Need Advice on whether or not to stick doing the leaving cert living on my own

    I am currently living on my own in Dublin. Repeating the Leaving Cert. I am in school from 8.45 in the morning to 7.15 in the evening. I lived on my own last year, doing a PLC, though I found it easier to manage living independently as the course was not nearly as time demanding. Also I stayed in diggs so I got evening meals.

    This year however it's a lot more difficult to get organized as I had to choose cheaper accommodation to ensure I could afford to stay in Dublin for the year, and food and washing up is difficult to manage with 7 subjects along with work and grinds on the weekends. I feel like I should stick to it, stop complaining and "man up" as they say.

    Though I sometimes wonder is it ultimately more sensible to move back home and do grinds there instead or maybe should I just wait a bit longer to see if I can adapt more efficiently to this routine? This was the reason why I choose to live in Dublin again this year by the way. To force myself to get more disciplined. But is it really worth it if I may end up sacrificing points.



    Any advice, is much appreciated.
