Okay, I am getting ready to sit down and teach myself Java. Does anyone have any pointers for me? I’m working on getting a job with EA Games/Tiburon, and the lady that I’ve been speaking with keeps telling me to learn Object Oriented Programming. As soon as I learn that, they’re interested in me! So I am studying as hard as possible to learn because I want a job there so badly!

So is OOP difficult to pick up? I know the basics with Methods and Variables and Attributes and whatnot…it just seems very daunting to me right now…not to mention there’s alot of pressure becaues I REALLY want this job!
