Electrical Engineering
I REALLY want to get into electrical engineering. As somebody who's already studying it, how is it? What's it like? Do you really enjoy it?
Sorry. I'm really curious.

Maybe give some free advice about: School?
If you're interested in electricity and have an aptitude for technology, then it's fantastic!
It's a lot of hard work. I have 25 hours of class a week, with 8 hours of that spent in labs. I end up doing about 25-30 hours a week of course work outside of class. Fortunately, the further in I get, the more I love the work and don't mind spending time doing it! You do have to enjoy what you're doing and not resent hard work. You can't skim by with a 60%. Out of hundreds in first year, there are typically only about 30-50 graduates at my school.
I'm taking an interesting variety of courses, including classes on computers and networking, communications and electricity and electronic devices. The course material is really cool in that it all starts to tie together over time.
The thing I like most about it is that there's no end to the possibilities. With education in electrical engineering, you can design robots, work with power generation, or control the processes in a factory!
