Things: An Intro to the rest of this blog's life.

I have started this blog because I am devoid of good hobbies or things to do.

Also, because I think there is a market for people that see DIY projects and try them and then are like "well, shoot. I suck at everything. Especially this."
I know this because that person is me.
Plus, this is less expensive than my other hobbies (online shopping and binge drinking.)

So to make me seem more human to my readers and to the spammers that I know are already dying to exploit my blog for selfish gain, here is my first official post, which is a list of things I am terrible at:

  1. Sewing
  2. Spelling and grammar. (I have yet to grasp the concept of "whom")
  3. High School
  4. College
  5. Electrical wiring
  6. Not eating all of the donuts in the box
  7. Any craft that has painting involved. Or drawing. 
  8. Basically any hand-made art. 
  9. Not obsessing over something new.
  10. Fancy nail art.
  11. Remembering to put my lotion on before I leave the house
  12. Cooking
  13. Dressing myself. I have seriously asked a few people to teach me. They looked at me and kinda just backed away.
  14. Putting makeup on without getting mascara literally EVERYWHERE
  15. Knowing what the word 'menagerie' means. I mean, I get it, but I have no clue what the actual definition is.
  16. Riding roller coasters of any kind
  17. Frosting cakes. Please never ask me to make a fancy cake. Ever. Please just buy one.
  18. Using a sewing machine. I literally break every single one that decides to love me. 
  19. Dating.
  20. Money management. Ask me how much money I have in my savings account. Go ahead. 
  21. Knowing what color lipstick to wear. This one is superficial, but haunts me at night.
  22. Cleaning anything. 
  23. Keeping my room organized. I'm pretty sure I don't even know what organization is. (I blame my mother for this one)
  24. Living within my means. I have about an apartment's amount of stuff, and room's area to keep it all in. I also blame my parents for this. They keep giving me real-world stuff, like "move out already".
  25. Dancing

    There are also a few things I am really good at, but none of are really useful to my life, or are very embarrassing.
