Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

am I cut out for uni?

I'm 18 and studying on extended diploma in art and design, specialising in illustration. This week we are applying to uni, and I'm not sure if I should go or not. I've done well over the past year and a half, and if I keep up the grades till the end I should leave HCA with a tripple destinction. Only thing is, not sure if I can do it. Ever since I attended art college three years ago my drive has gone up and down up and down and in the past couple of months after losing my first part time job, and being used by some guy, I have this week officially lost the plot. My motivation has plumeted and I don't care about anything right now. After the first spot of trouble I got so angry that it gave me an incredible boost of motivation and in that month of rage I got a lot of work done. But now I just can't do it. Most mornings I just don't want to get out of bed. Just this morning I rang college and told them I was "ill". I don't really know what to do. I'm only happy when I'm asleep or reading. I haven't prepared for my application to uni. Sure I have a good personal statement but my research into universities has been poor to say the least. This lack of commitment is worrying me, and conisdering all the money I'll be spending I don't know if I should be going. It's not that I don't want to, I do! I need to get out of my comfort zone, and away from the support of my parents. So my question is, am I cut out for it all? Has anyone else felt this loss of will to carry things on and keep things up?
