What is something you always wished you learned how to do but didn't try or stick with it?
I have two.
I wish I stuck with my piano lessons as a kid and really learned how to play. I sometimes think about going back and learning now but it seems a little daunting.
I also wish I stuck with foreign language (Italian) back in HS and college. It would've been nice to be bilingual.

Re: What is something you always wished you learned how to do but didn't try or stick with it?
I wish I kept up with piano too. When I go to my parents house, I'll sit down and play, and while I am so rusty, it's still there- just would need a lot of practice. I enjoy it too, it's relaxing to me when I sit and play.
I wish I kept up with Spanish. I got a native speaker score on my high school AP Spanish test, but never kept up with it after high school and I lost almost all of it. It's sad.
I had learned to crochet from a girl at work years ago, and I was getting pretty decent at it- by decent i mean making a blanket decent, nothing complicated. But I also stopped that and now when I try to pick it up I have forgotten most of how to do it.

I wish I still remembered how to crochet as well!! When I was very little my great aunts taught me and I loved it. I've long since forgotten how to do it, I feel like it's overwhelming to relearn without someone specifically teaching you.

Spanish. I got a 98 on my HS Regents exam, but never continued after High School. Now, I can pick out words here and there, but I definitely can't communicate.

any musical instrument. i don't know a thing about music.
wish i would have kept up with any and all kinds of sewing. i know how to do it, but do it in bibs and bobs and have never been consistent with it.
