Journal # 16

The semester is coming to an end, and some very important choices have to made. It is the time of the year when everyone’s stress levels begin to rise. University applications are due in the middle of January. Throughout our highschool careers our teachers have been trying to guide us and prepare us for university or college. I never tried to worry about university and stress myself over the issue. Saying that I went through highschool not really caring about school as much as I should have. Now I am in my final year of highschool not sure what it is that I want to pursue. There is always the option of coming back for another year, but I think I will regret that in the long run.
Another thing is I am not sure if I am mature enough to go to university. I think that if I smartened up, and really worked hard next semester I think I could mature enough for university. My main problems are time management and organization, and these are big problems. I find I have gotten better with these problems, but I still have to man up and tackle them head on if I want to be successful in the future. If I get accepted to university I think I would decide to take the leap and take on university. I have always loved the idea of becoming a teacher, and many people have told me they could see me doing that. So that is always a path I can take down the road.
