This is my talent. To be able to study things and do many things quite efficiently. This is why people think I'm "smart," but I'm not smart like those people that just naturally understand things. I pick them up fast, but I need some time.
That's me! I am multi-so-so talented! 
Doesn't it suck? Bah. What about you guys?

Like you said, but didn't quite catch onto and grasped, was that your talent is actually tied right into your ability to learn. Therefore, I must come to the conclusion that your natural talent IS learning. Learning itself is your talent. If that were my talent I am sure I would be much further in life right about now. I would not put that talent down one bit, Mena. The ability to understand just about any brand new concept thrown your way to a point and beyond (if your poor head had more time
) is an extraordinary gift. So yes, you are indeed intelligent like people say. Many people know how to do things more "naturally" but do not know why as much as say somebody who, like you, would understand the process involved inside and out. That, right there, is definately my definition of intelligence. Now don't make me prove you wrong for putting yourself down again
LOL...you can't win!
BTW, that is one of my talents, I believe. Being empathethic to people and helping them understand what it is that is positive about them better, atleast from my eyes. Yeah, definately, I think I enjoy my talent to be able to listen to others and offer alternative points of view/suggestions/ways of looking at things to help them through, I suppose. OF course, most of the time I probably do much less good than I hope to, but considering my rate of failure to help others compared to the rate of most, I think I do relatively well.
That's another talent of mine. Communication. I would have to be good at it in order to do anything in writing and lyrics for my music, wouldn't I? PLus a good composer has to communicate subliminal concepts through the music itself to the listener.
Wait, there's my other talent. Musical composition. I'll get into that more later, though.
PEACE
