Not ready to pop the comfort bubble
You are not quite ready to leave the comfort and support structure of your family and friends, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Tertiary education will still introduce you to new things that will contribute towards you eventually becoming independent. It takes time for some, so don’t worry about it.
You're Done!
Where? Who? When?!
Whoa, somebody really needs to stop procrastinating and make a decision. Very soon application deadlines will pop up and you will be left with much uncertainty. You really need to sit down with family or even a trustworthy teacher and decide what you want to do when you matriculate. Stop putting it off – eventually we all need to take that big step towards growing up!
