I want to do TY for a number of different reasons. The first reason why I want to do TY is because I want to do some work experience for 2 weeks. This offers me an insight into the real working world. It will also look good on my CV and therefore increases my chances of getting a job. The second reason why I want to do TY is because I want to boost my self-confidence. I will do this by having a part in the school musical or getting on the school debating team. The third, and final, reason why I want to do TY is because it gives me a year to relax a little before diving into the tough leaving cert cycle. This gives me more time to think about leaving cert subjects and college choices.
At the end of TY, I hope to become more mature as a young adult. I also hope to be more open to new things. I want to be more confident as a person and more assertive as I go forward in life. I want to be able to have the ability to fill out forms and be confident attending an interview and know what is expected of me at interview level. I also would like to get some proper work experience in what I think I might like to do when I fill up my form for my college place and know that I have made the right choice. I would not like to go into a course that would not suit me and I would end up having to leave it, change college and try for another course.
My first objective for the year is that I would like to boost my confidence by doing some things out of my comfort zone like public speaking and debating and I am also willing to take part in the school musical. My second objective for the year is that I would like to overcome my fear of flying by going on the trip to Barcelona. My third objective for the year is to make new friends and get to know my fellow classmates a little better. My fourth objective for the year is to get involved in as many activities as I can. My fifth, and final, objective for the year is to have completed a project to submit to the BT Young Scientist competition which makes it to the finals in the RDS.
I think I am suited to doing TY because I believe I am quite shy and I would really like to become more confident in myself. I see myself as being an organised person and I think I would be able to keep the group together so that we would get the best out of TY.
