Making games. What to do after learning C++

Hi, I've just finished learning C++ and SDL. But... I don't think i can make any good 2D game like that. I've heard about desing patters, and OOP but they are too hard for noob like me.

Why would you intentionally sleep between polling/rendering? Way to kill your FPS, fag. Maybe you play casual games, but in a real game like Counter-Strike 1.6, that's just going to kill your reflexes.
