Anyone else really bad at chess? :'D

So, I'm in my first year of university, and I'm a straight-B student... ('A's be darned!) and played only a few times as a child (against my mum, who, naturally, had to let me win.) The other day I was sitting in the library before a club with nothing to do, so I took out my laptop and started playing chess... in hour, I only managed two games. Which I both lost. On easy mode.
;D I'm pretty good at getting what I want but that usually has more to do with coasting along and being nice to people... eheh~

Learn the game. Know the value of pieces. Think multiple moves ahead. Know your opponent...even if it is a computer.
