For me it would be mathematics. I really enjoy science stuff, but when it comes to maths I zone out. Probably doesn't help that I'm dyslexic and probably have some form of mathematical dyslexia. I would love to have an advanced mathematical brain. It helps us to understand the world around us so much better.

Singing - it's not a pleasant experience hearing me sing
Drawing! I'd love to be able to draw well but I'm just not any good. I wish I was more creative in general actually, I really struggle with anything that requires creativity!

Talking to new people in real life. I’m so shy and never know what to say!! As a result I just don’t talk to people 😂

I am better than I was but still wish I was more outgoing. I have come to terms with the fact I will never be the chatty gal!

I'd love to be a gifted musician and songwriter like two of my heroes, David Bowie and Bryan Ferry (the latter is Roxy Music's lead singer for to Jose not in the know).

I wish I was better at drawing as I do have a creative side in me but I'm absolutely crap at alot of art. I could get lost in a few hours drawing.

I wish I was better at drawing. I love art and being creative but was always no good at it, I find art relaxing and I'd get lost in drawing for hours.

Talking, I can get quite socially awkward at times

Hair and make up - I always look the same
Cooking - no patience or common sense. Yeah, I will take this hot dish out of the oven with no gloves on, no problem. 🔥

Speaking a different language. I did Spanish at school and loved it but wasn't the best with pronunciation and mixing words up. I do that with speaking English so I had no chance 🤣 I'm in awe of my friend who speaks Spanish and French fluently, and can speak some German too.

Baking. I’d like to make my kids a birthday cake that didn’t look like it had been dropped (and taste somewhat similar) I try so hard but have no talent for it, and no patience either tbf!

Driving. I have no confidence with it and find it extremely stressful. I’m envious of people who just jump in their car and can go anywhere.
