Hello World

Wed, 11 Apr 2012 21:41:00 -0700

Hello World was the very first program that I wrote in my C++ class during college. I thought that this would also be the best title of my first blog entry on Tumblr. Ever since a young age, I always had been a dreamer. I used to watch this anime titled Voltron and Daimos. I was so fascinated and wanted to become an engineer, scientist, and inventor. In my mind, I wanted to build one of those humongous robots. Fast forward to the future, I still had that sense of fascination with technology. I wanted to become both and engineer and doctor, which were quite different. My desire to become both was not to complement each other but just to be both. I did end up starting my pre-med classes. However, due to situations beyond my control, I ended up taking computer engineering.

I learned a lot, and my day-dreaming progressed. I was introduced to Mac OS X and Apple computers; I fell in love with them. I loved how beautiful they are and at the same time very functional. Ideas kept sprawling up in my head. The iPhone was introduced, and that moment was amazing. The ideas in my head exponentially grew.

Not until recently have I had the real intense desire to just do it. The talk by Jack Dorsey at Stanford was one of the stimuli for me to just go and do it. He mentioned in the talk that he had ideas, and he had to get it out of his head to see it on a surface that is not the mind. (You can watch the whole talk here: http://ecorner.stanford.edu/author/jack_dorsey) This blog is my way of doing that. I am not sure what the content of this blog will be but I hope it would be of help to someone, someday.
