That's an awesome turn of events! I think there's a good lesson in there, that I wish my peers learned early on; higher education is nice to force you to figure things out, and improve your work ethic. But what you do in your own time, at least in the Computer Science field, is likely what gets you a job you'll enjoy. If you aren't fooling around with servers and such, it's also a good indicator that this might not be the career you'd actually like to pursue.
