A moment that changed my life was in 2006 when my uncle bought a computer as a housewarming gift. I was always a curious person and wanted to know how things worked to produce a certain outcome, the computer was a curious thing to me to learn. I always wondered how it was possible to play games on a screen and how quick the response was. At my fingertips I could watch videos, video chat with my family across the world, and play flash games. Ever since then I wanted to learn this enigmatic piece of hardware and how it was basically another world I could look through. I would go online to read how the internet works, how computers are built, and overall how the future was being virtualized. I was able to take apart my family computer and put it back like nothing happened. Flash forward I built my own computer and am now pursuing a computer science major.
