The 80 Hour Week

Right now, I study 60 hours per week on CSE major classes and spend 20 hours per week on practicing drawing, writing and related skills to make games on my free time, while feeling completely healthy. Am I a workaholic?

@ShiraokaJinja: oo you're taking algorithms too? The struggle is real. Architecture was a pain in the butt for me because we had to design and implement a goddam processor with all 5 stages ): That's quite a big course load for one semester though - I've never taken more than three CS courses in a semester

Most of the work is algorithms, design, UML, architecture, patterns, and other reading. I only spend like 10 hours per week on programming.
