I don't know if this sort of thing is common, but matlab tells you on what line it encountered an error (chronologically), not what line gave the error, so if you call a function from earlier in the program that is completely fucked up, the call to the function is where it says the error is, despite the fact that the function is creating the error. It's lots of fun when you're trying to numerically solve some crazy equations and you make a mistake in one of the equations.

I don't even know why I'm studying for this test, I've not turned in any homework in the class so far and I made a 0 on the last test, you'd think it'd just be futile by now.

If you are saying what I think you are, Eclipse and Visual C++ do that too, I haven't used any others yet. Lots of fun for first semester me trying to figure out what the hell was wrong with a line that was nothing but an open brace, when the problem was really with the line above it.

Dear Uni/College thread,
I am in the midst of what is probably my worst week so far in the first semester of my first year at college. I'm almost two months into freshman year, and I still haven't figured out how to handle the ridiculous amount of academic work that I've been saddled with. I thought that I would finally be able to really start working at my academics (unlike in high school, when I didn't work at all), because I would be motivated by subjects I was interested in. I guess I thought wrong. I find myself more and more reluctant to even start the readings for all my classes, I never do the practice problems for my calculus course (which are ungraded, but would probably be helpful, considering how bad at math I am). This week I have a philosophy paper due and a midterm in my theater course, and I haven't started writing the paper or studying for the midterm. And I'm planning on majoring in theater and philosophy, so I feel like if I should be motivated in any courses it is those courses.. Instead of doing work, I just seem to sit around all day and waste time on my computer, listening to music, or cleaning my room and doing laundry. The only things that I get really excited about are rehearsal for the play I'm in and rehearsal for my a cappella group. My weekends are taken over by socializing and more sitting around in anticipation of socializing. I feel like I really need to step up and kick my own ass into gear, but every time I try I end up relapsing back to my previous state of stagnation. The worst part is that I really do care about some of my courses (I really want to do well in philosophy and theater), but I can't get myself to put in the effort to make them rewarding.
Poop.

try going to the library and sitting in a visible place. knowing other people can see you makes it harder to procrastinate, and usually the urge to clean takes over in your room. in faaaact I'm going to go RIGHT NOW
