cleopatra

__ Cleopatra by Michelle Burke __ Have you ever wondered if you could ever be similar to a person that you think is so different from you? Well, that is what it is like with me and Cleopatra. We are so different, but in some ways Cleopatra and I are also a lot alike. I am similar to Cleopatra because we both have many siblings, and because we both enjoy pampering ourselves, but we are different because she was a queen and I’m just a normal girl. Cleopatra has many siblings, just like me. Her siblings were named Bernice, Ptolemy XIII, Arisnoe, and Ptolemy XIV. My siblings don’t have as extraordinary names as they did. My siblings are named Pat, Paul, and Madeline. I think I am a pretty good sister, and I bet Cleopatra was too. I’m sure we both get and got mad at our siblings, and one of Cleopatra’s brothers was found dead and poisoned and the other was found dead and drowned. We may have a lot of brothers and sisters, but we still have time to pamper ourselves. Cleopatra always used to try new makeup and hairstyles, and I try to do that too. Cleopatra used to also wear perfume made of all kinds of sweet smells, such as exotic flowers. I also like to wear perfume that smells nice. Cleopatra used to sooth her skin with fresh aloe leaves, but I use cream with aloe in it to sooth my skin. Lastly, Cleopatra used to like to bathe a lot, to relax herself, and I also like to do this too. All and all, Cleopatra and I are similar because we both like to pamper ourselves. Sure, Cleopatra and I may be similar, but we are also have a lot of differences too. Cleopatra grew up in a royal family, and she became a queen. That means we live totally different lives. I am growing up in a normal family, and I have like a zero percent chance of becoming a queen in my lifetime. Also, because of diplomatic advantages, she spoke eight different languages. I will probably only learn two languages in my life time, but the only reason why I would have to be because of school duties, not diplomatic ones. Lastly, she probably lived in a gorgeous palace with servants and everything. Unlike her, I live in a normal house, and sadly, with no servants. I am similar to Cleopatra because we both have many siblings, and we both enjoy pampering ourselves, but we are different because she was a queen and I’m just a normal girl. I now know you could be very similar to a person that might have lived thousands of years ago, and that you thought was so different from you. So, I guess we are all sort of similar in some ways.
