I like me some Guitar Hero and Rock Band :) Can't stand playing songs like TTFAF, though. I like playing songs I would actually listen to rather than ones just meant for showing off.

I'm good with computers, electronics and most things related.

I used to do a lot of photography, but my not as much the past few years because I haven't had much time and my camera needs fixed.

Snow skiing is another thing I like to do, although not so much in the past 4 years because I moved to Ohio, the land of flatness. I have been doing since I was about 5, which is about 20 years ago now.

I'm also a medical student, so I guess you could say I'm talented at studying :)

If anyone wants to learn how to solve a Rubik's cube, I would highly recommend these tutorial videos:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsQIoPyfQzM
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IW_BBp3FPMQ


That's where I learned how to solve one properly, though the first few times I did it without any help, though it took me weeks. From there the other sizes kinda follow the same patterns, though they do take longer and I am by no means very good. I can do the 2x2 in about 30 seconds, 3x3 takes about 1:15, 4x4 takes 10 minutes, 5x5 takes half an hour and the 6x6 takes me about an hour.

Guitar Hero I guess... have managed to beat through the fire and flames three times now, and failed a fourth time at 99% ;D

Other than that... Well, I play trombone and is quite good at it, if I may say so myself. However, because of my dental braces it sounds like crap right now and my lip stamina is also crap, but I will get rid of them in two weeks  ;D

Also, I play guitar, nothing breathtakingly impressive though.

and I also playz teh nose flute >_>

EDIT: weird, it changed "t eh" to "the"... Guess it's some spelling check kicking in or something

My friend plays trombone, he said I should learn ;D

I play Guitar, bass, Vibraphone, Double bass, Xylophone, Glockenspiel, Drums, Mandolin, Piano, Keyboard. My other talents are for maths, physics, chemistry, computing, and English when I can actually be bothered. I used to be really good at technical drawing, but I've not done it for over a year. :)

I work hard for the only thing Im good at, and thats being smart.

I guess its a talent of mine to manage an honours class and extension classes and still chill with the "cool group" in highschool, and go to movies every friday night.

Lasers AND cool?

Whoa...

Who says you can't be cool and like lasers? ;D Other people don't need to know that you have geeky hobbies, and if they don't know they won't make a bad assumtion that you are a nerd. ::) I don't really bring out the geeky side of me to someone until I am friends with them. ;D

Edit: bad wording
