When I was 16 in high school I'd recently come out as bisexual and was having some difficulty with the other pupils because they're scum that way.

One of them took it upon himself to write lots of hateful stuff on the back of my shirt in biology class. I lsot my temper, spun around over the desk on one hand to kick him in the chest, punch him in the stomach and slam his face into my knee.

I was very proud of it indeed. Got into no trouble for it because of him being a hateful prick :3

Oh I also learned to control my temper at some point that was good.

Oh and around the same time a guy was picking on my then boyfriend for being bi and I smacked him down like a *****.

OH! I also beat DMC3 on every difficulty with perfect S ranks. Fuck yeah.

Edit: I've also lost 2 stone (thats 28 lbs) since september. I am now 11 stone 13 lbs :)

Where have I heard that one before? :D


OT: Hmm, I don't really have anything I'm proud of.

I'm kind of just drifting through life, with no real direction...
Look at it this way: No direction is better than One Direction.

OT: Got personalized responses from publishers at the age of twelve and published a book at the age of sixteen.

*snap snap snap* Mmhmmm!
I want your life...

Starting a metal band that plays the exact kind of style we want, one thats original, heavy, and fantasy/video game influenced. Our first show is December 1st at a local venue in Tampa and I couldnt be more proud. It doesnt matter to me whether we get famous (We wont - Our band name is "The Hounds of Scumfuck" hahaha) but its just the fact that ill be able togo out in front of a bunch of random peoeple and show them our style of playing metal weve honed and practiced over the past year and ahalf.

Eh, it's not all that. It wasn't a book I really wanted to write, it was just an opportunity presented to me. Quite small scale, too.

I'm taking a gap year after this academic year to write a novel. Fingers crossed it goes well.

These Drawings! I was going to do one more, but the community is full of haters. Too bad for them, I'm drawing something else now >:C !







Also, this. Which people seem to be copying? Interesting.

Holy crap, that is some awesome art, you should draw ponies, bronies love awesome art like that.

I got a pretty awesome tech job that allows me to work from home and even still game, plus it could easily become a career with a small company that is looking to expand.

Stopped a co-worker from ending up on the street. Long story short, his racist landlord kicked him out with almost no time to pack. I helped him find a new apartment since he didn't speak the language and I vouched a loan for him also so he could pay the predeposit.

Other then that I've gotten some freelance work as an animator. Not enough work to live on but enough to boost my ego

I was on the Reebok all American team(American football) my senior year. Only thing was, it wasn't at a "glory" position. I was a guard. Thing is, we sucked that year, but I really enjoyed smashing assholes. Especially if the person was highly touted/recruited. I'm also proud of getting through college with my B.S.. It was a struggle because of health reasons(had to sit out 3 semesters due to various problems with my back), funding problems(too well off for pell grant, too poor to just pay up front, banks gave me a hard time for some reason. I keep my money in a credit union because of this and a few other things) and the complicated system University of Southern Missisippi used at the time for placement in classes. I literally spent weeks per semester scouring the online course catalog to get in to classes I needed while not overlapping time wise. I hope they fixed that system, it was broken so badly

I sang in Carnegie Hall, which was pretty freakin' amazing. I've watched a leatherback turtle give birth in Costa Rica and moved the eggs to a new site so they wouldn't be taken by poachers. Along with a lot of other not-as-noteworthy stuff, I'd also like to say I memorized 101 digits of pi because I was bored, but the accomplishment seemed diminished when I saw geK0 memorized 128 digits. 101 sounds cooler though.

I've gotten my videos approved by the creators of the comics Foxtrot, Lio, Retail, Zits, and Off the Mark.

You can watch them here, if you're so inclined:

And here's the Zits seal of approval:

Your drawings are fantastic, I find Tenzin's portrait the best in my own opinion. Do you have any The Last Airbender ones?

I don't know why I went to this thread, now I feel depressed because well, I've not done anything to be proud of in my life, quite a failure to be honest.

Guess speaking fluent English is good since I'm from Sweden, other than that I don't know.

I've photographed two weddings for free, just because!

People like nice photos. Professional photographers charge hundreds, if not thousands, for a days work. It'd be a shame for people to have to settle for some shitty hack, just because he's cheap.

I was one of two on my second wedding......I was the 'sniper'

I guess except helping some people through hard moments by just being there for them there isn't a lot to be proud of.

Managed to get an overall mark of 80 for Economics in my first year, including a 90 for my essay. Considering the work I put in it was pretty good to be rewarded for the effort. This year seems to be going pretty well so far too.
