this is my first time making carbonara, and I need honest answers, did I cook?

I think you might after over stirred. I see broken noodles. I would inhale it though. Do you!

You definitely did cook. I’ll critique after I’m done shoveling this into my mouth.

The eggs are a bit overcooked. Try using more pasta water next time.
I’d eat it anyway! Probably delicious.

I’d suggest you to use a short pasta (like rigatoni maybe) and wait for the absolute last seconds, with the heat off, to add the eggs and cheese, so you get the pasta much more creamy and not so dry.
Do not discard the water which you cooked the pasta in; always keep it aside in a bowl in the sink maybe, and keep adding it when you toss/emulsify the pasta until it’s perfectly creamy (or the way you like it, I mean)

As others have said more pasta water. My wife uses linguine Barilla no13 or Barilla al bronzo. Also maybe 50ml cream which is not traditional.

Good start. Now just get it like this
ngl that’s the perfect size for when you want your espresso to hit like a truck and have you vibrating through the ceiling by 9am, honestly valid
