Here's your dice: https://www.wizards....d/dice/dice.htm
Roll the dice to determine what happens each year. You can choose whether you want one or two life events to happen per year. You don't have to do the same number of events per year for ever age group. It's your choice how detailed you want to be. Roll for every year, ages 19-40.
You can decide whether you go straight to university after school/ the year off when beginning this game. If you do, you can use hte School Events section if it comes up. Otherwise, it'll just be a potential option to roll later on (but seeing as there's so many options it may not happen ). You can list when you graduate to match a reasonable timeline from after you began taking classes.
