The butterfly effects of my life and what it could've been.

I have just finished high school. I don't know what to do with my degree. I have no experience in the working field. And I am hesitating between 3 schools and getting a full time job. Help me make choices for my life.

Choice 1 : Go to Ahuntsic College.

Choice 2 : Go to Saint-Laurent Cegep.

Choice 3 : Go to the Old Montreal Cegep.

Choice 4 : Get a full time job.

Go to Ahuntsic College.

I choose Ahuntsic College because one of my good friends is here. Not only that but I have also heard that there are a lot of programs and diversity here. But I am still not sure what to study.

Choice 1 : Study Social Science.

Choice 2 : Study in Paramedic Care.

Go to Saint-Laurent Cegep.

I choose Saint-Laurent Cegep because it is the farthest from home. It is sometimes maddening to travel far, but it is great for new opportunities. What should I study?

Choice 1 : Study Social Science.

Choice 2 : Study in Business.

Go to the Old Montreal Cegep.

I choose Old Montreal Cegep because it is the nearest to where I am living. It also has a sport I am looking forward to play.

Choice 1 : Study Social Science.

Choice 2 : Study Art Literature and Communications.

Get a full time job.

I have a minimum wage salary, and it is just enough to pay the rent and food. I am also bored to do the same thing all day every day.

Choice 1 : Get a second job.

Choice 2 : Go back to school.

Study Social Science.

I study every day and have a lot of homework. I also need money to help out my family. But I can't do both, and they have high expectations for me.

Choice 1 : Get a second job.

Choice 2 : Focus on studying.

Study Art Literature and Communications.

My friends keep going out without me, and I feel alienated. They know I have to study to pass my courses, and I am missing my friends. They have invited me to go out tonight. What should I do?

Choice 1 : Focus on studying.

Choice 2 : Go out with friends.

Study in Paramedic Care.

I think I chose the wrong program for me. All of my classes are boring, and I have no motivations at all. I used to have straight A's, but now my grades are going up and down. Mostly down. I am discouraged.

Choice 1 : Change programs.

Choice 2 : Get a second job.

Get a part-time job.

I was interviewed for 10 different jobs for the last 2 weeks and 3 of them called me back. Which one should I pick?

Choice 1 : Work as a waitress.

Choice 2 : Work as cashier.

Choice 3 : Work as a cook.

Study in Business.

This program is not for me. I am starting to wonder if I even want to be in school for the next 4 years or so. Maybe changing programs would help.

Choice 1 : Quit school.

Choice 2 : Change programs.

Work as a waitress.

It is a dead-end job, but it pays my bills. The tips are good, but I still want to make more money. My supervisor told me to serve Table 61. The client is rude and it is maddening. But I have been trained for this on my OJT.

Choice 1 : Scream at the client.

Choice 2 : Take the verbal abuse.

Work as cashier.

I have been working for 3 months here, and I am still at a minimum wage. I am contemplating on leaving soon. Not only that, but my coworkers are really loud sometimes. I wonder what they are talking about.

Choice 1 : Befriend my coworkers.

Choice 2 : Quit my job.

Work as a cook.

I have earned new sets of skills here at the restaurant, and I am grateful for that. But I am starting to get bored with doing the same thing every day. I am ready for new opportunities to come my way.

Choice 1 : Find a new job.

Choice 2 : Go back to school.

Get a second job.

Since I am not making enough money, which one of those jobs should I chose?

Choice 1 : Work as cashier.

Choice 2 : Work as a cook.

Choice 3 : Work as a waitress.

Go back to school.

Getting back to school is hard, but I am ready.

Choice 1 : Go to Ahuntsic College.

Choice 2 : Go to Saint-Laurent Cegep.

Choice 3 : Go to the Old Montreal Cegep.

Change programs.

Changing programs is hard. I have been hesitating between the two that I think I would like studying in.

Choice 1 : Study Social Science.

Choice 2 : Study Art Literature and Communications.

Go out with friends.

We are at a well-known bar-restaurant, and I am less stressed now that I am here with my friends. Shots have arrived and new people are coming in.

Choice 1 : Meet new people.

Choice 2 : Drink a lot.

Focus on studying.

I have been getting straight A's, and I am passing all of my exams. I am graduating with excellence, but I still don't know what to do with my life. It's like high school graduation again.

Choice 1 : Go to university.

Choice 2 : Get a dead-end job.

Start again.

Having no idea of what to do next is okay.

Choice 1 : The butterfly effects of my life and what it could've been.

Quit school.

School has been stressing me out for the longest time. It is mostly due to my lack of time management, and the fact that I have been putting things off for the next day.

Choice 1 : Get a full time job.

Choice 2 : Start again.

Meet new people.

Now that I am meeting new people, my social battery is running out, and I am feeling a bit tired. It has been days since I had a good 8 hours of sleep. Since I have a lack of fulfillment, I wonder if I would feel fulfilled at the end of the night.

Choice 1 : Stay out all night.

Choice 2 : Go back home.

Drink a lot.

I am now a bit tipsy. People are starting to look at me weird and avoid me. I feel powerless. But I still want to make new connections.

Choice 1 : Meet new people.

Choice 2 : Go back home.

Go to university.

I have graduated from College. Yes!
