Okay, time for today's would you rather!!! would you rather have the ability to read minds or the ability to teleport! I would love to hear you opinion!!!

Ooh, this is a tough one... I think I'll choose teleportation :)

I would have the ability to....teleport! Definitely no way that people would know where I came from!

I had a debate in my head, but I settled on teleportation, since its the most practical choice...although I would love to have mind reading also!

Teleport! There is no way I want to know what everyone really thinks of me!

I would rather have the ability to teleport! I would never be late to school again!
