All right, I've completed half of my sim's young adulthood. Here's what I've done so far.
Play journal:https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8752/17268872382_0248693cd3_z.jpgMeet Ren Tenny. Perfectionist, food, slob with a Big Happy Family aspiration. His appearance is completely random, I'm more concerned with play than how they look.

Whims complete: 0Day 2: Had a wish to buy a toy, I got him some clay; it Inspires sims. Because of that he wished to go the the museum. Goody, I can't stand a hermit sim. He met some people, no friends yet. Bought him back home, he cooked and wished to go out to the museum again. This time I took him to the Willow Creek museum. There he met Tessa Ten (my previous test sim). They were fast friends.
Whims completed: 13https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8717/16650387493_813de94802_c.jpgDay 3: Bought him an easel. Planted some sage (those will die, they alway do). Gave him 1x1 pool, he-um-swam? Tessa visited. I hit the
first 20 whims, took that opportunity to level up on his aspiration by spending 1,000 simoeleons on kids stuff. Got a Victorian Doll House. And finally got him to clean.
Whim completed: 14https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7670/17063188937_d90f966ec8_c.jpgDay 4: I went to sleep. Yes, I'm talking about myself, not the sim. He got a promotion anyway.
Whims completes: 6https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7666/16650367893_cc4cb04ea3_c.jpgDay 5: Tessa came by for a swim. He went to the gym. I guess sports tv got him in the mood for some pump action. He made another friend named Kian Cornett. Talked to some other sims, but no more new friends. The
40th whim was completed but I completely missed it. I don't think I'd had enough time to do anything with it anyway. Upgrade the pool.
Whims completed: 12https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7689/16650414123_66b42df2e7_c.jpgDay 6: Tessa came by (again). Kian made his first visit. Fridge broke.
Whims completed: 13https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8751/17270573315_37a36ffe4c_c.jpgDay 7: I let him do whatever he wanted. Full autonomy for the work day. Made him work hard at work, returned home tense.
Hit 60th whim, he was at half energy. I made him clean the house.
Whims completed: 2Day 8: I let him sleep in. It was a work day. He was low in the Fun needs, so he watched tv. Couldn't do much since the day started late and again it was a work day.
Whims completed: 3https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8822/17084421479_e4de00856a_c.jpgDay 9: He still hasn't recovered from working hard the other day. He's still tense. Spent a good amount of time in the mirror, calming himself. Too tired to do anything, so I let him watch tv.
Whims completed: 8Day 10: Not sleeping enough to completely fill his energy bar. Full autonomy, sometimes sims are better at regenerating themselves than you are. He went to work in a good mood and got promoted to Caterer.
Whims completed: 2https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7601/17063246837_7a53b18aff_h.jpgTotal whims completed: 73Thoughts: I would have never chosen the slob trait for my sim. I don't care much for a messy environment. But for this challenge I found it to be a benefit, my last 2 test sims spent a great amount of time uncomfortable. Sims aren't the neatest bunch, they don't look after they're environment unless they have the proper traits or when the junk gets to unbearable for them. And if it gets down to that, they'll do the bare minimum.
https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8763/17084377079_264303452c_c.jpgRen has only completed 1 level of his aspiration. That's actually impressive, but all he had to go was by an expensive toy and be an adult. The 2nd level is a lot more challenging and so far, he's done nothing to complete even 1 task. I prefer for him to find his own mate but the opportunities are few. And when he comes across one, he's a bit gun shy. I'm about 27 whims away from 100. If you he doesn't find somebody or bust a move on Tessa by then, I may be forced to take matters into my own hands.
