What is your single greatest accomplishment?

Post your single greatest accomplishment (one per customer, because only one can be your "greatest")

Here is your place to brag:

Mine is when I kept myself and a survival inept moron alive for 3 weeks on an island the size of a parakeets gizzard!

getting digital audio restoration under my belt.

This one stands out even in the face of all my academic achievement in the face of depression and disability.

My mother used to work in a group home for disabled adults. I was about 14 at the time, and during my school holiday's I'd go to work with her, because I enjoyed talking to the people who lived in the home.
The person in charge of the home (not my mother) was called the house mother.
One day, we all went out for a barbeque and to play cricket. There were a few extra people visiting, and one was a man named Stuart who could talk but hardly ever did. I had spent the day doing what I thought was nothing; just playing cricket and talking to the people from the home like I'd talk to anyone else, as I treat everyone the same.
In the middle of it all, this guy Stuart, who virtually never talked, came out with "Rachel should be the house mother."

I'm still here, ain't I?

When I was in year 6 it was the last year of my junior school's existence, after the summer it would be a primary school. And there was a competition for the new school badge which was a picture of a infant and junior school pupil holding hands. The top half of my junior school kid design is now on the badge (not the legs, because I drew high heels and they're not part of the uniform.) This is my proudest achievement, because that school badge will be there for years, probably decades.
For some reason it was hardly mentioned, they said I won in assembly as a sort of "oh btw" at the end. I thought it would be bigger news than that, changing a school badge.

Mine would be getting a bravery award for a marine rescue out at sea..

I've become a self-taught drummer, over the past 13 months.

An achievement that I would like to have, is another article in the Grapevine about my AS with a link to WP so that my fellow Stepping Stones members can read my posts and see how my mind works.

Learning about the computer but, not from a programming standpoint though, I have build my own computer system(s) which, I find to be of a sincere & modest nature..

I felt a girl up yesterday, so I'm gonna go with that

This dog was starving and I rescued it from this family and it's slowly getting better. I consider that a good thing. I hate anyone who abuses animals. It pisses me off beyond belief.

I got my GED, and I did it out of my own free will. I drove myself to class every day, studied, and scored within the honors range. I also tutored other students and inspired a fellow dropout to get her GED. I provided her with transportation.

my 'accomplishments' have been internal, and would probably not interest many people even if i could convey them.

Lots of remarkable, genuine, humanitarian and just plain bizarre acheivements! Great job, and congratulations!

Keep 'em coming!

mine's the best

I handled a poisonous snake a few weeks ago without getting bit. Always a plus.
Back in my teen years, I pulled a young kid out of the local river.
All yea, I got felt up by Kilroy yesterday.
