One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Got about 20 kids to settle down long enough to teach them... *drops mic*
Teach, Learn, Share
What I can teach: I'm a a master of none, but I can guide you to a few good resources, be it sketching, guitar, traveling, or writing.
What I'd like to learn: the list is too long
What I can share: Hmm, if you're not into cooking, I'd be happy to try my hand at it. Or, if you need a book/movie/music recommendation, I'd be happy give you one. Otherwise, besides a helping hand with some common chores, my company must be enough.
What I Can Share with Hosts
A... friendly face? What do you want from me?! *cries into hands*... There is a section above this that should cover it.
