“I’m trying to go down a bottomless pit. I’ll never make it till the end.”

That’s what I thought when I tried to create my own video game. I was young, beautiful, and I was struggling to use for loops and arrays at the same time. There was so much to learn!

Fortunately, I found the strength to continue. More and more, the concepts behind programming began to make sense. From there, learning wasn’t a chore anymore, but an intrepid journey. Going through a book about C and trying to create my own adventure on MS-DOS was a crazy Indiana Jone’s-like discovery I’ll never forget.
