See the birth and widespread use of nanotechnology, the miracle of tomorrow.

Hmmm... Lessee....

5- Seeing Morcheeba in concert used to top my list. Then I got to see them in concert (I walked around announcing that I could "now die happy" for weeks, terrifying everyone around me). Since that's done, I guess seeing Radiohead in concert is fairly up there, too.

4- Hold public office- I guess that means I have to declare a political party, doesn't it?

3- Visit every continent (so far, 3 down). In particular, I REALLY want to see Macchu Pichu.

2- Out my dad (a politician in upstate NY who ran on a homophobic, "let's run the gays out of town" platform) for the abusive, child support stiffing asshat he is and make sure EVERYONE knows he used to be a womanizing cocaine dealer.

1- Most importantly- GET PUBLISHED!!!

On a less serious note, I would LOVE to be able to seduce Stephan Colbert before I die, but I'm fairly sure that ain't in the cards (besides, he's married and all).

Change the world.

Specifically, get a Ph.D. in psychology, do the research to prove my theories on relationships and depression, and see that the results of my research are presented to the general public in a form that can be easily understood and implemented, thereby allowing people to make better use of their time, decreasing the divorce rate and the suicide rate, and vastly increasing the amount of joy in the world.

First I need to get a job, pay off my debts, and save enough to go to one of the college where the research this is based on is being done (Wellesley and Harvard, so not exactly inexpensive). I'll have to start as an undergraduate, but that's not too bad, since there are a lot of unrelated classes I want to take anyway.
