Naturally as a child I craved knowledge. I don't know why but the feeling was just there.
I read everything readable, I purposely write down big numbers and calculate them. I'd time myself and find a way get my answers correct.

I studied the stars at night. My mother would be calling me to come inside the house.
I had my journals. I wrote down my theories, my calculations and my findings.
I read books on the universe. I was able to hold in my head the distances each plant had from the Sun.

When I was in school, before I was thought something, I already knew it.
I was the best in all subjects and was questioning teachers sef. The first position was never taken from me.

ask me to stop. That I was over working my brain.
At eleven, I created an incubator and hatched a lizard egg. I studied how each day went and it's improvement.
Between the ages of 8,9,10,11 and 12. I was studying animal life.
I caught a baby rat and took care of it for 3wks.

I lost it to cold though. I operated on frogs. I'd cut the stomach open and study their insides, then stitch them up and let them heal then they'd go.
I caught butterflies, kept them and saw that they couldn't last on the inside. They survived on the outside.

I kept their eggs for studying. I trained grasshoppers just so I'd know how long their life span is.
I once caught a pregnant lizard and delivered her eggs which I used my mini incubator to hatch.
My mother simply helped me by buying me gloves and surgical masks.

I owned a rabbit, dogs and serval animals. I was in the bushes most times studying insects and birds.
Then by 13, I was done reading two psychology text books and a medical text book.
I was curious to know why humans do what we do and how our body system behaves.

I didn't mention that I build a robot that could lift things at the age of 12.
My younger brother was highly impressed. I also build cars that moved with remote.
Then I experimented on a balloon flight. I first built a mini one which failed for like 4 times. But the 5th flew.

Then I was working on building a big one but I couldn't get enough equipments.
I build a small helicopter that flew.
I was connecting the electric bulbs, switches and fuses in my house. My mother hardly called an electrician.

With time, I began reading the lives of our inventors like Faraday, Issac Newton and the likes. This gave me more morale that I wasn't alone.
My cravings for wisdom grew more. Mind you, some things came to me naturally like counseling relationships and marriage.

Then I read further books on it and by 15, I had counselled up to 27 marriages/relationships and they all came back with positive testimonies. As at now, I have over 60 positive testimonies. (None actually failed) I run a page on this on Facebook.
Then, I wanted to be a scientist and study at Cambridge. (Yes, I know my plans didn't work as planned 
)
Meanwhile, I took a special interest in geography one time and I fell in love with nature. I didn't tell you I could draw too.
I could draw you like you are.

I was basically a child who could do everything but with time, pick the ones that would favour me in the future.
I mainly like reading histories. They just spark this fire in me to know what happened.
I didn't tell you that I built my brain to hear things from a long distance.

I didn't tell you that I built my brain to hear things from a long distance.
I could close my eyes, concentrate n I hear what someone who is far off saying.(A little of this is left now).
I think my major thing that drove me then was, if someone created the calculator and computers and put this information in them, then I can as well just be a computer.

There are lots of other things I would not mention here for now.
Meanwhile, my language learning grew too.
I build on it and mind you, for each language I learn, I get a friend from that country I can communicate with often so the language doesn't die.

My to - do list is something like this.

- Read on a particular topic like universe. Oceans, hurricanes or so.
- Calculate numbers and so.

Giving them meaning in relation to what led to the word.
I give the pronunciation, noun, adjective and examples.
Till today, I haven't stop learning.

I didn't go to big school or born in a wealthy home. I had knowledge I didn't know what to do with. The internet wasn't hot then to market me. I felt my country has no hope for me so I became a regular person.
Today, I stand and talk to top men in the society and they keep asking, "What so did you study, you're so intelligent."
As it stands now, there is no conversation I cannot take part in except politics
Also for me, fun is learning and researching but wen I include it in my CV

It's as if I am lying to impress my employer.
My fun is learning. I just get so excited when learning.
So my love for knowledge and languages led me to creating a new language that would be launched in one of my epic scripts.
The movie would be spoken in that language.
