9:11am: I haven't had much time for writing these past few days. I have been working on physics- and nothing but. I seem to be getting a handle on it bit by bit, although there are a few more things that I will have to work on if I am to understand kinematics fully.

I had a nice chat with the professor, who urged me not to drop the class. He claims that he will do everything in his power to help me, including assign extra credit work if it is required. He also gave me the name of a very good physics book that is absolutely loaded with practice problems. In spite of his orders to take a break, I spent a few hours last night doing extra problems. I also had my first productive help session with the professor after class, and it turns out that he really is capable of explaining concepts-he just needs a little prompting.

At any rate, I more than likely will not have a lot of time for writing this summer. I have ten very long physics problems due Friday, plus another batch due Tuesday, as well as a take-home exam due Tuesday and not one, but two lab reports. I do not know how I will fit it all in! I have a feeling that the entire summer will continue in such a fashion.

I will keep up with reading friends' entries and commenting, but unless something really important happens, this space will be a bit inactive.
