Trying to remember your skills you've accidentally picked up through fandoms and hobbies is difficult when you don't think they're actual skills because you're self taught in them all is so fun.

#I know they're skills that can help me but their origins are what make me think eh I don't need to put that down #Yes you do bitch - if you want a job you better but down that skill or so help me #Anyway I also forget that because I was always so indecisive about what career I wanted I tried out a lot of things to see if I'd like it #I technically have experience in teaching - had my own class despite being in eighth grade - but didn't like it #I designed games levels through a website where they give you the basic tools bc I was bored #And had my family try and test them as a way to revise if they were too difficult or confusing #I've made several websites that I completely forgot about bc they were for school projects lol #And I always forget that I used to design clothes for years and would make those designs on a small scale for dolls #I also had to remind myself that I can use my experience in writing - which can extend to editing #And I always forget I know how to draw #Like am I am expert at any of these? No #But can I do these things? Yes #And that's a good starting point #And I'm sure there's other things I'm forgetting because I don't deem them as an important skill I have #Like the fact that I helped run a suicide prevention through my church in eighth grade #Where I was a spokesperson - I was in charge of advertising it - created posters fliers and had to talk to multiple people #I had to update my school on it bc it was a heavy project for school that they weren't sure if I could handle #I was in all the meetings with my church and would bring their ideas to spread the word to life #We raised money mostly through food sales - I would prep the food and there I helped with concessions #Fuck I forgot how much I did for that project #Because we sorted through a lot of donations - and had to organize by sizes #Like how did I forget about all that #I remember the project bc it's something really close to home but it didn't feel like enough so when I think about it #I don't remember how much work I genuinely put into it bc of how much the church held us back bc it was ''too much work' '#Anyway I do have valuable skills but I feel like an impostor in all of them so I forget I can put all of those down
