4. If you could go back in time and be someone in history, who would you choose to be? Why?


If i could go back in time i would choose to be Charlie Chaplin. He was an original comic and will always be known for his silent clean humor. I would like to see what he went through growing up and all the struggles he had to face as he became famous. I would value my life more if i had gone through what he did. He lived in poverty for a long time and was ripped away from his mother at a young age. Also i would love to know how it feels to be famous and be loved by millions of people all over the world. To know how it feels like to have gone from having nothing to all of a sudden having everything and knowing everybody. Another reason for wanting to be him was because i found out he frequently went to stay over at Hearst castle. That place is beautiful and to stay there would be a dream come true and he was there. I love Charlie Chaplin and his beautiful silent movies that still make everybody crack up.
