I can relate to this. I left school with barely anything, as I just didn't have the capacity to focus long enough to do any better and there were lots of more interesting things to do.
Working was different, as I liked the money it brought and, when they asked if I wanted to go back to college to do a part-time degree, I said yes, not really knowing if I'd be any better at it than i was before.
However, this time it was different. I think it was a combination of it being one day a week instead of five and the stuff I was learning was more relevant and interesting.
