I graduated high school at the age of 16, turned 17 in January and started university in February (Australian). I missed all my friends who stayed for the extra year. I took a placement between my second and third year and have continued to work for the company. I'm now 20, studying part time for my final year and have been seeing someone for over a year now. BUT the moral of the story is this: I'm 20. I feel about 40. Even if you graduate early, go travel for a year. Bum around. Spend some YOU time and get the most out of life. I sure as hell didn't.
