    Video games, I can remember dates easily (So, History is like my best academic related thing) People also tell me I have a wild imagination. Oh, I'm also good at seeing far away. Also, Chess :p

    Video games, I'm good with animals they constantly crowd me when I'm around mainly dogs... and some cats, I like to think I'm good at beer pong, I guess you could say psychology but that's questionable, I'm good at managing to fall half way down the stairs at night when I can't see and I have a PHD in kicking flank.

    I'm an all rounder, meaning I'm pretty much better than average at anything provided I put the amount of work into it that I normally do, but here are my talents.

    Swimming
    Piano
    Singing
    Academics
    Outdoorsy stuff (Hiking camping survival etc)
    General physical tasks
    I know a bit about pc's (Enough to get a basic job, building, setting up and fixing computers)


    I also have a few other attributes that allow me to do things and learn them quickly if I absolutely have to, like going into extremes and doing things people consider crazy, basically I have a stron willpower.

    Used to be good at sharpshooting but I sold my pellet gun.

    I'm good with my hands and good with visualizing things in my mind. So things related to maths, art and design more or less.

    I have good coordination and am decently dextrous, so I'm not bad at spinning and twirling things about. But I'm also a little clumsy and drop them from time to time.

    I'm good at singing and music.

    I'm good at math, especially basic calculus.

    I suppose I'm good at video games. I sure play them a ton, anyway.

    Let's see......

    Organizing
    Anything to do with hand-eye coordination and quick reflexes(video games :smile:)
    Burping(I can make music with my burps)
    Computers in general. A little bit of everything, but I don't specialize in anything specific.
    Strategizing
    Multi-tasking
    I can solve a Rubix cube in less than a minute. Err...well I have before, but it usually takes like 2 minutes.
    Playing with fire and not getting burned
    Drums
    Spacing out, but still being very productive. Muscle memory?
    Staring contests.
    Awareness. No matter where I go I'm always aware of everyone and everything around me. It's kind of a paranoia type thing I got from my dad. I like to be ready for anything.
    Predicting weather. The weather channel isn't always right. Some in my family come to me and ask. I'm right 90% of the time.
    Smell. I guess I have a very strong sense of smell. I'm always saying things I smell on the wind when we go places or when were at restaurants I like to guess what the people behind us have without looking. My mom is amused by it sometimes. Smells are my best way to open my memories. She also laughs at me when I tag along with her to the candle store. Too....many....*cough*....smells.

    Faults:
    I lack common sense in a way. I am terrible at getting jokes I never heard before, no matter how obvious.
    I am clumsy. I bump into stuff all the time, including people.
    I get overly dramatic when people ignore me.
    I'm fat.:cry: Nah I don't care much about that.
    I'm immature and have a lot of kid spirit in me. People don't like me to act so carefree at times because life is hard. I call it "controllable denial."

    Absolutely nothing.
    There is no reason to view anything I do as talent or proficient in.

    I'm not entirely sure what I'm good at yet. Then again, I have no hobbies, so that doesn't exactly help. I suppose that I'm kind of smart. But that's about it.

    I'm told I can write very well. I'm also good at history based topics and just general information.

    Well, in school my best subject was English, reading/writing/vocabulary. I read pretty fast, I can get through the whole Harry Potter series in less than a week, and thats when I'm working half the day. I also tested out of my college Composition course by writing a baller essay, although I've never written anything I didn't have to. I'm also good at expanding my vocabulary by using context alone. Possibly just cause I read a lot.

    Out of school, there isn't much. I suppose I'm good at driving, I speed everywhere and haven't crashed yet anyway... I have a natural talent for welding that probably surpasses all my talents put together even though I hardly ever do it, mostly because I don't like doing it.

    And even though I have a drawing thread and such, I really wouldn't consider myself good at it. I'm trying to improve, but I don't really consider it a strong suit.

    I'm also fairly decent at reading people's emotions. I really wouldn't call it a talent, but for example if someone says they're fine, I know whether they actually are fine or they're just saying they are.



    That's about it I suppose.

    I have a good memory.

    I am very creative and have an active imagination.

    I am said to have an above average intelligence, granted that my social skills are worthless.

    This combined means that my special talent would be something I call the prophet mark. My greatest strength lies in religious/spiritual affairs, as my abillity is at it's best in subjects with no provable factual answers which allows me to use my imagination and creativity to the fullest.
