If I only had a mathematical brain...

I'd love to program.  I really would.  But my mind isn't cut out for it.  I've seen people who think mathematically, and I'm not one of them.  I keep  getting stuck on Trig due the to stress from each lesson that adds on top of the previous lesson.  Inane equations within equations, combined with my short memory span and occasional absent-minded backwards thinking means I have to try three times harder than someone who has math "come naturally" to them.  Instead, I have a more creative mind, endlessly thinking and imagining.  I believe this the opposite end of some spectrum, as these math wizards I've met seem to be less creative and more mechanical in thinking.

I was thinking of Game Designer as a possible option, as I can appreciate programming and understand it overall, but can't do the code for shit.  But with creativity I could create a design that programmers can work with.  The only problem is I'll be trying to work in a computer field without a CS degree, and would get little respect for not knowing the details of what a programmer is talking about.

all with their own weirdly named sorting functions

Well, I'm used to write a oneliner and call a simple, small, lowercase function to efficiently sort my stuff. Then again, I'm not used to blOOatware. Same with files and many other things... I just like the do(stuff) style over the (new objectHappyWappyBinaryStreamProcessor(new abstractStreamSnafizzler(new stuffConsumer()))).doStuff(); style. Especially for building "small to medium" (< 10000000000000 lines of code) applications :P .

"The assignment for this module will be in C."
I know this reaction. Mine is rather "YAY... More power to me." but it quickly changes to "OMG the whole class will be bugging me about their crappy code failing for the next month".
