I think Panyu is Chinese.
 
I wish all my wishes would come true when I wish for my wishes to come true.

I wish for some fish... and chips.

I wish for five dollars.

I wish for five more dollars.

Hmmm, that's it for now.

I had 1.5 pints of water, 1 pint of carrot-apple juice and an 12oz. orange cream soda today. That's it.

My wishes didn't come true, so I had two onion bagels with a little cream cheese. Oh, I'm drinking a cup of water with them, as I type this.
 
Sage
Can you say inflation?

Oh please. She's a hooker, she just needs some cash for a house or a drug fix. (fixed the country, thanks)

I'll type out some more printed wishes later. It's an entire issue.

I can honnestly say I wish I was a house cat.
 
I think i would wish for a time machine. I wouldn't want to live forever, that would just be boring, but to have the means to travel back in forward in time would be very cool.
 
I wish for some meaning to my life. A purpose would be nice.
 
Telekenisis would be nice.

But, realistically, I just wish for future security and peace of mind with my future family and everything else.

"I wish that Bayani Fernando, chairman of the Metro Manilla Development Agency, would acknowledge his lack of aesthetics and repaint the walls of metropolitain Manilla white and invite graffiti artists to paint over them. Ditto with his pink urinals and fines for spitters, loafers, oafs and litterbugs. Ditto with his pedestrian walkways. Instead he should impose higher taxes for motorists, to discouragethe purchase of cars, luxury cars and to improve rickety, smelly public transportation."
Lena Cobangbang, 29, artist, Manilla, Philippines

Dustin Ross, 28, photog, New York City, USA

Anthony, 32, fashion designer, New York City, USA

"I wish I could afford a bullet for Jean-Bertrand Aristide [former president of Haiti], Robert Mugabe [president of Zimbabwe] and Thabo Mbeki [president of South Africa] because they're fascists and I don't want to be run by fascists. Why Mbeki? Well, Aristide is a fascist, and so is Mugabe, and Mbeki is friends with both."
Leonard "Puss", 50, salesperson, Cape Town, South Africa

"I wish to kill Joseph Kony [leader of the Ugandan guerilla group The Lord's Resistance Army] and all of his supporters. They killed all my relatives and cut off my mother's mouth, ears, nose and fingers. I wish I could get him. I would kill him twice."

"I wish Africa would come out of the hellhole it's in. It would be developed but still have its own feel. What would it look like? I picture a bridge or some sort of highway that connects the whole continent from Cairo to Cape Town. It would be the longest road in the world. It would be like, wow!"

"I wish to be the leader of the street kids. We have our rights, but everybody wants to abuse us. If I became the leader we would take over this city. We would get a seat in Parliament. One day I will."
Moze Moze, 16, Kampala, Uganda

-.-.-.-

My next wish is similar to Moze's. I wish that people would pay more attention to street kids or poor teenagers (included and highlighted here are graffiti painters). They have much more interesting minds and interesting, educated views, even if you don't think about them as much as they do.
 
I wish to understand the purpose of this earth.

*Wishes are subject to change without notice*
 
For me I wish I knew the meaning of life.

I wish our dreams really did come true.

I wish we lived in a world without hate.

I wish I had superman's powers! (hehe)

I wish that Graffitti wasn't a crime and that our whole world was our canvas to express ourselves.

I wish that we could express ourselves as freely as we want without being judged by other people.

I wish people would stop judging other people by their appearance or the way they dress.

I wish we could turn back time to stop the damage we have done to our environment.

I wish all the diseases in the world could be cured.

I wish that world hunger never existed.

I wish I had Jimi Hendrix's guitar skill......

I wish I had a better guitar.....

I think my list will keep growing....
 
I wish I had enough money so that it was never an object or worry (being rich or having tons of stuff doesn't mean very much to me, I just want to live comfortably)

I wish this mono-hepatitis would just go away already. I've been sick for ages, and I'm beginning to go stir-crazy being stuck in my house all of the time.

I wish that people would stop fighting over religion.
