Trig Kills
So yeah, this is depressing
I took a trigonometry class this summer, I was taking it so that I can take CS in the fall. Anybody who knows me will know by my adamant swearing on the subject that I am no good at math. Nonetheless, I love programming and computers and as such, have no choice but to pursue this math heavy field. Even though the class was not that hard, by the time the concepts would finally sink in it would already be too late, despite the fact I did all of the homework, and hired a tutor after school to help me. I feel pretty dumb right now, though I knew going in that there would be a high chance of failure. I've never taken such an intense class, a new subject in a 6 week session on top of work? what was I thinking! So, I am dropping the class, but sadly I wish things didn't go so badly... As a result of my late drop and other scheduling/insurance/transfer/prerequisite snafus, this may severely fuck up a whole lot. However, not having that class, and having an easier time in the fall may very well be worth it. And I'll be taking another prerequisite I need for transfer in its place anyways, so hopefully everything works out. Its difficult to continue trying something that you know you have failed at many times before but, Edison is an inspiring figure in this regard and no matter how much it hurts me I do not want to give up my dreams for such a comparitively trifiling obstacle. I do have math-envy however ;0)
