    Maths.

    Told my parents I wouldn’t do anything related to mathematics as a career. I am now a computer engineer.

    Coffee.

    For the first 45 years of my life, I found it disgusting. Then I finally had some “artsy” coffee that actually had a decent amount of cream and sugar in it to cut down on the bitterness and harshness.

    I now joke about adding coffee to my cream and honey. It’s not quite that bad. But I drink a full half-litre of it (about 550-600ml after cream and honey) every morning now.

      I used to hate coffee. Now I have at least one cup every morning. I gotta drink it black, though, partly because I’m just not a fan of creamer and sugar, and partly because I really don’t need the extra calories and diabetes runs in the family.

    Living in a hot country. Every weekend we’d go meet up with friends in someone’s garden and let the kids run around playing while we chat shit and drank cold wine and beer.

    I put off playing Fortnite because I thought it was for kids… It is easily my most played game, probably ever.
