Qotd: What skill would you like to master? (10/22)

[Saar]

What skill would you like to master?
It can be scrapbook related or something completely different.

There are a few I would like to master and one of them is speak more languages. I speak a little bit of French, but I'm not very good at it. I wish I could speak (and write and understand) it way better.

I like to speak more languages to.speak english.a bit german.a little bit french.
Also would be nice to be able to play a musicinstrument

Oh, i'd like to master too many things but one of them is swimming. I can't swim!! I'm too afraid of the water around me, I can't relax my body and I can't figure the idea of swimming.
I'd also love to master dancing beautifully...I look too clumsy while dancing but I'm enjoying it!

[nietis]

If I could, I want to learn Korean properly.
I've tried learning Chinese and have been trying for the past 5 years living here, but somehow I am just so not good at it

[Saar]

I'd love to master dancing as well. I love modern dance, but I have no feeling for rythm at all.

hmmm... I would love to master being able to draw or make beautiful lettering like Shawna! I would also like to master Latin - my son is catching on way faster than I am... which is a good thing, until he needs my help.

Maybe Domestic Life- meal planning, cooking, house cleaning, etc. I don't enjoy it...maybe because I am not very good at it. There is just other ways I enjoy spending my time...like scrapbooking!! lol

I wish I could be a better cook. I mean I'm getting better every year, but some days I defeat myself and feel like I can't cook. I'd like to cook stunning meals like you'd see on the cooking channels. I'm learning with my 13-year old, who is almost as good as me! Together we are learning how to cook healthier meals, which is an awesome moment to share with each other!

Time management! Everything takes me longer than I think it will, and I always feel like I'm not getting as much done as I should be. That applies to scrapping, things around the house, lesson planning for work, etc. I've learned to compensate well enough that I'm hardly ever late, but that's the only positive thing I can say about my time management.

This. All the learning I did in school has been useless in real life. Who cares that I made an A in AP Calculus when I can't keep my house clean or make a meal worth eating! (And to be fair, I think domestic skills should be mastered by boys and girls alike; my husband is a great cook and keeps the house so clean when I'm gone, Ijust suck at all of it.)

Also, I want to learn to use my camera on manual. I've been saying that ever since I got it six years ago!

I would like to master Tagalog language; we've lived here five years already, but because I can get by in English, I still speak broken Tagalog. It's super embarrassing because my husband has mastered Tagalog and speaks little bits of the other languages spoken here.

This is a good one! Shooting in Manual Mode is the way to go!!

I would love to master my camera, I too am still stuck on auto. Not only to work my camera but to be able to create stunning photos.

Keeping my house tidy. I hate cleaning.

Learn French, we are supposed to be bilingual and all the French I took in high school didn't teach me to speak it.

I would love to master photography. I love taking photos of my boys and become frustrated when half the photos aren't very good.

I dream to master Arabic language as I live in Middle East, but it's really hard for me, as almost all country can speak English here. Also I'd love to master sewing skills, because I love sewing clothes some times for myself. And I want to master blind-typing in English, as I already blindly type (ten fingers) in Russian long time. And surely I need to perfect my English.

[LeeAndra]

I want to be able to dance like this. You didn't say it had to be an attainable skill.
