This is a little nerdy, but hey!
-you could try making a little calculator, that uses functions to use arithmetic to determine an answer between two values.
-you could make a little game, I made battleships(battleships esque) by getting an array of characters, and treat them like a grid, the player had to enter a co-ordinate, and they would either find some treasure, or hit a mine. (I made this when I was 15, I made use of the Windows.h library to add colour to the console window, and use message beeps to make it feel like a real game!)
Coming up with something fun to do is one of the best parts of programming, you sit down, get a pad of paper (or use a whiteboard is you're hardcore

) and plan something out, then you go ahead and punch it in
I have very fond memories of designing my levels by hand at my desk, working out where my obstacles would go, and then using my console-based editor (that's all I knew what to do at the time, for some reason I miss doing that) to type them in one-by one manually, what was I thinking?
Going back on topic... try and be creative, do something you're interested in, something that you can achieve and something you want to achieve!

I think I can program pretty well, it's my compiler that needs convincing!

And now a joke to lighten to mood :D
I wander what programming language anakin skywalker used to program C3-PO's AI back on tatooine? my guess is Jawa :P
