took engineering, then fucking hate it but proceed to be one

[@arcthepaladin2694]

years of hardwork, got a degree, soooo now what? I'm empty wallowing away at my past decisions and scared about continuing a future i don't really enjoy, cant really just quit, I've come too far to quit.

@@arcthepaladin2694 same exact same situation. Sunk cost fallacy grinding mechanical engineering but not sure if I want to pursue it for life :(

[@arcthepaladin2694]

@@alphaweeb5195 might take a year long break, honestly XD. Soul searching, trying this and that, start a small business, learn a new hobby/skill. Sunk cost fallacy that last years even decades are the worst ones, you realize that quitting will be for the better but you still keep moving forward with the thing you hate doing because you've already done the foundation for the thing you hate doing. Afraid of starting over and going through the risks associated with foundation building again.

Graduated & working in engineering, the burnout is real

[@kaishang6406]

Studying mechanical engineering. Strength: exams, math , code. Weakness : interview, networking, making friend, identity, finding purpose, be happy, confidence, etc. Love this song because it hurts. I guess environement of uni really drains motivation.

[@kalamari3288]

These aren’t really weaknesses intrinsically related to engineering. You can be happy, social, confident, and true to yourself while being an engineer.

[@jennyjin1617]

You’re absolutely right. It’s simply that from a certain perspective, it could seem to be the fault of the study of this profession.

[@teo-san]

@@kaishang6406 I hope something changed and now your life is better. I'm not at uni yet, BUT I will start it in a few months. The only things I can say, even tho isn't even for me the best period of my life (literally just broke with my gf and I'm going to have the ending exam in a few months), is that you should keep going, at least if you like what you're studying. I know sometimes life could be though with you but giving up is not the best way to face it. You can do it, for real 🥺

As someone who dropped out college multiple times trying different courses this song hits hard... Damn.

[@groerhahn225]

Same. Got a trainee position instead. I can learn new things on my own pace without having exams now, just doing whatever motivates me. Turns out I don't have problems studying really hard to learn new things, I'm just really bad at learning something other people tell me to learn. I've aquired some very specialized knowledge over the years only a few people in my industry have, and I could easily make 6 figures a year if I bothered looking for a more challenging job. College isn't for everyone. That doesn't mean you're dumb.

[@migues4565]

I am studying Systems Engineering, I decided to study this career because realistically it was the only thing I liked, I wanted something related to programming, but at the same time with better income and opportunities. I'm here for programming, computer science, AI, databases... but since I started until now I have studied mathematics even more than any programming language. I have good grades in any subject related to programming but my grades are garbage because 3 out of 5 courses/subjects are related to advanced mathematics. "I am a slave to all these numbers... Integrate differentiate..." I feel deeply identified with this song, I took the degree knowing that it would be full of numbers, so I took responsibility, but I just want to graduate quickly to stop thinking about math and focus on what I really want to study.

Guys, i need answers. Did Vedal actually MAKE this song? I know it is part of his ARG, but is it really an original song he wrote and produced al by himself?

He has connections with few vocaloid/utau producer (the tutel model were made/given by one of that producer) He also had some sample music before, so he's definitely has something to say for these songs, but some helps from friends is always a beautiful thing for passion project like neuro sama

@shibito5442 idk if it was just my professor, but thermodynamics was really easy for me. It was the thermo stuff we did in physics 1 and 2 stretched out.

The most important part is if you enjoy it. If you do go for it, if you dont enjoy what you see dont even try.
