That's awesome! I love to meet fellow homeschooled people. When I was little, it was super rare, but it's gotten a lot more popular of late, so it seems less strange. My mother homeschooled all my siblings, so my older sisters(in their 30s) often get weird looks after telling people they were homeschooled, because, like you said, it used to be really weird and rare.
My story is kinda twisty; I was homeschooled all through school, but when I wanted to get a GED I found that there apparently were some gaps in my education. So I'm taking public school high school classes with an online school, as well as a couple college classes. I started this back in 2009, so I've had time to adjust, but this is the first year I've got eight classes spread out on five different platforms/schools and it's driving me absolutely crazy.
