You wake up from your sleep to the sound of your alarm going off, turning it off and sitting up in your bed. Your bedroom looks exactly how you left it with your textbooks still laying open from the previous night's late night studying. Your water bottle sitting on your bedside table undisturbed. You glance over at your clock and realize you had a class at 10 and it was now 8:30, giving you just enough time to get ready and head to campus. You decided to get up and get ready, debating on what you wanted to do in the limited amount of time you had before you had to head to class. You only have time for one.
Maybe you should [[make some coffee|Coffee]].
Maybe you should [[make some food|Food]].

(else:)(goto: "Loser")You decide to get a cup of coffee to take with you on your commute to your class. (if: $day is 3)[Once you get to your coffee machine, you open up the machine, ready to pour fresh coffee grounds into the filter. You pause, about to pour the coffee grounds into the filter. Your coffee machine is already filled with fresh coffee. *Hmm, my roommate must have done it for me,* you think to yourself.] You make your coffee the way you want before closing the lid on the to-go coffee cup. You decide to [[head out|Commute]].
(set: $coffee to true)You decide to make yourself some food that is great for your commute to school. You have just enough time to make your food before you have to [[head out|Commute]].
(set: $food to true)(if: $day is 3)[You furrow your brows as you reach to grab for your keys where you usually hang them up on your hook right outside your door. Your keys aren't hanging there. Maybe your roommate had moved your car last night while you were asleep.] With your keys in hand, you step out of your apartment, you are greeted by the freezing-cold of the early December air. You are wrapped up in your black jacket, having decided that your black jacket was neutral enough to go with whatever outfit you decided to have. You head to your car, unlocking it as you step inside (if: $coffee is true)[with your coffee in hand, setting it in your cup holder. You forgot to warm up your car before you stepped inside it, but the warmth of your coffee was helping you stave off the cold. You turn on your car, blasting the heat and wait for it to warm up.] (else-if: $food is true)[with your food in hand. Your breath comes out in a cold puff of air as you blow on your hot food.

After your car successfully warms up, you head to school, careful to drive slow due to the icy roads. Once you get to school, you search for an empty parking spot and park there. You then head up to class.
[[Class]]As you step into your chemistry class, you are greeted by your friend, Eren, who you go sit next to. Eren is about 5'8 and always dressed nicely. Their hair is always done without a single hair out of place.
{(if: $day is 1)["Have you started studying for the test?" Eren says to you, "it's on Friday, you know." You give them a pointed look, "I know, I'm going to start tonight." You take out your iPad to take notes.]
(if: $study is true)["That study session yesterday really helped me," Eren tells you. I feel more confident about the test tomorrow."]
(if: $day is 2)["I'm so nervous for the test tomorroooowww," Eren said, throwing themselves on the desk in mock protest. They did look stressed which was a bit unusual for them.]
(if: $day is 3)["Are you ready for the test?" It was Eren who looks up from their notes, looking a little bit more disheveled than you have seen them previously. Their baby hairs stick up from their head which is odd. Their hair also looks like they've been running their hands through their hair constantly. You have never seen them be so nervous. "Kinda," you say. You take out your own notes and decide to study a bit more before your test.]}

