This January marked my return to college classes after my fall off. This time around it is Intermediate Mechanics, a sophomore or junior level class. It continues off where my first semester of mechanics left off. Of course, the only problem is that my first semester of mechanics was 9 1/2 years ago. I haven't used that part of my knowledge in a really long time. Add to that the calculus 1 and 2 knowledge that I haven't used in ages. Needless to say, I was a little reluctant to dive into my class this semester.

I am happy to report that things have gone pretty well so far. Once again, I have Professor Thomsen as an instructor (I had him for Thermodynamics back in the fall of 2004). He is a great instructor and I wish I had someone like him for my two physics classes at Wayne. He does an excellent job explaining things and I've been able to up with the coursework and am able to understand everything that's been presented so far. So far, I've done well on my homework and we took our first test today. Time will tell about the test...
