Something you can't do!?
 

Is there something out there you can't do and you wish you could? Something you don't know how to do also?

Okay I have never told anyone else this except my hubby. I can't believe I'm going to tell you man you will probably laugh. I don't know if I want to tell you now! Okay I will tell you. I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO RIDE A BIKE. Yes yes me I never got to learn. When I finally be taught we up and moved. My parents no longer wanted to help me they were just to busy with life. So I never got motivated to learn. Hubby now wants to buy me a bike so I can learn. But I am very terrified of falling down to me I am way high up. Don't get wrong I am not afraid of heights. I'm afraid of the fall. So before this year is over I want to learn how to ride a bike :lol: phew! I can't believe I shared that lol

I can't open my eyes under water, I can't use eye drops, and I can't use contacts. Damn these sensitive eyes o' mine.

I can't do a pull up. I have no idea how anyone has the upper body strength to do it either. =P I only just got to the point where I could do a sit-up (albeit a sad one) after a few weeks of trying. I would love to get strong enough to do pull ups since it's a great over-all exercise. =P Plus you never know when you may need to hold onto something for dear life and that skill would come in mighty handy! xD

Oh that reminds me! One time we tried to put contacts in my mothers eyes. Oh gosh it was tooooo funny. We would tell her keep your eyes wide open. And as soon as we would keep the contacts close to her eyes. She would blink like over and over. We were like MoM! Stop or we might drop it. Then we all started to laugh. The contacts never made it into her eyes! Lol

Don't worry BlackEggIceBird, I can't either or tie shoelaces D: I R STUPID.

Nah, I actually do have a personal reason why I can't, so yeah XD

I can't ride a bike either. I have no sense of balance at all, actually. I fall over constantly.

For some reason, I just can't snap my fingers. I wish I could, but they just won't snap. :\

I can't whistle! People always tell me it's so simple and try to walk me through the steps to do it, but I just sound like a cracked window on a windy day.

I also can't do a sit up... I try and try, but it just isn't happening! So I do bicycle crunches instead. They're supposed to be better for you anyway.

I also can't making a purring sound (not that I have any need to). But I can roll my tongue, crack my back, and moonwalk. :lol: Not... at the same time, though.

I'd love to be able to play guitar or draw well. However, I know that if I did know how to play guitar, I would do nothing else with my life. I'd wind up playing it under a bridge somewhere.

I can't make a snap sound with my fingers on my left hand. I can make the gesture, but somehow it doesn't happen hard enough, or whatever, to make a sound.

I can snap on my right hand just fine tho.

If I put my pinky down, that third finger just loves to come down with it.
My other two fingers will go up, but the third one won't. If it comes up, so does the pinky. And I'd literally have to BREAK my finger to change this. It's been like this for me for YEARS.

I can't ride a bike. For the life of me, I can't. And it creeps me out how can some people stand on a bike and ride it. Balance: I have none.

And you know how some people crack their knuckles? I can neither do that or be around people who do it. I start twitching, go figure. =/ Also, Scene, my fingers do that too, I thought it was normal. XD

I learned how to ride a bike just a year ago. I didn't actually ride a bike after learning how to, so I might have forgotten.
I am pretty ashamed of not being able to do proper push-ups. I can do sit-ups, but not push-ups.
I also am very bad at gymnastics. Basically the only thing I can do is balance. No cartwheels, no somersaults, nothing!
Oh, and I also cannot whistle. I used to be able to (very not very well, though), but I kind of forgot how to do it ^^' But I hope I can learn it again once.

I never learned how to ride a bike. My head would always be in one direction while my body was in another. I always wanted to learn and I never did. I wish to learn still to this day because, I feel like basically the entire population of the United States knows how to ride a bike. I mean heck, three year olds know how or are learning how. I'm sitting here almost twenty years old and I don't know how.

It's not too difficult once you get the hang of it, BleedxWell. :) I'm sure you could find someone to teach you how. The tricky part is that at very low speeds, it's very hard to balance, so you've got to get a touch of speed to be able to stay upright. I think that's the most challenging for those just learning since faster is scarier if you don't know how! :lol: Just get someone to jog alongside you and catch if you start to tip, and you'll be riding in no time at all! It's not too hard, I promise. :)

And that goes for everyone else who has said they don't know how to ride a bike too!

It's definitely something you have to teach yourself to do. I got really dedicated to it about six years ago and now I can raise my left eyebrow on its own. I can't do the right one, though! Just try to do it over and over for... I don't really remember how long it took me; just as long as it takes. :lol: To make it easier, just work on one at a time. Focus as hard as you can on that eyebrow and raise it. I think it might help a bit to hold the other one down. The trick is getting yourself to be able to isolate the muscles on just one side.

Another thing that helps is knowing which part of your eyebrow you're pulling up. When you're raising both your eyebrows, you're sort of raising them from the inner sides of them (towards the center of your forehead). When you're raising just one, you're pulling up right near the arch of your brow. So in the process of learning you'll make some weird angry eyebrow faces and will feel completely silly, but you'll get it eventually! It's all about isolating the muscle and getting it strong enough.

As for push ups, try doing them on a counter or something about level with the bottom of your ribcage. Take a few steps back from it, put your hands on the edge of the counter, straight out from your shoulders (not in, and not out to the sides) then lean forward, bending your arms out, and then try to push yourself back with just your arms. Not your legs and not your back. It also works on walls if you don't have a counter handy. :) Do those enough and you'll gain enough of the right muscles in your upper arms to start attempting some typical ones. But personally, I have really weak wrists so I can't do floor ones!

I can't do Algebra....I wish I could though. I also can't sing...or carry a tune...or remember lyrics....

I suck as music.

I can't move most of my left hand due to an accident a few months ago. I'm hoping that'll change though since I can't stand not being able to play my bass and guitars.

Other than that there's really nothing I am unable to do that really bugs me aside from taking antibiotics. Those just do not mix well with me.
