Yes, it is true. I am offically no longer excited about my education. I have attempted to keep my chin up and push forward, but it has been very difficult. During this semester I have been unable to focus on any of my research interests due to spending all of my time reading for basically one class. I sheer amount of data that we have been exposed to is mind boggling. There is no way I can say that I have learned anything. Everything is so fast paced that the information just zooms by. I actually have thought about not attending this coming semester. If I find a meaningful job, I am almost sure I will not return.
 I applied for Who’s Who today again. Hopefully Mr. Pines excellent recommendation will help. It is quite possibly the most articulate and concise recommendation I have ever encountered. I definitely owe Mr. Pine a great deal of thanks. More to come later. I must go to class and study for a quiz.
