Structure "as angry as I was"
Hi everyone! I've just stumbled across this sentence and its beginning caught my eye:
"Anyway as angry as I was with him leaving, building this stuff is probably what led me to become an engineer".
What does "as angry as I was" mean exactly? Can the sentence be paraphrased as "Even though I was angry, building..."?
or does it just mean "I was really angry"?
I'd really appreciate it if you could also provide some other examples with this structure.
Thanks a lot!

yes "even though I was angry" is a good way to paraphrase that .... as angry as I was, I still had a speech to give .... as angry as I was I still loved him ... etc.

could you give me a little more context with that paragraph. But you could say that like this. "as angry or upset that i was with him leaving,..... ect.
hope this helps
