My first computer was a Macintosh from Best Buy. It was expensive at the time I bought it. I just pick whatever the sales person said is good and my dad pay for it. I had good grade all my entire childhood and never gave them any problem with school so they didn't give me any hard time when I ask for my first computer.
They didn't require me to share my computer because I solely earned the rights to have it all to myself with my hard work. But I did share it with my siblings. I wasn't one of those that got stuck on a desktop either, I participate with outside activities and kept myself physically active at the time. Just like Happy, I self taught everything on my own with the internet help. Mistakes will be made but it's all good life experience. Good old times where most of the responsibility is with the parents and I just worry about school only, like they said to me as I was growing up.
I didn't have much of my own judgment as a child, I do everything my parents tell me to do. I always believe what they said is the right way. It makes me want to cry when I revisit the past of me not obeying them.
I hate being a bad kid and all the times I talked back to them, I just want to go back and make it better. Give them a better memories of me. Parents aren't always right, but its my job to have them feel that way no matter what. Having my own opinion on things wasn't suppose to happen between us. They should never see that sides of me.
Being an adult makes me realized how stressful it is to maintain a living as parents at those times. I would never ask better of them if I have a chose to change the past. It's what it is, they made me the person that I am now and I liked the present me. Always motivated to better myself and stand up when I fall down. Never stop trying.
