Are you really good at something

Example: Back in high school a friend in my circle of friends was really good at soccer (goalie) - but he was so lazy and didn't like playing. It was funny in a way (his personality) but also frustrated us because of his attitude. He almost didn't tryout that year but we talked him into it. If he put forth an effort he could have easily gotten a scholarship to play in college.

Any of you good at something, but choose not to do it because you hate it?

I am really good at making girls turned off.
 
i swear to god, being good at math sucks. you end up helping everyone else sometimes.

i'm no dr pizza, but i often end up helping people. especially in my numerical methods class, since i have a little bit better understanding of code (not that i really do much)

Yeah I've been getting stuck helping people out in my weather & climate class. We have in class assignments that I usually breeze through in 5 mins, while it takes the idiots that sit by me 30 mins just to grasp the basics. Kinda cuts into my in class neffing 🙁
 
I make a googd living in IT and don't particularly like it. It's ok... the problem solving is fun, I've just never been that into it.

I really want to be a psych prof, or a school psychologist, or both. I'm kind of on my way there. Hope it works out.

i'm taking an economics class (micro-econ).. oh my god... the level of math is next to stupefying.. as in a 5th grader could probably do it.

so for 4 hours of my week, i laugh about how easy that class is 😛
