To be a pretty girl
Growing up now, I’ve learned I was always a girl. I’m working on the pretty part.
I wished I was more creatively inclined. Building stuff, playing music, drawing, the works. I’ve bounced off it a couple times since then but I’m at a job where I work with my hands now so I’m getting money and practice 😗
I also wished I was a girl but that turned out to be more possible then I knew at the time
More from my college years, but an ex made off with more than half of my video game collection right before scalpers/speculators started driving prices through the roof. Most of my GameBoy games. My favorite GameCube games. All of my Genesis, GameGear, Xbox360, and N64 games plus each of those consoles. Including multiple complete in box games. The argument was that she found and bought some of what she kept, but it was always bought using my fucking money. She didn’t have a job past our first year together. Really had me swindled. Don’t mingle finances until you’re married folks.
From childhood? A whole bunch of LEGO sets that are either out of print now or are still stupid expensive. Hard to justify $50+ on LEGO.
Happiness and peace of mind.
Feeling loved and lots of hugs.
I’ve always wanted to visit a factory. I’ve been in an airbus factory and that was nice, there were Tibetan monks there too. But it wasn’t like a factory factory.
can you explain the monks or were they just there?
Freedom, my own place, stability.
Being able to exist without making my existence political
My dog back >:(
😔
I mean it’s been like 20 years, I’m over it, but kid me is still angsty

Not sure if you were going for answers more like “ice cream for dinner every night” or “not having glass bones and paper skin, not breaking my legs every morning and not breaking my arms every afternoon”.
My frivolous answer is a balcony. My depressing answer is a best friend and/or a sister close to my age who is nice to me. OR for my dad to die. OR to wake up and learn that my life was a dream and I’m someone else.
Idk, I was a depressing kid.

You can get a good quality repro cart, repro box, and repro players guide all together on AliExpress for ~$80 if you shop around. Or at least you could a year ago.
Still super overpriced, but cheaper than dealing with a scalper.
I would sooner put it on my Everdrive and call it a day, tbh. I will probably never own it unless the market crashes.
Yeah, at that point you’re most of the way to a flash cart’s cost anyway. Was a big gift for someone I knew cared about having something to display.
You never emulated it either?
Of course I have. But I am a physical game collector.
Less mental illnessess and back problems.
Wast amounts of money.
Maturity.
I had a couple of idols in my childhood I wanted to meet (technically three, but I kind of accepted the third would be out of the question). I met one, and am proud to say we’re great friends who regularly communicate, but the other one remained unmet, and a few years ago, he sadly committed suicide. RIP Jason David Frank.
