What can you just never manage to do, no matter how hard you try?
I can't cut straight, I never could. Even as a little kid (remember the green and red scissors in school-- think they ruined me for life!) I'm a disaster with a pair of scissors!

Hmm...After trying a step aerobics class I don't think I am coordinated enough for step, no matter how hard I try! Hmm...I can't stop eating carbs, no matter how hard I try....But I have been able to wiggle my ears and touch my tongue to my nose, two things I always wanted to do growing up! You can achieve your dreams!

I consider myself a pretty good cook, but I can never, and I mean NEVER cook a steak perfectly. Its either overcooked, undercooked, underseasoned, or overseasoned.

juggle. I have tried forever. DH does it so well. I have gotten books and kits, and I just can't do it.

Wrap a gift normally. Either I cut the wrapping paper too short or I leave too much on and then have huge flaps to fold under! It's come to the point where I don't even bother trying anymore...FH wraps everything for me!

A back walk over. Okay, so I'm not trying anymore, but I did gymnastics for 6 years and could never do it.

I can't cut straight either!!
I also can't straighten my hair, even though it's not that curly.

that is so funny, it use to haunt me. I did it once when I was 12 and could never do it again.

I can't cook rice. At all. It's either burnt or raw!

Get a rice cooker! Perfect every time
I can't seem to keep up with paper clutter. Both at the office and at home.

Liz-- try the microwave- it's the only way I don't burn rice-
I can't do a ton of things!
Swim in a straight line, write neatly, type well, drive well, get up early, manage my time, stick to a diet or excerices plan, paly any type of hand eye coordiantion game, like gold, pool, tennis, softball, memorize numbers. . .

My dad is all 'Oh rice is easy, you just boil the water and let it sit!' Yeah, if it was that easy, I wouldn't be crunching on every spoonful of my dinner!
I also can't do a roundoff, but I can cartwheel.

no, no timing is essential. we use uncle ben's instant brown rice & dh has it down to a science ( of course ) &says it takes 9 minutes. I burn it if I do it, so I microwave it & if it is too wet, you can put it back.

Re: What can you just never manage to do, no matter how hard you try?
i can never get my hair to look the same every day. its not too long, not too short, no bizarre layers in it. no matter what i do it always looks different. also, i cannot get one eye to match the other with any eye make-up ever. one side will be thick and the other thin. one will have mascara done perfectly and the other will have big chunks in it.
