Yeah, I have a bit of the same thing. I wanted to be a teenager when I was one, but between not a soul being attracted to me, and really not having any friends who went out and partied, there wasn't much to do but track, cross-country, plays and school. I remember getting to college, and realizing that getting into the best school I could was my goal for so long that I didn't know what to do now. (that feeling lasted about 2 days before I found new goals).
But the letting your hair down you're doing now really is a 20-something 30-something thing. Or at least appears it if you look around at most 25 year olds.
But yeah, I couldn't even be as much of a geek as I wanted to be in high school, I didn't have friends who "gamed" or role-played. So, I'm finally letting out my inner nerd. Now that's what I call scary.
