I answered this in my application form for an internship. I really put my heart into it, so I feel like sharing it.
Personally, I'd like to believe the
prediction is true. I think our characteristic destructiveness as humans has
wrecked as much as it possible could and I feel we need a fresh start- so the
end will only be the beginning.
What would I do in these remaining 7 months? Predictably "live off the edge", "do all those things I haven't had the guts to to up until now", "things I've always been too lazy to do but now must!", along with "things I was planning to do anyway".
On every alternate day, I would tell a new lie, and tell a new truth.
I would introduce myself with a different name every day.

I would stuff my shirt with a pillow to appear pregnant and so I can gauge the
reactions of my fellow travelers on the Delhi Metro.
I would get myself unwell with a possibly life threatening disease and avoid all modern medicines using natural remedies instead to investigate why their usage is considered so iffy.
I would dress provocatively and leave my house late at night (albeit with a pepper spray) to see what really goes wrong and how.
I would impersonate as many officials and persons in positions of authority in order to see just how much corruption and deceit I am able to get away with to try and justify or nullify my disillusionment with society.
I would try and gather as many people as I could so I can tell them my views on niceties, small talk and façades and stress the importance of ceasing their existence.
I would document my day-to-day existence on an easily detectable online portal as I believe in technology and have faith and hope in its survival and even in an illusive, unidentified geek sitting somewhere in the most advanced part of our world who would manage to evade the Earth's implosion and survive. I would hope my documentation would make for good reading for him or her.
I would try and make the number of times "him or her" is said as close to the number of times "her and him" is said.
If I am to go, I want to go knowing I got as much honesty as I possibly could out of myself, those around me, and the world at large.
