A Left-Handed Child's Hobby

I grew up in less fortunate family. My life was simple, less complicated, and happy. As a little boy, the first thing I loved was cars. I can still remember when I was a child that I want a remote controlled toy car to the point that I always have it in my dreams. But that thing was only in my dreams because my parents can't afford to buy one for me and remote controlled toys was so expensive at that time. When I start to learn to write I started to love to write my name. I remembered that it takes too long for me to write down my name because I carefully wrote it. I want to write it flawlessly and not even think the time I spent on it, and my two word name was long too. I see it in my childhood that I love calligraphy up until now.

After I wrote my name, the next thing I loved to do as a child was to draw. And the first things I've drawn was shapes that leads me to create another surprising drawing from it. I don't remember anyone in my family has influenced me in act to do these things. Not even my parents because my father passed away when I was just two years old and my mother have left me to my grandparents because she need to find a job to raise me since then. And none in the house have interest in arts. Maybe I have inherited it genetically from my mother because she loves crafts and tinkering but then again I think its different. Many people have told that being left-handed has something to do with it. I want to consider this because many studies and statistics can support the phenomenon that lefties have great talents but I will not conclude it at this moment.

As I grew up, there are a lot of things that I loved to do and have the competitive skills to do it. I also remembered  when I was in kinder school, I used to save some coins just for the old jukebox machine to listen to music. I can't imagine how I love listening to jukebox machine music as a six year old boy. Right now my hobby and interests includes graphics designing, web designing, and computer programming.
