If you were given super powers, what would be the first thing you do with them?

   If I was given the power to see through things (assuming I’ll get to choose the degree I want to see through), the first thing I’d do is to treat myself to a ticket of a girls soccer game. It wouldn’t be bad or anything, maybe just a few glimpses of underwear here and there. I mean… can you imagine watching a game of soccer where all the players are in their undies? *wide grin*

   If I had the power to survive underwater and speak to sea creatures, I’d marry Aquaman.

   I would like to have the ability to travel in time. There are so many things that I am curious about from the past that I would like to see. Who wouldn’t want to follow Confucius or Aristotle around and ask them questions? (Language barriers aside…) What about see what color a T-rex really was? What if I could go see if there really was a Trojan horse?

   And I’ve been reading a lot of world history lately, and I’m always saddened by the amount of people who get caught up in the currents of change and end up being tossed aside and dying alone in jail cells or ditches. I wouldn’t want to change the past, but maybe I could just sit with them so they wouldn’t have to die alone….

   On a lighter note, maybe I’d go back in time so that I could see Miyavi at his last indies live at Nihon Budakan. ^_^; The possibilities are endless…

   We’re allowed to have any super power we want, ne? Well, I’ve been using those scalpels in the forum often enough, but it’d be pretty neat to really be able to form weapons from my blood. Besides the fact I’ll be a walking arsenal, I also won’t have to be afraid of any mugging event that happens to come my way.

   The first thing I’ll do is go to an anime convention cosplayed as someone with a huge heavy weapon. They have rules against people bringing in metal weapons… but what about those of blood? Of course… I’m hoping this power includes the amplification of a drop of blood… because otherwise, I’d die from blood loss just making my weapon.

   If I were given the power of being able to stop time by holding my breath (I once saw a Dragon Ball Z episode where one of the villians did that!) then I would definately use it in my sport- Fencing! (yes everyone- I’m a epee fencer of 7 years experience)

   I would like to hold my breath in the midle of my opponent’s attack and then have every around me freeze in time and I could see what he/she is doing, thus having time to think about how I was going to parry or avoid the attack!

   NEAT!!! I would try not to do it too often- (its more fun when you are losing sometimes- it makes you try harder lol!) but it would be soooo useful when it comes to competitions!!!!!!

   I wish I had those powers!

   I would like to see things in a slow motion and move in super speed! Imagine how I can be the fastest and first of everything. I don’t have to go through all the hassle by taking bus to work! So definitely I’ll try to run from my house to the office…hehe..I guess I even can burn more fat with it!

   i would have the power to get into people’s mind and make my science teacher go insane.
   but he already is insane…the thing is only i know it (and you guys, now) and i think it’s my duty to show the world his insanity.

   so, yeah. i would like to be a voice in his head. yup, that’s a crazy cool power.

   If I had the power of the wind and extreme dexterity…..I would ….

   Always train at night outside near a cemetery, by cutting twigs in half and trying to kill mosquitoes in the DARK !!!!

   Frankly, I simply wish for a power that actually exists in real life- that of a photographic memory. Well, I suppose I wouldn’t mind if it was a super developed memory (and hence it’s a super power) since then I wouldn’t have to worry so much about tests and learning certain things.

   Sadly, the first thing I’d do after getting such a power would be just to remember the birthdays of my family members! That’s how bad my memory is. Ugh, names and numbers….

    If I had the power to control water, I’d create a beach in the desert.
