Hmm,, Lets see..
I'm quite smart, I never really got to work hard and I manage to get 80+ in all my class in one of the best school in the province..
I am really good in soccer (I play in competitive league with people 2 years older than me since I'm 13)
I'm not bad in every possible sport :P I'm quite athletic.
I'm quite good to learn new language (spanish/english)
I can remember a lot of number and historical dates...
Err, I also can stay up for a long while before getting to sleep.. And I can live months with only 5 or less hours of sleeps per night..

Hmm.. it's sad, cause when i saw this thread i drew a huge blank.. i don't really know what i'm "good" at, like i'm above average at certain things, but nothing's really over the top "good". I guess my best aspect is my weight lifting. (Keep in mind I'm just a grade 12 student who uses the school weight room during my spare period).
I'm 5'6", 145lbs. and I can bench 210lbs max. 150 lbs is what i bench for endurance, 12 reps, 3 sets. For those math people, my max benching is just under 1.5 times my body weight.
I also sprint, but since i don't train all year for track i don't win anymore, in grade 9 i ran a 12.3s 100m, grade 10, i ran a 12.0s 100m, and i didnt run last year and this year hasnt started for track yet.
But other than that, I have no talents that stand out. I'm an average student who doesn't do his homework, but plays Call of Duty instead. I'm shorter than your average male. I don't drink, etc.

I'm extremly good with computers, both Software & Hardware.

Many a time has someone gotten a problem, tried a helpline, gotten nowhere, come to me , and gotten it fixed in minutes.

I'm quite proud of that

Well.

I'm tied for number one in my junior class of like 550.
I'm a runner and a swimmer (mostly a runner).
Right now my best times are...
400 (quarter mile)- 53.1
800 (half mile)- 2:11.1
1600 (mile)- 4:50
And i ran cross country this year. 15:56 for 3 miles. Helped our team go to state

My only good swimming event is the 100 breaststroke. 1:15.6. Meh.

I used to play oboe and bassoon, but i couldn't fit band in, what with all my advanced classes and whatnot.

Thats about it. Also, I'm an extremely fast reader and test taker; I rarely study, most topics come to me naturally. I'm truly blessed when it comes to learning

Similar to the guy above I am also an extremely quick learner. I never once studied in high school and rarely ever wrote a single note down and I still Aced every class but one that I took. (I regret to mention my one non-A grade in high school was in English when I was caught cheating on a test. While I was extremely quick at learning and have a near photographic memory it took huge amounts of effort to read any book and I wasn't so good on that pop-exam on the book I hadn't started yet =P).

I have never been amazing at any sports but I competed on various teams from the age of four through college at almost every common sport out there: Baseball, Basketball, Tennis, Wrestling, Skiing, Track, Ultimate Frisbee, Swimming.

I have a girlfriend of 6 years and we have made it through long distances for many months (she is currently spending 10 months in China for college).

I am working on being an Actuary, and I successfully completed my first two exams. On a related note, I graduated from Carnegie Mellon with double majors in Math and Stats. (There is a reason I enjoy pathing with excel =P).

Bout it for now I guess.

Does proficiency at games other than guitar hero count?

Aside from that... Ummm... Errr...
I'm relativley Decent with electronics... Nothing spectacular, bit I can do more than most people I know...
And I like to think I have a decent knowledge of Astrophysics (again, nothing spectacular, just crap I've absorbed from watching way to many documentaries on space)

I guess the only main actual skill I can think of is that I can do calculations in my head pretty quickly... (faster than most of my friends can do it on a calculator - I once had a competition in my geography class, the teacher wanted to stump me, so he had everyone else get out their calculators, got someone to do a claculation, tell the rest of the class, and see if I could get it before anyone on a claculator could get it... 25 minutes later I was declared the winner
