The reason I became an engineer

Ever since I was still 10 years old, I began programming with BASIC language, and cherished a dream to become a programmer. Back in junior high and in high school, I created several games within the poor computer specs at that time. These games included a role-playing game where a player fight monsters in a dungeon, and baseball simulation games in both round-robin and tournament matches, similar to Japanese professional baseball and high school baseball systems. After graduation from school, I have been creating Excel VBA tools at work for more than 10 years, and these tools made a great contribution to our team's operational efficiency. Also in my free time, I have been studying programming as a hobby, and creating different kinds of tools and games. I sometimes feel I can devote myself to programming like forever, as if I were destined to be a programmer by profession.
