    I still can't believe I'll be in Sixth year in less than five days. Everything is suddenly becoming so real so fast, I haven't even taken a moment to adjust yet. I remember when I was just in First year all my teachers would make the Junior Cert seem like it was the end of the world, but in reality it really wasn't a big deal compared to what I'm going to face next year.

    I guess all along they've been preparing me for this.
    I think I'm more overwhelmed by the fact that I'll be going to University next September, than the actual Leaving Cert itself.

    Don't get me wrong I'm not saying its not a big deal but I'm trying not to make a big deal out of it than it already is. Besides I think I already have plenty of people around me doing it on my behalf. It's safe to say that I'll be under a lot of pressure this year and I don't work well under pressure so I'm not exactly sure what to expect.I just think of the Leaving Cert as an obstacle I need to cross in order to reach my goal.

    My ultimate goal is to obtain 500+ points in the Leaving Cert. You know what they say "Go big or go home"

    I'm a very driven person and I believe anything is possible as long as I stay humble, positive and motivated.

    My biggest fear this year has got to be PROCRASTINATION. It's this really bad habit I've acquired over the years. Yes I get distracted very easily and sometimes I can't seem to help myself. I'm sure I'll find my way around it. With all the pressure I'll be getting, I don't think I'll even have time to procrastinate from my studies.

    Does anyone suffer from this? Or is it just me, which I highly doubt. I know I haven't mentioned what it is I wish to study in University yet. I haven't because I'm not sure yet. I know its very important to know at this stage because it'll motivate me even more. Since its something I'll be doing for the rest of my life shouldn't I take the time to decide long and hard?

    Even if I don't end up doing whatever I decide on for the rest of my life, I still need to think about it nevertheless.

    I believe I owe that to myself at the very least don't you think?

    I think that will be all for today, I plan on writing daily if I have the time hopefully.
