Damn. Good luck man. I'll be going back for the fall after an 8 month internship.

I loathe the math, it's the reason I seem to keep getting my ass kicked, it fuels an anger and self-loathing, which affects my other courses, which pounds my health, which of course results in lower marks, and that in of itself is the vicious cycle.

Hey, me too!

I'm going to be getting into an Electrical Engineering course (1yr) to get into the Industrial Electrician field. I've already gone through college for Electronics Engineering but there's no jobs or money in that field where I live.

With computers, electronics, and electrial, I'll have a good set of tools to work a variety of jobs.

Good luck man!
