I´ve always wanted to be able to dance capoeira, when I was working in Madrid there were free class, so I joined, at the begining. But, the art of this dance is so difficult and needs too much discipline, requires fluid movements with a quick reflexes and an almost instinctive feel for individual, it´s a choreography, therefore, so difficult for me, after a few attempts, I gave up it. Capoeira is not for me..grin

What about you? ...bouquet wink

More than a failure it's the feeling of frustration trying to start doing something that seems impossible, learn to make jewelry is something apparently difficult to achieve for me...bouquet

I'd like to learn how to belly dance but I'm too shy about making a fool of myself in front of others...that's my weakness but not considered a failure laugh I think everyone is capable of doing anything if they really want to. There are some things we have a flair for and other things, not so much...it's good to try though. wine

I can't do ANYTHING when someone is looking, I have to be alone when I do things, I would never sing before people. I can do it all right when I am alone. So I am a loner when it comes to doing things.

Women are at a natural advantage. Every 28 days or so they get to use san-pro which makes them highly capable to swim, sail and play tennis.

hm..let's see...dance a salsa - sure, i can dance anything if someone just show me few basic steps
horse riding - didn't try, but can't be too difficult :)
cooking almost every day, alas.
driving test, no, sadly and unfortunately for me, but very fortunate for mankind, trust me :)
ski...well...i did a little of that when i was kid.
sing,all the time, better with every glass of alcohol :)
speak a foreign language, yes.
very sorry to say, i don't play any musical instruments.
gave up smoking, don't ask me how, but never dared to start again cause i was positive i'd never be able to quit again.
learn something interesting...sounds good, maybe that make me less of a failure
