    This is my greatest accomplishment today.

    Otherwise, it would be building a life that makes me happy -- including but not limited to: owning my own business, having an awesome husband and daughter, an awesome group of friends and really awesome hair. All because I filled out that application for Awesome University that was sitting on my desk.
    Awesome hair is a pretty awesome accomplishment! :)

    I'm filling it out...grumbling, but filling it out. Nursing school kicked my butt when I was getting my RN, so I'm dreading NP school.

    YOU CAN!!!

    YOU WILL

    22 - Living a year abroad.
    This is awesome!

    Some days I think this would be cool, but I'm too much of a small hometown kind of girl to make this work for me. It's great that you've had that opportunity!

    22, greatest accomplishments are becoming financially independent from my family and being in my college's political science honor society. Soon I'll be taking the LSAT and hopefully that can be added to my list.

    I think it's obvious that mocking recovering alcoholics and dismissing other people's achievements (even if I don't personally agree with them) is so morally repugnant and reprehensible, that I see no point in wasting my time engaging in, what hopefully is an obvious troll. Otherwise, my whatever your higher power be, have mercy on your soul.

    For the record, I never mocked anyone... but your point is made. I never defended the guy, I was just saying it is hypocritical and ignorant to go the route of resorting to insults as opposed to rendering a logical argument.

    Who insulted anyone?

    I am nineteen years old. And I have done many things that I am proud of and happy for, but I would have to say my greatest accomplishment was convincing my best friend two years ago not to commit suicide.

    I'm only 21 (soon to be 22) but my greatest accomplishment so far is achieving a Merit in a BTEC First Diploma in Children's Care, Learning & Development Level 2 course that I did back in 2009/2010.

    I'm 41. I would have to say that my greatest accomplishment is that I am a loving father who spends quality time with his children, giving them memories they will always remember, and instilling values in them. I've also done some cool things in inner city youth pastoring, teaching, and in academics.

    Great topic, Laura...very inspiring. :)

    No kiddos of my own but being an aunt and having full custody of my nephew for the first 13 months of his life. I love him as my own, I cried for days on end when the state of Texas made me give him back to his irresponsible parents :cry:

    LOL @ people who think that raising kids to be functional adults is not an accomplishment.

    I don't think they've seen how easy it is to screw up.

    How are kids an accomplishment? How is procreation an accomplishment? You will say, well my kids are so good and pious and smart and great.....but every parent thinks that about their kid.
