Bragging  Rights

Brag to me, brag to the world!  When you do something special you should be proud of it, and sometimes we don't always get the chance to share it.  But here, for lack of a better word, brag about anything!

Interesting places you've been, teams you're on, contests you've won, good grades, how skilled you are at something, acts of kindness, or anything in the world.  I like to hear about people's successes, so don't hold back!

I got into this arts middle school that I really wanted to get into.

Yesterday I found this really nice Members Only coat while thrifting.

I'm pretty okay at drawing. 

I've gotten a hundred percent on all of my graded school projects so far.

Why not?

I had a poem published in a book for a contest last year and this year!

I got into the high school theatre productions last year (hopefully this year too!) when I was in seventh grade!

I'm in eighth grade, and I'm taking tenth grade math!

I think that's about it. It felt kinda good though?

I can only think of one:

I can semi-successfully manage six lunatics playing a homebrew tabletop RPG at once!

 

It's kinda sad that that's all I can think of... I'm bad at stuff.

I've seen people do that before-  it's a bit like being an air traffic controller.
