Overview
If you have done something worth noting, you need to let the people in your life know about it, pronto! There is no sense in hiding your light under a bushel -- showing off isn't a crime (although it may make other people feel criminally jealous). You can't worry about coming off as having a big ego right now. Exercise your pride. Let people think what they want to think, it's not going to affect your mood. Let yourself be proud of what you have done.
