So I am sitting at work, 20 minutes left of todays TA session in computer science 1. We're three TAs and so far we have had one person come and ask questions, I feel a bit redundant. But I know they are going to come in a few weeks time. So, I was working on my own programming assignment, due Wednesday at midnight. I am currently one error away from compiling, but my brain shut of and I have no clue what the error message means. We're working in Java, an language I started learning on Thursday and the assignment is to make an interactive program that lets the user play Rock, Paper, Scissors with the computer. At least that was part 2, part 1 was real easy, ' make a interactive program that takes an integer n from the user and returns n!'. Easy enough. Part 2 is more of a challenge, and I haven't even started the last part of it which is to make the program loop so that the player can play over and over again until they want to exit. That requires a while loop and a break statement, should be easy, I am just not sure where to put it to make it look smooth. I might add a ' help' option, just to make it smooth. I hope the teacher won't kill me for that.
This term is going to be though. My classes are interesting, but a lot of work, and I really need to do well in them, because I need to improve my GPA. And next term I am looking at 3 engineering classes and one English class. Not going to be any easier. I am very exited about Circuit Theory.

you're an engineer, but I suggest you to read this anyway:

That was actually an interesting read, and a lot of the ideas work for engineers too. But it was especially interesting because I just came back from finishing off my first real Java program...
