Hehe...and my idol...whoop lol Well, I don't think I have an idol per se, it has changed. When I was younger it was this girl in my school who could sing SOOOOOO well and i just wanted to be just like her (cuz I sing too) and as I got older it became Alan Iverson (yeah...I loved basketball too...) and now? God knows...I only inspire to be myself, a unique induvidual.

Hey,
I think my idol would have to be Eleanor of Aquitaine. I absolutely adore her- what a powerful woman in a time where women weren't allowed to hold that much power. After her, I would say probably the twelfth century French Abbess Heloise (who is known as being the lover of the famous French theologian and philosopher, Peter Abelard) and Hildegard of Bingen, also an abbess, who wrote many books and gave advice to no less than 4 popes, 50 other abbots and abbesses, numerous counts, dukes, 15 archbishops and 30 bishops... the list goes on and on. She even gave advice to the Holy Roman Emperor Fredrick I (Barbarosa).
So, as you can tell from my dialogue, I am kind of a historical nut.
Bye for now, Eleanor
