You're right about the last bit, I'm really frustrated by people who say "Math isn't for me!" because for me, I love math, as long as I have a good teacher. If I have a bad teacher, though, which isn't uncommon, it's a nightmare. I can't learn higher-level math when it's just a series of proof, corollary, lemma, whatever, without any motivation. I have trouble picking what things I want to study with CS, because it's all interesting. Too much breadth, not enough depth. I still haven't figured what's best for me. I probably have ADHD but haven't taken any medicine for it; maybe that'd help. I trip over the details and I know I'll get it if I keep at it but I have to keep looking up syntax and it drives me crazy. I've liked Python because of the simplicity. But then I want to learn the nitty gritty of architecture and systems programming, and people tell me not to waste my time and focus on the higher-level stuff.
