I Want Super Powers
I've always fantasized about having the power from Groundhog's Day (and about a dozen other movies/shows/books) where you repeat the same day again and again, but you remember everything and get to keep all the knowledge you gained. Except in my version of the power, I would only jump back in time when I chose to (it wouldn't just repeat automatically), and I could jump back as far or as not-far as I wanted.
Think about it - if you had that power, you'd be mostly immortal (as long as you avoided stepping in front of buses and whatnot), and yet unlike most other forms of immortally, you'd still be able to grow old and die if you eventually wanted to, and you wouldn't ever have to worry about creating new identities or outliving the people you loved. You'd be able to act fearlessly, because if you screwed up you'd be able to undo it and try again. You'd have time to master yourself, and gain whatever skills and knowledge you wanted to.
