One of the things I give much importance to is learning, I love learning so much and I can't just do without it. I also believe learning never ends.
When I was still very young, I use to love operating computer systems, it has always been my thing right from primary school, I attended a government primary school and so we had a part-time teacher who only comes around twice in a week. Seeing a computer back then was like seeing a gold or diamond. And then when we have a chance to press it, it will be like a dream come true, like heaven on earth.
Our computer teacher would take us class by class into the computer laboratory at once, and we have like three arms per class, which the lowest number of pupils was over thirty meanwhile with just few computer that's less than twenty. So if you have a chance to press the system, just consider yourself very lucky.

Due to my love for computer, I always made sure that I top the class whenever it comes to that subject, even if I'm not doing too well with other subjects, I made it mandatory for myself that I must do well in computer studies, this also made the teacher to like me specially and I was enjoying special treatment. Sometimes he do allow me to enter the lab so as to practice what we've been thought.
Unfortunately after primary school, on getting to secondary school, I also went to a government school, but this time, there was no provision for computer studies teacher, it's painful but I don't have a choice. Despite this I didn't give up on learning computer, thankfully I had an elder brother who has computer system at home, so he do teach me whenever he's around.
During this periods people do tell me that I should try go to science class when it's time to select one in senior secondary school. So I did, coupled with the fact that I love science already and then maybe they already saw the scientist in me, my passion for science.

After secondary school, I tried to learn one or two things about computer system but it didn't go well due to some reasons, but luckily for me, I gained admission into the university to study computer science, it was a dream come true, because it's what I've always wanted.
I tried as much as I can to face my studies like my parent would always tell me whenever I'm going to school, because my school is far to where we live, it's in another state entirely.
My parent will always tell me to know the child of whom I'm, to face my studies squarely which I tried my best to do, I'm glad I didn't disappoint them at the end, I came out with flying colours, with good grades.
I completed my national youth service corp program and then luckily for me I got a government job as a teacher to teach computer science. It's another joy that I have the chance to teach the younger generations what I love to do best. Everything was just falling in pleasant places.
After some time, I also get to know about hive, I found hive interesting because making use of my phone and computer system is already what I do almost all the time.

I would strongly advice that kids should be exposed to learning things that will help them later in future, in their adulthood. What I've been learning since I was a kid is what I'm using to feed myself and family now. Learning is a very good thing, I think everyone should find one or two things to learn and shouldn't stop learning.
