    " Self-Taught Skills || Chit-Chat "



    We don't always need a teacher , around , to tell us how to do this and how to do that . Sometimes , it's possible for us to learn new skills without any outside interference

    For instance , I've become interested in photoshop since I was 20 . I still remember the first time I launched this program ; I was totally overwhelmed because it looked like something I'd never be able to deal with . All these options and tools turned this program into a puzzle ; and yet I decided to take the first step . As a beginner , things would be messed up and mistakes would be uncountable . But when I decided to take this program seriously , I started looking for tutorials and guides , and I worked my tail off on practicing every single tutorial I could find . Actually , it took me years of practice to reach this current level . I'm sure It would've taken half of them I, if an expert happened to be around . But still , there is nothing wrong with being a self-taught artist

    :)

    Now , let's talk about cooking ! I had to cook on my own , when I was a college student , because then I had to live in a private dormitory . So , there was no way for my mother to cook for me . I still consider myself lucky because my neighbors were good at this stuff . So , I benefited from their tips and their cooking methods . But in cooking , one can't rely on other people's tips alone to make good food ; The personal touch was needed too . I'm really proud of my cooking because It always tastes good , even at the time when I was still a beginner

    .. I don't know what else I'm good at . But as soon as I remember , I'll be coming back here
    and I hope you tell me about your self-taught skills and share your experiences with us , too

    ;)

    ? C'mon guys , don't you have any skills at all
    :p


    I'm not sure if plucking eyebrows is considered a skill . But yeah , I taught myself how to do it , after spending the whole time begging my mom to do it for me . She'd simply wiggle her way out of it . So , when it got a little humiliating to ask for her help , I grabbed my little mirror and took a long look at my thick eyebrows . I tried to figure out the best way to pluck them without messing them up .Before I got started , I took a couple of deep breaths to reduce my fear ! . I still can't believe that the first experience was already a success and that I was able to do it right

        I think it's pretty unfair to hate such a beautiful language


        . But I'm glad you paid a visit to this poor abandoned forum
        .. I truly appreciate it

        As for your knitting talent , it impresses me to know about it . My mother used to do this stuff , when we were still a little family . But then , she had to give it up as she became a mother of six children

        :)

          I know that English language is a great language
          but I hate it because I had to study it in the university

          and I failed ,so I didin't complete my studying

          And about the knitting I stop it too
          because my children increased to four and the works increased too
          .
          Thanks for you Zainab
          And I glad to visit this part.

            I think you hate English the same way I hate French , despite the fact that it's our second official language . So , I can't help but use it once in a while

            We always have to give up something to take care of more important things . I'm sure it wouldn't be easy for you to balance between knitting and being a mother

            God bless you & your family
