TALENTS!

I just wondered...what talents do you have? This is a thread for sharing your talents, and complimenting other people on their talents...if you like to do something, but aren't that good at it, don't count it as a talent.

My Talents

-Singing. I love to sing, and have the pop radio stations that I get in Portland on almost all the time I'm in my room. I know most of the lyrics to most of the pop songs that they play, (ex. songs by Taylor Swift, Halsey, the Chainsmokers, Justin Beiber, (I only like two of his songs) Bruno Mars, (*shudders* I hate his music, but I know the lyrics all the same...) that one by Linkin Park and Kiara, Heavy--best song EVAH!--and a bunch of others) and unconsciously just sing along. I can carry a tune pretty well, although I've never actually heard my voice in a good recording.

-Writing. I consider this one of my best talents. My writing skills are mostly due to the CB, because before I came on here my writing was pointless, awfully bland, with no description at all and no conflict. Thank you, CB!

-Poetry...? I know different people have totally different styles of writing, but I don't consider writing poetry on of my talents. I mean, sometimes I'll write a really good poem but the rest of the time it's just..."blah" poetry.

Umm... I am not really confident in my talents, but most people say these:

Adaptability ~ I think it comes from moving so much. I can be thrown into a new situation that I am not fond of, and yet do perfectly fine. In fact - whether it be good or bad - I can almost entirely forget about the life I had before that situation. 

Creative Writing ~ Even though I didn't learn to read until I was ten, I picked up writing very quickly. By age 12 I was writing things people found beautiful and intriguing, and since then my skills have expanded greatly.

Essay Writing ~ This is something new I've taken up, but my essays (that includes Memoirs) leave people speechless. I guess the thing is, my life has a lot of good and bad, and people want to hear that.

POEEETTRRYY ~ Sorry, I just absolutely love poetry. It was actually you guys who got me into it! Last summer I saw all these poetry threads, and so it was July 2nd when I tried my hand at it. My poetry book is still pretty small, but everything I write people cry to. Just because I put a lot of emotion and experiences into what I do...

Uhh... sympathy? Does that even count? ~ I guess some people just don't know how to understand and care for others. Even if I don't always know what to say, the least I can do is be there for someone. A lot of people tell me this is a really special talent of mine, but I don't know.

Reading people/environments ~ Call me crazy, but this is actually a very important talent of mine. Going with the previous one, I can look at someone who never shows emotion and know exactly what is wrong with them. Or I can enter into a street and know something just isn't right. In other words, I am extremely aware of my environment.

Everyone has so cool talents!! I am kinda jealous xD

Well I don't have many but I do have a couple:

Drawing: I like to draw, I mostly copy other drawings (surprisingly well) but the things I do practice usually come out looking like cartoon characters lol.

Volleyball: I dont talk about this talent alot, mostly because the only thing Im good at is blasting peoples heads off with the ball... Not on purpose. * stairs up at sealing* But it is a talent.

Horse training: Ok horse trainer in training, I love horses they are like my life and I've always wanted to train them like the cowboys in the wild west. And now I can... Sort of.

Photography: I love photography, its like painting... But with a camera. All those colorful sunsets, flowers and such just waiting for their beauty to be preserved... Till your siblings delete all your awsome photos.* coughcough darn siblings cough cough* Ya, paintings cant get deleted... Anyway next talent!

Singing: I like singing, its not my heart and soul 1 because I HATE the stage, people stairing at your every move, all eyes and ears tooned in on you... * shivers* Nope not for me, but I do love singing.

Ummm... Ya I think thats it,like I said not alot.

I know I'm late to the party...but here are some of mine:

 

Working with animals- I've always been really good with animals, for some reason. I've trained dogs, horses, birds (like a lot of birds), cats, donkeys, sheep, goats and a bunch more that I don't really have time to list. 

Horses- My boss nicknamed me horsewhisperer...so I'm just gonna say that cause I'm proud of it. Haha!

Drawing-sort of.

Copy people's handwriting-kinda weird...I know

I'm really good at accents-

Acting out characters- mostly from movies...has anyone seen Gilligan's Island? That's what started me off. I can do all those characters' walks, talks, jokes, smiles...I can also do the Marx Brothers (all four) and some Star Treck and Star Wars. I can also do pretty good book characters, but I fill that in myself. 

Writing- I'm not as good as my sister. But I've gotten better (With much thanks to Gail Carson Levine's books and writing blog) 

Climbing- I love it, and I'm great at it

Running- Sprinting is my favorite! I LOVE IT!

Ice hockey and skating- You don't want me to go into this...but oh gosh!!!!!!!!!

Exploring and Adventuring- does that count? If so...I rock at it! 

Running out of things to say- Oh I'm great at this one!!! But really...I had better go before this takes a turn for the worst. 

OH! And riding horses is one of my talents...but I think that goes without saying from up above.
