May change my college major..

Thinking about it alot recently.. I enjoy programming but I don't know if I want to do it for the rest of my life. I think i'd rather just do it in my free time like I do now.. Something about sitting in front of a computer for hours on end everyday, for the rest of my life writing code just doesn’t appeal to me anymore.. The real enjoyment of programming for me comes from creating things for myself and others, not for a corporation..

I'm thinking of going into networking and systems support specialist for windows/Linux.. I have a knack for that kind of stuff.. In one of our computer classes I created a 5pc p2p network in less then 10 minutes with shared folders etc, whereas everyone else was still reading the second page of there how to and setting up there switch.. Yet I just looked at a few pictures and had no real prior experience with networking.. That's was just the basics of networking but I caught on real quick, and it was very interesting.. I also really enjoyed networking my 3 computers at home together to share resources.. Securing it and troubleshooting are enjoyable although I wanted to throw my laptop off the balcony for a while.

I love to build computers. I love playing with hardware! Most of the time I build them for free, as long as someone pays for the parts. I built 8 pc's this year so far and I loved every minute of it, from picking out the parts to piecing it together. I can't get enough. If I ever get married that's going to be a problem tho cause I make a huge mess in the process hehe.. I practically rip open the packages I get from newegg..

Don't know why I’m telling anyone this but just speaking what’s on my mind..
