    I'm very good on apps like fruit ninja and doodle jump
    :sigh:

    What about Temple Run? I suck at that so bad.

    this autumn will tell me whether or not i excel at football or am just 'good' at it.

    EDIT: less football, more... refusing to lose.

    Hardly anything, sadly

    I think I'm pretty good at spelling and basic grammar (shame I don't have a good vocabulary to match), and I'm quite flexible.

    eating chocolate, moaning about work, planning to do revision but not doing it, these are just a few of my amazing talents.

    I'm good at dancing (I actually did classical dance from age 5 to 18 but I then decided to quit)
    Also I'm studying law, which I'm not completely enjoying studying, but I'm doing pretty good so far

    I'm really good at making revision timetables. I just very rarely actually stick to them.

    I suppose I would say I'm good at lots of things - cooking, running, rock climbing, chemistry, biology, maths, debating. At least in the sense I can do them at all.

    But I'm not absolutely amazing if you see what I mean . I can climb about 6a+/6b (on a good day ) which is fine but nothing that special. My 5k PB is 19:12 and whilst I may place well at the local parkrun I'm hardly county material. And when it comes to academic results while I may be on track for an A* in A-level maths someone in the year above has 100% in every single module this year ...

    I guess it depends what you base "good" on ! I'd like to be outstanding at something but frankly that takes dedication and time - neither of which I have in vast amounts. I'll settle for being OK at lots of things.
