Simple tasks you can't perform
0
You have any seemingly, or at least to other people, simple tasks that you cannot seem to do?
I for one can't do math in my head. I can do basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, but only simple equations in my head; and forget asking me to figure out percents in my head.
I was reminded of this today in embarrassment. I had a friend over and we were playing LIFE and I couldn't count all of the money and keep it track in my head without writing it down. Luckily my friend knew of this before hand from a few years ago and just grabbed my money too and counted it, but it was still very embarrassing.
I'm not bad a math, per say (except like Calculus) but I just can't do simple problems in my head. I have to use pencil and paper or calculator for seemingly easy equations. It was always very embarrassing in my Algebra 2 class in high school. My teacher always wanted us to do partner math races, and I couldn't do them. Most of the time I was partnered with sympathetic people or people who were not very good at Algebra to begin with, but I had a few nasty experiences as a result.

I cannot bake cookies. I can bake or cook anything else, just not cookies...
I cannot even do the right out of the package and put in the oven cookies. It's ridiculous.

Can't fucking skate or rollerblade to save my life. I can do stuff like bikes no problem, but those things irk me to no end. I always end up busting my back or kissing asphalt. Can't balance at all, even after numerous tries and injuries. Eventually, a major fall and resultant backhurt ended my pursuit for rollerblading.

I can't stop when I'm skiing or ice skating. Not like in "I can't stop cuz it's so fun", but like in I can't just twist my hip and make one of those sudden breaks. I always have to sloooowly lower my speed. This is something very hard to do when your skiing down a very steep slope, resulting in me plowing right into the crowd at the end.

I can't follow essay-structure. I just can't right like that. No matter how many times I learn it in English class, I am always determined to write freely and with a very loose structure, not this bull-shit about CDs, CMs, transitions, etc.

I cant make myself do anything that I don't care about/dislike/just don't want to do. It's complete bullshit! No discipline what so ever... but even if I'm not doing anything I'm still thinking about all the things that I should be doing but haven't done- stressing out. I'm just a fucking procrastinator.
So yea, the simple task of not procrastinating- absolutely impossible.

That makes two of us.
I once tried to bake a cookies, and, well the results were less than spectacular.
Then again, I can't bake at all...

drawing. I totally fail in that. I find it impossibly hard to draw as good as any kindergartner can.

-Going to sleep at a semi-humane hour. I always have the impression that there simply aren't enough hours in a day to accomplish all I want to do.
-Eat vegetables. They simply cannot constitute a meal unto themselves. They are simply accessories to real food.
-Manage my time efficiently. Though I feel that I may not be alone in that respect. XD

I can't remember peoples names. Someone will tell me their name, I'll repeat it, and forget it 10 minutes later. I still don't know the names of a couple of my friends, even though I talk to them every other day in class.

-Paying attention, my mind always wanders off, alot.
-remembering names. Takes me a while before I get a name right.
