I'm proud of the person i've become. I'm loyal, honest and i've got an undying urge to help the people around me who are suffering. I've managed to get a college degree against all odds and the only person motivating me was my self.

I think that just our existence as undocumented people is something to be proud of, lol. Almost everything we do, even the most mundane stuff, takes a lot more effort than it would if we were USC's.

I'm proud that I haven't let my lack of status determine my self worth. It hasn't stopped me from having goals and trying to achieve them.

Like this response. It has a lot of flow.

I'm in shape
I'm not an idiot
I'm not a crack addict
I'm smart
I don't believe every government lie I'm told.
I actually work for a better future not just to get a good paying job.

Sorry but having a clean record and not doing drugs is not an accomplishment.

I didn't beat my mother today. Did I accomplish something too?

Way to make a complete ass of yourself. Lots of people that don't deserve their citizenship in this country are in prison, are drug addicts, etc. Reread the thread title, it's what are you proud of, not only what have you accomplished.
