i have a photographic memory-very useful in school 🙂 i can look at my notes 5 mins before a test and remember exactly where everything was and how it read, etc. lol

I can whistle continuously and pretty well and I can replicate a dog’s bark perfectly!! Haha, I always fool my dog with that one
-
Oh I can also shake my eyes and flare my nostrils really wide and like… Forever. Pretty useless except for making faces, I have the upper hand there lol
-
@LillyBilly @Steffie I also have synaethesia!
It is kinda useful though because if I am trying to remember a word/place/name I focus the colors come through first and I focus on them until I get the letters. Like I might remember blues and purples and remember there has to have been e's in a name because E is purple. Sometimes this works with numbers too (like six is red) but to a far lesser extent.
I knew a girl that said she would get a taste in her mouth with different words and letters!

Add me too with the girls who remember useless things, Phone number from 30 years ago, how was the appartement where i live when i was 3 (in detail), in fact oldest memorie is back when i was 18 months. At what page number was the word ''lion'' in my dictionnay when i was 7… i don't even have it anymore!
I use to get in fight with my mom about all those little details now she just go '' well you probably know better than me anyway'' lol
And of course it was really usefull to https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif my new (was ex-bf) when he realize that i still remember his phone number after 17 years, i did remember mine too anyway. Too bad i can't remember what i ate for lunch or where i put my keys a minute ago https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif

I can applaud forever. Like for school performances and symphony concerts. Boyfriend timed it 8 minutes for a winter performance we attended, and I ‘had’ to stop, could’ve continued.
I can write mirror image. A math prof was so tickled by it he asked for my math assignments to be like that for his challenge (TA was being a (bad…) so I did my assignment in mirror image and he LOVED it and graded my papers).
I can remember where items are if I’ve seen them. While moving last year boyfriend asked me to look at all packed items so we would know where items were located. I couldn’t be at the house to unpack- so he called at work and I could walk him step by step what items were where. (Cos labels are invisible & me saying in blue box is easier?)Same with reading items in exams I would visualize what page -etc and recite it. But if you see me while thinking of the locations My hand & facial expressions are odd. Not exactly photographic but in the same circle. -
I can remember the lyrics of a song I last heard 15 years ago, and it's not only the chorus, lol!
-
I have a few others but because this JUST came up, I can fold a fitted sheet in a neat square in seconds flat. Poke, tuck, flip, fold fold fold! :o)

A useless talent must be better than having no talent at all, I'm guessing.

I can make the trilling/ chirping noise that kittys make when they talk to one another. I don't even have to open my mouth, it comes from deep within my throat. It sounds so real often times my kitty or other kittys will trill back at me to communicate… I can also do those crazy tongue things like the 3 leaf clover, fliping it side to side, making it belly dance ect, ect. 🙂
