What do I want?

Food on the table.
A roof over my head.
A job that I enjoy and that I can grow. (as in my work adds to it and is what gives it its value)
To have people around me that I care about, and care for me, that can accomplish what they want and allow me to accomplish what I want.
To acquire more knowledge, so that I can better understand myself and the universe in which I live.

it would be my wish that the earth would be visited by an alien species from another arm of the galaxy. this species would be able to create wormholes and have with them several different forms of intelligent life from various star systems. their overwhelming intelligence and advanced physical systems would be evident to even earth's political and religious leaders. when they touch down on the planet and allow humans to see them........THEY LOOK LIKE MOUNTAIN GORILLAS. OTHER SPECIES RESEMBLE LARGE DOGS WITH ARMS, STILL OTHERS RESEMBLE VARIOUS NON-HUMAN ANIMALS. they have surveyed the planet and have seen factory farms, rodeo's, puppy mills, research laboratories, fur farms, dog-fighting, etc. THEY ARE PISSED!

A billion dollars would be nice. It's not that I like money. Attachment to money is something I despise. I only want a billion dollars to make it in the world entirely on my own. I can be a hermitess all I want and the bills will still get paid. I only like money for the amount of control over my life that it would bring. Besides that, I view money is somewhat detrimental. It's a motivating factor, only. People use money to motivate others into doing what they want.
Now that I think about it, it's weird that some people need money just to do something. That dollar bill has such a profound effect on their psyche and it motivates them to get up in the morning, spend eight or ten hours doing whatever, often being bored or uncomfortable. If they feel their source is under threat, they can become treacherous and viscious. It's so weird how much influence something like paper and metal has. It is, perhaps, the most powerful symbol we have on our planet.

My cats and my best friend understand me. I want the rest of the world to do the same. (Or at least some of it.)
When I get out of school, I want to get a job I don't hate that pays the bills and such for a small house.
I want to have 3 cats.
I want to know more interesting but ultimately useless facts.
I want to not change so much that I'm not the same me.
I want to not forget things so much.
I want to always have something I can obsess over that makes me happy.

I don't really care about money past paying bills. I wouldn't want to be rich, the idea scares me a bit.

Heal from the depression. Get back to my old life (before the depression). Learn how to sing. Join a rock band. Form the most awesome rock/heavy metal band in the world. Make a concert that would change rock history. Ok I´m kidding in the last two but I do want to learn how to sing. :D
