How can I avoid getting tired while I study?

How can I motivate myself to study?

• I'm 17. I finished year 10 in 2010 and in 2011 I went to an Agriculture college and recieved my Cert 3 in Agriculture. I want to do Vet Nursing but the course was already full so I have to wait till 2013. In the mean time I got a casual job and applied to study Cert 3 in children's services. I started Children's services on the 11th of January. But I'm finding it SOO extremely hard to study. I'm so used to be in a class and having someone to guide me. On the computer it's hard to find it by myself and to actually know what I have to do. And I don't like calling my 'tutors' for help because half of them are Asian/Indian or whatever and I can't understand them anyway. I'm starting work at 9 in the morning. Finishing at 5:30PM. going to ride my horse and not getting home until about 8:30 at night. My job was Only suppose to be 3 days a week but I've been working 5 days. After dinner I am so tired I want to go to bed. Mum always says 'just do a bit of reading, even if Its only 1 hour' But I'm tired and couldn't be bothered to fight with the stupid website to find out what I need to do. I have already done 3 tests before I even started reading the paper work and I passed them all. And I'm suppose to do 100 hours at a child care center. But I don't have time! What can I do!? How can I be more 'motivated' to study? I wish I never enrolled in the stupid course. I don't even want to work in childcare. It is just a gap year until I can study to become a vet nurse. Please help me? :(
