I performed at Carnegie Hall, playing a musical instrument in a symphonic band. No real audience. It was a neat experience, I think our school paid for it.

I'm impressed by the Fulbright! Why is it unimpressive?

I'm a published poet, but none of the magazines exist anymore.

I was basically a child prodigy. I burned out early and am an unimpressive suburban working mom now.

Master degree (but in a dumb subject). Undergrad in full scholarship (in FL where it used to be very easy to get).

Valedictorian. There wasn't that much competition at my school.
