Student at college in social science, dunno what I want to do with my life anymore, wanted to be a pilot, but i dunno, its really hard to get accepted into that college, might look into like communications at uni. I work for the city, I get to do my homework at my job so im happy with my job, allows me to finish my homework in a comfy office while getting payed.

Stress, all that experience and still in high school? You should do extremely well in the software industry.

I'm a 3rd year computer science major. Wish I had done 1/4 of the things you have in HS when I was in HS.

I don't know what "Computer Science" is like in the USA. Could you give me some details as to what subjects you study, and what the areas of focus are?

Just as many above me, im a full time uni student.

My main income is poker, I play on weekends. Im not getting super rich but I made

Satisfied? Hell yes. Well, I wouldnt go as far as dropping out to make a career in poker, but I like the student lifestyle in a whole eventhough its alot of investment (both time and money).

It's basically the study of the theory and concepts behind the manipulation of information/data. First few courses focus on the basics of programming, then from there it gets really deep into theory and concepts.

Some main courses/topics are: computer organization (binary, logic), data structures, algorithm analysis, discrete structures, software engineering, machine/assembly, compiler theory, file structures, computer architecture, systems programming, modelling systems...yada yada.

In all the above you complete assignments by coding (usually in java or C++), but the emphasis is not on "can you code", more on do you understand the structures, theory, and concepts behind your code.

Lol @ how you made 'living on 100 euros a month' seem like a bad thing if you have to pay NOTHING at all, besides ... monster drinks, cigs and alcohol. FYL indeed, must be such a tough life

I wish I could get a job, but the school ends at 4pm and the busride is 1,30 hours long, so it's kinda hard to get it to work since I have to go up pretty early to catch the bus that goes 06.30 am =(

I'm gonna look for a part time job too and for the monster drinks. They taste great but yeah like 1.30-1.50 each 0.5l can. Had a different one with like a phoenix on the front I think. Like 65 cents for 0.5l xD Didn't taste that bad either.

But yeah I gotta stop buying expensive stuff and mostly the 'frikandelbroodjes' en ham/cheese croissants hehe, they drain me xD
