So, I packed my bags and jetted off to Dubai, landing a gig at an IT company. But let me tell you, it was about as much fun as a root canal. The language barrier was like trying to decipher alien hieroglyphics and the tech scene? Let's just say they weren't exactly on the cutting edge. After two years of feeling like a hamster on a wheel - same old projects, same outdated software - I decided enough was enough! My growth mindset felt like it had been stuffed in a closet. So, I started hunting for greener pastures because this place wasn't exactly Silicon Valley!

I decided to crank up the brain juice and dove headfirst into a super fancy course called "BTEC HND in Computing". Same old college, but they shuffled me off to a different department (Building). I guess they figured I needed a change of scenery!

Once upon a time, in the bustling city of Colombo Bambalapitiya, my best buddy and I embarked on a geeky adventure at the ICBT City Campus. We signed up for "Hardware with Networking" - sounds like a computer's cocktail party, doesn't it? The college was as enjoyable as a slice of raspberry pi! The lecturers were cooler than liquid nitrogen-cooled processors and friendlier than an easy-to-use software update. And guess what? In 2011, I triumphantly crossed the finish line of this techno-journey!
