Computers and more recently programming.
In 2001 I got my first taste of the internet when my mom brought home a crappy laptop and connected it via dial up. I was 6 or 7 and got hooked playing chess on yahoo games.
Ever sense I've been a power user spending at least 8+ hours online a day and loving it!
Started teaching myself to code in high-school.(4-5 hours a day easy throwaway online classes == great way to spend senior year) After I graduated last year my average time spent in front of a computer climbed to summer vacation levels of around 16+ hours a day.

Little bit of addiction, whole lot of passion.
