The end of high-school.

Congratulations! You are done with high-school! Five amazing years filled with memories are now over. Therefore, you are going to head to a new start this fall semester where you are going to study psychology in cegep. The only little problem is that you have to choose from two awesome schools. It is a pretty hard decision, but you got this.

Choice 1 : Ahuntsic College.

Choice 2 : Jean-de-Brébeuf College.

High-school

Ahuntsic college.

Great choice! This school is convenient for you because it is close to your house. You won’t have to wake up early, and you won’t have to struggle to find a parking spot every morning because you can simply walk from your house. However, you don't know anyone that goes to this school. You are a little bit stressed and scared. Your mom suggests a solution.

Choice 1 : Go to your program’s welcome day to meet new people.

Choice 2 : Skip your program’s welcome day to stay at home.

Ahuntsic college

Jean-de-Brébeuf college.

Great choice! You know a lot of people from this school. However, you realize that this school is too expensive. You almost have no money to pay for your apartment. You have to make a wise choice.

Choice 1 : Drop out.

Choice 2 : Find a job.

Jean-de-Brébeuf college

Go to your program’s welcome day to meet new people.

You went to your program's welcome day and it was so fun. A girl named Jessie invites you to a party the day before your first day of school. She said it could be a good way to make friends from other programs. You have a week to think about it so make sure you make a wise decision.

Choice 1 : You go to the party.

Choice 2 : You stay at home.

Welcome day

Skip your program’s welcome day to stay at home.

Because you didn’t go to your program's welcome day, your first day of school didn’t go so well. You had too much anxiety because you knew no one. You cried all day in the bathroom. You decided to go home and never come back to school. Therefore, you are dropping out of school.

Choice 1 : Drop out.

stay at home

Stop working and go back to school.

You go back to school and learn so much about your program. You learn to analyze people with a lot of mental disability and illness such as paranoia, schizophrenia, anorexia, bipolar disorder, dissociative disorder and much more. You are very passionate about psychology.

Choice 1 : Fast forward a couple years later.

Back to school

Drop out.

Your parents are really not thrilled and happy with your decision. They think you are irresponsible for doing this. You guys get into a huge argument, and they kick you out of the house. You are now miserable and homeless.

Choice 1 : Start again

drop out

You go to the party.

It was really awesome, but you came home at one in the morning, and you don’t feel so good because you drank a lot. You decide to sleep and the moment you wake up, you rush to the bathroom to throw up. You are not in a good state to go to class. You barely slept. You are debating whether you should skip class or stay at home on your first day of school.

Choice 1 : Go to class.

Choice 2 : Stay at home.

party

You stay at home.

You are very happy with this decision. You end up not having fear of missing out because you saw how many kids missed the first day of school. You stayed far from Jessie because she is a bad influence on you. However, you make other friends that helps you push through cegep.

Choice 1 : Fast forward a couple years later.

stay at home

Stay at home.

Your mom is really mad at you. She can’t believe how irresponsible you are. You guys get into a huge argument. She leaves your room, and you decide to text Jessie to see if she went to class. She tells you that she felt better in the morning, so she went to class. You feel a little bit angry at her because you feel like she made you miss class by inviting you to her party. You also feel a little bit of jealousy that she was able to go to class because she wasn’t sick. You have to text her back.

Choice 1 : You ask her what the teacher said during the class, so you won’t be behind.

Choice 2 : You tell her how angry you are with her for inviting you to this party.

stay at home

Go to class.

You are very grateful that you decided to go because the teacher made you guys do some exercise to break the ice and meet new people. This gave you the opportunity to make a lot of new friends.

text message

You tell her how angry you are with her for inviting you to this party.

You guys get into a huge fight, and she blocks you on social media. You regret doing this because she’s kinda the new popular girl.
