So I really like IT or let me rather say technology i wish I had the chance to study in that field but ja the day i opened a toy jet aeroplane that i got for Xmas i was told that i am useless by a uncle nd that brike my spirit but i fixed stuff when no one see so i place the lights o a wired car with a friend named Alex and i then had a vision that i would one-day build a real car like thats like a robot evwn my toy two-way radios when it broke i installed it on the landline telephone the internal parts the mike on the make and the speaker on the speaker so that if my Grandfather and mother talk in the living room i listen cause i never spoke to people even if i walk to a friend i listen to them in the house i even had a old police radio that i picked up that i connected to my toy two-way radio to boost the signal of the telkom phone in the living room so i can listen to their conversations even if im at school,
