9 of the little things that i cannot do (but most people can)

[writing while the smiths pleads please please let me get what i want ]

confidence one notch down, i admit the following:

1. i cannot identify constellations.
even if you point at the stars in the sky, how will i know if we're looking at the same star?

2. i cannot read maps.
i have no sense of direction. and i get distracted with those legends like yellow is supposed to be the railroad, red the business center, blue the main road, etc.
also, if we're on the car and you turned left, then right, then another right; i don't know how to go back.

3. i don't drink milk and coffee.
people i know well say that i am the epitome of all irony. i came from the coffee province but i don't drink coffee. i love cheese but the smell of milk alone makes me vomit.

4. i cannot sleep right away.
i have great difficulty sleeping. there was a time when even sleeping pills don't help.

5. i don't understand linear perspective.
my god, don't even come close to me with a drawing board and a t-square! i cannot draw a box (yes, just a box) in its ortographic and isometric projection.

6. i cannot draw at all.
i don't think stick figures qualify.

7. i don't eat the following: sushi, the chiken skin in fried chicken, chicken nuggets in mcdonalds, pasta with cream sauce, oysters and anything that sounds exotic.

8. i don't like computer games.
i don't want to be one of those zombies in the internet cafe.

9. i cannot make myself love windows pc.
i confess, the apple topics are probably the only discussions in the world where i become close-minded. i just cannot tolerate windows' complete lack of taste.
