Starting at 31

I had a terrible time at school. I was called 'stupid' by friends and teachers and on 2 separate occasions I had a teacher call me 'Retarded' in class in front of my friends. I was 17 when I found out I was Dyslexic and my difficulty is in retention and understanding. I can deal with it now.

I decided I'm going to finally go to college and get a degree in Engineering because if the past decade has thought me anything, that is I am a Nerd and love math and physics.

Before college starts I have already started doing refresher courses on Algebra and I'm going through Pre Calculus now. This could be the ignorance talking but I understand a lot so far and even do maths problems on my lunch breaks.

Also, if anyone has anything to add, maybe some advice on what to expect or something that can be helpful. I will really appreciate hearing it.

Come on the next four years!
