You're a manager? Wow, that's pretty impressive. Did you have to go up through the ranks? My friend is working on that right now, he started as a Bag Boy, and is now a Manager in the Produce department.

- Graduating High School with an A average
- Winning Summa Cum Laude (gold medal) on the National Latin Exam 2 years in a row (sophomore and junior years of high school)
- Making it within the top 10 of the Texas State Junior Classical League 2 years in a row (junior and senior year)
- Getting accepted to UT Dallas (which, contrary to what many in Texas may think, is actually a lot harder to get into than places like UT Austin and A&M)

One time I made scrambled eggs, without burning them.

Other than that, I have a 4.0 (perfect :D) Grade Point Avg. in college so far. That's only 1 semester's worth though. This college has strictly letter grades, no A minus or B plus etc.. Only A B C D and F, so a 91, is perfect, basically.

I created a device which is so terrible, I promised never to use it. However, one day a giant beast ravaged my homeland and I was forced to unleah it's awesome power. Traveling to the bottom of Tokyo Bay, I activated my Oxygen Destroyer and rid the world of Godzilla for a couple years..

3.98 in high school so far with only one B+ in Pre Calculus.(may sound easy but the teacher made it difficult). I am also in difficult coarses. (AP classes). I'm a Senior this year and going to college the second semester when all my credits, and AP classes are finished.

Winning the Delta Invitational for Tennis and continuing to improve.

Snowboarding for a long time and continuing to love it every time I go. (I have a season pass so I go a lot during the season!)

Keep playing recreation sports(soccer, basketball) with my friends.

-Graduating High as co-Valedictorian (both 4.0 gpas)

-Then giving what some would call the greatest Valedictorian address of all time. I'm not being conceded, I was actually told that by a lot of people including some I never even meet. And since I have a small fear of talking to large crowds, it was an accomplishment just to give the speech.

-Having a 4.0 gpa in college while in the honor's program.

gpa = stands for grade point average
and 4.0 = A
so 4.0 gpa = an A grade point average (all A's)

thanks for the compliment GK

Graduating college this year 2003, staying at my job for over a year now, and artwork which I oftentimes look down upon.

1. Graduating from College with a B.A. in History and a law degree. These were major feats in my life because when I was in junior high I has headed either straight for prison or the morgue. I was able to turn my life around with the help of my family. I also had to deal with my father's terminal illness and death in my first and second years of law school.

2. Drafting the guidelines and application forms and administering a $300,000 graduate research fund while in law school. It took me 30 days to do what couldn't be done by others in over one and a half years of effort. And I did it while carrying a full-time class schedule and working in the clinical law program on five cases (including prosecuting for our state children's protective service agency).

3. As an undergraduate, I established a scholarly periodical for students interested in history and I recruited an editorial board that included members of the history department faculty. Had never been done in the history department.

4. not screwing any chance I have of going to college/university(yet)

5. I've read the entire Lord of the rings in one sitting. (I lost track of time after 25 hours)

Dude, that's awsome you snowboard too! I bet it's way cool in Switzerland!

'course i do. the one thing in switzerland is that we've got the best halfpipes and kickers in the world!!! how long've you been boarding? This is my eleventh year.

I've only been boarding for about 6 years, but I skied before that. (popular in Colorado) Boarding is a heck of a lot better than skiing for me. Dang, eleven years is a long time! You must have been around when it got started? I'm only 17 so I started actually boarding when I was like 11.

Oh yeah, the nearest slopes to me are a 30 minute drive and with a season pass I go a ton.
