Everyone I know has an interesting story. Something in their life that was so life changing and out of nowhere that shaped them into the person they are today. I don't really have that. Is that a bad thing? No. Maybe I just don't remember it, I truly have no idea. What I do know is some of my talents. I can type quite quickly, and actually learned how to type through personal experience; never taking any typing classes that legitimately helped my typing ability or learning from someone else. Just using the computer a lot and learning the keys makes me a typist that is much faster than the average person. I still do look down at the keys every once in a while, but that's because I don't use the "home row" strategy. I just let my fingers do the work themselves. No need to stay in one place. Also, I'm above average at Guitar Hero too. I've played Guitar Hero since I was about 5, and still play it off and on today. It's truly a great experience and highly, highly increased my hand-eye coordination. Except for typing, obviously. But I can write things down without having to look down and check for errors, or just be able to smoothly move things around due to that heightened hand-eye coordination. I think those types of games are really amazing and teach a very good skill to have while also having lots of fun doing it. Those sorts of games are the gifts of modern society.
