Ask HN: Independent Math Study

I never thought I'd be asking this. Math was never my "strong suit", but over the last year I've really grown to enjoy it as I learn more. I've taken Calc. I in a fairly demanding college environment, and am planning on continuing with Calc. II and Linear Algebra.

My question to HN is: How does one go about doing self-study in Math? It seems, of all the sciences, to be especially difficult to tackle without the built-in support of the classroom. I assume that like most things, it just takes a lot of hard work and study, but I'm curious if anyone out there has a rough plan for tackling a reasonably rich understanding of mathematics on their own. Sites, materials, etc. are appreciated.

Thanks!
