In fact, I've even brought up your mother's talent in sewing before. As to my own talent, I'm not entirely sure what it is. I love writing, but given that I'm most of the way through a novel but completely unaware as to any way I could possibly get published..that's a long time in coming.<br /><br />Plus, I go to the same College as mom. And no matter how hard I try, I just can't live up to her 4.0 average. Oh well...I guess if anyone thinks I'm good, you should see my mother/aunt/cousins/family! =pKatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02127404064382918614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068004253242490492.post-78322545111642351252010-05-17T21:35:46.223-05:002010-05-17T21:35:46.223-05:00I'm smart and talented, and not at all self-ef...I'm smart and talented, and not at all self-effacing, but you should meet my brothers.<br /><br />One dropped out of school in eighth grade, yet got his GED and into college no problem, and just took the MCAT this month. He's going into brain research. He simplifies it all for me, but I still feel like a special ed student every time I talk to him.<br /><br />My other brother is a professional artist and does big time graphic design. He recently created the Holiday Inn Express logo. I draw stick figures; there's no comparison.Eleven Elevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05250594897018734565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068004253242490492.post-6230759702238334712010-05-17T09:35:08.305-05:002010-05-17T09:35:08.305-05:00Actually, I'm modest/humble, but not necessari...Actually, I'm modest/humble, but not necessarily self-effacing... I have a healthy amount of confidence in myself and in my writing, I just try not to be obnoxious about it. (Because I don't want to annoy people, and I don't want to jinx anything!)<br /><br />That said, I think self-effacation (is that a word?? I don't think so...) is totally normal.<br /><br />I would hope, though, that you know just how talented you are, and that you can be the first to break your family's bad habit. Maybe you'll start a chain reaction!Kristanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04771013578685419826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068004253242490492.post-26795518536998416662010-05-17T09:00:31.076-05:002010-05-17T09:00:31.076-05:00Great.
