Welcome to the board JD, good to have another younger guy around here!
It sounds like you are off to a good start. I would just echo what the others said that if you are paying commissions for your purchases you may want to accumulate and buy in larger increments. For instance, I pay $8.95 per trade so I wait until I have ~$500 for a purchase, which is roughly a 1.8% commission.
