This topic I made here is about your greatest wishes (or backup wishes) that you want to come true like let's saaaaaaaaaaaaaaay... your biggest wish was to become an astronaut, how would you do it to make it come true? would you just ask to be one? Would you train for it? or you can tell everyone about your backup plan wish. (like becoming a scientist) One of my wishes is to have an adventure in the digital world and to get there I would find a portal. my backup wish is to give Code: Mario it's own toy line. (I can just imagine Myself as an Lyoko-like action figure.) but still, what are Your wishes?

When I grow up, I want go to college and be a lion, but daddy told me I'm not allowed to do that...
For now, my biggest wish is to return to my hometown in Northridge. I haven't seen any of my friends for almost a year. I hate the city so much, and college is kind of wearing me down. I don't even want to talk about it anymore, I'm too tired...

I wish I could draw Yoshi. D= I'm not very good at it. I really need to try harder at it. I always will end up messing the body up somehow though... Oh, and this is only my biggest wish right now, while I'm young. I'm sure it will change as I get older.  |

My biggest wish?...It's...well, this is going to sound totally weird...
My biggest wish at the moment is that one day I will wake up, and be a dragon. It's true. Either that or start transforming while awake..

How about, when we wake up, we all become our main characters and we get to live in this wonderful internet fantasy world. I turn from a cynical not a very nice person into a.... cynical not a very nice person. Just with no nose! Major improvements, I say. Though, I get to keep the power of kicking the crap out of you all whenever we're in Yoshi's Corner. I imagine the real life land of this place would look very blue, because of it's current layout. |

I always thought it would be a jungle. But that would be totally awesome. I wish I could meet Teo. My biggest (and probably one of my closest just-out-of-reach) dream at the moment. I need to race Gerald against him, too. :< |

Going off-topic time:
Funny. As much as an extreme Yoshi fan that I am, I do not wish to be anything other than human, especially a Yoshi. For I love Yoshis so much, I don't want to become them because I know that I can never be able to hold myself as high as the standards that I give them, no matter how close I get. I'm afraid I'd disgrace myself to the Yoshi kingdom somehow, at least not being able to belong properly.
Even if I were worthy of becoming one of them, I do not want to change. I cherish being human because that is what we were given with at birth. Wanting to change into something that isn't you, either it be your gender, or into something like an animal or dragon, that's as if you cannot accept who you are. There's no respect in any of that for yourself. If you cannot respect yourself, how can you respect anyone else as well?
Just stay true to yourself and do with what you got. It is good to dream, but it is something else to desire the given impossibilities.
Just my thoughts. Keepin' it real.

It is good to dream, but it is something else to desire the given impossibilities. Just my thoughts. Keepin' it real. One can't help what they desire, one cannot deny what they want most... So we dare to dream. You know why? Probably the same reason people play MMORPGs, too. In today's highly scientific highly intelligent and knowledge-based society, it sucks. We suck. Everything sucks -- there's no magic, there's no supernaturality, there's nothing we can't explain. Almost absolutely everything can be explained in some way or another and things we once thought magical are now simple to understand. Ignorance is bliss, and hence... Living in a world like this one, knowing as much as we can and do, and ackowledging the lack of inexplainability for so many things... it's not unlike anyone to dream for something impossible just to wish so hard it could be real. Particularily through the lives so many people lead, generally boring, horribly repetitive grinds that seem to have no end in sight, and nothing will ever change.... going through it every day, with all this ackowledgement in mind is really, really depressing. In fact I beleive dwelling upon it could drive people to unhealthy extremes... hence religeon's place in this world... but now is not the place to speak my mind of that. That's why I spend so much time here, online... it's just a tiny treat-shred of what these dreams could be if they were more than smiple play behind anonymous aliases... and that tiny shred alone means more to me than anything this boring, unmagical, unenigmatic world could ever provide me... I'll dream the impossible because anything that is possible given my life and my limitations, frankly, fails in comparison and isn't worth wasting my time dreaming of. I can't 'keep it real'. The more real I keep it, the deeper a hole I dig my mind into, every day of my life as I consider it idly at work, at home, in bed. It's not healthy. Ignorance truly is bliss. Sadly, I don't have enough of it. |

This whole thing kind of reminds me of this one song called "No Regrets" by Aesop Rock. It's an underground rap song that I actually appreciate greatly for the meaning it has in its lyrics. I leave that up to all of you to find the lyrics online because posting them here would look totally emo.
But I just love the chorus, though. This, I can't help but to type out:
1, 2, 3 - That's the speed of the seed
ABC - That's the speed of the need
You can dream a little dream or you can live a little dream
I'd rather live it, 'cause dreamers always chase but never get it.
Anyway, I hear you by saying that keeping it TOO real is unhealthy. I do believe in imagination (or else I wouldn't even be here). I oftentimes do dream about living peacefully near a beach, even with visions of Yoshi. I daydream about those a lot. I also agree that one of the greatest reasons why I'm online is to escape the harsh reality and to meet up with my closest friends as well as view and create art. But even still online, I prefer to be myself, because I am who I am, and I should be able to cope with it.
But I just think that wishing so much as to have this dream, of no longer being who you are anymore, into a reality, it doesn't really show much self respect. Trying to go back to the point I'm getting at here, I'm not disagreeing with wishing so badly as to wanting something better from this world, but I just don't agree with self alteration by extreme means. It's like those people you hear of on the news about being born with some kind of abnormality or deformity, yet they consider it more as a gift than anything. Even I don't have THAT much self respect, but I couldn't help but to admire them so much because they know how to deal with what they got.

I wish my books didn't cost $150+ a piece. Even $75 would be more reasonable.

I wish I had broadband access at my house, and before Verizon's proposed date of updating the phone lines of 2008. Either that or have Road Runner be cheaper than $65 a month.
