Zinni... i am graphic design major who was raised on a PC and still get really confused on macs. Don't feel bad... although... flash mx and photoshop seemed to work better on the macs at school than my PC at home... then again, my PC is crap so... yeah... PC users will somehow make it thru.

I have a 21 year old cousin who doesn't know how to drive. We all tease her about it and she actually makes fun of her own self. She relies on her husband and mother to drive her around.

We have graduated licensing out here too. I'm going to be so proud the day I get my 7L!

21 isn't so bad.. it's when you're nearing your mid thirties that it starts to look shameful!

Am I the only one who's suprised this hasn't gotten 'out of hand' yet?

Who says everyone should drive anyway?

KappaTarzan · #9 01-06-2003, 02:50 AM

okay. for some unknown reason my body refuses to allow me to learn to ski. i have tried. it does not work. at all.

i also am pretty damn horrible at knowing when its time to say "okay go to bed NOW".. i'm notorious for going "I only NEED 1.5 hours sleep, that will be fine" and sleeping through important things..

I forgot to add:

I don't know how to do anything with my car, change a tire, change the oil, etc.

I don't know how to swim either or ski...I've tried both, but they were unsuccessful attempts

For those who don't know how to swim...put it this way...a lot of my friends here don't know how to swim either...and they live on a friggin' island.

My mommy didn't learn how to drive until she was well into her 40's. I don't know what prompted her to want to learn how.

I don't know how to:

-drive a stick
-sautee onions

There are other things, but those are the only two I care about.

For all the non-tax doers. if you have the accountant do yours and then follow what they did the next year, it works well. I've only done mine the past 2 years (mainly because what I paid the accountant was more than the tax

).

I don't know how to drive stick. I also can't dive. Last year, even I tried to dive into a pool and I absolutely can't do it. I just freeze up -- it doesn't feel natural to me. Probably not a really bad thing since I don't really know how to swim, although I can sort of do it.

I also need to learn how to mix records.

I also need to learn how to mix records and make pies.
