What three things?

Little One asked me yesterday - ‘If you could choose anything, what three things would you change about yourself, or what superpowers would you have?’
My three choices would be:
To be taller (I don’t like having to look up at people!)
To have a good memory (that one would have really changed my life in so many ways!)
And my superpower would be the ability to fall asleep again easily after waking up!
My partner can do this and I am so jealous! So many times I wake at 5:30 am and just knowing I have to get up in an hour and a half pretty much guarantees that I will just lie there counting off the time until I do have to get up. And after a few days of that I’m just exhausted : (
So what would you choose?

I used to be incredibly shy as a teenager and it lasted for a long time. I wasn't afraid of meeting people in a social setting, but any situation that put me 'in front' of other people, or any kind of confrontation, I would rather die. I once had to take beta blockers to enable me to give a 2-minute talk!
Then, when I was 36, it suddenly went away, just like that! I have no idea why. Wish it had happened sooner though.

I wish people understood me better, My hair grew faster. For the first time in years I have let my hair grow (lol) and last but not the least my belly fat disappears.

@Fleura Mine gets scantier and that is because my hair is always cut in steps and so until the top most step reaches the shoulders I will have to patiently wait and I will.

That is a good question.
I think that I would like to have increased metabolism, I feel quite sluggish more often then I would like to be.
I wish that I could speak in front of people easier. I get tongue-tied rather easily, and prefer others to do the talking.
And I agree with you on your superpower, I wish that I could fall asleep and stay asleep until the morning alarm easier. That isn't easy for me.
The only problem is that I do not know exactly how to tackle 1 of those issues never-mind all 3 of them, although I do take prescribed medication for the first one.

The ability to fly. I really don't have patience for traffic and I want to get to places quite fast. And I love traveling so I would really love it if I could fly anywhere in this word.
There's nothing I would want to change about myself. Well I couldn't think of anything at the moment.

I would like to be taller, too. I’ve been shrinking with age and feel drilled into the floor around my boys.
I’d love to have had the life I have now when I was younger.
And, I’d like to be able to fly, just to get where I want to go quickly without being stuck in traffic.

@Fleura I had a great life growing up. I was talking more about my young adult life and worrying about having and subsequently earning enough money to send the kids to college and grad school, overnight camps, private school, and traveling.
