Monday morning came too soon; a distinct bite to the air as Haruo realized that it would probably snow soon. And frankly with all the things that they had to do, buying a vehicle was probably the better bet now that they were living off-dormitory. At least things were much more quiet and they were able to get a lot more studying done without the raucous music. Thanks to the monetary funds that they had saved up, the house that they had bought for the rest of the university term came in extremely handy. And they each bought themselves a car to use for the rest of the university term. It would remain in their personal inventory when they came back for their second term to finish off their university degree.
Classes started at 10:00 in the morning and now that they were living off the main campus grounds, they were expected to be there an hour early as opposed to thirty minutes early. And yet, even so, Haruo had to run nearly all the way from the campus parking lot to the building in which his lecture was being held at. Well, there were trade-offs with living off-campus as opposed to living in the dorms on the campus grounds. But well in terms of being studious and not getting distracted by the other sims partying, well, it was better to live off-campus.
The reason for the bitter cold soon showed itself; first the heavy clouds laden with moisture moved in...
...then the snow started falling...and by the time that River's first class was let out, the snow was definitely making a noticeable appearance.
The air definitely was chilly now and River made her way to the SUB to get out of the cold. She could study there and enjoy the warmth. The SUB kept their heat on to a toasty 23 degrees celcius.
By the time that class was finished for Haruo, the weather had completely turned to a major snowfall.
Haruo did grab a bite to eat at the university cafe. His usual, brownies...well, he absolutely loved brownies. He could subsist off them.
Then, since, as an Dean's List member, he had signed up to deliver a lecture on painting on Tuesday just before his own lecture class with Madeleine Noetal, so he practiced his public speaking skills to an empty room.
After practicing his lecture, he headed over to meet up with his beloved wife, River. After all, what could be more romantic than snogging in the snow? OK...not going there...it would be rather cold.
Night fell on the campus and well, everyone went to sleep...in preparation for yet another busy day.
...and naturally, the Chikamoris went to sleep as well...looking forward to new university experiences...especially the one where Haruo was supposed to give his first lecture as a master painter.
Well, hopefully the students learn something...
