Anita, Taiwan

What is something I wish I have more time to do? Actually, I'm a member in a band at
my university and I spend a lot of time with those members practicing music but I think I
would like to have some more time to play music with them because I think to play with,
to play music with those members is really interesting.

Al, England
Something I wish I had more time to do is socialize cause I don't go out and meet
people as much as I would like to so it would be nice to be a member of a club or join a
circle of some kind where I can meet more people, perhaps at the weekend.

Barbara, Australia
Something I really wish I had more time to do would be study Japanese. At the moment,
I'm self-employed so I have to work everyday to get enough money to make ends meet
so I don't really have enough time for studying Japanese, which is what I would really
like to do. You have to spend a certain amount of time each day doing it otherwise you
won't make any progress. I really wish I had more time to do that.

Mark, Alabama
I wish I had more time to read. I enjoy reading but I waste so much time, whether on the
internet or at work. I guess I shouldn't say that work is a waste of time, but you know, I
do so many other things and I keep so busy, I never have time to read and it's the one
thing that I usually end up regretting. Many times I think, "Ah, I really need to read
more."

Ruth, England
There are many things that I wish I had more time to do but probably the main one is I
wish I had more time to spend outside looking at the beauty of nature cause we tend to
spend a lot of time inside at work and I don't think I wish I had more time for things like
watching TV or anything like that because I think that's quite boring really. I think I would
like to spend more time outside.

Simon, Canada
I wish I had more time to just hang out with friends, you know, not only me but also
friends don't have a lot of free time but since it's summer now it would be great that if
three days a week I could just hang out and have a barbeque with my friends
