I'm still a student, studying computerscience and I'm almost finished. The problem is, my fun in computerscience is simply limited, sometimes it really makes a lot of fun. Sometimes it doesnt (Majority, since I am really unmotivated). Now. The problem is, I don't have anything I'd consider to do for the rest of my life. Was totally clueless after graduating from school and I'm still unsure. This just doesnt sound like a good future, but I really cant figure.
For now I'll just graduate from university. Any Advice?

Getting passionate about something is weird. You can't make yourself do it. You can only discover it. The only way to discover something is to get off the sofa and go looking for it.
Edit: and for what it's worth, I found "computer science" as taught at university the most boring subject known to man-kind. For a lot of university courses, it's the antithesis of "hacking". I love making things and software presents us all with a creative canvas where the only really hard limits are our imaginations and in some cases, access to raw data. I dropped out of university after 2 years yet here I am nearly 12 years later at the peak of my game thus far and I enjoy the fact I still have a lot to learn and the field still has seemingly endless challenges to tackle.
