College Daze Challenge, Season 2--The Winner is Announced

[PeregrineTook]

Pippin:  Phezelle has made it her mission to help Ellody become healthy and fit.



Ellody:  I want...you to find...another hobby...like...stamp collecting...or...
Phezelle:  Less talking more running!!



Pippin:  And Zheena has finished her paintings of the four finalists.  However, the girls were taking a break from such endeavors as they'd been invited to a party by an old friend:  Kyte Fladour.



Pippin:  It was her love day party, and love was definitely in the air, as you see here with Zheena and Kyte.



Pippin:  And Phezelle and Peanut.



Pippin:  And Billow and Peanut even as Peanut gives Kyte flowers.



Pippin:  And Phezelle and Billow?



Pippin:  And Gossamer and Chauncey (I missed the hearts on this one).



Pippin:  And Phezelle and Kyte.  But the pairing that seemed to have the most natural chemistry...



Pippin:  Was Billow and Joe.

[Swirl-Girl]

How sweet.

Hearts flying through the air
Everywhere
Flowers passing
hand to hand
Most odd pairings
Showing through 

(I used to be a quite proficient poet. Can you tell?)

[PeregrineTook]

Pippin:  A familiar face came by the household.



Pippin:  It didn't seem he was trying to awaken school girls this time.



Pippin:  Perhaps he was just upset that Ellody had been flirting with the maid?



Phezelle:  If my back wasn't so sore, you'd be in a world of hurt right now.
Pippin:  Fortunately, the Moonlight Falls police arrived...



Pippin:  just as the burglar fled.  Ah well.  In other news, here is our current leader board.

Billow Gaines has a 9 in piano, an 8 in guitar, and a 7 in bass



for a grand total of:  24

Phezelle Chill has mastered athletics, has an 8 in martial arts, and has a 6 in cooking



for a grand total of:  24

Gossamer Fallows has a 9 in athletics, a 9 in martial arts, and has a 5 in cooking



for a grand total of:  23

And finally, Zheena Ghast has a 9 in painting, a 7 in street art, and a 6 in photography



bringing her to a grand total of:  22

[Swirl-Girl]

Gossamer! Get back to work NOW young lady! (You're just spitting out these updates like watermelon seeds!)

[PeregrineTook]

Pippin:  It was a busy morning, for the living and the dead.



Phezelle:  Oh, hi Channa.
Channa:  Hey girl.



Channa:  Nooooo!!  The dishwasher isn't working!!  This is the worst thing that's ever happened to me!!
Ellody:  Really?  And is this even the worst dishwasher-related thing that's ever happened to you?
Billow:  Hi, Channa.  Have you met our new butler?
Pippin:  Yep, they hired a butler.



Pippin:  And this is the butler's favorite quiet place to get away from them.



Billow:  We must be going old school, 'cause I'm the Ace of Bass!



Gossamer:  I have a black belt...and pink wings!!!
Pippin:  After a day full of skill-building, the girl decided to attend a party at the MacDuff house.



Zheena:  Hey there, handsome.  Nice skirt!
Zach Durwood:  It's a kilt.  It's a bit less itchy on my scales.
Zheena:  Sorry, what?
Zach:  I'm a merman.
Zheena:  You disgust me!!



Pippin:  Billow found a familiar face.
Billow:  Oh hey, by the way, forgot to check, do you have a girlfriend?
Joe:  Nope.
Billow:  Where do I submit my application?



Gossamer:  Really?  That's very interesting.
Pippin:  What are you doing?
Gossamer:  Talking to this party guest.
Pippin:  That's a dog.
Gossamer:  Dogs can be guests!!



Billow:  What's your sign, Joe?
Joe:  Pisces.
Billow:  Really?  I love pie!  And seas!



Phezelle and Rick:  Shaka-bra!!



Zheena:  Guitars are fun.  Surely they won't mind if I take this one home.
Pippin:  Why did she have to add that kleptomaniac trait?



Joe:  ...and this is my twin brother, Jules.
Billow:  Well, I wouldn't say this in front of him, but he's hideously ugly compared to you.
Jules:  I'm standing right here.
Billow:  Shh, the adults are speaking.  So, Joey-pie, can I stay the night?



Pippin:  She did.  And in the morning,



Pippin:  our insane contender took a bath.

[PeregrineTook]

Pippin:  We are rapidly nearing the end of the competition.
Ellody:  Are we sure we can't just call it and announce me as the winner?
Pippin:  I'm sure.

