I transferred out of the on campus learning environment to distance learning, which provides a weekly meeting with a tutor and weekly marking. This not having a life thing was not working for me. What does this mean? More time, better meals cooked for my family, a more manageable work load. As it was, I was in school all day and doing homework all night.
All the art stuff, the writing stuff, the soul food stuff went the way of the dodo.
Much happier. :)

Good to hear you are happier.
I know that going to college online is much easier for me than going to a traditional campus.

You're very much on track, and I *am* your age. :) Well, two years younger, but that's hardly worth mentioning. :)

I'm currently going to school online for my degree in art. This is my second year of college-level schooling, but slowly I'm finding that college is not my scene, be it online or on campus.
For online art classes (well, at least for AAU), we have tutorial videos to look at for each week, then do our assignments as instructed by our professors on the discussion boards. This is VERY frustrating, as we don't have chat sessions with our professors, so if we have any questions, we have to hope that what he says isn't lost in translation. Even more tedious, we have to take pictures of our assignment and post them on the boards to be marked up and critiqued.
So kudos on being happier with distance learning than I am! Good luck with everything <3
