Title: What are your talents?
Post by: warfreak on August 08, 2008, 10:43:38 pm
Title. :P I notice I seem to be making most of the topics here.. :(

I don't think I have any special talents. Sad, really. If ever I do have a talent, it's not something that's noticeable, like singing or dancing or musical instruments or poetry. It's very subtle, if it exists, that is.  ;D You guys?

Well... I have a talent for having absolutely no luck at most things, then I suddenly do something incredible... but actually, I play guitar and piano.... and I'm not your average American teen(in todays society, that counts as a talent!). And yeah... I build very large Lego castles.... and write books about them....

People consider me a good artist. My drawing skills don't seem so special to me though, but thats probably because I've seen people do much better jobs at it.

Why not post some art, Watsa? We'd love to see your drawing skills.  :)

Take a picture of your lego castles, CVf (I'm lazy, so I'm calling you that from now on)! I wanna see what they look like. ;D

I used to play the flute

I should practice it more.

I'm trying to learn to play the guitar.

I like to draw, I used to make them when I was inspired, or I had an original idea. Sadly, it's like I have lost most of my inspiration, and many of my best drawings got lost. :'(

Yes, I'd also like to see his art.

Lol, CVf... well, I'm about halfway done with a particularly Castlevania inspired creation, I'll post WIP(work in progress) photos shortly.

Well, I'm an illustrator, so that speaks for itself.

I'm actually quite talented in various ways.

I speak 4 languages in complete fluency, along with understanding a few others almost completely, so I guess I have about 7 languages under my belt.

I'm good at art, I'm a good singer, good writer, good actor, and an exceptional sadist when I have to be one. >:3

Wow, Marto.  ;D I only wish I even had one of those talents. I think the right side of my brain must be defective or something. XD I'm decent enough at writing, but that's it..

..Wait..uhh.. I'm good at Math? Science? Computations? @_@ I guess the left side of my brain works fine. I'm not magnificent like some of my classmates, but I'm pretty good, I think.

Warfreak, you have a scientific brain.

>__> I can't do basic geometry....

I might be very artistically oriented in every way, but I simply cannot do math and science. And I even love science! Highest I ever got was an average score in biology...

I play with fire a lot. I have a collection of random fireworks, such as m1000s and mini dynamite. Also, I am a pretty good shot with a pellet gun and/or a shotgun.

Some say that I have a very flexible imagination, but I think my imagination is subservient to my intelligence...which is by far vastly superior though mundane at best.

There's really nothing more.

1) I can speak 3 langues:
-Dutch
-English
-French (still learing but I'm good at it)

2) I can understand Vietnamese but I can't speak it.

3) I practice Judo and have the Green belt.

That's about it.  :P

You're a very diverse person, Nagumo. If I was sent on a super secret mission across Eurasia, I would take you with me. And that's no joke.

As for some of my other talents:
-I read the book "Carmilla" in less than a day.
-I find most solutions to problems(except in Math!) to be extremely obvious, whereas everyone around me is dumbfounded that I actually thought of that.
-I've never had to study for a test, because I have a great memory for things that I learn, yet right now I don't remember breakfast.
-I can procrastinate ridiculously on this and other websites, when I can and should be working on my Lego model of the Mortvia Aqueduct from CV CoD.

Awwww thanks.  :P

I wish I had that skill. You must have a lot of time to do fun stuff.

You're welcome!!  :D

You would think so, but I never get around to doing anything... so, I just sit around, usually on the computer, and waste my time away. Like I said before, I have a procrastination problem.  :P

Although i haven't drawn for a while, some say I am a pretty good artist. I don't think I'm all that good though. Plus I can only draw with a pencil.

I have the same situation, RockSerpent. I'm no where near as good as you, but I think I'm better than most average people... actually, I can only really draw castles, landscapes and environments with ease. My people are atrocious, they end up being fat, ugly, and full of ridiculous amounts of anatomical errors. Basically, I can only draw land-locked things that aren't alive (except plants). I've also recently taken an interest in painting(castles, of course), and... I like it, but I'm not that good. Though, I've just taught myself how to shade things, and focus on my source of light, to give it dimension.

Wow, you guys have a lot of talent. :)

Yeah, I have a procrastination problem too.. >.< Back in high school, I didn't study a lot, but I got through. NOW, however, what with lessons more difficult than ever before, procrastination is a BIG problem. And I still can't get rid of it. :P