{(if: $day < 3)["Okay class, we are going to get started now. Remember, this stuff is going to be on your test." Your teacher says before diving into their lecture. (if: $coffee is true)[You don't feel tired and can [[pay attention in class|Pay Attention]].] (else-if: $food is true)[Due to having food, you don't feel hungry so you can [[pay attention in class|Pay Attention]].] (else:)[You feel tired and your stomach growls, so you can't [[pay attention in class|Distracted]].]]
(if: $day is 3)[Okay class, we are going to start our test right now. Put away everything on your desk except a pencil, your calculator, and an eraser if you have one." Your teacher says, waiting for everyone to put their things away before they start passing out all of the tests. You feel nervous as you look at the test once you get yours. (if: $study is true)[You realize that a lot of the questions asked are ones that you had studied. You feel more confident the farther into the test you go. Once finished, you turn in your test to the teacher, feeling confident.] (else-if: $payAttention is true)[You realize some of the questions asked are ones that your teacher had specifically mentioned in class. You feel a bit more confident than you thought you would have felt, although you know you could have done better. Once finished, you give the teacher your test, feeling okay about your test.] (else:)[You stare at the test, realizing how little you had studied and paid attention during class. You try to guess what the answers are although you know you aren't going to be able to get a good grade at all. You turn in your test, feeling dejected.]]}
{(if: $day < 3)[Once your class is over, you decide to [[head home|Head home]] or [[study with Eren|Hang out with Eren]].]
(if: $day is 3)[You decide to [[head home|Home]] once your test is over.]}You decide to stay out and study with Eren at the library. You feel better now that you have studied with Eren since you two had to explain concepts to each other. You two also quizzed each other.
[[Head home]]
(set: $study to true)
(set: $payAttention to false)Once you get home, you set your keys on your hook before laying down on the couch. You are so tired, but you still have a lot of stuff to do. (if: $day is 1)[The rest of your day is uneventful.]
[[Head to bed|Night]]You take notes diligently, basically hanging off your teacher's every word. As a result of this, you feel more prepared for the test coming up.
You decide you can either [[study with Eren|Hang out with Eren]] or [[head home|Head home]].
(set: $payAttention to true)
(set: $study to false)As a result of having no food or coffee to tide you over, you are subsequently hungry *and* tired. You can only half pay attention to your lecture, missing some of the key points they talk about in class. Eren had also distracted you during the day which caused you to barely pay attention to the teacher.
(set: $payAttention to false)
You decide to [[head home|Home]]Since you have had no food during the day, you start to make food. When it is finished making, you decide to eat your food.
While eating your food, you go to turn on the tv, noticing that your remote was gone. You frown and go to look for it, finding it in the fridge. *Odd*, you think to yourself. *I definitely didn't put it there. Maybe my roommate put it there last night. They **did** go out last night.* You think to yourself.You woke up the next day, stretching before you look over at the alarm. You also rubbed your eyes to get the little eye crusties out of the way. Once the alarm came back into focus, you notice it blinks back at you. 10:27. Sitting up in bed, you grab your phone to check any notifications gained throughout the night. Besides notifications from your friends as well as games, a Canvas notification sits there. "Assignment Graded: Chemistry Exam #4, CHE101-C-FA20." You didn't think it would already be graded. You tap on the notification and wait for it to load in.
(live: 10s)[Your grade opens up to an 86% on the test which is about the average. You could have done better, but you have done worse in this class.]You woke up the morning after your test, grabbing your phone to look at the time.
10:38am, your alarm blinks at you. A new notification from Canvas blinks up at you.
"Assignment Graded: Chemistry Exam #4, CHE101-C-FA20". You grit your teeth as you tap the notification, letting your phone unlock using your bare face. It takes a couple of second to load.
(live: 10s)[Your grade opens up to a 95% on the test, above the average. You grin to yourself; your studying really did pay off. You grin to yourself, doing a little happy dance as you congratulate yourself on your hard earned achievement. You decide to get up out of bed to go about your day.]
(live: 15s)[Thank you for playing my game!]You wake up the next morning, sitting up in your bed, and stretching. You grab your phone and look at the time. 10:07am. It tells you. You had the normal notifications from friends, Twitter, etc. However another notification stands out to you. A Canvas notification. *"Assignment Graded: Chemistry Exam #4, CHE101-C-FA20."* You hadn't thought that it would have already been graded. You tap on the notification and wait for it to load, biting your nail.
(live: 10s)[You wince as your grade opens up to a 65%, below the average. You should definitely have studied harder or at least paid attention in class. As this test was a huge part of your grade, your grade drops down to a 74% overall in the class.]
