So what kind of talent do you have? Did you ever perform in a talent show? Do you have a talent that no one knows about? What are they???

I have nothing that's like impressive lol... I write poetry, I sing to myself and daughter lol, um I'm gifted with the ability to teach myself anything I wish to teach myself, but I think anyone can do that one haha.

    I used to dance in competitions and talent shows. I danced a few years ago in an alumni dance and now I dance with the other moms! That is pretty much it

    I can draw and paint really well, but I'm a makeup artist so if you can do one you can usually do the others as well seeing as art seems to be pretty fluid.

    I do have a talent for singing. I took lessons for about 7 years and did musical theatre as long as I can possibly remember. Got several scholarships to college for it as well. It's more of a hobby now, and I'm actually performing the National Anthem at a minor league baseball game (Round Rock Express--Texas Rangers AAA team) this July!
  • I create designs on the computer and other things like that.. I created a digital menu for his shop, and he said it is better than the ones he was going to pay for, so I guess I'm good. I taught myself how to play Fur Elise and Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven, so I guess I'm good at that too.. I don't know what else. :)

    I used to play piano when I was a few years younger. I did perform in a couple recitals until the fear of performing in front of people got too intense. I did keep practicing for a long time after that, mostly just for fun. I don't actually own a piano so I can't play as much as I'd like to.

    I don't know if you consider this a talent, but I'm extremely organized and I have been known to completely tear apart rooms/areas and completely overhaul it to make it much more clean and organized. My husband loves it, because it gets him out of cleaning sometimes lol.

    Also, I won a few awards in school for essay writing and my baking ability is pretty famous with my friends and family. :smile:

    I come from a family of very talented people. My grandmother and grandpa draw and paint, my great uncle was a famous cartoonist in PA. My mom was an incredible pianist and singer. I got most of my family's talents and I'm an incredible writer, or so I've been told. Too bad I have never had the confidence to publicly share any of my talents. :/

    Piano! took lessons for 10 years, made it to state level competitions several times, play for church and choir sometimes. I would like to say singing, cause I loooove to sing, especially to the radio! But I don't think I'm that good. And I'm pretty crafy, love cake making/decorating that's something new I've discovered I can do!

  • I can pick up an instrument and play it in about an hour ... no matter what instrument. I love to sing ... but I never get to anymore.

    I also can pull my finger out of joint and replace it ... without it hurting ... over and over again!

    I took gymnastics and dance for 10 years while growing up. I ride horses, but haven't competed in a long time. I love music an I can play a bunch of different instruments, but I really want to learn how to play the guitar.

    That would be cool to hear! Do you have any youtube videos up?

    As for my talents, I have a few. The one I like the most is designing and creating my own clothes. Nobody ever has the same outfits I do. And...it is cool when someone says, "You have the cutest clothes! Where do you get them?"
