I can say that I have been delivered from making terrible rice. For yearsI made everything from plaster to rubberized white poop. But God....was able and rebuked that spirit of crappy rice from me. Now I'm prefect.

You are a prefect at a private school? You are kind of old to be a prefect.

Ladies with plants:

If you are using "city water", you might consider catching rain water in a barrel or something...

There are two things often found in "city water" that will kill-a-plant-in-a-heartbeat:

Chlorine
Salt

Like the thread.

Grammar and typos. Some of my typos have turned into swear words and humor by accident. I sent a business e-mail one time that said, the male (not mail) will be there in 3-5 days. That was bad! In business skype I wanted to type shift, but I forgot a letter for some reason. Sometimes I restructure my sentence completely, because I'm not familiar with the proper punctuation for a particular situation. Hate those semicolons! Make up your mind! Are you a period or a comma?!?! I read some where that their was an exclamation mark/question mark called the Interrobang. What do we need this?!?!?! Why?!?!

I will one dae defeet mi feer of punktuation gramar; and type-Os' until then it.s tyme four tennis!

* What are some things you know you're notoriously bad at?
I'm bad at almost anything and everything I try :p (Really!)

Notoriously bad? Hm...
- Thing requiring fine motor skills (ie the adult colouring books)
- Things requiring strength or balance


* Have you given up on them, or do you still keep trying? Why or why not?
- I still use my colouring book every now and then, it feels almost meditative
- I've had a loong slump in going to the gym... main reason is I hate exercising with others in the room,
and it seems to be downright impossible to find a time when no- ones around.
- I used to fight with swords, but the only ones doing it around here are two hours away by bus,
and it's not during weekends... so four hours lost just to have fun for one hour or two is a bit much :p

* What other things are you interested in that you suspect you might not be so good at, but you'll still try them anyway?
- To play the piano. I have a keyboard, but I never get around to try and properly learn how to play

I had heard that they were debating over whether or not to teach cursive anymore, but I didn't know how widespread it was, or when it started, so I was surprised to hear that people who were 25 and 27 had been affected.

It's so strange to me... (Waaaayyyyy) back when I was in school, completing cursive was considered one of the pinnacle moments of our education... and now it's gone the way of cassette tapes, VCR's, and... the dinosaurs. :(
Lol :D

My handwriting was so bad they never bothered teaching me cursive , but the rest of my class had to learn it :D

I'm notoriously bad at operating any kind of machinery, cars, lawnmowers, etc. I'm good at driving pick up trucks, though:p, maybe that's because my brother taught me how to do that whenever I was 12;).

Hey Gary :), thank you for the tip. :)

I had read about this a while back and have only been using filtered water that's sat out a day or two ever since.

I'm excited to report that I have a few plants that are... not dead yet! :D

I have a pot of impatiens that are continually producing flowers--definitely a first for me. :)


Reading all your answers has been great, and sometimes, endlessly entertaining. :) Hope you'll continue to post!

Making omelets. They always, without fail, turn into scrambled eggs.

I am terrible at not losing things. I ALWAYS lose stuff. I once lost my tv remote. About a year later I found it in the top drawer of my dresser, buried under everything else. About a month later, I lost it again. Still haven't found it
