Starting College Late

I feel so behind and now that I'm kind of getting out more I realize this. There are people younger than me and I think they are older than I am. They also think I'm younger. It may not only be my looks but I also FEEL like I'm still a teenager. I haven't even applied to a school or anything like that.

I want to go and I wanted to when I was still in high school but I didn't have a job, no one to pay for me, no encouragement (no one forced me), and my mom even got an interview cancelled before when I wanted to talk to someone from a college to get started. I really feel like I'm so behind and I don't even know how to start.

I just want to go to a small college. Besides finding out exactly what I want to do(I already wrote a list and found out what I think I would like so please don't tell me to do that) and financial aid, I think I'm just going to apply to the college, send in info for financial aid and wait til Fall. Unless I can start sooner and take perquisite(?) classes or whatever. I have to start eventually and start somewhere.

Anyone here that haven't gone to college right after high school (not including the reason for being ill, no offense to anyone)?