Billow continues to be in the lead as she has mastered the piano, had a 9 in guitar, and an 8 in bass



giving her a grand total of:  27

Phezelle is next as she has mastered athletics, has a 9 in martial arts, but is only at a 6 in cooking



and that gives her a total of:  25

Zheena is hanging in there with a 9 in painting, a 9 in street art, and a 7 in photography



this means she has a total of:  25

Gossamer has reached a 9 in athletics, a 9 in martial arts, and is at 6 in cooking



meaning that our friendly fairy is in last place with a total of:  24

Can anyone catch Billow before she scores those final 3 skill points?  Stay tuned!

[PeregrineTook]

Pippin:  With the dubious honor of being the founder of a "Who's Your Daddy?" challenge on the line, our competitors keep working away.



Pippin:  Phezelle, what has been the hardest thing about the challenge thus far?
Phezelle:  Putting up with the glowbug.
Gossamer:  My wings glow!!



Phezelle:  I've almost got this martial arts thing mastered.  Who doesn't think I'm the obvious choice to win this competition?



Pippin:  Umm, I'm thinking she doesn't.



Gosamer:  Our new butler only has half a pair of glasses!
Butler:  It's called a monocle, ma'am.
Gossamer:  A monocle?  Is that like a monocycle?  Or a monocorn?



Billow:  I'll have the bass mastered before too long.



Billow:  And the guitar.  But, why don't we have any lights in this hallway?
Pippin:  What?  No lights?  Like I would have missed that through this entire challenge?  Oh, what could that big, distracting thing be?



Zheena:  This mural of Ellody may be bigger than she actually is.



Pippin:  What has been the biggest challenge of this competition thus far?
Zheena:  Nothing.  I'm going to win.
Pippin:  Well, that's nice confidence.  But who will be our winner?  You'll find out in the next update!

[PeregrineTook]

Pippin:  After weeks of exhausting work, aging from teen to young adult, and to adult for some of you, the time has finally come to announce our winner.
Ellody:  Shall I accept my crown now, or later?
Pippin:  Again, you weren't a contestant, you were just the house parent.



Pippin:  As you can see, we've gathered all of our competitors into the main room.  Hello, ladies.



Phezelle:  'Sup.
Gossamer:  Howdy!



Zheena:  Hello, Pippin.
Billow:  Hi there.
Pippin:  Thank you all for your hard work in this competition.  Everyone looks a touch anxious, so we won't waste any more time on pleasantries.  We will now reveal how each of you did starting with our third and fourth place competitors.  Phezelle, please stand.



Pippin:  You managed to master athletics and martial arts.  However, you only managed to get to a 7 in cooking.  I'm afraid you are not our champion.  Thank you for participating.



Pippin:  And now we are down to three.  Gossamer, please stand.
Gossamer:  No thank you.  That didn't work well for Phezelle.



Pippin:  Please stand anyway?
Gossamer:  Okay.



Pippin:  You managed to tie Phezelle with mastery of both athletics and martial arts, but only a 7 in cooking.  I'm afraid you are not our champion.
Gossamer:  Okay, but do I get to keep my wings?
Pippin:  Of course.
Gossamer:  Oh, that's fine then!



Pippin:  We are down to our two final contestants.  Billow, you maintained a lead through most of our competition.



Pippin:  You managed to master both guitar and piano before Gossamer had mastered any of her skills.



Pippin:  And Zheena.  You managed to hang in the middle of the pack for most of the challenge.  However, within one 24 hour period, you mastered both painting and street art.



Pippin:  So, the whole competition came down to bass for Billow, and photography for Zheena.  And without any further ado, our winner, by an extremely narrow margin, is...



Pippin:  Zheena Ghast!!  Zheena, your reward will be moving to Isla Paradiso, as our first Sim to ever reside in that region, and found a Who's Your Daddy challenge.  Congratulations!!  Thanks to all of you who have followed and enjoyed this challenge.  Please tune in to Zheena's adventures in Isla Paradiso, coming soon to the project stories page.

[Swirl-Girl]

Gossamer! I told you to keep studying! Didn't you want to be a fairy mama?

[chetanhaobijam]

Congratulations to Zheena Ghast for winning the College Daze Challenge. Alas for Gossamer, she was ahead of them when they visit China, but she lose the challenge to Zheena. Looking forward for Zheena to appear in the 'Who's your daddy' project in Isla Paradiso.

[RainBeau]

Well, that's a shame. At least she's pretty. Too bad for her you can't turn off merpeople! All of her options will be something she hates!

[shaunta]

I knew it!!! Go head then Zheena! I knew you had it in you... Now for the interesting part to get a supernatural skeptic to have babies with the thing she dislikes... Kinda macabre but should be interesting. Congrats to the other contestants.

[ILoveDolls]

Rigged from the start, I tell ya!! Zheena stayed convincingly in the middle and out of nowhere, she appeared, bumping poor Billow out of 1st place! *I was rooting for Ellody* That would have been EPIC!! Lol

Good job Zheena.
