44 Questions That Will Free Your Mind.

As you might be able to tell, I is BORED. Therefore, I have scoured the Internet instead of doing my homework in search of fun questions to answer. Here's what I got:

1) How old would you be if you didn't know how old you were?
- honestly, I think I'd be my age. Fifteen. Because even though I am mature, I still feel the need to act like an idiot every now and again. So I'm grown up, but can never resist the urge to snap back into childhood. Also, I do not have enough knowledge to be any older or wiser. I learn new things everyday.

2) Which is worse, failing or never trying?
- never trying. I believe that everything is worth a try at least once. However, I'm not saying you should do all the things that you do not want to. But I always try to go into things with an open mind. I cannot stand failing, but as long as I tried my best that is all that mattered.

3) If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don't like and like so many things we don't do?
- wow. Mind boggling question. Personally, I think that if you like something, but never do it: that there either something holding you back like a person or a sense of fear. Also, I believe that we do so many things we don't like as a result of pressure. Nobody wants to feel like an outsider, so the common human tends to stick along with what everyone else is doing.

4) When it's all said and done, will you have said more than you've done?
- I probably will have, yes.

5) What is the one thing you'd like to change most about the world?
- honestly, I'm finding it hard to think of an answer to this one. It's not that I wouldn't change anything if given the chance. I'm just not really sure what the one thing I'd change would be. Probably to just let everything be and for countries to stop getting in other countries businesses and causing wars. Maybe peace would be restored if everyone just let it be.

6) If happiness was the national currency, what would make you rich?
- love. The times when I have felt love from others have been the times where I have been the happiest.

7) Are you doing what you believe in, or are you settling for what you are doing?
- settling for what I am doing. I'm currently in school when I'd much rather be traveling the world or meeting celebrities. But education is everything, and whilst high school is free I might as well cherish every moment of education I have. Don't get me wrong, I love learning. But sometimes I wonder : I wonder if I'd learn more if I was actually out doing something practical and seeing things for myself.


8) If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently?
- knowing now that I probably have a good life span, I believe that there is no rush in settling down and that 'Mr Right' will walk into my life when the time is right. However, if I knew that I only had until 40 to live, I probably would settle for a guy instead of knowing in my heart that he is the one. Because in my life, I want to experience everything. I would probably have children in my late teens and get married even earlier. I'd want to make sure I was secure in life.

9) To what degree have you controlled the course your life has taken?
- more so since I've become older. But, I believe it is a parents job to guide their child in a certain direction, however giving them space in order to grow as an individual.

10) Are you more worried about doing things right, or doing the right things?
- in my heart, I know when I do the right thing. But if somebody sets me a task and expects me to do something in a certain way, then I will worry about doing it correctly and hoping to get their approval once I have finished.

11) You're having lunch with 3 people you respect and admire. They all start criticising a close friend of yours, not knowing that she is your friend. The criticism is disgraceful and unjustified. What do you do?
- inform them that she is my friend and while I respect their opinions, I will also forward mine. Because she is a close friend, I will know the type of person she is more than them. I will stick up for her and will not feel ashamed of having an opinion.

12) If you could offer a new born child only one piece of advice, what would it be?
- don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened. That quote will get the child through each day of it's life.

13) Would you break the law to save a loved one?
- it would depend on the deed I had to do.

14) Have you ever seen insanity where you later saw creativity?
- yes. On a college intake day, one Photography student bases their projects on abandoned buildings. To achieve the perfect shots, they had to break into buildings. The idea may seem crazy, but the pictures I saw before me were out of this world.

15) What is something that you know you do differently to most people?
- most girls are dictated with the way they put on their make up by make up guru's on Youtube. They start with a moisturiser, then go onto foundation, power, eye shadow, eyeliner, mascara, bronzer, blusher, lipstick, lipgloss. For a start, I don't even wear foundation. I put on my mascara first because that wakes up my face and gives me an idea of the kind of look I am going for based on the way my eyelashes look. I follow with bronzer, then go onto eye shadows and go onto eyeliner. I finish with a lipstick/lipgloss just the same though.

16) How come the things that make you happy don't make everyone happy?
- mind blowing question. I don't actually know. Possibly upbringing. Like rock music makes me happy because my Dad has such a passion for it and it's all I heard whilst growing up. Even though I love pop music, rock will always be my first love because it was what I was brought up with. Simples.

17) What is one thing you really want to do? What's holding you back?
- travel the world. Money.

18) Are you holding onto something you need to let go of?
- I'm currently learning to let go of something. Or someone should I say. They chose someone else and not me, and I have to deal with that. I have to deal with the fact that they wanted someone else more than me. And I am doing. I've learned that Taylor Swift is correct. That when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you, you're gunna believe them. Like I said, life is a learning experience.

