I'm almost 25, and I haven't finished yet. I'm absolutely dying to get back into school, the real world tends to suck.

My sis-in-law is applying to grad schools, because she's terrified of the real world. She's a senior this year, and she says she'll do anything to avoid being out of school.

My husband is in grad school, not because he's avoiding real life, but because he wants to further his education. After this is finished, he's even talked about going to law school. I think it's great that he's so interested in school, and I've told him that he can stay in school as long as he wants, as long as he's done before we start having kids.

Some people aren't cut out for college, and rush to get out. Some are afraid of the real world and stay in school to avoid it. Some love school, and would be lifetime students if they could be. Everyone's different, and there's no shame in any of those choices.
