Mate you are awesome. Worth reading.
Happiness is some one describing about the JavaScript. And moreover I had the same feeling like getting frustrated, but here the reason is little bit different. During my day job i don't have any work to do (I haven't associated with any project). Later I decided to work on my projects. As a frontend developer, I have consumed github's api lot. Used to ship my code to github. Got good feedback from the people around the world. I have started building my writing portfolio also.
All here I wanted to convey, don't wait for anyone to assign you project.
