The good:
I have learned a lot about how to work the camera. I came with absolutely no knowledge of taking photos and I currently have a decent understanding of how to make a camera do what I want. I have also gained a better understanding of angles to make a potentially boring photo into something interesting. Along the same lines I have become much better at observing my surroundings in order to find the best shots.
The bad:
One thing that I still have trouble with is making adjustments on the fly. I have missed a few photo opportunities because I took too long to set up the camera. I have also messed up a few shots because the best ones out of a given set were out of focus. The only other problem I have had is getting a camera. Not living on campus makes finding time to take out a camera very difficult.
The solutions:
As for making adjustments I'll just have to practice more and I'm sure I will continue to grow. For the out of focus shots I now know that I can zoom in on the preview screen. That will help me know which shots to re-take. As for getting a camera... I'll just have to deal with it.
