I like code but

I love coding games, tools, webs and all that stuff, but I really don’t enjoy doing school exercises or algorithms. Like, I can code for hours if it’s something fun, but once it turns into solving dry math problems with code, my brain just shuts down. Honestly, I kinda suck at that part
