I'm getting ready to go to my first college class at Ahuntsic College. I've decided to continue my studies in Social Science education and cultures. Before going to school I get a message from my teacher telling me to find a partner for the first class. I have two options. Arthur, who I already know from high school, he's a good friend but do not put the work in the classroom. Or Julia, a girl I met during the summer who's also studying my program with similar studying habits.
Choice 1 : Partnering with Arthur.
Choice 2 : Partnering with Julia.
I am now partnered with Arthur. By the end of the first class I realise what a mistake I made seeing how hard the class looks. Arthur tries to calm me by inviting me to go eat with some guys he met in class. I have to go buy my books for my next class since my break time is so short, but I really have a hard time making friends.
Choice 1 : Use your break time to buy your books.
Choice 2 : Follow Arthur and your new friends.
Julia makes a wonderful partner for your first class. I look into my schedule and figure out Julia shares a lot of the same class. Knowing I work better alone I hesitate a bit before asking her to be with me in the other classes.
Choice 1 : Decides to work alone for the other class.
Choice 2 : Decides to work with Julia in the other classes too.
Not going with Arthur and the other guys made me realise I always have to put school first even if having friends at Ahuntsic can help my time here. Now that I have my books I can begin my semester the right way.
Choice 1 : Give all my focus into school.
Choice 2 : Invite Arthur to my house for a study night.
I now have five news friends, but I'm now late to my Psychology class and don't have my books. I realise I've made a mistake putting school second, and I wish I could have a fresh start.
Choice 1 : Try again
Working alone made me realise balance is key. Next time I have to choose a partner I know I have to be realistic about my work ethic. The social studies course I am taking is about understanding the human nature in a school context, so I should experience it as it is.
Choice 1 : I feel ready to take my finals.
I feel like Julia takes my mind off school. I appreciate that she does, but I don't want this friendship to take my mind of my dream of becoming a teacher. I don't think I should put too much energy in anything other than our school work together. I'll use this time better.
Choice 1 : Start working at Walmart.
Choice 2 : Start looking for a study group in the classes I know I struggle.
My French teacher shows me an incredible book about the life of a teacher that really seems interesting. It gives me extra motivation to finish my semester the good way.
Choice 1 : I feel ready to take my finals.
Arthur shows me a lot of improvement in his work ethic. I'm proud of my friend, and he helps me through his strength and I do the same for him. Arthur's help gives me a lot more free time. How should I use it?
Choice 1 : Start working at Walmart.
Choice 2 : Start tutoring for other struggling students.
Instead of asking myself all these question about the way college works I should just embrace the way the teachers do their courses. This way, I'll have a lot more time for myself that I can use to prepare myself better for the finals.
Choice 1 : Start looking for a study group in the classes I know I struggle.
Choice 2 : Start working at Walmart.
My teacher in psychology wants me to do some tutoring for struggling students. This could help my own comprehension.
Choice 1 : I feel ready to take my finals.
Choice 2 : I feel like I could have done a lot more.
I love working at Walmart. The only problem is that it doesn't help me get better grades this semester. I believe I should take some time off before the final's week.
Choice 1 : Give all my focus into school.
The study group help me so much! I feel so ready for finals week I wouldn't have done anything any other way.
Choice 1 : I feel ready to take my finals.
I really feel like I could have made better choices during the semester I wish I could do it all over again. I don't feel ready to take my finals. What should I do?
Choice 1 : I feel ready to take my finals.
Choice 2 : Try again
I'm so proud! I just passed all of my finals with great grades I'm proud of all the choices I made to finally be a graduate. I can now go to university to continue my dream of becoming a teacher.
Choice 1 : Do it again.
