BEST MEMORYI woke up one morning and realized that it was my birthday. I got up and walked to the bathroom. I washed my face at the sink. Then I walked to the stairs and went down. I walked to the kitchen and ate breakfast. Then I whiled away the day playing with my baby sister, Emily, who was just two months old at the time. Then it was dinner. We ate and, as we ate, Dad told my story of my birthday. After dinner, it was time to take a shower. After my shower, I opened my gifts. I got a diary, an awesome book about caring for kittens and a book about a teenager who dates several guys in a year. Then, when I thought all the presents were opened, my mother said, “I think there is just one more present left.” I looked around and didn’t see any. Then, I looked back at Mum and she was holding a gray and white kitten with a red bow on it. I squealed in happiness. “Oh, mother, oh father. Thank you so much!” I said. And from that day on, I cared for the kitten and loved her and named her Princess.
WORST MEMORY When my grandma died. We were very close to each other. She was very old and very sick with dementia. I was with her when she took her last breath. So were my parents and Emily. We cried a lot.

AND YOUR HONEY GIVIN' ME BRAIN, YOU CAN CATCH ME WATCHIN' AI[/FONT][/center][/COLOR]
HAVE AN IDEA WHERE YOU BELONG? WELL LETS FINDOUT IF YOU'RE RIGHT[/FONT][/center][/COLOR]
• • I am extremely social. I don't know how I'd get by without my friends.
• • I enjoy the company of other people, but I'm not afraid to go it alone if I have to.
• • While I enjoy a good discussion or debate, I'm generally happiest by myself with a good book.
• • When around other people, I'd prefer to be the person in charge. It's easiest to take credit and assign blame that way.
2) WOULD YOU EVER BREAK A PROMISE TO A TRUSTED FRIEND?
• • No, when I make a promise to someone I care about, I intend to keep it.
• • It's hard to deal with hypotheticals. I would try to make the best decision I could based on the information I had at the time.
• • If it was for a good cause, I might have to.
• • Situations change, and my word is most certainly not my bond. I have no problems with outright lying if there's an advantage to be gained in doing so.
3) WHILE WALKING AROUND TOWN, YOU NOTICE A MAN WITH A KNIFE TO ANOTHER MAN'S THROAT. THE ARMED MAN HAS HIS BACK TO YOU. WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
• • Walk away as quietly as possible. It's not my problem, and I might get hurt if I get involved.
• • Maybe try to throw something at the guy? I'm going to do something to help because it's the right thing to do, but I wouldn't really know exactly what until I was in the situation and reacting.
• • Watch from a safe distance to figure out what's going on. Gather as much information as possible and then contact the police with all the details necessary to track the criminal.
• • Get away from the dangerous situation quickly and alert the authorities immediately.
4) IF I HAD THE CHOICE, I'D MOST LIKE TO BE:
• • The person in charge.
• • A scholar, researcher, or academic.
• • A renowned hero.
• • The life of the party.
5) YOU'RE BORED ON A SATURDAY NIGHT. WHAT NEXT?
• • I'd find a good book/magazine to read or maybe a nice program on the Discovery channel.
• • I'd go out with some friends.
• • I'd look for something more exciting -- movies, games, TV...anything's more exciting than just sitting around.
• • Send a quick email to a boss or teacher with a question I already know the answer to. That way they'll think I'm working over the weekend and will look on me more favorably.
6) I PRIMARILY USE THE INTERNET FOR...
• • Downloading things for free that I'd otherwise have to pay for.
• • Talking to friends via instant messaging and email.
• • Learning new things and gathering information that's hard to get otherwise.
• • Playing online games.
7) YOU TEACHER HAS GIVEN YOU AN EXTREMELY REPETITIVE AND BORING TASK. HOW DO YOU PROCEED?
• • Dig in and get started. The sooner I start, the sooner I'll get finished.
• • Look for a more intelligent way to do it. If it's essentially repetitive, then there's probably a more efficient way of approaching the problem that my boss/teacher either hasn't considered or wants me to learn about on my own.
• • Put it off as long as possible and then do it all right before the deadline in a heroic burst of effort.
• • Convince someone else to do the task for me and still take credit for the overall result.
8) WHEN IS DECEPTION JUSTIFIED?
• • It's always wrong to tell a lie or mislead someone.
• • Depends on which moral framework you're using as a frame of reference really. Justified by whom? And for what reasons?
• • When it works to my advantage.
• • When it's for a good cause.
9) THOSE WHO SUCCEED DO SO BECAUSE...
• • They use the advantages that they have to their fullest potential.
• • They are willing to take chances.
• • They have trained their mind to be quick.
• • They didn't give up trying.[/size]

SELECT EACH STATEMENT THAT YOU FEEL APPLIES TO YOU BUT UNDERLINING THE STATEMENT. YOU MAY ASWER AS MANY STATEMENTS AS YOU LIKE.[/FONT][/center]
• • I tend to distrust others upon first meeting them.
• • I'm not afraid to do what's right.
• • I enjoy learning new things.
• • I am at my happiest when I'm surrounded by my friends.
• • I am manipulative.
• • I am brave.
• • I am studious.
• • I am loyal.
• • I'm only willing to put myself in danger if there's a substantial reward.
• • I tend to react impulsively without thinking everything through before acting.
• • I understand and can explain what E=mc^2 actually means.

• • Power is important to me.
• • My ideals are important to me.
• • Learning is important to me.
• • Hard work is important to me.
• • Concern for others makes you weak because your concern can be used against you.
• • Running away from a problem will only make life hard because it gives the problem time to get worse.
• • Being satisfied with the amount of learning you currently have leads to stagnation because your mind isn't being challenged.
• • Refusing to help a friend is dishonorable because your friends depend on you.
• • I pirate video games, music, or movies because I want them and either don't have enough money to buy a legitimate copy or just simply don't feel like paying.

• • I have participated in an activity that I have no real interest in just because I wanted to hang out with my friends.
• • I would use information imparted to me in confidence to my own advantage for personal gain.
• • I would break any rule if I felt that it served the greater good to do so.
• • I would put in the effort to genuinely master a skill even if it meant sacrificing other more enjoyable pursuits.
• • I would go out with friends even if it had negative consequences for other areas of my life.
• • I would betray my family in order to obtain something that I really wanted.
• • I would bravely intervene in a situation even if chances were slim that I could make a difference and very likely that I would be killed.
• • I would commit a serious crime if it meant furthering the cause of science and knowledge.
• • I would betray my ideals to help a friend.
• • I tend to focus on winning or coming out ahead.
• • I don't mind taking risks and living a little dangerously.
• • I have read a textbook or portions of a textbook of my own volition for fun.
• • I enjoy attending parties with my friends.
• • I would prefer to avoid or divert problems by whatever means I have at my disposal.
• • I prefer to approach problems primarily with gut instinct instead of pure logic.
• • I tend to approach problems logically rather than through intuition or emotion.
• • I tend to solve problems through persistence and dedicated work.
• • I believe that cunning people are the best leaders.
• • I believe that courageous people are the best leaders.
• • I believe that intelligent people are the best leaders.
• • I believe that trustworthy people are the best leaders.
• • Winning is more important than people.
• • Just causes are more important than people.
• • The pursuit of knowledge is more important than people.
• • Loyalty and dedication are more important than people.
• • I have pawned off a problem onto someone else.
