Santiago grew into a young adult just in time. When Beverly didn't reach her lifetime wish in her whole lifetime then Santiago reached the top on her birthday. The top painter or something of the sort.
She didn't waste time and got onto the next aspiration - Master Chef. We'll see how that one goes.

Santiago

Painting away

She got a job as a painter. Sshe got promoted on her first day. Although things weren't as nice as they sound. Beverly died on Santiago's first day of work. She seemed to handle it rather well. No mourning.

Besides painting, working and cooking, Santiago also went out to meet guys. She went to a club fist, ran into her sister. And a man. Yeah, her sister and the guy seemed to get along better than he with Santiago. So that was a no-go.
Then she went to the park on her day off. Met Irvin Barrett.
Had her first romantci interactions with him. They also sped it up and got into a relationship that day. Santiago seemed to be pretty stoked. Until she got home. She discovered Irvin had fled town and there was no way of contacting him.
So she went to the park the next day in hopes to find another man. She met Adam Babb:
She thought it would be wiser to befriend the guy first and ask him to move in with her before he could disappear again. As thought so done. Oh boy! When they got home, Santiago discovered Adam was an alien. What will she do about it? They got along perfectly but does she really wanna mix the bloodline?
