A house cat might be nice, as long as they let me go outside.
Maybe a bra, that would be cool too.

Actually, there is such a thing as a next life but I don't want to come back at all. I want to be led straight to heaven and stay there for all eternity. When a person lives a righteous life, they won't have to come to the hell that is earth but when they do come back, that's when you know that you're in hell. So, I'd rather not come back at all.

Yes... there is! All is dependent upon the balance of karma of this life whether we take birth in next life in the house of a king or a farmer!
Can we try to explain the concept of a flower without making one feel the smell of a flower? If I need to explain the concept of milk ... then I need to also explain the source from where the milk is derived ... how the cow is fed with the grass ... and for the grass to grow we need big fields ... and if these fields are not cultivated how do we expect to get good quality milk!
On the earthly plane, we visualize everything from the point of view of the senses. Anything beyond the concept of senses is not clearly understood. To be able to understand the entity of a human being ... we need to understand who created it and the purpose behind its creation. The human body is not a creation of the Mankind ... it is our Atman the soul within which has manifested the body ... in the cosmic life span of 8.4 million manifestations (a total cosmic journey of 96.4 million years) ... what is the value of a 70 to 80 years life span of a human being?
We need to understand the basics ... it is the Atman (our soul within) which is governing ... it has taken the body and not the vice versa. Our Atman the soul within needs a series of manifestations for it to liberate from the cycle of Birth and Death forever. The form of a human being is the last leg in the theory of evolution. Before the Atman soul has manifested a human body for the first time ... it has already passed through the various phases of evolution ... the body of an amoeba to start with, then an insect, a plant and finally being born as an animal.
How in the circumstances it is possible that we can even think of understanding the concept of the Cosmos in Hinduism or any Religion of the world unless we understand the underlying truth ... the truth of our Atman the soul within. It is only the ego of a human being that sometimes prevents us from assuming that there is a God. There are Human Beings who want to become immortal in this very life and that to in the physical manifested form. How can that be possible ... it is our Atman the soul within which get liberated from the cycle of Birth and Death ... it is our Atman the soul within which becomes free forever ... what is the significance of a human being except that it helps the Atman the soul within to expedite the journey.
The concept of a previous birth or the next birth is misunderstood. There is nothing of this nature that exists in the cosmic system. Had Human Beings possessed the power to be reborn ... if only it was the human being, which had manifested the Atman soul, only then this anomaly would have truthfully stood its ground. We are born and we die ... nothing is in our control ... the governing factor for every human being is the Karma ... the residual Karma from each birth manifested by an Atman the soul within which gets carried forwarded onto the next life through the chromosomes.
We Human Beings are really to be pitied upon ... we do not have the power even to create the smallest particle existing in the Cosmos ... yet, it is only as a human being that an Atman the soul within can get liberated ... in no other life form can one achieve Moksha Salvation ... the highest and the ultimate power available in the Cosmos is still with a human being ... the power to realize self and merge with the absolute consciousness.

You know, I really can't think of anything I'd want to be except a writer. I guess thats when you know you've found what you really want in life.

a whale..... it's pretty crazy that we don't ever get to explore the ocean as humans with out risk of suffocation.... a diving bird would be pretty amazing too. Could you imagine piercing the ocean with your beak?
