I like to think that I am good/alright at:

  • guitar
  • (thinking I can) sing well
  • being chummy with everyone
  • giving out life-saving advice
  • drawing
  • cruising on my skateboard
  • being witty
  • charming people
  • being funny

I am really good at/with:

  • amusing myself (and on good days, everyone else)
  • loving people (it's serious business, I mean my love)
  • letting everyone know how I feel about stuff
  • eating atrocious amounts of food and remaining skinny, skinny, skinny ('tis the life)
  • wishful thinking
  • "winging it"
  • missing people terribly
  • singing really well (in the shower)
  • hugs
  • writing
  • sleeping
  • "selling it"
  • living
  • collecting random, pointless detritus in the deepest crevices of my bags/wallet/pencil case/jeans
  • people skills
  • appreciating the smallest of things (I hope that didn't come out wrong)
  • not hesitating
  • talking
  • showers
  • standing up for people I care about
  • certain accents
  • expressing my feelings very vividly at the movies
  • borrowing stuff and never giving them back (not my fault, they either move out of the country forever/never want it back)
  • sign-making
  • keeping up conversations (I really am good at that)
  • inking out my precise feelings
  • being a shrink for strangers and friends (I'm like everyone's go-to girl)
  • doing what I feel like
  • kids (kids love me!)

I wish I wasn't so good at:

  • attracting guys I haven't the desire to attract instead of the one, single guy I do (it's always a cosmic misunderstanding)
  • spilling food everygoddamntime I serve myself something
  • injuring myself
  • breaking everything I touch (I swear, it's like I'm either a really awful superhero or a really lame supervillain)
  • not knowing how to swim
  • forgetting relevant information/retaining really, really useless trivia

I wish I was better at:

  • commitment (to lesser things, with big deals, I'm really quite phenomenal)
  • being discreet about feelings
  • skating
  • guitar
  • singing
  • interpreting body language
  • being awesome
  • German
  • not losing my shit all the freaking time

I am not so good at:

  • holding still
  • waiting
  • waking up early (early: 10 am and earlier)
  • sharing my food
  • jumping and missing the ground
  • having superpowers
  • having 20/20 vision
  • financially negotiating with people I know personally
  • being disappointed
  • being discreet about anything at all (I wear my heart on my sleeve)
  • not letting technology around me fail spontaneously
