I'm looking at these lists and thinking about what I would list myself, and seven things aren't readily coming to mind. I'm getting a little scared here... :S

There are a few things, but...ah, I should get some sleep and devise a serious list later.

Same here. But I'm more or less content with my PC until Crysis2 comes out. My $700 build can open a can of wh00pa$$ on a $2000 Alienware in terms of framerate. There comes a point where the cost/performance ratio drops like BP stock and the next upgrade costs more than your current PC does. :D

Okay, so I had a bit of an identity crisis and panic attack last week, but I've had some time to clear my head and I've come up with seven things:

1. Become fluent in at least one language other than English (I've learned a lot of Spanish already, and it'd be nice to know German considering where I am right now)

3. Improve my guitar and brass skills to at least near-professionalism
4. Learn to play the piano
