We received our midterms back this week, and unfortunately I didn't do as well as I hoped. I sort of understand what I got wrong (at first glance) and I think I can do better next time. I think it was an accurate assessment of what I know thus far, and at least it gives me an understanding of where to go from here. This week in lecture we kept moving forward with proofs, and took a look at some more examples of strategies for proofs. It seems pretty straight forward, but I still feel nervous about it all. I just don't think I have the resources (or smarts, sometimes I worry...) to actually look at a problem and know what to do. I am a bit eager for Assignment 2, because I think I'll feel more confident when I start to dive into problems. The examples make sense in class, but looking at the statement before going through it I feel completely lost. It might be time to attend some office hours too, but I should do more work on my own first to really find out exactly what I'm not understanding. Overall the class is still really enjoyable, I just wish I was an expert!
