Things are going great. I've began taking some great strides towards accomplishing my goals, and I think in a little while, I'll be more of a nerd than I ever was, but with a built body to boot.

Bess and I are doing quite well. She surprised me with a really nice shaving set, that promises to improve my shaving experience exponentially. I'm pretty excited, but I'm waiting to use it until I've finished reading the book she gave me to go with it. I'll have pictures of it later.

Theoretical foundations is proving to be more interesting than I originally thought. Our teacher's methods of presenting the course information threw me off for a little while, however with a little work and some reading of my course book, I've really began to understand the concepts concerning basic language construction and organization. It will be interesting to write my first language & interpreter by the end of this course.

Despite beginning quite slow, Logic circuits is beginning to pick up with more interesting material on how some of the more basic operations work. Though if I complete another truth table I am going to shoot myself.

Data structures too is going well, however we've become seriously bogged down on some of the concepts of creating a linked list. It would be nice to move on or at least move faster.

Georgia Southern classes aren't bad, however my biggest criticism is that my classes aren't very hard. They all present good information and the teachers aren't bad, but I feel like they are teaching these 3000 level courses at a level more like intro/sophomore levels.
