I had a talk with my brother yesterday night. He called me up around 2AM, probably on his drive home from work. I would say that I have a pretty good relationship with my siblings. Especially since college, we've been able to talk about more serious matters such as life and the future. I expressed to him my doubts in pursuing Computer Science as a major. I feel that other people are more competent than I am.
Class is a unhappy environment for me to be in. It's just a constant competition to me, and it brings my ego down. I told him that I felt "stupid" in comparison to everyone else. In response, he tried to reassure me that all people are "stupid". We grow from admitting that we know nothing. It's probably one of the most important things I've learned all semester.
