I just have to say the past few weeks have been so great as far as experimenting with different technologies. Over the Christmas break I have been playing with Android, and as school is starting I have found myself neck deep in Flash/Actionscript, Python, using Amazon Web Services, Scheme, and it is mildly crazy, but has been very fun. Lately, I have been able to detach from a single one-way thought process and have been forced to explore many different areas. I would say it has helped me to find my strengths and weaknesses more than when I was concentrating on only a couple avenues in computer science. Anyhow, I'm excited for the semester, I think it will be great to finish things up soon. So far I'm definately on top of things, and really enjoying it, but I'll let you know in a couple of months if I still feel that way. I have to say with no exposure to Actionscript until lately, that I like it as a language, it is what I felt Javascript should have been(mostly), but the integration with flash can be clunky I've found. I'm starting to become more open to python, perhaps I will get to know it even more this time around, I've tried to avoid it up to now, but I am considering jumping in head first. As for Scheme, it makes me feel like a retard, but I guess that's part of the process. I will sum up my experience so far as, "If you can do it in scheme, you can do it in anything else easier."