19) If you had to move to a state or country besides where you live now, where would you move to and why?
- London, Miami, New York, Tenerife and South Africa are all possibilities, because I would love to visit Miami, New York and South Africa and Tenerife and London make me happy.

20) Do you push the elevator button more than once? Do you really think it makes the elevator come quicker?
- no I don't because I'm scared the elevator will get confused and stop working, leaving me trapped inside and knowing my luck the alarm will have broken.

21) Would you rather be a worried genius or a joyful simpleton?
- joyful simpleton. I love being happy :)

22) Why are you, you?
- I've just looked to people who I admire and adapted some of their ways into my own. Like my Dad for example, I try very hard to mimic his wise, open minded look on life. I believe i've inherited that, anyway. Honestly, I don't really know.

23) Have you been the kind of friend that you would want as a friend?
- yes. I'd love to have a friend like me. I'm being serious. I'm the most understanding person in the world.

24) Which is worse, when a good friend moves away, or losing touch with a good friend who lives right near you?
- the second one because I have experienced that myself for 13 years and I have only just got him back and it is honestly the best feeling in the world. Even if we're not best friends anymore, I get a smile when I see him now. And that's more than I ever thought I would ever get again.

25) What are you most grateful for?
- my parents. I absolutely love my parents to death. They are my favourite people in the whole entire world. I could not have asked to have been born to the couple that I did, because they have told me multiple times that they were thrilled with me and I was the best thing that ever happened to them. If all else fails, I know I'll always have my parents.

26) Would you rather lose all your old memories, or never be able to make new ones?
- OMG this is a hard question! :( Do I have to pick? omg I can't chose! No, I can't I'm sorry. Memories are one of my favourite things about life. I'd be distraught if any of the two happened to me.

27) Is it possible to know the truth without challenging it first?
- yes. Sometimes things just blurt out...

28) Has your greatest fear ever come true?
- no, thank goodness.

29) Do you remember that time 5 years ago when you were extremely upset? Does it matter now?
- the only extremely upsetting thing I can remember which happened about 5 years ago was giving my very first dog away due to my mum being very ill. I have another dog now who I love dearly, but at the time I was heartbroken and it took me a very long time to get over having my dog taken away from me. However, now I understand the severity of my mums illness and I understand that she did not give the dog away out of spite, but purely because she could not cope. My dog went to a very good home and probably has(or had) the best time ever.

30) What is your happiest childhood memory? What makes it so special?
- I remember making butterfly wings at nursery and being obsessed with them. I wouldn't take them off and my Dad caught me on video running around the garden in my butterfly wings. Then, I saw a real life butterfly. I just stopped and watched it for about 5 minutes: and this was all caught on camera. It's special because the video and memory truly resemble the simplicity of life when I was about 4. Oh how things change...

31) At what time in your life have you felt most passionate and alive?
- experiencing my first taste of love was something I'll never forget. Being on holiday made it all the more relaxing.

32) If not now, then when?
- sometime. Sometime soon :)

33) If you haven't achieved it yet, what do you have to lose?
- nothing. It's all about when the time is right.

34) Have you ever been with someone, said nothing, then walked away feeling like you've had the best conversation ever?
- yeah. It's that adrenaline rush, isn't it. It just does something to you which makes you smile and give off positive vibes that you can' help but feel nice :)

35) Why do religions that support love cause so many wars?
- I've asked myself that same question a few times. Nobody knows.

36) Is it possible to know, without a doubt, what is good and what is evil?
- I believe that you know in your heart whether something is good or not.

37) If you just won a million pounds, would you quit your job?
- erm I don't have a job anymore ;) But I wouldn't quit school. Education is priceless.

38) Would you rather have less work to do, or more work that you enjoy doing?
- if you enjoy something, you always want more, right? ;)

39) Do you feel like you've lived this day a hundred times before?
- no. Each day is totally different and a new learning experience.

40) When was the last time that you stormed into the dark with only a soft glow of an idea you strongly believed in?
- last week actually. One Direction are a boyband which I love dearly and I will back them up 100% no matter what. I strongly believe in the boys and had a confrontation with someone who despises them. I kept my cool, said my peace and felt proud to have stuck up for the boys like I did.

41) If you knew that everyone was going to die tomorrow, who would you visit?
- I'd visit my mum and dad, my family. My old dog, my new dog. The people who have dug their way into my heart and the people who believed in me even when I didn't.

42) Would you be willing to reduce your live expectancy by 10 years to become extremely attractive or famous? 
- no. I believe that I am attractive, I like the way that I look and I like my life.

43) What is the difference between being alive and truly living?
- alive, you're just there breathing away. Truly living, you're filling your days with things that take your breath away.

44) If we learn from our mistakes, why are we so afraid of making a mistake?
- fear of rejection. Everybody wants to be accepted.
