hi!! i’m currently in year 11 going into year 12 (class of 2025). below are a list of my classes:
- 4 unit english (ext 2, 1, advanced)
- visual arts
- community and family studies
- society and culture
- modern history
i’m going to be taking on three major works which has proven to already be extremely hectic!! i’ve had lots of difficulty with things like organisation and time management, and now that we’re in “year 12” (kind of) i’m really starting to struggle. burn out leftover from year 11 is really starting to get to me and additionally, this is my first year working at a part time job. along with social commitments, i really feel like something’s gotta give. dropping any of my major work classes isn’t an option, because all three of them are my best subjects and i’m incredibly passionate about all of them. i plan on dropping cafs eventually which should allow me more free time, but i’m wondering about whether or not i should quit my job. i used to think just the pay was enough to motivate me, but now as both my academic and social responsibilities increase, i dont know how much more i can manage. i’m going away these summer holidays which will offer me some time to reflect. is that a good idea? i’ve heard that usually people just take time off for trials or their hsc, but i don’t know how much longer i can withstand it. i’m having trouble seeing things objectively as i really dont like it. should i stay and continue to save up for uni/moving out or should i quit to focus on my studies/myself? help a gal out :,)
