I would like to have an aptitude for languages. I do alright in my native tongue, but I have always really, really struggled with learning new ones and I wish I was better at it. I suppose if I were to immerse myself, I might do OK eventually but I've not had the opportunity in my life to date.

I can't spell either but with the advent of computers and spell check, it's not such a bid deal anymore so I don't mind the deficiency.

But really, what I've always wanted was the ability to sing. I can read music, I can play instruments, I can hear music with a critical ear...I just can't carry a tune to save my life. I've always wanted to. Singing competitions enthrall me because it's something I just cannot do at all.
