Pretty good, but expensive. I had to buy the rest of my school books today. Now it turns out I may need an alternator for my car. :no:

^I got stuck in that boat too, with class books today. I'm already hurting because I have to pay for my classes out of pocket this term because I didn't have enough classes I could take to be eligible for financial aid. Looks like it's packaged ramen for a while for me.

Brotherman, what are you going to school for?

It started last week on August 22nd here at Clemson. I'm already behind, but I'm getting myself out of the hole.

Overall pretty good. Not sure if I'm gonna pass my math class though. All of my exams are next week, so I'll find out them. If I don't pass that class I'll probably change my major from Computer Science to IT since it's allot less math intensive. But other than that, I'm just fine. And I'm sure you kick that chinese exam's ass too.

I'm doing pretty well. And I did change my major to IT. The math is allot easier (for now). But the programming kicked ass this semester so I have to take the course back over. :x That's what happens when you have no prior programming experience, so I'll be practicing this summer. I'll ace that mofo next time. :twisted:

What languages are you working on? I've found that schools usually start people off with C++ or Java, which are two damn hard languages to learn as a first language.

C is rough. When you get up to languages like C# and Visual Basic, you can use something called Intellisense in Visual Studio to pop up possible commands. It makes programming a lot easier. I don't think it works for C, though.

Well, I'll just be glad when I move up that far. And I'm going to look into that Intellisense. :)

Will you be picking Riley Cooper in your fantasy league draft?
What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons. You're born alone and you die alone and this world just drops a bunch of rules on top of you to make you forget those facts. But I never forget. I'm living like there's no tomorrow, because there isn't one.
