That's an experience I regret missing out on. I have been seriously thinking about doing some A levels recently as it's never too late but at home lol.

Well there's a fair share of mature students on my course so you're not the only one. Go for it if you have the time.

i made some new friends, and by friends i mean the mexican semantics associated variety, not the american.

Same. In my final year of Arts there were plenty of people in their 30s, 40s and 50s. You should go for it jackhammer! :)

ditto. there's two women in my class in their 30s, and a few more in the print journalism major who are in their 30's or 40's. never too late for it.

It was something about my Alzheimer's disease, but i can't remember.http://labas-lietuva.com/modules/For...on_neutral.gif

Im 21 and im the youngest person on my degree. Do it.

As for me... splitting up with my girlfriend. May sound harsh, but doing that opened up so many new opportunities :)

I'd say Barack Obama being elected, but that's so cliche; also I don't actually KNOW whether he'll make good on his promises or not...

I'll go with getting some better friends at school.

It maybe considered kinda sad, but one of the best things to happen to me in 2008 was REM releasing accelerate - it was huge buzz hearing one of my all time favorite bands getting back to some of their best stuff...

Other than that, getting the new job I started last year in Spetemjber, working as a teacher assistant working with kids with disabilities.

I was an elementary (Pruimary School) teacher in Australia before I moved to the states, but last year I got licensed to work in schools here, and I am aiming to gradually work my way back to classroom teaching, but for now, what I am doing is satisfying enough... 2008 was the year I got my career back on track!

Then I sincerely hope you're not wasting time and money by going. Because for many people, university was/is the best investment of time and money ever spent.

As for me, it would probably be getting accepted into the photo major. My life would have had to take a very different path that I would not have been nearly as happy with had I not gotten in.
