True. It just depends on who you are. I knew someone who did 4 university 
studies the same time (all A+ there) and was still bored. Everything was too easy for him,
except being social and himself at the same time.

He was also doing chemistry (like me then) and told me he was programming a lot. Some
day I couldn't find him (we often went to a pub) and it happened to be he got mental
about some bug in his code. This is no joke.
