Here's an easy topic. Name something you think you're good at, then something you consider yourself to be awful at.
me:
Good- I'd say I'm decent at art, still have a lot to learn, but every artist does. I like to try to make people *feel* something.
Bad- I'm a terrible cook. I don't time anything so it either all burns or turns out raw. My greatest achievements have been setting fire to a pan of water and metling a musical mug to a microwave.
Your turn!

Good - Skiing. It's the only sport I ever got into and I'm damn good at it.
Bad - Math. I'm so slow at it and often wrong.

Good -- I live for my art. I believe that I've some skill at it, and I'll keep trying to improve, no matter how hard things get around me.
Bad -- I have a nasty habit of running things I'm enthusiastic about into the ground, and irritating a lot of people while I'm at it.

Good-I guess art, but I've still got a LOT to improve on
Bad-ehhhhh...if I get insanely frustrated or angry at someone, I'm calm for most of the time, then have a sudden outburst of yelling...yeah, that's what happened when I faced Bomamba.

Good - with Frisbees. Especially in disc golf. I'd probably be good at Ultimate too if I was in shape. =( The defensive part of Ultimate gets the better of me because I can't keep up with the other players. But that can be fixed!
Bad - at basketball. What makes it worse is that I'm tall, so a lot of people automatically assume I'm a good player.

Good: I like to make people laugh whenever I can, and I think I'm pretty good at it
Bad: I'm terrible in stuff like interviews, because I can't sit still when I'm forced to :/

Good: I'm pretty good at typing quickly. I can go for about 65 to 75 words a minute. I type so fast that I leave a lot of typos everywhere though.
Bad: As much as I hate to admit it I don't think I'm good at art. In fact I practically quit after my 12th grade art class was over with which is odd because I had been drawing since kindergarten. I don't believe I really have talent. I just redrew stuff pros have already created so it's not really special.

Lynne, I must say that I'm the opposite of you. XD
Good: Cooking. I'm the house cook where I live and despite that my techniques often bomb, the food still turns out tasty.
Bad: Art/Math. The best I can pull off is something with a ruler and a compass that's horribly abstract and makes no sense. As for math... I'm repeating College Algebra for the third time?

Good- Art and writing, however I'm not very popular at school so people tend to put my work down on sheer principle rather than take the time to look at it. They think that just because it's me, anything I do automatically sucks.
Bad- I have a really, really hard time controlling my temper and will often get into trouble for it. BIG trouble. Like, cops and school officials yelling at me big trouble.

Good - Programming and Math, which go hand in hand anyway.
Bad - Finishing projects that I start. It always ends up half way done, then I go "Oooh! What about this new project!" (Note: This won't happen with Samba, I have external motivation for that )

Good - Besides sculpting, people say that I'm really good at doing voices... You know, cartoon voices. I can imitate many cartoons, game characters, and other things. (maybe I'll show everyone later)
I'd like to be a voice actor someday... Ive always loved Mel Blanc's work, animation, and other veteran voice actors...
Bad - (not sure of this fits) in my opinion I'm bad at having self control, either too much or too little... this falls under several of categories like eating, behaving/acting normal, thinking, socializing, MONEY, timing, talking, decision making, etc...

hmm... Interesting topic TRiPPY a great way to get others to know one another as well... I'm impressed
lets see... Good... well... People SAY I'm wise... usually because I help them with problems and end conflicts between individuals... But I think the main reason ppl think that is because while I'm doing things I enjoy coming up with of various phrases and sayings... and thus the more ppl get to know me, without knowing my age or appearance, the older they think I am One person whom I spend lots of time with in an online game simply chatting thought I was in my late 40's. lol XD
I think I'm more insane than wise though
Bad, I'm shy, and, although I'm easy to get along with, I'm hard to get to know as I typically don't open up to anyone
yet ppl open up to me... hmm... wonder why?

Good - I'm great at problem solving and organisation, with experience in event organisation and project direction. I have experience in all sorts of areas, from electronics, film, radio, design, web design, PC construction and maintenance, cooking, astronomy. I tend to dabble in many areas.
Bad - I lack motivation, most of my work tends to fall by the wayside, I desperately need someone to give me a good kick up the rear every now and then.

Good: (I know this is gonna be cliche but...) Art. Whether its Music, dancing or drawing, I have been interested in art. I was in dance class in 1st, 2nd and 6th grade. I have been drawing since I was 6. Im learning how to play several instruments. In its many forms, art has been a big part of my life.
Bad: Anxiety/Depression. It was hard for me, because it really hit in 4/5th grade. I couldnt really be a happy kid because I was always worrying about something. Heck, I still have attacks, but its rare. It has been a ball and chain for me, and I wish sometimes I was better.

Good- I'm pretty smart.
Bad- I'm so lazy. I could easily take on another AP class (in addition to the AP Language & Composition that I already have), but wouldn't do any of the work for a while.

Bad- At not talking for an hour and a half about somethng no one cares about- Tales- for example, is my current obsession.

This is interesting...
Good- I am a wealth of (often useless) information. If I like something, I tend to know virtually everything about it.
Bad- I obsess. If I like something, It tends to overtake my life. I buy the trinkets, make it the topic of conversation, all that craziness.
