For a 15 year old, you know what you're talking about. Honestly, that's something I regret the most. I joined the USAF immediately after graduating HS and I'm proud of what I've done and who I am today and I've learned so much yadda yadda yadda... but I regret not going to college after HS. My friends in college (i'm 21) seem to be living the life while I forced to cut my hair and shave my face everyday. I was forced to grow up and I feel like I missed out on the college lifestyle, an important part of life.

So yeah, get your PPL on your own money and go to college after HS. Don't try to accelerate growing up. It's not as fun as it sounds.

PS, I regret missing out on college so much that I am joining the AF Reserves in August to move in with my friends in college and to go to school full time. THATS how awesome it is, don't miss out.
