Important

Question: important?!? I had to take charge when i and my mother traveled to egypt. Describe a time when you had to take charge. What did you do? How did it effect you? i am 16 years old

Answer: In order to understand this question and, thereby answer it, we have to know how old you are. Okay - close perhaps - when I was 16 I had to fly from the East Coast to the West Coast of Florida on my own in a plane that had been used in World War II (1973?). I was scared to death. It was the first time I had flown alone, it was a family emergency and my Dad was insisting I get on a 30 year old plane HE FLEW in the WAR!! All firsts - call a cab - get to airport on time - get ticket - board "ancient" plane - (had a bathroom like on a bus) - to face the death of my beloved Grandmother. I did it. Next time I was 21 and went 1600 miles away from home to go to Law School - alone. I drove (armed to the teeth) a stick shift for the first time, etc. etc. I made it and actually graduated. It was the first time I actually had lived "away." I did board at College but it was only half an hour away. It sounds like you are a lot more mature at your age than I was, although I think we all often surprise ourselves at what we can do when we have to. Congratulations!!
