The beginning of my messy life.

From as far as I can remember, my dream was to be able to pursue my studies at the Colombia University in New York. Right now, I am living in Montreal with my family, and my boyfriend, so u can tell that New York is far away from my home. This is the issue. My boyfriend is staying in Montreal for his studies and I'm leaving, so what should we do?

Choice 1 : We break up.

Choice 2 : We are trying a long distance relationship.

We break up.

We had to break up... I'm devastated, but I have to move on, and try to be happy in order to succeed my studies, and be able to reach my dream job. The first thing to do now is to find myself a roommate because I can't afford to live alone in the city of New York. Lucky as I am, I only found two potential roommates, but both of them are not what I wished for. Which one should I choose?

Choice 1 : A guy that I never met before.

Choice 2 : A girl that intimated me in high school.

We are trying a long distance relationship.

We decide that we would try to be in a long distance relationship. It's been 3 weeks since that decision was made, and for now, it is working pretty well. Today, is my first day at Colombia University, and my English teacher is making little smirk, and winks in my direction. It is only the beginning of the semester, and he is doing such a thing. What will it be at the end of the semester? What should I do?

Choice 1 : Change my schedule to no longer be with this teacher.

Choice 2 : Take a breath, and relax. It's just a wink.

A guy that I never met before.

I chose this guy after meeting him in a coffee shop. He seems organized, and I think that he would be the kind of guy who pays his rent in time. Speaking of rent, I have to find myself a part-time job to be able to pay it too.

Choice 1 : At the pizzeria close to my apartment.

Choice 2 : In a big Business company who needs an assistant.

A girl that intimated me in high school.

I chose her because I think it is safer to live with someone you already know. I decided that I would not think about the past, so I forgave her, and now we are slowly becoming best friends. Tonight there is a party, and she wants me to come with her, but I have so much work to do. I'm confused.

Choice 1 : Go to the party. My work can wait.

Choice 2 : Continue studying.

Change my schedule to no longer be with this teacher.

I decided to change my schedule in order to avoid problems. It was early in the semester, so the change of class was not complicated. In my new class, there is a guy who is so cute, and so sweet to me. Yesterday, he asked me if I wanted to go out with him, and I told him that I would think about it. I do not want to feel another heartbreak, but at the same time, he seems perfect for me. What should I do?

Choice 1 : Go on a date with him.

Choice 2 : Apologize and tell him that I can't.

Take a breath, and relax. It's just a wink.

Finally! I'm done studying! I can focus on my dead-end job by getting a foot in the door. It's been three weeks since I started my on-the-job-training. My favorite part about it is that I earn a wage even if I am just a trainee. The Human Resources (HR) ask me to help them decide what they should do in order to see if I could handle this responsibility by myself. I have to hire someone to fill a vacant position in the company.

Choice 1 : Help them. It will show them that I could be a good employee.

Choice 2 : Tell them that I don't want to do it. It's not my job.

At the pizzeria close to my apartment.

This could be a good idea, but the salary is not enough to pay my rent, and my other expenses.

Choice 1 : Go back

In a big Business company who needs an assistant.

It's been three months since started this shitty job. I'm tired of it. They give me nasty work like cleaning the bathrooms, and emptying the trash. I want change.

Choice 1 : Go on a trip to Bali.

Choice 2 : Start looking for my dead-end job.

Go to the party. My work can wait.

The party could be fun, but it is time to concentrate on my studies in order to pursue my dream.

Choice 1 : Go back

Continue studying.

This was the right thing to do. Should I focus on my final analysis due tomorrow or study for my big exam which is in two days?

Choice 1 : Final analysis

Choice 2 : Studying my big exam

Go on a date with him.

The date night went pretty well. We agreed on almost everything about what we wanted in the future. It's been almost six months since the date night, and we've been together for four months now. I don't want to cause a scene, but I think I have a problem. My job asks me some leg work because the woman that was supposed to do it is sick. That means that I have to travel for an undetermined time without my boyfriend because he has to stay in New York for his job. What should I do?

Choice 1 : Tell my job that I refuse to do the leg work to stay with my boyfriend.

Choice 2 : Go for the leg job.

Apologize and tell him that I can't.

I think I can deal with a boyfriend. I am working hard right now, so it can allow me to take a break sometimes.

Choice 1 : Go back

Help them. It will show them that I could be a good employee.

For two weeks, I helped them a lot. I was fun because we had a good chemistry, and working together was not a problem. Our boss saw us one time, and note that we were working well, and that I could easily handle the work. About two weeks later from that day, my boss asked me to come to his office. I had no idea, at that time, that I was going to come out of the office with a big smile on my face. He had just offered me an important position in the company. I was so happy! Should I take this opportunity?

Choice 1 : Yes.

Choice 2 : Yes. Again. I don't want to miss that.

Go on a trip to Bali.

I decided to volunteer abroad, in Bali. I went there with a group of friends, and we decided to help the community a little bit. We did what was possible for us, like planting trees, visiting the orphans in order to distract them from their misfortune, giving clothes and toys for free to the kids in the streets, etc. When I arrived in Bali and saw the bed that I was supposed to sleep in, I started to be skeptical about the rest of my trip, but later on, when I saw the joy on the children's face as I give them toys, I remember that the purpose of my trip wasn't for myself to relax, but to make a difference. It was the most invaluable thing that I did in my entire life. Should I go back to work now?

Choice 1 : Go back to work.

Choice 2 : Stay home, and do nothing but eat, and sleep.

Start looking for my dead-end job.

I was looking for my dead-end job over the internet, and this is generally what I would have to do in the kind of job that I want. First of all, the people who work in HR have the responsibility of finding all the vacant positions in the company. When this is done, they have to fill these positions, so they have to do interviews in order to hire the right person. When that person is found, they can start talking about salary and vacation, for example. This is not the only thing that I would have to do in HR. There are many other responsibilities that need to be accomplished too. Should I apply for this job even if I already have a good job? Unlike the job I have now, this new job could really help me reach my goal.

Choice 1 : Yes.

Choice 2 : No.

I'm continuing the good work. Everything is going well.

It was really wise to come back to work. Now, I know that I'm young but do you think I should start to put some money aside for my retirement?

Choice 1 : Put money aside.

Choice 2 : Retirement is far from now, so there is no need to do that.

Tell my job that I refuse to do the leg work to stay with my boyfriend.

I'm sorry, but the boyfriend is less important than a good job that can lead me to my dream job.

Choice 1 : Go back.

Go for the leg job.

I went for the leg job, and didn't like it. I like to be in my comfort zone, and when I know what I'm doing. Since I did this leg work that nobody else wanted to do, my colleagues helped me find a job that would fit me better. We found one, but now I am sad to leave them. They were so nice to me, I'm going to miss them so much.

Choice 1 : Next.

Yes.

I started this job one year ago from now, and I really like what I'm doing. I'm good at what I do, and my colleagues, and I are working well together. I think I found the job that fits me perfectly, and I'm so happy about that.

Choice 1 : Next.
