I have so many ideas in my head that it's impossible to do all of them and most of the time I don't even know with which to start.
SO MUCH THIS. I usually get ideas while riding some long distance in a bus/car/train listening to music. And it is actually never the music I want to edit to. And that's the problem because then I need to find both the footage and the music.
Last time, trying to start one of these, I ended up editing one scene in a week - total color changes, background changes and... sparkles.

I think I'm gonna start to learn something about animation, seriously.

:| No joke.

But its the same for me as well. Usually, though, I watch my footage beforehand so I have an idea of what I'm working with so I guess my imagination kinda works a bit with reality but I really wish I could just put my imagination on the editing system and let it just know what I'm imagining. >.<

I put a song on repeat and think of all the things I've seen in anime that act out the lyrics. The opposite also works.

Even though I haven't been making a lot of AMVs lately, I have several ideas in paper because of the above.
Almost as hard as fighting a Holy Paladin.

I get ideas from every situation I live. What kind of idea do you think I'll get after having 1 accident, 1 person dead, 1 punishment and the hate of a family?

seems like you're starting to meet me well, because it's a mix of the 2 ideas, since the two extremes are so different and so near at the same time.
