...okay i am, but that's a recent thing. i was (mostly) normal while in Talent.
it was actually kind of fun in the program. i'm not super smart or anything, but it has to do with the scores you get on standardized tests, along with your grades. i don't remeber ever really doing anything in Talent, excapt for solving logic and other types of puzzles.
i think you should give it a try. You might like it, and perhaps even become friends with these so-called "weird" people.

Being gifted or talented means you excel at something, like school. Here is a link that describes it better than I can:
