AND NO WISHING FOR MORE WISHES!!

Answer 1

1. That all my fictional characters could be real.
2. That I could have magical powers at my command.
3. I could live forever.

Answer 2

I'd act on a personal level because I don't want to screw things up... sure it would sound great to implement something as wide-sweeping as national health care, but that may have long-term implications that would not be for the best. So, in no particular order:

-- I would wish for a large sum of money.
This is not because I am greedy (well, a little bit), but because I would like to be able to use that money to send my brother to college and myself to graduate school, make sure that my parents are secure in their retirement, and pay for the health care of my grandparents.

-- I would wish to be male.
If something as improbable as a genie can exist, then it's possible for this to happen. It would save me a great deal of time, money, pain, and stress to instantly become my proper sex.

-- I would wish to be rid of my 4S.
I have Soft Sound Sensitivity Syndrome, so basically everything is far louder than it should be. If I didn't have this, it would be a lot easier for me to be around people and get along with them, which would really improve my relationships with family, friends, classmates, casual acquaintances, and even complete strangers. Who knows, with the auditory assault removed, I may even be able to enter a romantic relationship, and that'd be great.

They're pretty selfish, I guess, but that's what I'd wish for. World peace and an end to hunger and decent politicians just don't seem like they'd work for something as simple as a wish... it's kind of impractical.

Answer 3

1. End the slavery: basically, I'm a fair trade fanatic who is working towards fair trade in my local community, but if we could eliminate the problem all together, although it would collapse my cause, it would make this world such a better place, and in turn end a lot of the poverty issues in 3rd world countries.

2. Meet Allison Mack: I take no shame in admitting my love for Allison - I'm completely in awe of how down to earth she is, how incredibly compassionate and philosphical she's capable of being. Since I began reading her blogs, I've been left to ponder over many issues and have found myself challenging my own views, which I personally think has been a great thing for me: I don't feel as narrow minded nowadays.

3. A healthy and happy family: Both now and in the future. This of course includes my family at present and in the future, as well as my future husband and any offspring I may have. I wish for them to be happy in whatever they do and to be healthy and enjoy each day as it comes.

Answer 4

1. An affordable cure for every disease.
2. Jobs for everyone; no unemployment.
3. Universal Health Care, kind of with #1.
oh.. and a personal #4 I just thought of...
4. An extensive library of sheet music from every artist, with my grand piano. I'd get so much more from listening to music if I could play it =]
5. I wish I had the right to wish for more wishes.

Answer 5

1. Word Peace *smiles toward pageant judges*
2. Precise and 100% accurate gaydar/bidar/straightdar
3. No more zits, -forever-. So nice skin would be a giant plus.

Hey, at least number 1 wasn't selfish.

; ; I know Word Peace is completely idealistic, but hey, I'm a hopeless optimist about that kind of stuff lol

Answer 6

1. Absolute power.

2. That pretty much covers everything. OK, that I could seduce anyone I wanted in public without anyone caring.

3. That the bad people, the psychos, the meddlers, the users would all disappear, maybe to their own world where they can prey on each other.

Answer 7

1. End poverty.

2. Eliminate all types of bigotry.

3. Create free cures for ALL diseases, genetic, sexually transmitted, or otherwise.

6. No biased religions.

Answer 8

I would wish to:

1. Be happy in life

2. Be successful

There will never be world peace, and if you wished for it, the world would be chaos. I don't know if anyone said that yet, but it is a stupid wish.
