just realized i might be cool???

#like i know how to program and cook and bake and do calligraphy and watercolor and can sort of draw #right now i do archery and i learned the basics of a bunch of martial arts (muay thai + kung fu + tae kwon do) #and i learned the basics of fencing #i used to shave with a straight razor and i sharpen my own knives #im an ok rock climber and tree climber #i did folk dancing for 2 years #i learned basic sailing and fishing and know how to swim #ive done 2 50km hikes and was on my highschool's rugby team #i tutor people in math and python #i can read ipa #and can sorta read hangeul cyrillic and chinese and farsi #i know the basics of building a fire #i built a giant chickenwire sculpture of a fish once #my friend liked one of my paintings so much its hanging in her house #i know how to book bind and taught it to my sister #she and i built a bookshelf from scratch together #i have a jacket i made myself out of scraps #i can make a brooch in less than 5 minutes #i have operated a nuclear reactor #one time i freaked out my professor by being able to recite the first bit of the pirates of panzance modern general song without fucking up #i can do the thing where you open a bottle by hitting it on a corner #oh i forgot i did capoeira and fencing for a bit! #oh i recently learned how to wrap gifts without using any tape! #ok this has gotten really long #im not doing this to show off or anything #this is genuinely the first time i realized some of this stuff might be impressive to people #since ive got this whole jack of all trades master of none thing going on #except i hang out with a shit ton of masters of one #but like fuck dude #was it kurt vonnegut who had the quote about like the things you do dont stop mattering when you put them down
