What you are going through is an EXTREMELY common thing... Almost everyone goes through it at the beginning... I am not, by any means an "expert" programmer, but I can tell you that you there are only two good reasons to write your own code instead of using accepted modules: 1. You can do a better job 2. You want to learn how it is done. The problem with writing your own modules to replace existing ones is that you could be spending that time studying more advanced topics(or other modules). It is perfectly fine with me if you never progress any further, personally I don't need the competition. :)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
