i can write exceptionally well. essays, prose, articles, poetry... anything. i'm seriously good at it, and i didn't even know until high school. teachers kept asking me to join the literary magazine club and would constantly commend me for my written work. i became the second editor (aka the guy in charge) of all time for my school's journalism program and wrote the front page article for the annual newspaper. it was and still is considered the best front page article the school has seen.
i'm also a really good photographer. i haven't used my camera in months, though. i used to go out and take pictures when my depression wasn't as bad. now, my dslr sits in my closet and collects dust. another reason why i stopped taking photos was because i went to college without it last semester.
oh, and i love to play the guitar. i wouldn't say it's an "odd" or "weird" talent (almost everyone i know has played a stringed instrument like guitar, bass, or ukulele before) but i'm pretty good at it and the rate i've been learning it at is strangely quick. i started playing consistently when i was 12 and then stopped for 6 years. then, when i got to college last semester, i took it up again because i met some friends who were really into making music. i could only play 5 songs and maybe 3 chords (i preferred tabbing at the time) when i first met those people back in november of 2019. now, it's february and i know at least 60 songs and can play just about any chord (though i hate barre chords because my hands are really fucking tiny). i can only imagine how much more i'll improve by the end of the year!
