I enjoy writing code because I love computers. The ability to give the computer instructions that it will eventually understand and execute is the exact kind of empowerment I have sought out since I first touched MS-DOS at 4 years old. Unfortunately, the hobby was never discouraged by my parents (constantly told to get off the computer because I was "melting my brain", being heavily pushed towards business and law related subjects etc.). Although I can't entirely blame them, the result was I lost interest around high school. I didn't rediscover my passion until about my Junior year of college (thanks to Skyrim modding, honestly). I'm here now, and I love it. I'm currently learning C and I look forward to playing catchup with everyone who had a real head start.
