My first encounter with programming was a classmate who showed me how to use VBScript. I didn't really know what I was doing, but I could make messageboxes and the like.

Soon I found a program which allowed me to write some Visual Basic-esque code. I can't remember the name, but it was quite crappy.

Later, I studied Software Engineering and had C# as my first real language, along with the basics of software development. Later came C, Bash, Java and SQL.
