They even sent me cheese and crackers.
EDIT: I'm going to bring it to the MLG Providence party. ;D
That is pretty much the perfect solution.
As it is, I am stressed about taking so much of my parent's money. I have to drop out of 2 of my 5 courses so I don't get a failing GPA. I don't need food for happiness, I need success! I may have rejected their care package, but I really love my parents and don't want to disappoint them.
+ Show Spoiler [About the courses I dropped + lessons] +
English was the class I had as my last priority, which critically injured my grade in that course. Dropped it.
Contrarily, discrete mathematics was my first priority, but I was put two weeks behind due to the fact that it was a completely new concept and that my teacher didn't explain half the stuff he wrote. For example, basic set builder notation and the fact that certain values (Ex.a,b) are constants. Dropped it too, because I think I'l fail the course in the end, or at least hover around 50%.
Going through my first really hard course taught me some things. I think next time I go through the discrete mathematics, I will learn the stuff that will be taught beforehand, so I can understand his lecture, and then after taking really good notes, I will analyze them until I understand them.
Despite getting overwhelmed, I really like math and computer science in general. Once I get good at it, it should be an enjoyable career. This semester I quit my habit of procrastination, but I still didn't know how to cope with hard courses. I studied for 5+ hours a day, and still had trouble. I think I am on the right track now.
My university is REALLY nice. I'm asocial (don't party etc), but it is hard to be sad at all in this environment.

I was bored and drew my teacher in math 101 (I already knew the stuff in the particular class)
He has a funny polish accent.

And then I drew a presenter in my CSC class.

I also listen to a ton of music. My favorite is the music by a webcomic (which I don't read) called Homestuck. Here's a sample(beware 14 minutes long), which is the a remix of the best songs I've heard out of thousands:

Here is a smaller sample of their music, which is probably my favorite:

It is amazingly good. (and large)
Now, that was my free time for the weekend. Time to study for my Calculus 2 midterm for the next 5 days (minus sleep).
EDIT: I changed my opinion on the care package. I'm not going to eat it all, but I'm grateful for it.
I call home sometimes, but I'm pretty much just on my own. Happy, but kind of distant ![[image loading]](http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/167874_1717698236530_1660472246_1649930_1333182_n.jpg)

Btw, you can freeze the homemade cookies to preserve their freshness for a week or two if you have access to a freezer.
