    (pretend you are a girl) you end up pregnant at 15 with your boyfriend who is 3 years older and your parents dont even know about him. Do you have an abortion or go through with the pregnancy?

    if the child is healthly pregnancy. If it isn't heathly which chances are it isn't and the father dumps you and runs away I might go through with the abortion

    I'll pretend..lol.

    Honestly there would be nothing more then I would want, then to get an abortion, knowing it would probably screw up my life. But I would keep the baby because I take responsibility for my actions. And just struggle/try hard to get my education etc..

    You saw one of your parents doing something that could end their marriage, would you tell your mom or father (but with good chances they would get a divorce) or keep it to yourself, even though your mom/dad deserve the truth?

    Tell her because I would want to know if my girlfriend was cheating on me.

    You have a bad case of cancer. The doctors give you 2 years to live. A company is testing a new drug that may heal cancer. There is a 50% chance of death and a 50% chance you will live and the cancer with be gone forever. Its free if you take it now. If you wait and it turns out the drug works it will cost millions of dollars, money you don't have. If it doesn't work the drug will become illegal tomorrow. So you must take it now or never. Do you?

    yes, because i will die in 2 years if i don't try it.


    You have the chance of a lifetime to go to Paris for an internship for the summer. You are awesome at the field that you are interning at, and they offer you a job there, where you would make a lot of money. Do you take it, or come back and live in the U.S?

    What kind of question is that? I'd take it as long as the language barrier isn't a problem. I'd still be an American citizen.

    Yes I would.

    Somebody gave you a pill that would make you the greatest runner ever but you would die 5 years after taking it. Would you use it?

    No.

    If you knew a rich person who had tons of nice track spikes, and wouldn't miss one if it went missing, would you take one?

    No but I would ask for a pair.

    If a person in front of you drops a dollar but you can tell by the clothes he wears that he is rich. Do you take the dollar? Leave the dollar alone? Give the man his dollar back? Tell him he dropped his dollar and you keep walking?

    I pick the dollar up and give it to him, hoping he'll tell me to keep it. Razz

    Can't think of a question.

    You and a friend always try hard to beat one another in everything. He beats you at everything but running. You break your leg. Your timing his mile race. He is on pace to beat your mile time the only thing you are better than him at. He comes in .5 better than your time. Do you give him congrats and prepare for a world of I'm better than you at everything or do you let the time on the stop watch tick for a few more seconds after he finishes?

    That's tough, but I'd have to be truthful with him.

    You find out that you failed one of your last classes in college, leaving you one credit short and meaning you'll have to come back another year. However, your professor made a mistake in the class and your grade has you passing. Do you correct him or let it slide?

    Let it slide its his fault and its his job to double check. When ever I do tell my teachers that my paper says I got a question wrong but its marked correct they just say to keep it that way.

    You find a pair of really cool unused running shoes at a invite for xc on the ground and no one is near. What do you do?

    I would give it to the guy with a megaphone or w/e and if no one claims them those suckers are mine Wink

    If you were on a plane that was crashing and there was 3 people left with only one parachute..a pregnant lady, a little boy and yourself. Who would you give the parachute too? Or would you keep it?

    Give the lady the parachute. And tell the kid to grab on to the lady with me.

    If you and your 7 year old brother were stranded on a desert island with nothing to eat or drink would you eat him or would you both die?

    I probably doubt I could ever bring myself to eat my own little brother. So I guess we would both die.. =/
    hmmm

    easy: your house is on fire, whats the first thing you grab?? (lets say family members are already out.)

    My dog (though he's kind of big to just "grab"...I'd probably have to drag him Wink )

    One day, you decide to try a new activity and find that you are phenominally good at it (new sport, game, use your imagination). You are given an opportunity to pursue it as a job, but you would have to shift your focus away from your old hobbies. You aren't completely in love with this new activity. Do you go for it?

    probably not.

    You murder someone, and plead guilty to it. You are sentenced to life in prison.
    While you're in prison false evidence is found that says that you didn't commit the murder, but someone else that you don't know did. Would you speak up and say that the evidence is false, or would you let some other guy rot in jail in your place?

    I'd speak up and say that the evidence was false. if I did it then I should be willing to pay the consequences.

    you're out with one of your good friends when you spot your "best friend" & overhear her talking behind your back. she is saying all kinds of rude things about you & letting your secrets slip. would you walk away and pretend that you never heard her talking about you, or would you confront her and risk your friendship?

    Into the ditch. It's not certain that I would die and it would mean everyone else would live.

    You indirectly witness a murder. You're the only witness, however reporting it would put your life at risk. At the same time, you have reason to believe that the murderer may be planning to kill someone else. Do you report them and take the risk, or keep quiet?

    I'd report them.

    Your mom diagnosed with terminal cancer and given 2 months to live. On the same day, you find out that you or your girlfriend is pregnant. Your mom is completely against sex before marriage, and would be crushed if she found out. Do you hide the pregnancy from her until she dies, or do you tell her?

    Tell her because she is going to die soon anyways so why keep secrets now.

    You are on a wooden ship 200 years ago. You are in a violent storm (hurricane violent) and waves are washing away all your food on deck. You are 100's of miles from anywhere and don't want to risk getting washed over board and get lost at sea forever but you have to save the food or you will starve. You then remember you are the captain and can command others to get it for you. There is 10 others on the boat and you can send them up on deck to get the food. Each person can bring back one crate of food that will last 2 days with 10 people, 4 days with 5 and so on. You are 2 weeks from the closest island with people on it.
    How many people do you send up? If they come back with food do you send them back up to get more and risk there lives again. Do you go on deck as well and try to save some food.
    Remember this is a hurricane you can easily be blown off or washed off into the ocean.

    I would send up all 10, and those who came back alive would get to eat.I would of course stay and steer the ship Wink . This question was too hard to follow for me right now. haha sorry.

    Your mom is in a coma, she's been in the hospital for 5 years with a slight chance of coming out of it. Its costing you quite a bit of money to keep her in there, and your starting to run out. Do you pull the plug or keep her in there and hope she wakes up?
