I recently started university at the age of 26, I'm surrounded by 18-year-olds with whom I essentially have nothing in common, and I feel both uncomfortable and out of place, as well as completely stoked.

I taught college English at 21. Everyone in the class was older that I was. The most engaged and prepared students were always the older ones not being forced to attend. And they made it so much better for everyone because they weren’t afraid to ask questions and wanted to be there. You should definitely be stoked. I’m excited for you 😃
