    When I dance, I feel free. It's like Second Nature for me. I'm getting better at acting too, it feels like I'm inside that character's head. I always make melodies in my head too. What comes naturally to you?

    I don't think anything really came naturally to me. I feel like I had to work hard at everything I like. I enjoy cross country, but I had to work hard to get into the top spot. I enjoy photography, but I had to teach it to myself and I started my own club to find other teenage photographers so we could learn together. I enjoy piano, but I've been playing that for 10 years and I've always had to work hard at it because I was never really good at it, despite all of the stereotypes.

    As far as traits, I naturally have honesty. I hate lying and try to avoid doing so at all costs. It's really hard for me to lie, too. I feel awful when I do it (unless I'm lying to a person I don't like). I guess it's funny for me, a transgendered and pan person, to say that, but it's true. I'm also naturally very competitive, whether in sports, art, or anything where I can prove myself to be better than someone else. I feel like I have a lot of determination, but I think that was from being competitive and doing sports.

    I used to dance, but I grew out of it. Take advantage of the talents that come naturally to you.

    With enough practice, using a sword became natural to me. I am quite clumsy but people don't think so. I just try really hard and when I klutz... :icon_redf

    Anything musical. I've picked up several instruments that I've taught myself by ear. I've also written a few piano pieces.

    I'd also say anything horse-related. Whether drawing, or riding, or just reading them. My mother always said that I have a "way" with them. I also picked up riding extremely quickly.

    Writing used to come naturally for me, but now it seems to be taking a little too much time, and it even becomes stressful. Drawing feels good, though. I just lose myself in it. I rarely think when I draw. I'm never like "This head has to be like this" or "these legs are too weird". All I see are lines, and all I draw are lines. The drawing itself becomes clear to me when I'm done! It doesn't always work this way, but when it does, it's definitely relaxing, because I don't think about anything, and I feel happy, like a person without any issues at all!

    Drawing and generally art. I always draw and doodle in my sketch book, usually random things. I'm taking it as part of my Gcse's as well.

    Sarcasm, fighting, activism, eye-rolling, writing, suspicion of authority, argument, archery, that sort of thing.

    Drawing.

    That's it. And I don't even do it 'correctly'.

    My judgment and improvisation of certain situations is better than most. One of the reasons i am quite good at most shooting games.

    Overanalysing things. By far. Much to far.
    Writing.

    Drawing, though that doesn't mean I don't study, I do, a lot. According to other people writing as well, though I'm stuck whenever I try to sit down and write a story in my free time (if it's for school or when I'm bored during class I can). I also have a way with computers. I've been in love with them ever since my very first one. ~<3

    Languages, geography, grammar...I've taken several language classes and gotten 100% on every final; it's just something that I have the faculty for.

    I found that in my life nothing has come easily for me or is like 'second nature' I only wish I had a talent or something that seems as easy as breathing if that makes any sense.

    ok ok seriously I have collected DC comics since I was 10 so I think it's fair to say it comes naturally for me to spend hours on end reading comics

    As sad as it may sound I think pleasing people comes naturally to me, be it for better or for worse.

    Completely different subject but, "sammy1" I love your avatar!

    I was hoping you were talented at the care and maintenance of Italian nobles.
    Ah well. :slight_smile:
