I should have loved electrical engineering

Let me give you guys a perspective from someone who did Electrical Engineering in Africa. There are hardly any job openings centered around electronics so the programme/curriculum is Power Engineering heavy. Most of the professors did research around this area, and there were very few who did anything in the sciences. I had the chance to pick some electives from the Computer Engineering department, but this was just during my third and final year of university. Unlike OP, I did not have an issue breezing through circuit problem sets, though they felt very repetitive, I was not bad at it, nor did I fail any classes.

I had an eye opening experience when I had my first taste of programming when I took C programming in my second year of university. What do you mean I can run a command and see instant output? Amazing! This was not the case for my electronics and power engineering lab sessions. We were using equipment that had been around since the 80s with little to no supervision. Just a bunch of routine "experiments" which I can barely remember any of. In my third year, I took Digital Computer Design (a C.E elective) and I realized I had been wasting my time learning about how the power grid in my country works. I tried my best to salvage as much as I could by picking more C.E electives, albeit not many available, did as best I could.

Everyday I wonder, how different would my life have been if I studied CS or even CE, I do not know. But, I appreciate the little this journey taught me, that you can always squeeze lemonade out of whatever lemons life gives you. I see my old EE notes now and they don't make sense to me, but I appreciate the happy chills solving circuit problem sets gave me. I work in software now, and I get that 1000x more, and that is how I know I made the right choice.
