skills

skills I would like to have someday:

guitar
photography
calligraphy
poetry
sketching
sign language
rock climbing
killing spiders
keeping plants alive other than cacti
folding paper cranes and turning them into mobiles
lying to keep a surprise a secret
listening to a political debate without saying anything
hang-gliding
bird-watching
kissing
...
yeah I guess I really did just write that.

  1. Bird watching is the only skill worth having.

  2. christina, i am going to disagree with ben and say that kissing and lying are the only talents worth having.

    seriously, i am good at both.

    and i guess killing spiders, but that isn't really a talent, that's more of you getting over your ridiculous "fear" of bugs and nature. once you become one with nature you won't need to kill spiders and keeping plants alive and watching birds will be a cinch.

    also, please do not start making mobiles of paper cranes. that's an activity strictly reserved for old asain ladies.

    calligraphy could make you some major money. partner with a wedding planner and you will never have to do real work again.

    you would ...

    watching birds is not a cinch, it's a science, with a lot of specific information to know, and you have to know where and when to go and how to use binoculars.

    but i want to do real work.
