I am better then you all!!! 15 min, after failing misserably at a hello world I quit.

Mabey not really 15 min :p... I don't remeber when I discovered the hidious Q-Basic... I think it was in the 5th grade, my math book had sample programs in the back...
Meaningless Rambel
That started a spurt, I typed every program I could find... problem is I did not know how they worked or why :-D. I guess I only learned syntax. A few borring years of ripping apart Online QB's passes...
now I am in high school, and even though the few borring years of ripping apart QB's taught me little to nothing, given I didn't even have a foundation, some how I taught myself Action Scipting, (Flash MX, web design). If anyone here can explain to me HOW IN HELL DID I LEARN IT, please speak now, all I know is that before that time I had never programmed anything worth while, then for no reason I managed to program something... mabey my subconscience mind did something...
2004 I go into my first programming class, and am instantly bored. If someone can tell me who the HELL elected the school board, please tell me, it can't POSSIBLY be the citizens. But this year is specail, because I was now programming every day I began to learn concepts that I had not thought of, and that the teacher did not teach because (curses)... With the discovery of Math, I start working on a 3D Generator... well, I get the 3D room, I just haven't spent the time to make calculations to have more walls and stuff, Including rotation on the Y axis.
2005, I go to Prog II, and am once again bored as hell, now we have Java to play with, only thing is, the teacher is teaching me the same thing as last year, screw this, now I am playing with 2D Physics in an "Engine" I made. (Notice the quotation marks, PB is an Engine in the regards that it handels all the calculations, but it isn't any other way.
I still hate/love programming, it takes a long time to do something, but to me most things seem easy, once I figure out the concepts behind them. (And I get annoyed when I have to check my math, hence I still haven't fixed the collsion rebound error. And hence I haven't done anything with my 3D Gen, even though I think once I get the math sorted out it would be cool. [not pro though])
