Kago's Story My reason is so cliche but my story will be amazing. I became interested in technology by watching an Ironman movie the gadgets he made, and his intelligence, Then I said to myself I wrote in my book that am going to be the next female Tony Stark. So I tried learning but there were some limitations I did not have a phone, laptop and in our schools the curriculum did include any computer related subject that taught coding. So when I was doing form 3 I learnt that in senior school they offer computer studies to the top performing students I worked hard to be part of them and I did but we were only taught the basics of computers and pseudocode. Then I applied to uni got accepted to do computer science, this is where I typed my first code a real one (because the others I would do them on my phone which are short). When I was typing it I felt one with the computer like it speaks a language which only I understand I was sitting in the lab typing I felt giddy, that's when I knew this what I really want to do for the rest of my life no engineering no medicine. But then no matter how much you tell yourself that you to be successful we all can't be put into action the steps we want to take to be successful even if we have the capability because I passed all my first and second tests then I sort started playing when I realised I was a natural then I failed now am home looking for second chance to complete my dream.
I want to learn how to code to thank my family for all the hope and money they put into me to be who I am. I want to pay all their debts and create a new life where they don't have to worry about money and can bond as a family without using money as an excuse. As a child, I have always wished to be one of those women seen on billboards and movies who built something independently and motivated other young ladies to be something better. I also wish to technologically advance my country.
One thing I like to do is sing and am good at it, dance any TikTok challenge I know, read novels, watch movies, organize and declutter stuff, cook, and also coding.
