I was a late bloomer and did not start programming until 28 yrs which was through my degree program in BS Software Engineering. I had taken js. java, sql and really did not fully enjoy it. It was not until I had taken VB.net in my senior year where I changed. I had a project that I was working on that performed financial calculations. One day I started a new version of the application and literally started at 7:00am and did not eat or move until 8:00pm that night.(I think I went to the restroom and drank water, can't remember) I had code high and ever since then I have been in love with programming now I'm 34 and a .Net Developer for a mid-siz company.
