Build something. Resist the urge to use all that theory to make it optimal. Just make it work. From what you've posted, I'd suggest inventing a "toy" language and writing a compiler or interpreter for it.

One of my favorite sayings goes: "What's the difference between theory and practice?" "In theory, there is no difference".

It sounds like you have the theory covered pretty well.
