David: Hello. My name's David. People sometimes ask me, "What can you do well?" It's an interesting question. Let me think. Well, I think I'm quite good at drawing. I spend hours just sketching things. I especially like drawing animals, I can draw dogs and cats really well, and horses too, sometimes. My friends say my pictures look very real. Another thing, I can run very fast! I love sports, especially football. When we play in the park, I can usually run faster than my friends, which is useful!
What else? Oh yes, computers. I can use a computer quite well. I can find information for college projects online easily, and I like playing some computer games in the evening. But, there are things I definitely can't do! For example, I can't sing at all. Really, my voice is terrible! My family always laughs when I try to sing birthday songs.
And cooking, well, I can't cook much. I can make toast, and maybe boil an egg, but that's it. I can't make pasta or anything difficult. Maybe I need to ask my mum to teach me how to cook something simple. That could be useful!
