When I grow up, I want to be (Part 2)
$begingroup$
In my first year of life, everything was too noisy
When I turned two, I tried to learn the alphabet, but it felt like I was going in circles
After my third birthday, I learned to play tic-tac-toe
At age four, everything was about money
Year five was about learning to share
Once I turned six, I finally started to grow taller
What happened during my seventh year?
Disclaimer: There isn't going to be an exact answer, but I'll accept any answer in a similar narrative style to the story (arbitrary points for creativity) with an explanation of why it fits in

In my seventh year
I tried (and failed) at learning to bake pretzels.
Explanation:
Each year takes place on the shift symbol of a number key on a standard 103-key keyboard, progressing to the right with the passage of time.
So
! indicated all the noise. @ is a path of concentric loops. # is a tic-tac-toe board. $ is (locally) money. % is the piece of a hundred-piece whole, the rest of which went to somebody else. ^ is the direction you advance when getting taller. And & looks like a malformed baked good, but no less delicious.

In my seventh year
I tried (and failed) at learning to bake pretzels.
Explanation:
Each year takes place on the shift symbol of a number key on a standard 103-key keyboard, progressing to the right with the passage of time.
So
! indicated all the noise. @ is a path of concentric loops. # is a tic-tac-toe board. $ is (locally) money. % is the piece of a hundred-piece whole, the rest of which went to somebody else. ^ is the direction you advance when getting taller. And & looks like a malformed baked good, but no less delicious.
