Question:I wish I had the skills of a mechanic....I'm probably always getting screwed.


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I wish I had the skills of a mechanic....I'm probably always getting screwed.

If I could do a good Irish accent, I would be so happy.

To be able to dance. I'm totally uncoordinated, unfortunately.

I am a mechanic, but I would like to be able to sing.

singing and playing musical instrument (esp. the violin)

I wish I was just really proficient in music. It always seems like it takes me more practice than other people and even then I just don't get it 100% of the time.

my friends would hate me if they saw this, but I wish I were more talented in piano playing. my fingers have gotten "clumsier" lately and they're not very strong and they often slip from the keys if I'm not careful.
also, I'm very slow at sightreading, despite the fact I've been playing for 8 years! haha

speed reading.

T play trumpet. To stand in front of a crowd and blow my head off with great sounds untill everyone is on their feet screaming.

Yes, you are.

Go to the library and get a couple of Chilton's Auto mechanic's books, and read them thoroughly.

Then you will know if you are getting screwed, or not.
sometimes it is hard to tell if you are getting screwed.

Good luck.

PS: I got hosed by an electrician last week.
Really pissed me off too.

I would like to play the violin. I have been learning for about 5 years now but it is a very slow process and I don't think that will ever really be able to play it.

I will always have to say " I am learning the violin" not " I play the violin "

I wish I could draw better. I don't have the patience to keep at it yet . I taught myself to paint and do sculpture. Also learned how to make jewlery the way I wanted. I want to improve in those areas also.

I wish I was a better singer.

i want to learn how to curcular breath.. (i play trumpet) it will prolly never happen, but ill keep trying.
