Clearly, I've just started learning this language ~20 minutes before I made this post, and am still learning the basics. Do you guys know of any guides for a beginner? I am definitely willing to take the time to learn in depth :)

Have you seen http://docs.python.org/2/tutorial/ ??
Its kind of required reading for beginners.  A little time spent on that will save a lot on head-scratchers avoided.

After that there are the language and the library references
http://docs.python.org/2/reference/index.html#reference-index
http://docs.python.org/2/library/index.html#library-index

The library is ok if you stick to modules that make sense to you.
The language-ref is too heavy-going for a beginner -- other material/books may be preferable.
