My life as a future lawyer.

Choice 3 : Take a year off.

My house

Go to party one last time with my classmates.

Choice 1 : Stay at home.

The party

Accept Ottawa's university offer in law.

I decide to accept Ottawa's university offer in law, and I am mentally preparing myself on being far from home for a long period.

Choice 1 : Do the interview.

Choice 2 : Skip the interview.
