You pull your phone out of your pocket and ... [[Open Instagram]] [[Open Messenger]]

You put some instant coffee into a cup and pour water. You add milk, but no sugar. [[Its not very good|Get dressed]]

You open Instagram and you ... [[Click on a puppy video|Puppy video]] [[Click on a cat video|Cat video]] [[Close the app. It's a waste of time anyways|Drink coffee]]

You check your messeges, but no one texted you since you went to sleep 4 hours ago. [[Who would've guessed|Drink coffee]] [[Open Instagram]]

You get dressed and the everyday dillema hits you again. Do you go to school, or do you go to work? Neither makes you happy, both help you grow as a person, but only one pays the bills. { (if: $isHappy is 1)[ (text-color:green)[Neither are bad.] [[Go to school and get ice cream on the way there|Go to school]] [[Go to work and get ice cream on the way there|Go to work]] ] (else-if: $isSad is 1)[ (text-color:blue)[What is the point to life anyways.] [[Stay at home]] ] (else-if: $isAngry is 1)[ (text-color:red)[You're seething with rage.] [[Send your landlord an angry message]] ] } [[Go to school]] [[Go to work]]

You make your way to school, the familiar weight of your backpack pressing against your shoulders. The university campus stretches out in front of you, teeming with students moving with a sense of purpose, or perhaps like you, searching for one. { (if: $isHappy is 1)[ (text-color:green)[You're greeted by familiar faces. Friends wave from a distance, and the scent of fresh pastries from the campus cafe fills the air.

The loud chattering of a group of students, the clang of a dropped textbook. You clench your fists, looking for an outlet for your frustration.] [[Go for a smoke]] ] (else:)[ (text-color:gray)[It's a typical day. The classes go by in a blur, and you find pockets of calm during breaks. The rhythm of student life around you feels both comforting and monotonous. You can't remember what you dreamt of last night.] [[Go home]] ] }

The city awakens as you make your way to work. The hustle and bustle of commuters, the distant honking of traffic and trams speeding past you make you wonder whether the 700 crown tram pass is indeed worth it. { (if: $isHappy is 1)[ (text-color:green)[The office is buzzing with energy. Colleagues greet you with warm smiles, and even the usually dreary morning meetings have a positive vibe. Today feels like it's going to be productive.] [[Take an hour long coffee break with coworkers]] ] (else-if: $isSad is 1)[ (text-color:blue)[The fluorescent lights feel harsher today, the constant hum of the computers more droning.

From morning meetings to the occasional coffee break, you find solace in the repetitive nature of your tasks. You can't remember what you dreamt of last night.] [[Go home]] ] }

You stay at home, dropping out of school and quitting your job. Why should you gruel your life away under capitalism. You move to your parents house. Your parents welcome you, but you can't say whether they are happy or not. You get a job working in the forest. You see your friends who prevailed surpass you in every way. (text-style: "shudder")[[[Are you happy? (Go Back)|Get dressed]]] [[Go to sleep (Restart Story)|Start]]

You send your landlord an angry message, calling him every word in the dictionary, including (text-color:red)["contumacious"]. He responds immediately. You have 2 months to move out. [[Go to school]] [[Go to work]]

(text-color:blue)[You sit in the back of the lectures, trying to not make any sound and praying to god the teacher doesn't ask you a question.] [[Go home]]

(text-color:blue)[You put on your noise-cancelling headphones and get to work. Maybe if you focus on the work hard enough, you can forget about life for a second.] [[Go home]]

(text-color:green)[Instead of working, you grab coffee with coworkers. You talk about nothing in particular, but enjoy every moment of it.] [[Go home]]

(text-color:green)[Instead of working on your homework, you grab coffee with friends. Theres still time anyways. The day is too nice not to enjoy it.] [[Go home]]

(text-color:red)[You're so angry you can feel your heart beat. It fills you with energy and you feel like you can conquer the world, or perhaps destroy it.] [[Palpatine would be proud|Go home]]

(text-color:red)[You go outside and light up, hating every puff you take.] This is the last time, you promise to yourself and put the rest of the pack into the backpack. [[Go home]]

The day's weight seems to settle on your shoulders as you make your way home. The familiar streets and buildings give you a sense of solace, and you find comfort in the rhythmic tapping of your footsteps on the pavement. The sun is setting, casting a golden hue on everything, making even the ordinary seem extraordinary. { (if: $isHappy is 1)[ (text-color:green)[Your home welcomes you with a warmth and a sense of belonging. You can't help but smile as you think about the little joys of the day. The soft glow of the lights inside and the familiar scent makes you feel content.

You take a deep breath, trying to calm the storm inside you. The familiarity of your space starts to ease your anger bit by bit. The sink is messy again and the roomate that always cooks left the kitchen dirty. You let him know your (totally objective and not shrouded in emotions) opinion about it. You enter your room for the evening.] ] } [[Finally some peace. Just a quick session of Baldur's Gate before I go to sleep]]

[[You play for a little bit]]
