Showing off...

[PearlieMae]

I'm a little shy at singing - unusual for a Mer, I know - and though I play sax, guitar and ukulele, I'm no virtuoso. I've seen so many awesome videos of you all in various threads doing a variety of things, both mer and non-mer, I thought maybe we might compile a thread of talents.

Show us what you do!

Me, I am a (retired) comedian.

Awesome! I'm just going to post a link to this thread: http://mernetwork.com/index/showthread.php?6232-Pics-of-Costumes-amp-Gowns-I-make!-%28PIC-HEAVY%29

I also am a burlesque performer, belly dancer, horseback rider (english) & just started ballroom dancing.

I'm not very good at sitting still. ;)

Oh, dear... Good thing it is a quiet Friday at work, because I just sat at my desk and HOWLED with laughter on the 'festive' part...!!! Thank you, PearlieMae, that made my day! :lol:

I enjoy singing, I have two harps that I play with (someday I will get formal musical training, and actually learn how to play them!), I sew some and love most fiber arts, I LOVE to cook, I am a gardener, I used to be a professional pyrotechnician, I juggle, I write poetry (and even let people read it sometimes!), and Miyu got me interested in making bead necklaces!

[PearlieMae]

Thanks, Mers! Who knew we are such a talented bunch! I look forward to reading about others' accomplishments!

And Yulia, dat hair has a life of it's own sometimes!

Ech, happy to make you howl!

A comedian?! That is AWESOME! I just started speech and I've been pondering comedy. Any tips?

I used to be a dancer for 9 years until I went onto college. I did lots of lyrical/contemporary dancing along with jazz, tap, hip hop, and a little acrobatics when I was younger. I'm starting speech now and I'm on a speech team at my school. I'm endeavoring into your your field more. Any advice would be awesome xD

[Mermaid Harmony]

That was awesome. I was dying, man, just fabulous.

I enjoy makeing cakes and pies, something I got from my mother, as she always made fancy b-day cakes. I sew clothes and cuddle toys, at the moment I make ponies, but I have other patterns as well. I used to draw alot, but that muse has gone sleeping I think, cause lately it's no more then a few doodles.

[PearlieMae]
