Let me introduce myself... my name is Fearless - Part 1
![logo.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUQ2Ew2bPrtrHLMTgZdCkvu3vzAZ9Z6WwpGBgijqMVeKM/logo.png)

Since joining the SteemIt platform two months ago, I've created many articles, but I've never really introduced myself to everyone so I decided that since I've now created 50 articles as of yesterday that now would be a good time to do so. I won't really be getting into too many personal details as they're either boring or depressing, but I decided to talk a bit about my history with technology and video games as those are the things that I'm interested in and the things that I write about. Let's get into it!


Before we dive way back into my history, I thought I'd start with how I got my username Fearless. I got the username Fearless from long ago when I played a lot of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 with my gaming clan USEF (United States Elite Forces). I was actually playing on a Macbook Pro at the time because my college had sent it to me lol. Well anyways, I was pretty new to PC gaming at the time and I remember that I really hadn't decided on a username. I was playing a match with my team one day and in the final few seconds of the match we all knew that at least a few members of the enemy team was hiding behind a crate in an alleyway and to simply run up would almost surely result in death. To make things crazier, the score was tied and the next team to get a few kills would win the match. I thought, "Screw camping, I'm going after them!". It was really a Leeroy Jenkins kind of moment. I sprinted down this alleyway and jumped and turned behind the crate and just started firing. Turns out, the entire enemy team was camped behind this crate. In the final few seconds of this match, I single-handedly took out every member of the enemy team in those 5-10 seconds. One of my teammates said that I was fearless for doing that as the chances of me surviving were slim. And... that's how I got my username lol. It's a common username though and I've thought about changing it, but have just never brought myself to do so. 


Time to hop back to my childhood.


My first experience with playing video games was when I was two. I remembered I was playing on an NES and was either playing Super Mario Bros. or Super Mario Bros. 3. I remember that between me and my mom having to keep the console on for three days straight just to be able to finally beat it. Damn, that was really satisfying when that finally happened. That was my earliest memory of playing video games. I also played Duck Hunt and Monopoly and knew that I loved video games at that point.


Fast forward to maybe when I was 8 or 9, I had received an N64 for Christmas when I was a kid and I really loved that console. The first game that I had gotten for it was Donkey Kong 64 and even today I still consider that to be a really good game. I got more games over time like Super Mario 64, Banjo-Kazooie, Pokemon Stadium, and so many others. I had a ton of fun when I was a kid. This was also around the time that I really started to get into technology.


When I would go to school we had a computer lab setup in our library. I think the computers had Windows 98 at the time and I thought they were so cool. I remember that I really didn't know how to properly shut down a computer at the time and would simply hold the power button down until the PC turned itself off and I wondered why when I'd go to turn it back on it would show a blue screen. It wasn't until later that I finally found out how to properly turn off a PC. 


My early childhood had so much going on as I also developed a fascination for science and technology. I excelled in Science in school and was so incredibly fascinated by it. I remember that anytime that I was get a toy that had electronic components in it, that I would take them apart just to see how that worked. I had so many RC car motors, led lights, and 9 volt batteries scattered around my room that it looked like a mad scientist lived there. I had such fun just connecting an RC car motor to a 9 volt battery just to watch it spin. I remember that I even won a 4H contest at my school for showing that off. It was really really cool for a young kid like myself. I even remember going into a RadioShack when I was like 10 to buy a solar panel and the employees there seemed really impressed that I was that fascinated by technology at such an early age.


Flash forward a few years to my early teens. I remember my parents had bought me a PS2 and many games for it. I had the best games that came out for the system such as the entire Silent Hill series, the entire Metal Gear Solid series, the entire Final Fantasy series, Resident Evil 4, the Tony Hawk Pro Skater games, Castlevania: Lamont of Innocence. I had all the best games. To this day, I still consider the PS2 to be my favorite console of all time simply due to the amount of great games that it had. I remember spending so much time locked in my room playing on that thing. It was great. I didn't actually get a PS1 til a few years after my PS2 had died (I think), but I had such fun with the PS2 as well as the PS1.



I didn't realize I had written so much lol, so I'm going to take a break and write the final part, part 2, in a few hours. 

 
Thanks for reading!
