You noticed that the title also said a First for Everything.

That's so true.




Whilst on our date, who should magically appear, but a Good Witch. I was delighted, and so was she. I can foresee good things in the future there.

I'm wondering if I get to be a Good Witch just like her? That'll be interesting.

Anyway, I invited Dorian back to the dorm, and, well, they were all so happy to see him that they clamoured to greet him and all wanted to chat.


Wow, I AM impressed.

But, it's been a long day. The desert sand gets everywhere, so, before I retire to bed, I'll have a nice long shower, and dream of our first of many dates, and just how far this relationship will go.



So bye for now and catch up with you all soon.

Take care

Helen

Settling In

Hi I'm back. Just to let you know, I've settled into college very well. Making friends and meeting new people.
I took Psychology as my Major. My Professors are Anthony Centowsky and Amanda Seavey. Dad was right. They ARE supportive.

I finally placed names with faces in my dorm.

Gerard Haggerty

Rebecca Wilkie

Trista Young

Aiden Patch.

Many of them are camera shy and hate getting their pictures taken. But Aiden's quite cute really. He's kind of the 'live-wire' in the dorm. Always hogging the video machine and dancing to the stereo. I'm surprised he gets any studying done.

As you've probably noticed, there's a sudden trend in purple hair. That's thanks to Trista my makeover friend. She sort of .. ahem... got the recipe slightly wrong in her Hair and Beauty night classes. Not that anybody minds. They think it's cool and are attempting a new trend.

I'm better off with my blonde hair thanks.

Aiden doesn't like me.
Especially after I tried to throw food at him one day, just for fun. Guess I'd better reel in my 'fun' side around him.


I did say sorry and stuff.


And I've tried to patch things up by hanging out and playing toss football, but there just isn't a 'spark' there between us. Besides, he's the type that holds grudges.

See, told you. He's always shying away from me and telling me to back off. Maybe I'm being a little too intense for him.




Besides, he can be a little outspoken too. Loves to argue about a lot of topics all the time. We, my other dorm buddies and myself, have all decided to 'blank' him out when he's on one of his tirades. Makes life so much easier for us... I can tell you.


Oh Mom and Dad called today to tell us about the babies. Actually, I think it's mainly to check up on me, but they tell me to pass the message on that they're all doing fine. A little frazzled and constantly exhausted, but they're all good.


Just waiting for Tristan and Violet to get here now. That won't be for another year or so - provided they can cope with the babies that is. I know Tristan loves his privacy .... a LOT. Oh and poor Chloe. How is she going to cope with four toddlers pulling at her from all directions?


We're all a good bunch here. We all eat together, study together, let our hair down together.


Oh, I know Dad prewarned me about the Cow Mascot. Berjes Pong.



Yup, he paid us a little visit, just as Lori Perry our dorm cook was taking a well earned break and immediately, Berjes tried to hit on me.
Politely I refused.



After all.... I DO have a sweetheart.

*blushes*

Truly I do. You'll never guess who it is though.....

WOw, love really DOES find you in the most oddest of places.
But for now, I'll say bye bye and catch up with you soon.
It's almost finals time, so I'd better cram in as much studying as possible.



Halfway through my Freshman year already? Wow time does fly by.

Ta ta for now
Helen.
