Who and what I am
My journey with computers
It all began in the very childhood. I don't know if I loved computer technologies naturally or because I was introduced to a PC at an early age of 4. Exploring or exploiting my PC has been my favorite childhood hobby. I came across the thing called Programming in 6th grade and that changed everything. I fell in ove with it and it became my dream (not fulfilled yet) to be a great programmer someday. While in high school I got tempted to hacking and consequently learnt a couple of programming languages and web technologies (HTML/CSS, PHP, MySQL etc..). This curiosity took a new level when in 10th grade I created my first website as a startup (Didn't go well).
That was the time I came across this OS called Linux and that again was a milestone. That excitement made me dig deeper and deeper. By the time school ended, I was confident enough to start becoming what I always wanted to be, a Computer Engineer, so I did take the course. Got a lot of exposure during college time, creating tools for people, learning new technologies, building projects an like things.
I hope to continue this journey and enjoy it along the way ;)
Me outside computers
There are things that I love besides computers and technologies, like nature and music.
I am a great lover of music, at least I feel that way for myself :p. It was also my not so much taken into consideration childhood dream to learn an instrument. I grew up listening to rock music so that's what I love. So I picked up a guitar during 2nd year and just realized I found the love of my life :) . That took me deeper in exploring music and I've got no words to describe it, so sorry :-p .
Another thing I loved since the beginning of time is nature. I love the idea exploring places like forests and mountains.
If not computers than these things are what I'd have pursued ;) .
[ I mentioned these things although they sound silly, because they mean a lot to me. Thank you for reading patiently :p. ]
