I Am Good With My Hands

What things popped into your mind when you read the title? Have you thought of something wholesome?.... or maybe not? Thanks a lot, sponsors! ❤️ At work, we held our meetings every Thursday and Friday. While I was working on paperworks, a notification popped up. At precisely 10 in the morning, there's a meeting to welcome the newly hired peeps. Our workplace's tradition is to embrace the newly hired peeps on a Tuesday. In that meeting, there's no real agenda to be discussed. It's just catch-up and getting to know each other, especially the newly hired ones. If I remembered it clearly, there were three. We usually introduce ourselves by stating our names and something interesting about ourselves. Then, we need to answer a random question. A while ago, the random question was about household chores: ***What is your favorite household chore?*** I was called by a colleague. I started introducing myself then I answered the random question by saying that it's difficult for me to choose *just* one household chore ***because I'm good with my hands.*** After I uttered those words, some of my colleagues burst into laughter. That's when I realized that what I've said has another meaning!! ***(Well, what do you think it is?)*** Hahaha! It's been a minute and more before we called another colleague to answer. That was embarrassing, especially since our supervisors were also in the meeting. Looking at it from a different angle, what other tasks can I perform well with my hands? **Lettering and Calligraphy (Writing)** I don't have a talent for drawing, but I have good handwriting. I hope that's my way of compensating for my lack of skill in drawing. Lol. **Playing musical instruments** At an early age, I learned how to play the piano. I pursued learning how to play the guitar when I was in high school. **Baking and making desserts** Another thing that compensates for my lack of cooking skills is that I can bake and make desserts. There are still many incredible things that I could do with my hands *(we're wholesome here, okay??)* Hahaha! I can still hear the laughter of my colleagues after I uttered those words. Ughhh! How come they associated it with something inappropriate when we're in a meeting? 😂 What other tasks can you perform well with your hands? Let me know! October 14, 2022 I hope you had a great Friday! I'm looking forward to the weekend! Thanks for reading~
