Was thrown into a pen and paper drafting class in middle school because the other popular electives were full. Hated it at first because it was just drawing block letters over and over, like it was kindergarten all over again. And then we drew isometric views of simple block shapes.
But the end of the semester, the stuff we were working on was much more intricate. I ended up taking the more advanced drafting courses in high school that taught autocad. Took some classes in college that taught solid works and eventually ended up learning 3DS Max and Maya. Also learned blender on my own. Anyway, tl:dr I hated drafting at first, thought it was a bunch of bullshit. Ended up really enjoying it, and it was my gateway into learning 3d modeling.
