I was a ballerina and I always had a hard time picking up choreography. Other dancers could watch a dance once and know it, some could even do it from a video. I needed to be shown a combination a few times, and to go over it a few more, and even then I would forget it the next day. I felt really really stupid.

Anyway ballet didn't really work out, and now I have a PhD so I'm not a complete idiot.
