Week 3

Unfortunately for me, this is actually my first week of school due to reasons beyond my control. I thought missing 2 weeks of school would not have been so bad but it seems that when I first reviewed the course syllabus, I’ve already missed 2 problem sets. It’s only been 4 months of summer and I’ve forgotten the pace at which university courses pass by.
I’ve already missed two problem sets in this course but I understand the consequences of missing it and as it is out of my control I must accept it. However, today I had a chance to review the whole course and things look very similar to the proofs we have done in 137 and 165. I feel confident in this course as I did better in 165 then 145 and feel comfortable dealing with theory and proof rather than coding.
I spent the day reviewing the first two lectures and going through the problem sets even though I couldn’t turn it in. I’m not struggling too much reading through the material and understanding it but I do have some trouble with the notations and not sure what style of proof is mostly preferred but I guess that’s understandable from not attending any of the lectures thus far. Next Thursday is my first lecture and hopefully I don’t miss on it as well. Also printed out assignment 1 but I have yet to look through it.
Anyways… I like the idea of a course log… because I enjoy blogging. I wonder if that’s the reason why my entry is so long. I always enjoyed the idea of a journal to keep my thoughts organized. It’s just sometimes I do not have the time or remember to blog. Hopefully having this course log as a mandatory requirement for my grade will force me to come on here more often!
