They say that you should chew every bite exactly 25 times before swallowing.

Hmm... I don't think I have very much in the way of Special Skills, but there are these:

- I can speak, read, write and understand three languages (Danish, English, German) fluently (or borderline-fluently in German's case) and speak a good bit of Fangirl Japanese.
- I read katakana and hiragana without much trouble.
- I make A's in most school subjects except gym and Math
- I have personally made it through the entire archives of Hamster's City
- I sew costumes very well - won a craftsmanship award for the first cosplay outfit I ever made. I can probably NOT sew clothes that actually work for everyday use, though.
- I used to be a pretty good miniature painter, though it's been a while by now.
- I know all sorts of useless geek trivia about comics, cartoons, toys and dinosaurs.
- I can sculpt and do pottery good enough to get into a local youth exhibit three times.
- I can do basic knitting.
- I actually understand IKEA instructions.
- I can beat most people I know at Trivial Pursuit.
- And finally, I have the ability to make every potted plant that gets inside my house die, even the cacti.

I'm generally good at trivia games unless it involves celebrities/actors or anything current in pop culture. I'm hopeless with names.

I actually was a part of the academic team in high school, but I usually caught the random questions that fell through.
