Here we go:
-- I'm more flexible than you would think to look at me. Not the feet behind head thing, BUT my elbows bend BACKWARDS further than anyone elses (including my sister Happy Lizard, but only just). So far backward, in fact, that I can get the insides of my elbows to touch each other. This is NOT a bonus in archery, the string scraps along the elbow. Also, put your hands together as though you are praying (Christian style) now try to bend your fingers back so your palms are still together (make the widest V with your fingers as you can). I estimate that my fingers can make a V 90 degrees apart (hope everyone got that.) Which is better than anyone else I've ever met AND (added bonus) really creeps some people out (eg, one of the trombones in concert band). This one's not so good, my thunb does this bending backwards so that it looks someones snaped it at ninety , but I know people who can do that better (well, my mum if you must know).
-- I can play Bb clarinet (hopefully) well
-- I can play piano well
-- I can play snippets of other instruments such as flute and sax.
-- I can read a book in an evening (Well, not LotR of anything like that but still...)
-- I'm short (I like being short)
-- I'm good at art and have several art awards.
-- I'm a straight A student!!!
-- I have mental blanks. Like I'm in the middle of a conversation, then either I suddenly have no idea what I just said or what I was going to say, or I forget this silly thing which I should by all rights know off by heart (like what musical note is on the middle line, that was a really bad mental blank I had once...)
And most of that stuff is bad stuff!
