There are many things I wished I could get the hang of when I was younger and now I'm beginning to wish I had persisted with them and learnt how to do them!

I recently got given a Rubik's Cube - never could do it without the book! Still can't, I can get one side done but can get no further. It's driving me insane!

Other things I wish I could do are:

Cats Cradle
Yoyo
Draw - even my stick men look odd!

Anything that bugs you?

I wish I could roller skate (and ice skate)
I also wish I could draw - my mum is an artists and I am annoyed to say I haven't inherited any of her talent whatsoever
I know I'm tempting fate even mentioning this but it's true - I wish I could juggle!
I also wish I had paid more attention when my mum tried to teach me to sew and knit - it would be great to be able to make my own clothes

I wish I'd learnt a different language when I was in school.

I always feel so ignorant when I either point at something on a menu that I can't pronounce or even worse; I try to say it and then get it wrong, especially as they always then look at me funny after I've tried. Although during so, I've probably just called their mother a whore or something when really I was just asking for Carbonara.

I just feel it's incredibly rude to expect or assume people in other countries know how to speak English which is why I always try to speak their language, even if I do sometimes get it wrong.

I can do all four... that means you wish you were me. I knew it.

(yes I can knit... Mamma Ballbag taught us all to knit, to this day I have not really used this skill, but it is there nonetheless).

I wish I had stuck with playing the piano. I was very good as a young pup, but gave it up aged 13 because it wasn't considered "cool". I have now retaken it up, but I am nowhere near the standard I was.

I also wish I could speak more languages.

Oh, and I wish I could sing.

I actually do wish I was a bit taller. Being short is no fun.

I wish I could sing too actually. I've always wanted to do Karaoke.

I'm happy being a mediocre singer, I only sing in front of a select few people, or when pissed.

I do wish I'd learnt the guitar.

I really wish I could sing, but I really can't. I have trouble working out the right key when it comes to singing.
