The beginning.

My name is Vicky and I have been studying Social Sciences at Cegep of Saint-Jerome. I am finishing my last session at Cegep. During my two years of study, I had courses in Sociology, Psychology, politics, economics, history, and methodology. I studied at Cegep to go to university next session. I want to study in Education program because I want to become an elementary school teacher. My field of study is elementary education. On the other hand, I still hesitate between going to the University of Sherbrooke or going to the UQO in Saint-Jerome.

Choice 1 : Go to the University of Sherbrooke.

Choice 2 : Go to UQO in Saint-Jerome.

Go to the University of Sherbrooke.

During the summer, I move into an apartment in Sherbrooke. When the session starts, I have a purpose, to do everything I can be to be the best. However, the more the session progresses, the more I feel alone and far from everything. I miss my family, my friends and my sweetheart who stayed in Saint-Jerome. I have been calling him every day since I left. I do not know what to do, I leave him or I continue to have a long distance relationship with him?

Choice 1 : Leave him.

Choice 2 : Have a long distance relationship with him.

Go to UQO in Saint-Jerome.

After the end of my college, I have fun, during the summer, with my friends and my lover. When I start university, I find it difficult. I end up finding my rhythm and more often than not, I get good results in my lessons. At one point, I get an invitation for a party, but I have to study for my exam tomorrow...

Choice 1 : Go to the party.

Choice 2 : Study for my exam.

I leave my boyfriend.

After leaving my sweetheart, I cried all the tears from my body. Now I am so sad that I am no longer able to concentrate on my studies. I end up running all of my courses and I undermine myself. Finally, I drop out of university.

Choice 1 : Leave university.

I have a long distance relationship with my boyfriend.

Even if I am bored and I feel lonely, everything is fine at university. I'm going to visit my family and my sweetheart every weekend. However, I realize that it is easier for me to live in Saint-Jerome. If I don't work weekends, I don't have a wage. Will I live in Saint-Jerome and I will study at UQO or will I stay in Sherbrooke?

Choice 1 : Go live in Saint-Jerome and study at UQO.

Choice 2 : Stay in Sherbrooke.

I go to the party.

I decide to go have fun at the party. I meet a lot of people and I make a lot of friends. I go to bed late and the next day, I am exhausted. When I do my exam, I remember nothing. Shortly after, I receive my result: I had a very poor result on my exam and I did not pass my course.

Choice 1 : Leave university.

I study for my exam and I finish my baccalaureate.

I decide to be wise and stay at home to study. I have thought it through and I don't want to jeopardize my career. So, I spend the evening revising and reading my textbooks and course notes so that I can memorize everything. When I do my exam the next day, I do very well because I studied well. Following this very important exam, I am finishing my baccalaureate in elementary education. Indeed, I passed all of my courses and my internships. I am now ready to become a teacher. So, I send CVs to get a job. I get two calls for jobs because there is vacant position for two places. I have to choose between going to teach in a primary school in France or in Saint-Jerome ...

Choice 1 : Choose to teach in France.

Choice 2 : Choose to teach in Saint-Jerome.

I stay in Sherbrooke.

I end up getting used to living in Sherbrooke. I have friends and I feel at home now. I really like my field of study. At university, I have straight A's in my course and I have good time management.

Choice 1 : I finish my baccalaureate.

I go teach in France.

After thinking about it, I decide to go and live in France with my lover. So, I accept the job. On my first day, I'm a bit like a trainee. My employers did my background check before I got the job. I also discussed with them my salary and I know that I will have a good retirement. Over time, my boyfriend and I miss our families and our lives in Saint-Jerome. So, I decide to come back to live in Saint-Jerome.

Choice 1 : The end.

I go teach in Saint-Jerome.

I am happy to start my career. In Saint-Jerome, I teach in an elementary school which is not very far from my family. There are two vacant posts. I have a choice between teaching sixth grade children and teaching first grade children.

Choice 1 : Teach sixth grade children.

Choice 2 : Teach first grade children.

Teach sixth grade children.

During the school year, I fall into depression because young children do not listen to me when I speak and I do not like teaching this age group.

Choice 1 : The end.

Teach first grade children.

I love teaching kids in the first year. I like teaching them to read and write. I know that my career will be very beautiful and successful.

Choice 1 : The end.
