The thing about boasting of one's achievements is a two-way thing. While one might be in a bid to put in an appearance and shade others, the other might just be a way to document what has happened and/or even do some publicity. It's just controversial.
Meanwhile, may I ask what it is that you studied that you got defined by?
Indeed there is a fine line between bragging and some publicity, In my home country lawyer and in the country where I currently reside manicurist and beautician totally different things but all fill me with pride there is nothing to be ashamed, thank you very much for taking the time to read and respond, sorry for my delay in responding have a nice weekend.
