If you had 3 wishes...

what would they be?
no one can ask 4 more wishes!
I searched this and there was none

1)All time spent on internet
2)Not go to school because my husband is rich!
3)My husband is Karl Urban AKA Eomer

Re: If you had 3 wishes...

I fail to see what wealth has to do with not going to school.

If your husband is wealthy then you wouldn't need to work, so you wouldn't need a good education. This is one of my wishes as well

Yes, of course. That's why rich men are always married to bimbos.

I really don't go after rich guys.. quite the contrary. The more interesting people always seem to be worse off. But anyways, as I figure, I'll end up one of two ways:
married to a rich man
or living in a cardboard box under a bridge. I can't decide which is worse.

In this place will I abide, and my heirs, unto the ending of the world.'

'Then Tuor arrayed himself in the hauberk, and set the helm upon his head, and he girt himself with the sword; black were sheath and belt with clasps of silver. Thus armed he went forth from Turgon's hall, and stood upon the high terraces of Taras in the red light of the sun. None were there to see him, as he gazed westward, gleaming in silver and gold, and he knew not that in that hour he appeared as one of the Mighty of the West, and fit to be father of the kings of the Kings of Men beyond the Sea, as it was indeed his doom to be; but in the taking of those arms a change came upon Tuor son of Huor, and his heart grew great within him. And as he stepped down from the doors the swans did him reverence, and plucking each a great feather from their wings they proffered them to him, laying their long necks upon the stone before his feet; and he took the seven feathers and set them in the crest of his helm, and straightway the swans arose and flew north in the sunset, and Tuor saw them no more.' -Of Tuor and his Coming to Gondolin

1) Go 20 years back in time and give myself a major kick in the pants.

2) Ride in the Tour de France.

Save 3) for a rainy day.

Without an education, you couldn't read. How would you enjoy Tolkien then? Um, is your husband going to be educated or a Forest Gump type that is just wealthy? If he isn't dumb, maybe he can read the books to you.

What an easy life

I have contemplated this subject and well, I have come to what would seem to be a crazy decision. I would use the first wish to rid myself of the other two wishes. My life is not what I want it to be but how am I going to learn to be the person I want to be if all I have is made easy for me or if I change the things that bug me in the world? Yes it would be nice to use it for some noble cause but God will take care of that. I knew you would think it crazy but that is me. Deal with it.

You know, that's a very insightful answer. I like it a lot.

Hmm three wishes?
Ok 1) to see my friends who I haven't seen for ages again (they're either living abroad or far away in other parts of England)
2) to be able to dance and sing on stage for the rest of my life but never become famous.
£3) to meet a wonderfully, lovely eloquent man who I can spend the rest of my life with- well you didn't say they had to be realistic!

Miranda - what is so unrealistic about your wishes? I hope they come true for you anyway

Woof, woof woof! Bark, bark bark. Where's the pellet gun! Barking dogs drive me batty too!

1. I wish I was filthy rich so my husband could stay home all day and do whatever he wants.

2. I wish our kids were happily grown up (and out of the house! ) and brought the "well mannered granchildren" over once a week, for about 4 hours.

3. I wish for good health for me and my husband.

Well I mean, obviously have an education, but not an education in a career. None of the careers I'm interested in make very much money. There are some excellent artists on the side of the street drawing beautiful works of art with chalk. Then there are "artists" who splat paint on a canvas and are living in really big fancy houses and make lots of money doing it. It's such a sad situation... it's like your financial success as an artist depends not on how good you are, but whether or not you are in a certain situation and what oppurtunities you have... and not everyone has the same oppurtunities. And Archeology... I would love to study psychology though. The human mind is so complex, we are just beginning in a very vast field of discovery.

I was just playing about that. In a way it would be nice to marry a rich man so I wouldn't have to get a career in something I'm not interested in in order to live. But then, all of the most fascinating people seem to be poor.

What would I know? 14 years old, 8th grade, and already devoting her future to living in a cardboard box

trust me, you'll change your mind eventually. However, if this is still your ultimate dream at age 16 or 17, I would suggest a visit to your school's guidance counsellor.

edit: PS. Jackson Pollock is not art.
