went to ritz camera today on my way to campus...they said i have a polarizing lens that filters out light but said it shouldnt really give me a problem...is this right?
or should i be using a clear uv filter? i really want something on there to protect it

thats what I was thinking - you werent given a "normal" UV filter. heck Ive shot in dark rooms with mine and I never had that problem.
this shot for reference was shot with a UV filter on the lens:
i think you should skip filters for now - you are trying to learn to use the camera properly and stuffing a lot down your throat isnt going to help. take things one step at a time - get the regular/clear UV filter to protect your lens first, then just shoot away and get as many shutter clicks under your belt. only when you begin to get a lot of "aha!" moments and actually learning to use your gear, should you move on to filters and stuff.
