As a teen I tried to learn game programming with CoolBasic that is a 2D game engine made by Jukka Lavonen. For some time I was interested but by the time I got into the engine's object-oriented aspects, everything past that point went over my head.
Later in university I learned the basics of Python and Java. I still considered programming hard and boring, and didn't think of wanting to work as a software developer. Everything is hard in the beginning. Then I realized that working on my own programming projects and learning programming actively could be a good way for getting a job, so then I really got into programming. Thanks to that, I have worked as a software developer in a couple of companies.
