My computer journey

When I was about 5 years old, my neighbour had bought a computer. To be honest, I wasn't very excited because I was too small to understand or realise what a computer was. I still remember that day when I was given a special chair to sit on. My neighbour opened Microsoft Word and started typing random things, but when I tried I couldn't type more than one letter. When I got back home I told my mother about all that happened and how my neighbour could type one while sentence whereas I could only type a single letter. She started boasting saying how fast she can type. But I hardly lent a ear to her. I was just admiring my friend's amazing typing skills. 
A year or two later,  we got our own computer. My mom only taught me how to use Microsoft Word and paint. At first I used only the pencil tool. Later when I came to 3rd grade, my computer science teacher taught me how to use spray paint and I just loved the technique. And well, that's all that I remember about paint and Word. I have no idea from where and how this thing called Internet had come and how I started using it, but look where I am now. Google. Mails. YouTube. Blogging. Facebook. This and that. When my mother first created an email ID I was so excited. She used to send me mails almost everyday from office because only she knew my ID. And then slowly I learnt what Google was and how it was as equal to Hermione from Harry Potter. My best friend was the reason I started blogging, four years back. She is an aspiring writer and had inspired me or I must say kindled my inner talent. I owe her a lot. Two years back, during my summer holidays I started using the Internet more as I may didn't have another work,  and that's when I came to know about YouTube. I may say it is one of reason's why I'm motivated and happy today. It had definitely made me a beget person. The latest I've found out is about Fashion Blogging which I'm in love with. This journey of computer has changed my life.
