    I know several people have already mentioned it, but definitely Hogwarts. I have adored the books since I was about 8, and was genuinly dissapointed when I didn't get my acceptance letter at 11. Even now I like to imagine I'm going to bump into a Dumbledore-esque guy and he's going to inform me that they'd forgot to send my letter and I am actually a witch :redface:

    My other fantasy, although not any more likely to happen, is that I am the Prime Minister. Geeky I know, but to be living in 10 Downing Street and being the head of an entire three and a half countries, it would just be amazing.

    Someone above mentioned that she wanted to look good in a bikini. I would like to look GREAT in a Speedo! To have a real superhero physique. (Along with being my generation's Einstein, as I said before.)

    The Hogwarts thing does nothing for me. I think I'd rather be Tom Swift Jr. - a teen who's an engineering genius, whose father is a multi-billionaire with huge labs and facilities, with a pretty much infinite budget to create and build anything I want. Submarines, spaceships, robot armies, matter transmitters, anything. Big fun!

    So no one wants to join me in a Lovecraftian world of adventures to Antarctica to explore mind-bending primordial ruins?

    It's an alien name, not meant to be pronounced by human vocal chords. The spelling is irrelevant. :p

    You may say Cath-ul-u, I may say Kat-Tuu-Loo.

    sing: "Let's call the whole thing off..."

    Good point about the pronunciation. You are now allowed into the Order of Dagon. I'll go ahead and take your spleen, please.

    Woop! I hope there is cake along with the awful, shambling horrors and dreadful, unspeakable tomes.

    There is cake, but to describe it to you would leave you a shuddering, gasping husk.

    There was a book by Robert Heinlein where a space ship had a drive that would transport them into different universes based on whatever the characters happened to be thinking about. And since the number of universes were infinite, all possible universes existed, so the characters were ending up in universes out of different works of fiction.

    At some point, one character says something to the effect of "whatever you do, don't anyone think of Lovecraft!"

    Hahaha. That's pretty funny.

    But then again. The point of Lovecraft was the universe was essentially natural and uncaring, only rarely toying with some random. But if you started exploring it, or read the dreaded Necronomicon by the Mad Abdul Alhazred then sh*t got serious.

    Probably Hogwarts, and if not Hogwarts (which would be so amazing! I mean, come on! You get a wand!) then Camp Half-Blood from Percy Jackson. I don't know if many of you have read it, it's a bit of a younger series, but it's amazingly good, and it would be so cool to be there.

    I would love to live through one of my favorite anime shows, such as:
    -Devil May Cry
    -Ouran High School Host Club

    OR...

    Live through a zombie apocalypse. ;-)

    But if I was to be more into living through something, I'd want to live through a fantasy of me controlling everything and how everything goes. Some may be against this, but nobody can convince me otherwise.

    How about living through a zombie apocalypse where a great soundtrack is playing all around you whenever you want?

    Then the zombies would attack me with more vigor just to shut Iron Maiden up.

    Dude, put on Killers. The more discerning zombies will unite with you and attack all other zombies (and even humans) who don't like it. It will become a just cleansing of the lands...

    Killers is good. But when in a car running zombies over there can be nothing better than Ride of the Valkyries all the way up.
