ode to saga:: java_warrior_princess

I restarted college in the Spring '00. I'd ended my retail career, tried my hand at office management, and decided that without a degree, I was wandering career-wise. I had a plan to do something with computers (pretty vague, eh?), so I started @ a junior college to get an AAS in Computer Science. I was fortunate enuff to have some really compassionate professors, and excelled in my Comp Sci I & II, Intro to Computers, Java I & II classes...

hence the birth of saga:: java_warrior_princess. Able to leap over complex data-structures in a single bound! Wielding my deadly DOS prompt, and a few prewritten Java classes, I was ready to do some major damage to any evil-doing problem!! I even managed to turn my junior college interests into an internship and job in the development/programming field.

jump to the present:: frustrated undergrad student taking a full courseload and working in the ubër-gig. the warrior_princess has been defeated. What evil villain hath slain Saga you ask?! f$%&#in Physics II.

This is my second go at the evil Physics, and my first battle was barely won. Saga has been scarred - Java syntax forgotten, unable to even navigate to the correct directory to run her much needed Java classes. Now, she is facing Physics II, with her resources depleted, scarred and battleworn. Will she vanquish Physics and finally get her AAS?! Only time will tell....
if you find it really disconcerting that I'm referring to myself in the 3rd person, please leave me a comment!

ok, gotta go..that damn Physics textbook is taunting me again...
