The title says it all.
Personally I would like to be able to go wherever I like on earth, sort of like floating around at my own free will, doing what I like, no more work and getting up early for college, just what I like when I like. Or another life to be 'reborn'.
What do you guys want after 'death'?

What makes you think all that doesn't already happen?
I mean for all we know you could already fly around noclip style and fly through walls etc
Even reincarnation is a possibility after spending some time as a ghost, although I'd rather be reborn as a human than anything else.

Personally, I wouldn't want an afterlife.
It makes almost everything you do on Earth pointless and reduces the experiences that you have on Earth when you believe that there will be something much, much better afterwards.
When Socrates was sentenced to death because of his blasphemous views he said,
"I wonder if I will be able to continue discussion with other great thinkers, philosophers and doubters even after I'm gone."
What people don't seem to realize about this is that, he's not referring directly to an afterlife, he is saying that the discussion about what is pure, good, right, wrong, true and noble has and will always go on whether he lives on or not.
His work is discussed to this day it has helped make hundreds of philosophical breakthroughs and has given millions of lives meaning, if that isn't immortality then I don't know what is.
So, for me, it matters only what you do on this planet with the time that you are given, the offer of an afterlife is an offer of something that isn't worth having because it reduces everything that has ever occurred on this planet into pointless nothingness.

I just want to float around and see what happens to the earth and the universe in the future, see if we ever make it off this planet, if we ever make contact with extraterrestrial life, things like that.

I just want to be able to start anew...
And then, make the right decisions.

I would prefer a endless cycle of life rather than just being able to be some floating ghost or go to heaven.
For instance, once you die, you're just born again from some random parents.
