I always wanted to be a member of the tonne in Europe and feel what it was like to have your whole day revolve around getting dressed for the evening. I'd also go way, way back to biblical times and learn all the real stories. As a child I wanted to be a southern belle and wear those gorgeous hoop skirt dresses, but my mom always pointed out that I would most likely be a chamber maid of some sort. Thanks mom.
