So, I've been thinking that I probably will end up going to college. I've also been thinking about enjoying my life for about a year or two before going to college, since it'll probably be the only time to ever truly enjoy my life until I get old. My Biology teacher last year said she travelled around the US for a few years before going to college and it's something everyone should do. She even went as far as to say young people shouldn't even consider work until they approach 30, and just enjoy life until then. My old French teacher back in New York (she wasn't actually old) travelled Europe for a few years with some friends before she went to college, and didn't even consider work until a while after that.
My question: Should I just go to college immediately after high school, or maybe just scour the world for a while?
It's up to you and what you want to do with your life, but if you do travel the world, only do it for a year or two. Any later than that and you'll lose your motivation to go to college.

Of course, that isn't necessarily a bad thing, is it? Maybe I could discover a magical new kingdom during my quests. caterpie;

I was thinking my summer after my senior year would be the beginning of my adventure. I'd go to California with whoever wants to drive me there, then probably leave for Europe after that. caterpie;

Plenty of people that go to college really don't even use any of it. A degree really does mean jack shit if you're not going to apply it. psyduck;

I believe Andrew1991 gets credit for that.
Travel first.
Serious discussion maybe?
Go around the world then College, buy a laptop or something to get you on the interbutt while in Africa contracting aids. I'd do it too

No.
Personal issues don't belong in serious.
I wouldn't go to college immediately. Once you graduate, enjoy life for a year or 2 without school.
Then when you're ready head back and get your degree.
