I would quite like to live forever. Watch mankind develop and technology advance. Once I got to a certain age I would like to just stop aging completely. I would like to live without pain and suffering, and be able to stay alive in space or underwater. I would like to have a perfect immune system. Be able to fight off any disease before it reaches it's early stages. As soon as I get a wound it heals.
I would like my knowledge to ever expand, never letting me forget any piece of information. To know everything there is to know, and to be able to recall any information when I needed it. I would like to live into the future, getting all the latest technology and listening to the latest music.
The only problems that I would have with immortal life would be loneliness, and the ever looming prospect of the end of the world. It would be hard watching everyone that I love die around me, and having to try and fit in once I'm alone. And also when the inevitable end of the world comes, what will I do? Just float around in space visiting solar system after solar system? Despite the loneliness, that actually sounds pretty cool. Discover new planets and life-forms, and maybe even create a new civilisation.
