-"A choice comes down to weighing your options.

Needs....

Passion....

As well as experience...

After considering all the options, the scale will tip to the heavier side."-

The process of writing paused momentarily.

Olivia's eyes flickered a bit, she looked at the computer, seemingly hesitating wether to continue writing. After a while, she pressed the keyboard and once again started to write.
