Have you ever taught yourself a skill?

I taught myself how to be a ***** and how to stalk ppl aka hot pe teacher
 
i'm trying to teach myself how to play the cello again! i played it back in elementary school, so it's a huge gap, but i think i can do it if i put my mind to it.

oh! i also taught myself how to bake. i now make cupcakes and brownies at least once every three weeks. :)
 
I taught myself how to imagine and create various personalities for various characters, from the Pokemon on my team to the Mercenaries of Team Fortress 2.
 
I taught myself how to speak English, well trying to.
I have a few errors here and there with punctuation, syntax, etc.
Italian is my language, ahehe
 
I grew up there during most of my childhood but I recently moved to New York to live with my family(due to the passing of my mom).
 
Computer-related: photoshop, film editing, basic web design, etc.

Practical: 3D nail art, cooking and baking, writing prose.

Language: Japanese, and if it counts I also furthered my understanding of Spanish beyond the level I was taught to in school. I've also picked up the absolute basics in several languages.
 
I taught myself how to play the acoustic guitar. I had a friend who helped me get started though, so I guess that's sorta cheating? And I haven't picked it up in a while, but it's something. And I guess Photoshop? But I feel like anyone can use photoshop nowadays.
 
Years ago, I taught myself how to do counted cross-stitch. I bought a kit, retreated to my room, and worked it all out. It's become a favorite pastime of mine.

Right now, I'm trying to teach myself to spin with a drop spindle.
 
I've taught myself a lot of basic French and hopefully I can do the same with German ^ ^ I've also taught myself how to make cosplay props ^^
