Cicerosum, you're still so YOUNG
I'm almost ten years older than you. Time sure goes by! And as for the college question, all my language study has been on my own at home.

Yes, I have grey hair, but my wife thinks it's $exy

I will be 36 at the end of next month. My only previous language experience was 2 years of German in high school. I don't remember much now. I got interested in Latin this past spring as we were considering what language to start our homeschooled daughter with. She is in 2nd grade. I remember when I thought people my age were OLD!!! Somehow, I have a different perspective now...imagine that.

35, graduated, um, a while ago.
But I work at a University, which happens to mean I get access to the wonderful library system without a yearly fee (all WI citizens are allowed access, but there's a fee if you're not attending the school or an employee).

35 here... definitely feels a lot different from 25! lol. Haven't gone to school in a long long time, wouldn't mind going back to take some "fun" courses. About to join the unemployed (my choice), today is my last day at work ... looking forward to sleeping in on Monday.

I would say both, for I am actually ill this week. Better now almost, I was wrecked last week. Hurting my shoulders with weights does not help though, I am sure I slightly dislocated my right one a couple of weeks ago. I could hear the horrid click.
But the benefit of no school is time to learn other more important things and also think, I realise today that next week I shall start inventing the greatest language ever for I have deferred it too long now.
I kicked a potato pretty darn hard against a school door, so that should answer your question about the delinquente.

35.
I often think I had to apply for a teacher's position: Physics.
Did I mention I've majored in Physics Education? No I don't think I did. I like Physics but I was bad at exams. Got good grades at regular reports in which I could take my time, but timed exams! yuk. I just cannot think properly in haste.
