I think it's time for a feel good about yourself thread.  Even if your talents and skill are dubious and/or silly...

Let me start. *clears throat* (and wow, do I need to right now)

I can play several musical instruments (as you might have guessed).
I figured out how to solve a Rubik's Cube when I was 12.
I can build and repair stringed instruments.
I can do home repairs and some light construction.
I can usually guess how much my bill is at a restaurant by +/- 5% before looking at it.

I am currently working on cooking and singing.

Uhh... Let's see...

Well, I'm pretty tech savvy. Particularly when it comes to computers. And I don't just mean in the typical sense of, "I know what parts go where and what to replace." I mean I can actually disassemble the damaged part and fix it instead of having to replace it in many cases, and I have a sort of natural understanding of how electronics in general work.

Other than that... I think I'm a pretty good writer. I used to be an above average singer, before puberty ruined my voice. I feel like I could make it sound at least somewhat good again with enough work, but I haven't put much effort into it yet.

Talents and skills:

1. I play guitar and double bass.
2. I can rap. Would like to cultivate this skill even further when my voice drops more.
3. I can tamper with HTML and CSS and would like to learn webdevelopment.
4. Put reason above emotion, it's worked great with heartbreaks.

Well let's see...

...

... I can procrastinate?

Well, I need to pick up the keyboard again, that's something I want to get good at.  I also want to pick up bass.  But I don't have any unique talents.

I can touch type. In my twenties I had the speed and accuracy for a receptionist
I can look at a serious of different coins and work out the amount it all equals quickly in my head
I can tell if an ambulace, police car or fire engine are coming by thier sierns
I can make highly alcholic drinks taste non-alcholic
I can tell the denomination of an Australin coin by the sound it makes hitting a hard surface
I can juggle three different multiple drink orders in my head give everyone the correct change, and remember who asked for drinks next. (Asking me to remember somebody's name. No)
Do not fear those who have nothing left to lose, fear those who are prepared to lose it all

Talents n Attributes...


Hrmmmm let me think...

I can play many instruments and probably own enough to have a small orchestra. I can pretty well fix anything that doesn't have a computer. I can rebuild old cars n trucks. I can drive in all the scary cities by myself with 10 lanes of traffic lol. All by myself lol.  I have a pilot's licence.  I have been told by many I have incredible touch for massage and able to remove sinus and pain issues as well as migraines . I can design and build plans from my head.  Ummm... I  have a soft hear and I love far too hard..... oh wait.... that isn't a talent lol... its a bad fault that's kinda nice. Except when it bite's me in the bum.

Oops..... I forgot.... I would like to work on becoming more settled in life instead of wanting to have so much that I don't need. I would like to have more friends because that warms my heart a lot. I have always been a social butterfly. And furthermore  be easier on myself. Life is hard enough as it is. :0)

Talents:
I can somewhat play the guitar. Some say good and others don't care for my style. Mostly loud and dirty.
Wow, it's sad because that is the only talent I have.

Skills:
I can "pimp" my own guitars.
I can find anything in a mess. When it's put up is when I have trouble finding something.
I can spend money.

I'm a good cook.

I carve things out of stone.

Is that how you were taught to write? LOL
