No. I would be miserable. If you lived forever everyone you knew and met would die.
"Just the endless procession of days, months, years... My teacher left me to my darkest lesson, that in the end, we are alone, and there is nothing but the cold, dark wasteland of eternity."
That quote is from Queen of the Damned and it's true.

1) I would spend my life in a large house situated in woods or in a big park;
2) I would study alchemy until I find the stuff that will bring eternal life to those who I love, I would travel a lot and compose music;
3) I would tell people to believe in themselves;
4) I would make friends in many countries;
5) I would set a date if I fail to do the above mentioned. |

Gain ultimate knowledge, I would use the time to become something that can not be reached in one life time, such as master at every art and become a god over the world. If I manage to spread it I am sure not going to give it to anyone who could better me or dominate me as the leader, though maybe a scapegoat would not be a bad idea. Also maybe change my bodies image till it appears like a vampire, then I could strike fear into those who apose me *lightning* ha ha ha.

I'd retire to a lovely country house, and live like Stanley Kubrick. In desolate luxury. I'd still probably dislike most people, and thus avoid them. I'd study and read everything I've ever wanted to. I'd collect whatever caught my fancy, no matter the cost.

Travelling, meeting people, living decades in small towns, and writing all about it.
| Adrenaline wrote: | | What would you want to do with your life? |
Experience everything.
| Adrenaline wrote: | | What would you tell people? |
Nothing that they didn't need to know.
| Adrenaline wrote: | | How would you treat people? |
Like actors in a play that I'm reviewing.

No.

learning stuff and making stuff and playing
| Quote: | | what would you want to do with your life? |
change the atmosphere into something that makes people peaceful and happy
turn deserts into nice places, and do the same on Mars, etc.
but probably first do it as a simulation.

interesting things I know
| Quote: | | how would you treat people? |
nicely
| Quote: | | would you want a set date for it all to end? |

| I'd like a little underground bunker with stocks of cannabis and food enough to last me a couple of hundred years. |

I would construct a transdimensional device. After it is complete I would terraform my own world. A transdimensional device is a machine that allows travel through spacetime.
