I'm a pretty good Balloon Twister/Artist. I actually made Guy Fieri out of ballons and gave it to him. Google and you'll see it.

I've found that if I pick up a new musical instrument, I can play it well after about five minutes of experimenting. I'm hoping to pursue some musical career when I'm older. :D

I'm also a good balloon twister myself! I can also speedsolve a 3x3 rubik's cube. I really like cubing! My record is 1:29 seconds. I'll get WAY Faster eventually. I'll post a video of my solving the cube. :D

Unfortunately, I have only just 3x3 speedcubes in my district as far as it goes. So far, no 4x4. Although I think there is a shop where they sell 4x4's...

I don't think that I'm good at anything simply because I keep changing my hobbies, so I can't improve in doing that hobby(not including origami, of course).

I used to play piano, but then I quit 3 years ago.
I'd say I'm a good skier and golfer. I can go down double black diamonds and I shot 74 on a 6500-yard course, par 71. I also have perfect pitch. What happened to this forum? I think it's interesting.

Yes! I too, am a speedcuber, but only for the 2x2 and 3x3. I have a 4x4 and 5x5 but they're not nearly as enjoyable. My best 2x2 time is 3 seconds and my best 3x3 time is 12.5 seconds.

I have taken 2 years of Spanish at school and I am almost fluent. I am struggling to learn Chinese.

I can juggle two balls in one hand and 3 balls in two hands. I am trying to learn 4 balls (two in each hand) but I am not ambidexterous. I am practicing by writing the alphabet with my left hand multiple times.

Also, I am relatively good at tennis and ping pong.

There seems to be many speed cubers here :D I can solve a 3x3 in an average of 40-50 seconds, and my record is 34. (does that count as a speed cuber? probably not)

I've been playing guitar for about 5 years now and I pretty much only play metal music, lol
I also have a bass and keyboard but dont play them as often.

I've been able to speak both english and spanish basically my entire life, but I can't speak a word of any other language.

I taught myself to write with my left hand (I'm right handed) and I have 2 different handwritings with my right hand.

If I have to say something negative then I'm terrible at just about every sport ever invented :P
