Yes! I am a technology native.

Born with a Mouse in my Hand

      In 1996 there were a couple of very great things released: DVD's, Web TV, Nokia, Internet Explorer 3, and Myself! in 1999 my big brother got his Nintendo and I picked up and a control and was gaming at the age of three. In 2000 at the tender age of Four years old my family purchased a gateway computer, and my dad and I hooked thing up. Soon after we moved it and I set it up by my self! We were buying games at garage sales and I was installing and uninstalling things with ease. While all of this was going on our VCR broke so i took it apart, I did this with all my toys that broke and I fixed them .When I was seven, I discovered my first virus, needless to say it never happened again. My dad up graded from a pager to a Verizon phone, guess what lucky kid got that beeper!

     My mom is a school teacher and I got to spend a lot of time before and after school on the computer discovering things like Google and YouTube! Many years passed and before I knew it I was in middle school and I discovered that I could no longer get on YouTube. Many of my days in tech class were filled with trying to hack past our web filter, and in seventh grade I did it. No, I didn't use a proxy.
     Now being a tech geek isn't always a good thing, it just means more work for me around the house. Things like teaching my parents that there is and address bar and you don't have to type everything into Google. I don't have a smart phone nor do I need one. I simply am not so important that I would need to be connected 24/7, but life would be simpler with one. However I know my way around phones, I hacked my phone and set up a sever so I could get a "free" internet plan. I have also jail broken my iPod and have had to deal with those issues. All in all I was born with a knack for technology.
