Everyone tells me that Pink Floyd is depressing music, but I've
never been able to relate to that view.  I find it comforting.
I suppose *that* is depressing.

John, remember that many students take a semester off during 
their 4 years.  I believe 1/4th take more than 4 years to 
finish, whether it be due to a leave or 9+ semesters of classes.
Maybe you should talk your situation over with one of those 
dean-types.  They may be able to give you some advice. 
(I generally found them too "plastic", though.)  A little 
time away from school may be what you need, or if not, the 
thought of being away from school may give you the motivation
you need.  Motivation was always my biggest problem.
