Would someone happen to be a programmer or is in the works of becoming a programmer?

I majored in Computer Engineering. Had a good deal of programming. Granted, it's been ten years and I haven't really worked in the field, but I might can answer some basics.

@all of you
How did you get started learning. I've been wanting to learn programming for a long time for developing apps and possibly becoming a programmer when I grow up and I want to start learning right now. I don't do my homework so I guess I could use that time I do nothing to be productive. But I can never just get started. I dled a pdf of a book on how to program C something, or maybe just C and I just couldn't get on it. I never could get past the Hello World part. After that it was just a bunch of mumble jumble. I've read online and a lot of people say to go to guides and books online though they're all the same thing. Confusing as hell. So I'm just wondering, how did you get started learning how to program? Is it something I should just wait for in college where I can have an instructor I can ask questions and such? Or is there some hidden secret answer to learn it more easily.
