I don't really do pride.

In any case, I'm not sure that I've ever done anything that remarkable.

its more of a feeling good and positive about yourself/achievements. pride doesnt always have to be negative

I dont want to get all soppy on here but im so damn proud of myself for graduating university this summer and getting into my pgce. only God knows how much i went through to even get my 2.1 (depression, anxiety etc.). university was especially tough for me as I had so many inner battles and felt so alone and due to this my attendance was horrendous first and second year (I got threatened to get kicked off numerous times and was extremely close to not getting obtaining my full degree)but I DID IT!!!! oncr I graduated, I got rejected from the uni I wanted to do my teacher training at (because I failed a certain exam) but I revised and retook the exam privately again a week later and got into an amazing teacher training place (even better than the one that rejected me). This all happened this year/this summer and top of that, I was still heartbroken over a toxic relationship I ended (he was my first love so Im so proud of myself for leaving despite how hard it was). I am also taking care of my siblings as my mum is away. juggling everything had been difficult but its taught me how strong of a woman I am!!! and that God is all powerful.

Im so proud of myself and thats my biggest accomplishment so far ❤️ whats yours?

thanks for coming to my ted talk lol

I'm really academically focused rn so it has to be recovering from having an E in Chemistry in december to A* in my end of years, thus A* prediction. Also D in FM in december and working my way up to an A* prediction.
My ego and self-confidence was absolutely shattered when I got the E and D respectively. Now I'm back on the grind and fully confident.

I see the change in my mental health, which took months, as my greatest accomplishment. :smile:

I probably was at my peak fitness back then tbf 😂 Uni has taken over now so not quite as fit anymore... :tongue:

Planning to start training and do it again one day.

Nope, it wasn't for charity. I did it with my Cadet Squadron (ATC) as a challenge to myself. I'm quite Academic so I wanted to show I'm also sporty/active when I have the drive.


how did it feel after you completed it?

Just finished it! But that's not so spectacular and I'm not sure it's worth being 'proud' of. It's just a thing I've done, yknow.

Being one of only 3 singers to make into a prestigious music course. I beat over 100 people to get into that course. The biggest and best shock of my life :redface:
