My
first love
By
Sampada Malla
Recalling
my childhood days is my favorite pastime.
I enjoy sitting in my room alone with
my eyes closed, capturing faded images
of my early days. No wonder, those
were the precious moments that will
always remain safeguarded in my heart.
Another thing that I
constantly remember about my childhood
is my obsession for computers. Since
I had a personal computer in my home,
I used to sit ceaselessly in front
of my computer, exploring new things.
In those times, new things for me
were receiving myriad information
about computers and different things
revolving around it .I still remember
my parents shouting at me for not
doing my home works or not revising
my lessons, while I would be enjoying
myself with my computer. Those were
my childhood days, where life was
only lived for fun and enjoyment.
However, as days passed by, responsibilities
gradually encroached in my shoulders
.Different changes in my life made
my life more interesting and enthusiastic.
Today,
I am a teenager. Like all other teens
of my age, I too am a music lover.
I love shopping and my closet speaks
my interest. Surfing on the net is
another hobby of mine that reigns
supreme, these days. I do not mind
people addressing me as an "internet
freak". I usually do many things
when I am on the net. Of course, chatting
lies in the prior list. Besides that,
I visit different sites of my interest
and gain a lot of information through
it. Since I enjoy reading books, I
usually visit sites where I can receive
innumerable information about various
books and various authors as well.
In recent days, internet
is slowly becoming the wildly used
communication medium all over. It
has also been able in appealing many
people towards it. I recollect those
days when internet was a luxurious
belonging to acquire. The communication
booths that provided the service were
also very expensive. However, today,
in a time span of couple of years,
internet in Nepal has become a common
possession. Most of the people are
facilitated with the internet services
and are easily attaining many information
about the happenings of the world,
through the internet.
Thus, it is quite fascinating
remembering the yesterdays and visualizing
the present. It is an overwhelming
experience for me to view the websites
of Nepal and Nepalese through the
internet. Visiting the websites of
a Nepali's creation is a homely experience
for me.
I can guarantee that
my interest in surfing the net will
never decrease. Till date, I have
experienced my life with internet
and computers and I do not deny revealing
that those were my happiest moments.
As a quotation says," You are
known by the company you keep."
my companion is my computer which
provides me with the privilege of
knowing various aspects of the world
in a better way.
Turning back and memorizing
the former days leaves a smile in
my face. Many interests and hobbies
and many passions have passed through
me, but nothing has been able in overcoming
my love towards computers and internet.
No doubt, they are my first love and
my proud possessions too.
