<p>Just to get an idea as to how eclectic our group really is :P</p>

<p>Hmmm some of mine (albeit fairly nerdy talents):</p>

<p>-Dance Dance Revolution (to any of you that play: AAA on 10 footers)
-Rubik’s Cube (can solve them pretty quickly, anywhere from 15-30ish seconds; can also do them blindfolded in a few minutes)
-The fine art of driving around tight corners at insanely high (70 MPH) speeds</p>

<p>Rubik’s Cube - that is too cool!</p>

  • ambidextrous
  • can wink with both eyes
  • can tap-dance and do salsa
  • can bend over backwards
  • can recite all the books of the Bible in order, in about 1 minute flat
  • can cram for an exam in a night, and remember it until the next day :p</p>

<p>Did you mention the DDR on your app?haha.</p>

<p>Mine:
-picking up accents (this can be embarrassing at times and really useful at others)…what should I go w/ for Princeton? Southern? News anchor (a.k.a. no accent)? British ;)? Ahh, the decisions…
-predicting election results (to brag a little :):I got 1 state wrong [WI] and got the relative margins of victory right for all but a few in the presidential race; got all the senate wins right)</p>

<p>how can you turn @ 70mph? That is insane, seems physically impossible.</p>

<p>Kebree does a beautiful sketching of Princess Diana (RIP)</p>

<p>I think I’ll never live that one down =)
…the one of Bloom was actually a commission, just so everyone knows that I don’t sit here downloading & sketching celebrity pics like a fruitcase…</p>

6

<p>I can sleep for 15 hours at a stretch on weeekends and not sleep at all on weekdays</p>

7

<p>no sleep? whoa, are you human? I could never go w/o sleep for more than 24 hours…</p>

<p>yeah, me too Akash - i went 3 nights on 2 hours sleep last week :eek:, still don’t understand how i did it!</p>

10

<p>Kebree: No but I mentioned the cube :stuck_out_tongue: And it’s very possible to turn around tight corners at high speeds =) Although I wouldn’t recommend doing it with other cars around…</p>

11

<p>-I can raise one eyebrow.
-I can sit in the splits for 20+ minutes if I wanted to. (Yay for being a ballet/jazz dancer!)
-I have a massive vocabulary. (e.g. I’m such an English nerd that for fun in the 7th grade I memorized Barron’s 1,100 Words You Need to Know.)
