After a long time I took my sim to university. I forgot how insane the performance bar is! If the sim is not currently studying the bar keeps going down!

So being a gardener is must have for uni student because wonderpetal herb will boost the studying

Sims put on a cowboy costume when riding the rodeo bull.

The bar also goes up while you are working on a skill for that specific degree. Like if you are working on charisma and are there for a business degree, your performance goes up. You may end up getting a bigger boosts from upping a skill related to the major rather than studying. Luckily the bar is frozen on the weekend so you can do other things like meet people- or ignore people and work on other skills.

Thanks I will try this!

I discovered that ghosts appear to enjoy fireworks. I let one off at the cemetery in Sunset Valley and earned 20 simoleons. The question is, where did the money come from? 'Dead money' I suppose. Seems like you actually can take it with you.

Trees randomize their height when placed. :o

Edit. I have a rebellious Sim who rolled a want to start a protest. As I scheduled it, I was impressed by the cross-pack compatibility. You can protest against things that comes in expansion! Sims 4 could never.

Edit2. Found something incredible. When you text a Sim, that Sim actually reacts as if he got a text: checking their phone, cheering and thinking of your Sim. It's such a nice detail.

Edit3. First time I ran into "trait incompatibility". My Sim's descendant is a Coward, while my Sim is Brave. They completely fell out when they met. Arguing over their traits and giving each other annoyed looks. I didn't know that was a thing. It's kinda fun.
