Uncoordinated Skills

As most of my friends, family, strangers on the streets, and anyone else that may catch a glance at my amazing coordination skills know that they simply do not exist.

I would like to share and hopefully others will add their most memorable stories below about their fabulous coordination skills.


Story #1.

So I was in Oregon on a camping and off roading trip with my best friend and her parents. We rented scooters and it was my first time ever to ride one. I was about 16 years old. Everything was fine and dandy, we rode up florence by the dunes and were getting ready to park the scooters so we could take the quads out to dunes. I was going a good 2-5MPH and a slight turn on the gravel road where our RV was parked was coming up. I figured "I got this. It cant be THAT hard to turn a scooter."....

I start turning the corner and I go right into the ditch. Flipped the scooter OVER the top of me. Managed to escape with no damage to me or the scooter...


HOW ON EARTH DOES SOMEONE FLIP A SCOOTER GOING UNDER 5MPH?




Story #2.
Boyfriend (Fiance Now) was teaching me how to long board. I was pretty excited because Ive wanted him to teach more since we started dating. All i could think was "This is is. Im about to be a bad *kitten* and show him how quickly I learn." I was doing really good on the flat land, so He took me over to a Slope of like 3Inches down. I was thinking "Sweet, I got this." Oh buddy.

I started to pick up speed... going less then 5MPH yet again and Jumped because the board started to wobble a bit and I was losing control...

When I jumped i happened to Sprain/Fracture my Ankle in the worst degree possible... He had to carry me to the car and I was so EMBARRASSED. We went to the doctor the next day and she was like... how did you manage to slightly fracture and sprain it so incredibly bad from jumping off a long board?




Clearly I have ZERO coordination skills.

I walk into walls, Trip over every step on a staircase, jam my feet into everything, etc...
