> huh. Me, too. But somehow I only skipped one, and am an 18 year old sophomore, too. Well, actually I just took college courses as my junior & senior highschool classes, & got credit for both. So I'm not sure if that even counts.


Yeah, but I skipped a year myself, so it doesn't make me feel any better. I was still almost out of high school when "Home Alone" came out, and that's a far cry from 5th grade. How did I suddenly become so much older than my own age group?
