I do have skype, my name is n1umjjohn on there.I'm actually not a negative person usually, just programming seems to bring out that side of me some times, I'm making progress now though so now that I have a grasp on a compiler I think, I can take the time to learn the language and catch up rather than running way behind like I was. I think now I'm where most of the class was a week ago when class started and to me, that's a huge gain. I've pulled out a passing grade in classes I never should have before in the closing days and that was with more classes. Now I only have 3 and 2 of them seem pretty average with the work load so I think now that I'm started, I'll be fine. I'll have questions I'm sure but I'm a lot better off now with the hole thing than I was. Really, I'm not usually a negative person, I have to be pretty frustrated to get to that point. I agree with you, I get a lot more done on a positive attitude than negative and usually that's how I am. It will mean a few more late nights, but as I said, I have a basic grasp of the basics now, and I think I'll be fine with a few more questions, but fine. If it really gets bad, the thought that I'm already down to 9 more weeks will go a long way to helping lol. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie McBride" <abletec@xxxxxxxxx>

I personally have neither the time nor inclination 2 try 2 do this via email--it's long, plus it's impossible 2 hear what you're doing in order 2 better help. Unfortunately, I'm gonna b in & out a lot these next couple days so hit-or-miss is gonna describe my ability 2 b contacted. However, my skype name is abletec & if u get skype up & running then perhaps we can do a session about dev c. 1 other thing--u should really begin considering the power of your words. "I'm gonna fail", "I don't belong in this class", etc. just implant more firmly in your mind negative thinking. I understand you're frustrated & scared. I've been there. But u need instead 2 start talking like: "this is an opportunity 2 c how the software drives the hardware (the hardware's just a glorified paperweight or boat anchor without it), it's a chance 2 expand my horizons, I might actually end up liking this, etc. Slow down. Quit panicking. & start turning your words from "I can't" in2 "I'm gonna do this & that's all there b 2 it." You'll enjoy yourself a whole lot more--& it'll make more folks willing 2 help u cuz folks'd rather help positive people than negative ones. Please think about it. Kill the negativity. Pray or do whatever it is u do in order 2 change negative thoughts 2 positive ones--surely u do something or u wouldn't be in college. Get up on skype or some other voice chat client, let me know what that is as well as your time zone, & we can arrange something--that is, so long as I start hearing some positive self-talk from u--otherwise we're both wasting our time--& as a cancer conqueror, my time is the most valuable asset I possess. If this seems harsh, I apologize--it's really spoken in a very loving spirit. There's just really a lot of truth in the biblical saying that "as a man thinks in his heart, so is he." Learn that truth, harness that power, & you'll have a great life--not because things go right 4 u all the time but because you'll have learned 2 find the good in even the most dire of circumstances. 4 example, when I stopped looking at cancer as something 2 b fought & looked at it instead as a gift--a message that I needed 2 change & reprioritize my life--I became a lot healthier & happier than I ever was b4 I got sick. So, please, just think about it. & get skype, or something similar, contact me at abletec@xxxxxxxxx & we'll arrange something. Blessings. On 9/10/07, Hardik Dave <hardikmdave@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
