    I'm good at learning new languages, remembering small details of a person/place/situation, travel planning, parallel parking, finding parking spaces in extremely crowded places like malls, packing light for a trip. I'm good at organizing events and keeping everyone else organized. I'm also very good at listening.

    One of my biggest strengths is writing.
    I can write anything well from a cover letter to a potential employer, to a full story for a book. I actually am a poet, and do poetry slams every Wednesday night at a cool bar/coffee shop downtown Columbus in front of a crowd. These poems are sometimes explicit, sometimes funny, and sometimes serious...I do it all. Lots of fun. :)

    So how about you?

    Poetry slams? how awesome!

    I'm supposedly good at graphic design. I see myself as rather average in that area.

    It's really fun! Especially since I do the slams with my dad. He is a really good poet. I love his work.
    And it's funny you mention Graphic Design. I am a full-time Art Director, and do Graphic Design, Web Design, and Interactive Media.

    Ok..I'm jealous!! You are doing exactly where I'd like to take my career. I do graphic/web design (more like maintenance) for a university. It's not challenging or very creative here AT ALL. Although, great pay, good benefits. Can't complain.

    Photography. I love it. Every waking minute. I specialize in.... everything. Ha, seems like it since I don't specialize in a single genre even though everybody advises me that I must limit my focus (no pun intended). I do equestrian events, infant and toddler photography, maternity, weddings and senior pictures. It's just so much fun.

    Now if I had enough ambition to make our business websites splashy, I could focus on what I love. Pun intended. :wink:

    Its a very creative brain trapped in a non-creative body!!!!

    If only my hands could create what I see in my minds eye.

    But I make hand painted wine glasses with cartoony faces for my friends.
    I make glass marbelized christmas ornaments.
    I make puppets, and I make jewelry.
    All in my free time and it comes in spurts, so right now I am not making anything because I am too busy with Grandson and health.
    There are pics in my profile if you want to check stuff out!!

    I'm an excellent baker---and several MFP members that have received care packages would agree :P

    And being a flirt/tease. I'm quite good at that too :P

    Written communication...re-writing, editing, etc.
    Listening and relating to other people...and their viewpoints.
    Diffusing tense situations.
    My sense of humor is pretty "eclectic". :D
    I love most types of music and sing a lot when I'm driving, but I may be my only fan.
    I loved playing piano when I was younger...will have to buy one someday. :)
    Right now I'm pretty good at making healthyish food choices and getting myself to the gym. Yay!!

    I'm good at pissing people off--the art of offence. I'm so good at it that half the time I don't know that I'm unintentionally doing it.

    Weirdly enough strip poker. I can't win at normal poker to save my life, but I've never lost more than my socks during a game of strip poker. And I'm really good at baking

    anything academic. I'm going to Southern California for grad school right now which is ranked like 4th in the country for my program. I also know more useless facts and trivia than any person should ever know. I remember most everything I read...not like Reid in Criminal Minds but more so than any other person I have ever met.

    I can tell you whatever you want to know about resources law and climate change law. Not many people do want to know but at least I am paid well for trhis

    I am also an amazing cook according to people that eat what I serve. This does not pay well.

    Proofreading other people's writing (menus, books -- you'd be surprised at how many typos there are in published books! - and general stuff).

    Good at being silent and then making a witty comment, which usually suddenly silences everyone else before they get into laughing fits.
