if i had a super power...

Flying, traveling at the speed of light, telekinesis, accelerated healing, invisibility, invulnerability, super strength, precognition... the list of potential superhuman powers goes on and on.

Although many of these abilities sound pretty great, I think the fictional character whose power I am most envious of is Evie Garland from Out of this World. For those of you not familiar with this 80s sitcom, it's about an average teenage girl (Evie) who happens to be half-alien, half-human (see Out of This World (TV Series) to find out more). Evie's most appealing power is her ability to freeze time, which she does by touching her two index fingers together.

Now, I don't know about you, but I think having this power would be AWESOME. With this power, the can't-go-out-because-I-have-to-study/work/clean/read/etc. problem is solved in a touch of two fingers. My only real concern would be accelerated aging. I hope that frozen time wouldn't age you at the same rate that "normal" time does. Otherwise, I'm sure I would abuse the power and end up looking 60 by the time I turned 26.

Lately, I feel that I say some variant of the phrase "not enough time" several times a day. The time scarcity I have been faced with this semester has been an overwhelming source of stress, and has tended to dominate my thoughts. It's fun to fantasize about having the ability to create extra time so easily, but honestly, I really can't afford to spend any more time daydreaming about it. Oh, what I would give for that power... Oh well. Back to working at my snail speed!

Also, I think Zack Morris had this time freezing ability as well, but only appeared to be able to use his ability for soliloquy purposes and not for anything particularly useful.
