I'm good at guitar, piano, clarinet, and cooking.

My talents mostly lie within my knowledge (and curiosity) for how thinks work, and my ability to apply that knowledge to help solve problems.

Yo-yo's. I'm a state yo-yo champion, and a former world record holder.

(Added the record mention.)

I can draw and paint
(most outstanding artist award in 9th grade, and 2nd in the tempera paint category in a state art competition)

I like to sing
(Was in a choir from 5th-7th grade, and then church choir...I haven't been able to develop this talent as much as I would have liked but I have had a handful of solos in my life)

I am a runner
(hardest worker in 9th grade track, most outstanding sophomore in cross-country, and I think 14 medals from various races, plus a plaque for being 3rd in my age division in the marathon)

I am above-average in school
(straight A's 10th/11th grade and a principals pass both of those years...and only two B's the other 2 years of HS...one because of a stupid teacher and one that was weighted)

I can sign
(ASL for 2 years, signed a solo in an ASL talent show)

Hmm...

:chin:

Well, my personal record for speed-solving a Rubik's Cube is 48.81 seconds. Does that count?

You should join band (for the clarinet), I had friends that did and they got to do some pretty cool things. Plus, they were really shy before and they really came out of their shell there. I'm thinking a few of them had ADD even. (but I'm horrible at guessing that sort of stuff)

You and Makayla both play guitar.

Cool.

Being able to collect the right information by asking the right questions and applying that to real problems? You sound like a scientist.

Impressive, congratulations. Pretty unique talent.

Like cars and such? Coolio, my Grandpa does that...the nice thing is that even when he got old and was laid off from GMC, he still has a job being able to teach people how to do that stuff.

Drumming is pretty schweet, always would be my first choice if I were to ever join a band....did you learn it in school or what?

Also, what medium for art?

That's not nice to yourself or the thread, you must have some talents.....didn't you knit a hat or something on fb?

I can quote everything from Family Guy & do Beavis & ButtHead impersonations but emulating mental ret*ds from cartoons probably isn't a good talent to have
