The title is quite explanatory, but just for clarification, you post something you have done that makes you feel proud! It can be anything and everything.

I will get the ball rolling with:

Today I finished my prep work for when I start the IB in September.

[MR.AHM]

Today I finished my Economics Commentary.. And finished mending my 2 chem IAs and 2 Physics IA's
And yesterday finished my summer CAS journals

[Emy Glau-ski]

I woke up before noon

[Desy Glau]

as I want to go into Computer Science, I figured it would help if I learn some easy programming by myself over this holiday. well, I did when I was in grade 8, but I've forgotten the codes! so today I re-learnt programming using Visual Basic by myself. and I created my own Body Mass Index Calculator! I'm sooooo happy and proud! I know it's very easy to create, and the professional programmers would look down on me, but I'm still happy because I built it myself and I fixed the errors myself

Today I made 3 fried eggs without the whites touching each other in the pan >

Have you tried the Scratch? It is designed for beginners, and when I mean beginners, EVERYONE Text-based languages such as Visual Basic are often harder until you get a good hold of the essentials. My dad said if you learn C, most of the other ones are a lot easier to get to.

I've never heard of it! link me please..?

VB is not that difficult! it's said to be easy, compared to the real programming languages I'm lucky though because I've learnt the basics in grade 8. that's why I choose to learn VB not java or C++ lol

[Trololol Marf]

To stay relevant, I am proud that I have just finished 40% of my rough draft of my EE.

Scratch is even easier! It is not text-based loll.. but the limitations are crazy However I took computer science in grade 10 and it gave me a really good sense of the programming experience.

Today I walked in a political rally for 6 hours to pass the Lok Pal Bill in India and start the process to making corruption illegal and punishable by law.

Real programmers code in binary.

I did not do anything to make myself proud today. I spent six hours or so in front of the computer...

Hmm, i was awake until 6.30 in the morning

LOL, that is inconvenient. To code in 1s and 0s. Yeah I've been doing that too... Not to proud of it...

Today I finally found a reason to start working.

Awesome, now apply that in general and we can run with that! Now you can work "really really really really hard (4)" and finish ALL your summer homework, if you know what I'm saying!

[haley.the.great]

I'm proud of myself for finally tanning my skin to a desirable shade. I spent like 2 hours by the pool in Texas heat...and survived.   

[ChikkyD]

I am proud for helping a stranger today

[Desy Glau]

I'm proud that I've created another programme today a dice roller. hope it'd be somewhat useful for my math IA :/

I wonder if this pride of programming a programme will last when I'm at uni though! I guess I'll be doing it so often I'd get used to it
