What's a random life accomplishment you hold dear that no one gives a shite about

Here's the time for your cool story bro moments. I was having this conversation with my wife and her cousin last weekend about things that means nothing in the grand scheme of things, and you obviously can't put on a resume, but hell, we are still proud of the moment. Go ahead OT, brag on yourself.
For myself, I was the valedictorian at my elementary school. Throughout elementary school, I made all A's all throughout, without so much as a B on a single assignment. I even met the mayor, and he had an assistant take me out on a $300 shopping trip where I got school supplies, clothes, and video games. Then 6th grade came and I started playing football. Never again have I sniffed a 4.0 GPA for an entire semester. I'm fairly confident football made me dumber.
Wife's cousin, he was a track runner in high school. He made it to the state finals. He never placed lower than 3rd place the entire season in the 100. In the finals he placed 6th. The first place guy who ran in the lane directly next to him? Just a nobody who goes by the name of Tyreek Hill.

I took the MCAT 4 times in attempts to get into a Louisiana MD program and got a score after the 4th time that correlates to a 75th percentile rank (509 or top quarter) , yet the med school ad coms didn’t seem to care enough to still let me in after all of that trouble and 3 attempts. But when I got my score back that was as proud as I’ve ever been of myself because I spent months during quarantine trying to improve it.
Also had a 3.95 gpa in biological sciences from LSU and graduated summa cum laude.

After an evening of absolutely dominating the REC basketball courts, I was walking by a group of black dudes in the cafeteria and I over hear one saying "damn you see that white boy! he be dangerous on the court!"
I've never felt more cool in my life.

I maintained second chair playing Alto Saxophone through 7th-9th grade and never really practiced after receiving initial lessons. My parents just signed my practice sheets and didn't give a damn. Now I can't even read sheet music because I didn't think being in band going into 10th grade would be 'cool.'

I struck out 15 in a rain-shortened, 6 inning little league game when I was 13. I had a nasty curveball that would start at a RH hitter's shoulders and break down over the middle of the plate. Of course, this led me to having a bad elbow but it was fun while it lasted

I have the third highest career batting average at my college
As a hitter I had the most hit-by-pitches in a season my junior year (that record has since been broken)
