Travel. I grew up in a working class family in a rich area and I was always jealous of the other kids spending time over the holidays skiing, going to Egypt, Italy, all sorts.
I’ve ticked off a few countries now but almost all around Europe. I want to see more of the world, just not affordable at this stage in my life.
I wished I was more creatively inclined. Building stuff, playing music, drawing, the works. I’ve bounced off it a couple times since then but I’m at a job where I work with my hands now so I’m getting money and practice 😗
I also wished I was a girl but that turned out to be more possible then I knew at the time
More from my college years, but an ex made off with more than half of my video game collection right before scalpers/speculators started driving prices through the roof. Most of my GameBoy games. My favorite GameCube games. All of my Genesis, GameGear, Xbox360, and N64 games plus each of those consoles. Including multiple complete in box games. The argument was that she found and bought some of what she kept, but it was always bought using my fucking money. She didn’t have a job past our first year together. Really had me swindled. Don’t mingle finances until you’re married folks.
From childhood? A whole bunch of LEGO sets that are either out of print now or are still stupid expensive. Hard to justify $50+ on LEGO.
To be a pretty girl
Growing up now, I’ve learned I was always a girl. I’m working on the pretty part.
I still want a spaceship capable of FTL travel. And teleporters. And replicators. And a utopian post-scarcity society.
Happiness and peace of mind.
Feeling loved and lots of hugs.
Freedom, my own place, stability.
An AK-47. The biggest reason that I haven’t gotten one is that it’'s just not very practical. Parts aren’t interchangeable without a lot of hand fitting, ammunition has gotten ridiculously expensive due to sanctions against Russia, range isn’t great (those 7.62 bullets are heavy and slow; hitting anything past 200y is a real challenge), etc., etc. They’ve also gotten fairly expensive, while prices for more modern rifles have dropped sharply.
I might still get one eventually. I’d like to have one, just to shoot for fun, but there are so many other higher priorities.
HeMan castle set.
My dog back >:(
😔
I mean it’s been like 20 years, I’m over it, but kid me is still angsty
I’ve always wanted to visit a factory. I’ve been in an airbus factory and that was nice, there were Tibetan monks there too. But it wasn’t like a factory factory.
can you explain the monks or were they just there?
My own robot. But hey, that day may be coming!
Being able to exist without making my existence political
Less mental illnessess and back problems.
Not sure if you were going for answers more like “ice cream for dinner every night” or “not having glass bones and paper skin, not breaking my legs every morning and not breaking my arms every afternoon”.
My frivolous answer is a balcony. My depressing answer is a best friend and/or a sister close to my age who is nice to me. OR for my dad to die. OR to wake up and learn that my life was a dream and I’m someone else.
Idk, I was a depressing kid.
