I'm also wondering about this too, maybe give myself the first 2 weeks off and get into it then.
What do you guys think?

Yeah sounds alright, but i wouldn't leave it too long, because if you find it hard to be motivated like me, delaying it longer will make it harder cause you are in a holiday mood.

You need to set yourself goals which you know you are capable of achieving. Sure you can set yourself TT(superman)-like goals, but it will be harder to stick to them. Sticking to your goals is probably the most important thing about self-study, since you're gonna have no teachers enforcing deadlines. So yeah, try your best to do that, and reward yourself when you tick off a goal :P

Just do year 12 in Term 1.  That's what I did.  Means you get to have fun in your final year of schooling!
