Making a game in C++

I want to start making a game in C++, but I have no idea where to start, and where to progress from there.

I know I'm going to get flamed, but it's worth a shot.

I made a Asteroids clone in 1 day with GDI+ when I was 1 week into learning C#.

That, of course, gives me the title of EXPERT PROGRAMMER

(C++/SDL took me 3 days, because I didn't know how to rotate graphics. (in b4 "sdl_gfx motherfucker, do you use it))
