"I'm 23 and still in high school so no big deal."

Explain.
I am nineteen in alternative, you might as well get your GED.

I'm 38 and starting college after Christmas. I'm hoping this time it'll be 3rd time lucky and I'll actually make it to the finishing post.

whaa, they let you attend highschool at that age? Man, I keep having these weird dreams where I'm my age (currently 23) among a bunch of 16 year olds, only to find out that I missed a bunch of classes and am really far behind in work and won't be able to graduate.

That was part of what slowed down my progress. I was able to take fewer classes at a time and finish the last courses for an AA finally when I was 29.
