Okay, to clarify when I say everything, I mean everything practical such as design. I can do algebra like nobody's business but when it comes to sewing or building things out of wood you can be sure I will fail. I made a puppet in Textiles and my Textiles teacher said "it was the worst puppet she ever seen!" Just let me down lightly. Then last year in woodwork I never finished this model I just snuck it home and hoped no-one would notice. In cooking everything I made ending up looking slightly like poo (even the chocolate cheesecake which was gorgeous) in art my drawings are always slightly lopsided the paint never really drying in time for the end of the lesson so it doesn't matter how precise I get it always smudges (its the same with nail varnish I always smudge it.) Music I think could fall into the design category I am awful at. When I was younger I took up violin lessons but couldn't find a comfortable position to stand in whilst playing so I quit. Bad Karma. Now I cannot play an instrument to save my life. The guitar - I have medium length nails that repeatedly (and painfully) slip into the strings when I'm playing the guitar, meaning that if I do play a song it is unrecognisable, I also cannot find the chords quick enough to find the chords!
The piano - My fingers always have a little "moment" when I'm playing the piano causing them to spread out and make a rather unpleasant noise
Singing - We sing quite a lot in music and although I'm a auditory learner and have a natural gift for memorising song lyrics after only hearing the song once I cannot carry a tune to save my life. I'm always dancing to the songs in my head (which always looks a bit a bit odd to outsiders) but try not to sing as it sounds like nails on a chalkboard.
The only design I am Ok at is Drama and ICT and I don't think ICT counts as design anymore
