THE BREAKDOWN

The cutie barista at Starbucks gives you a wink. You:

a. Assume some froth flew into his eye and it’ s irritated.

b. Ask him what his fave order is and then gauge the situation.

c. Slip him my number while I slowly lick whipped cream off the rim of my cup.

It’ s your BFF’ s office party, and you’ re unsure of the dress code. What do you wear?

a. A conservative pantsuit and penny loafers. I don’ t want to embarrass my girl by overdressing.

b. A cocktail dress with a blazer. I can always take it off when people go Gangnam Style.

c. A sequined gown with a Yoncé ponytail. My go-to party trick: Swing it around like a helicopter.

Sick day! But really, you just have personal stuff to take care of. What are you doing?

a. Stick to indoor chores. And then actually make myself sick from the stress of possibly being found out.

b. Pull a J Biebs and run my errands incognito with a wig on. They’ ll never know.

c. Convince the squad to ditch work and join me for a day rave— Snapping the entire thing.

You’ ve won an incredible trip to a secluded island. Only thing is, the vacation is just for one. You in?

a. File that under no. I can’ t just jetset away. What about my cat?!

b. Yes! I’ ll bring a Z-pak, update all my vaccinations, and carry a flare gun just in case....

c. Duh. Can I be dropped atop a cliff to parachute to my bungalow? Please, say yes.

The side-hustle biz you’ re developing isn’ t ready to launch, but you hear your arch nemesis has the same idea. Do you release it?

a. That makes me uncomfy. If it fails in beta mode, I’ ll die of shame.

b. Yeah, it makes sense to. I’ ll work on the glitches during round two.

c. Drop it like it’ s hot! Now or never, baby. That’ s the motto.

Mostly A’ s

SAFE AND SOUND

You won’ t do anything that could turn out badly. Being super careful is smart, but you may be robbing yourself of future growth. Living on the edge, on occasion, prevents you from digging a habitual hole. Break free from your comfort zone once in a while. You just might have fun!

Mostly B’ s

WOMAN WITH A PLAN

You’ re only down to take a leap if you have a firm plan B in place. Preparation is awesome, but always worrying about backup options keeps you from living in the moment. Next time you go to a bonfire, leave the fire-extinguisher at home.

Mostly C’ s

DANCING WITH DANGER

You’ re down for every sitch, always. Risky biz is your style, and IDGAF is tattooed on your ass( a friend did it). But yes-ing it all can take a toll on your relationships, wallet, and energy. Consider the outcome of your choices before making them. Your loved ones and their stress levels will thank you.
