Re: How is everyone doing?
ah, don't worry about it, bud. it's not stupid... it affects us all. it hits us all at some point or another. but as it turns out, all the cliches are true: there are lots of girls out there, the things that seem important now are completely forgotten in a couple of years, etc.
but i realize that you've heard those things a million times and they don't mean much right now, so what I will say is that no matter what happens, just be honest about the whole thing, don't overthink it, and have fun with it all. if you're not enjoying it, then why bother with it?
and if you need any advice or need to talk to anyone, i'm pretty sure BreakABone is the ladies man around here. Right?

"One day Solomon decided to humble Benaiah Ben Yehoyada, his most trusted minister. He said to him, "Benaiah, there is a certain ring that I want you to bring to me. I wish to wear it for Sukkot which gives you six months to find it." "If it exists anywhere on earth, your majesty," replied Benaiah, "I will find it and bring it to you, but what makes the ring so special?" "It has magic powers," answered the king. "If a happy man looks at it, he becomes sad, and if a sad man looks at it, he becomes happy." Solomon knew that no such ring existed in the world, but he wished to give his minister a little taste of humility. Spring passed and then summer, and still Benaiah had no idea where he could find the ring. On the night before Sukkot, he decided to take a walk in one of the poorest quarters of Jerusalem. He passed by a merchant who had begun to set out the day's wares on a shabby carpet. "Have you by any chance heard of a magic ring that makes the happy wearer forget his joy and the broken-hearted wearer forget his sorrows?" asked Benaiah. He watched the grandfather take a plain gold ring from his carpet and engrave something on it. When Benaiah read the words on the ring, his face broke out in a wide smile. That night the entire city welcomed in the holiday of Sukkot with great festivity. "Well, my friend," said Solomon, "have you found what I sent you after?" All the ministers laughed and Solomon himself smiled. To everyone's surprise, Benaiah held up a small gold ring and declared, "Here it is, your majesty!" As soon as Solomon read the inscription, the smile vanished from his face. The jeweler had written three Hebrew letters on the gold band: _gimel, zayin, yud_, which began the words "_Gam zeh ya'avor_" -- "This too shall pass." At that moment Solomon realized that all his wisdom and fabulous wealth and tremendous power were but fleeting things, for one day he would be nothing but dust."

Re: How is everyone doing?
Ah, finally somebody else is talking about girls. The one I liked, I still like. But I see that it's not going anywhere soon, so I decided to let it rest. If it's worth it, I'll try again in half a year.

Re: How is everyone doing?
Quick observation: Final Exams are the only thing that make me nervous. How can professors get away with having 80% of your 10 week course depend on 1 test?

American education system sucks and is deeply flawed and broken?
I wish my parents had home-schooled me.
Then I could be quirky and introspective like DeathsHand.

Because passing the class means you should understand a majority of the material that was taught to you. If at a moment's notice you can't stop what you're doing and pass a test, I'd say you don't really know the material that well.
I don't like that idea one bit, but it makes sense.

If you sign up for seven classes, it seems to me like you brought it on yourself.
