Is it difficult for you to look into someone's eyes when you are talking to them?
You are on a flight from Honolulu to Chicago non-stop. There is a fire in the back of the plane. You get enough time to make ONE phone call. Who would you call?
- I don't know. I'd probably be torn between trying to help people get out of the plain and saying goodbye to someone. If I had to make a call, I'd probably call my mom and have her put me on speaker so I could say goodbye to her, my dad, and my brother all at once.
You are at the doctor's office and he/she has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live.....
- (A) Do you tell anyone/everyone you are going to die? Probably just my family, and I'd make a goodbye post on my livejournal, but I wouldn't tell them all I was dying. I'd tell Tay, Kirstie, Karla, and Pauline, though. Definitely.
- (B) What do you do with your remaining days? I'd probably stay at home and try to act as normally as possible. I'd just want to spend every waking moment with my family, to be honest.
- (C) Would you be afraid? I deal with situations like this differently than most people around me. As soon as I found out that something could be wrong, I'd have my melt down. And then, when I found out I was actually dying, I wouldn't sit and cry or fall apart. I'd stay strong, because I'd need to be for my family. They'd be falling apart and they'd need a shoulder to lean on. I want to be that shoulder.
You can have one of the following two things: trust or love?
- I'm not sure. This is one of those two-things-you-can't-live-without-but-you-still-have-to-pick-just-one scenarios. SIGH. I guess, love. I'd want to experience that at least once before my time on this Earth was up.
You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late one more time you get fired. What do you do?
- Depends, I guess. If I'm in the middle of New York City, I'd probably point it out to people, trying to get someone to help. And somehow, I'd still make it to work on time. But if it was my pet, like my current dog, I would jump in the canal to save him in a heartbeat.
If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go?
Think of the last person who you really knew that died. You have the chance to give them 1 hour of life back, but you have to give one year of your life. Would you do it?
- I don't know... I might do it, for my grandma. I know my mom really misses her a lot. So, yeah, I probably would do it.
Are you the kind of friend that you would want to have as a friend?
- Um, actually, yes. I'm very loyal and I'm always there for my friends, no matter what. I hope everyone I'm friends with likes having me as their friend and wants me to be around them. I think/hope I'm a really good friend.
Does love = sex?
- No. Love can = sex, but it doesn't always = sex.
Your best friend dies, what would you do?
- I'd be really devastated. Losing a best friend isn't the end of the world, but it definitely makes you lose something that helped give meaning to your life. If I lost Tay or Kirstie, I honestly don't think I could stay completely sane the way I've been able to these past few months. They keep my feet on the ground.
When was the last time you told someone HONESTLY how you felt?
- Um, probably Tay. I tell her everything. I try not to unload too much on Kirstie these days, because she has so much going on in her life.
What would be harder for you, to tell someone you love them or that you hate them?
- That I love them. It'd be me putting my heart on the line and that's really hard for me to do. I have a lot of trust issues, so it seems next to impossible. Telling someone I hate them is easier, because I've never truly hated anyone before. It's an emotion that masks hurt feelings.
What do you think would be the worst thing for you to give up on?
Excluding romantic love, when was the last time you told someone you love them?
- I told my dad that I love him when he left for work after lunch and I told my mom that I love her when she get home from work this afternoon.
If you had to go back in time and change one thing, what would it be?
- I don't think I'd change anything. My past has shaped me into the person that I am today, you know? I don't think I want to change anything, really. I'd love to just go into the past though, and see things without being physically touched by them? Like the Holocaust, WWII, etc.
Imagine. It is a dark night, you are alone, it is raining outside, you hear a noise. What do you do?
- Um, hide? roooofl. I really don't know. Probably sit in my brother's room on the floor with him and my dog. haha.
Would you give a homeless person CPR if they were dying?
- I would, if I knew how to give CPR.
Are you old-fashioned?
- It depends on the subject, to be honest.
Which would you choose, true love with a guarantee of a heartbreak or to never have love?
- True love with a guarantee of heartbreak. "Better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all."
