School-Based Talent Shows
School is a great way to discover and show off your talents! You're encouraged to try new things and often find yourself doing things you wouldn't normally do but discover you love! I discovered my ability to do 'voices' through theatre at my school. It's fun and exciting to discover something you can do through something you weren't very certain about. Another way to utilize your school as a way to develop and broadcast your talents is to enter into a school talent show! Even universities sometimes do them! It puts you in a community with other people who want to show off what they can do and allows a large audience of your peers to see how talented YOU can be! Here's just a few examples of people being a part of a school talent show!
So don't be afraid to let your fellow students see what you can do! Whether it's a strictly planned dance routine or being able to fit 100 gummy bears in your mouth, let people see just what you can do and revel in your talent! Encourage your friends too! Be a part of their show and let them help you with yours! Go out their and be a star!

What IS my Talent?
People often wonder if what they can do IS a talent. what makes something a talent? How can you discover your talent? Here's a little help in finding your unique abilities!
The dictionary defines a talent as: A natural aptitude or skill.
This means your talent could be a number of things! A natural skill for speed skating or being able to hold your breath for elongated periods of time! Realizing your talent can be hard for some and easy for others, it's just about finding what you do well at and can succeed in. Your talent doesn't have to relate to a sport or something you could make a career out of, it's just some kind of skill you have wether that's burping the ABC's or being able to spit water at great distances!

Catching Food
Today's talent is very similar to the first talent featured on this blog!
Name: Sarah Miller
Age: 18
Talent: Catching food in my mouth
How did you learn/discover the talent: I was at summer camp when I was 11 and they had a contest to see who could catch the most stuff in their mouth and I entered just for fun and I ended up winning.
What do you call it: Catching food in my mouth
How would you explain it to someone who wants to learn it: It's all in the toss. You have to have a toss that is up and towards your face with enough altitude to give you time to position your mouth underneath the object. Then when you are catching it you have to have your eyes open the whole time, you can't close then until it's in your mouth. Also hold your mouth open enough so that the object doesn't bounce off your teeth.Sarah Miller is a first year sophomore at Washburn University. She's majoring in Mass Media: Journalism and hopes to enter the media field after graduating. In this video she tosses whoppers into the air and catches them in her mouth!

Sarah Palin Voice
I thought it was time I told all of you my personal talent!
Name: Vinyl Anderton
Age: 19
Talent: Sarah Palin Impersonation
How did you learn/discover the talent: In 5th grade, during the election, I was an avid Obama supporter. I didn't really understand politics yet but I thought I did. I learned that I could do a pretty good Northern/Alaskan accent and would put my hair up like Palin's and wear glasses and do 'comedy routines' for my family.
What do you call it: Sarah Palin Voice
How would you explain it to someone who wants to learn it: You really just have to search out videos of her or of Northerns and try to really develop a voice that matches theirs. Accents can be hard, and I can't do many, this is one of the few I can pull off well.
I'm currently a freshman Mass Media: Film and Video major at Washburn University. In my free time I still use this voice to develop skits and routines as Palin but due to her no longer being a part of a major political campaign it's harder for people to get the jokes and find her funny so it's mostly just for fun at this point.
