Speech. Coherant speech more than a few grunts and one or two utterly unintelligible "words." That would be very nice.

I would love a better brain. A brain that could process thousands of frames per second. (as opposed to 24) i would like to be able to read a book by just looking at it as a picture and know everything from just looking at it. Id love to have a powerful mechanical mind (know how to build anything i can dream).

To be at ease during socializing and, in turn, be energized by it---rather than the exact opposite!! !

Normalcy.

If I could wake up one day to find that I'm married, living in the suburbs with 2.4 kids, a dog and a cat, and we go on vacations and have health insurance and a retirement plan, that would be nice.

I want my parents to be back together in a normal, loving relationship, and for me to be on better terms with them. I also want a loving girlfriend who will be willing to put up with my eccentricities. As well, I would love to be rid of my more-disruptive obessive traits, but not necessarily the ones that enable me to do well with thing like fixing computers and doing school assignments.

For my girlfriend to feel better mentally & physically. My 2nd choice would be for me to lose my physical disabilities; have normal 20/20 eyesight & no tremor disorder.

Simple companionship. Someone who truly gets me. Something to live and fight for. A reason to exist.

To be in Heaven worshipping God. Being ONE with EVERYTHING. Where Time & Space blend into a single moment, and that feeling of Universal Love & individuals blending into ONE.

I choose the actor. I observe NT's. I listen to their socializing. I practice it, so in social situations I can just emulate/mimic what is expected.
It isn't natural for me, but it enables me to "fit in".
It is VERY tiring and draining, but at least we can appear like them even though it is an act. Like being on the stage.
They can't see it is emulation, and so we are accepted.

I would like better social skills, so I won't feel awkward when I am the first person to talk or ask something.

I used to think the one thing I wanted that money couldn't buy was to just be normal, but with the right meds and a good therapist, I'm starting to like myself a bit better now. :D

Well instant friendship without the hassles of people getting to know me better :( Average intelligence as I rarely find people who can keep up with all of my techno babble.

True world peace that isn't forced or a hopeless delusion, but is created upon a mutual understanding that we will all end up destroying ourselves and this living and breathing planet as will ....

For God to be a real thing and to get rid of the reality that the true meaning of life is the fact that we are all apes who DNA was altered just to be slaves to an alien race that the rich elite believe in. There's no good or evil but the time we have alive and only the super rich can truly experience what living is ...
