A friend and I were discussing cool things that could happen on the aformentioned day. One particular topic was the idea of the awakening of magic in every human being.
Now, if you've ever seen the show Misfits, they presented with a cool idea in the first season of magic being somehow related to personality. The loner turns invisible. The slut is irresistable. The guy who regrets things can change the past. You get the idea.
So based on who you are, what type of power do you think you'd have?
Also, would society survive such a change?
I have somewhat of a savior complex, so I imagine my power would be the kind that heals others at my own loss. It contrasts well with my friend, who would most likely be some type of super villain hell bent on world domination.
With him in mind, I don't think society as we know it would survive a week.
