Do you consider yourself a computer addict? Well I am since childhood. I was into video computer games as early as my elementary years which nearly ruined the future that I have now. That time I already learned to cut classes. I remember me and my friend left home everyday to school but always making detour to malls. We were most of the time one of the few people standing by the mall entrances waiting for the opening instead of waiting for the teacher to arrive. This extra-curricular activity went on up to High school.  I will not tell anymore how my parents caught me and how I rebelled against them. 

When I entered college, I lost my interest in computers maybe because I do not own a personal computer or I just want to make shortcuts and do not care to hear the -  What is a Computer thing. My computer subject is one of the fields of studies that were on my “hate list” along with Solid Mensuration. Then I graduated from college and boarded a vessel on international voyages for my apprenticeship. To lessen the seasickness I got back my enthusiasm on computers especially PCs. I started to explore what’s inside it and had even gone my way to system folders and other unfamiliar files. I do not have a computer degree but my curiosity of it sharpened my computer skills unnoticed and finally I bought and owned a laptop and the exploration continued each day. 

Then just recently I started to build my own website under my own domain name www.jojoeland.com although on free web hosting, no rush. This I maintain by myself just like some of my work here. I believed that your interests on things will boost your learning even if there is no one to teach you on how to do that. I do believe as well, although I do not have facts to support this perception that somehow enthusiasm is genetically influenced. When I see my two year old son, I see Me. His cries cannot be silenced by candies or toys but my laptop where he spend time watching and imitating his father do the computer work. 
So I will end this one here and explore. More of myself here.
