Well i quite like cleaning so i wont have that. I also love to cook so i wont bother there. I like to drive and hell you dont allways want company in that car. My lass is a masseuse by trade so im sorted there.

A personaly assistant would be wicked you could just delegate all the work of your job to them.

Maid - my children
Cook - have one at the office
Chauffeur - enjoy driving my car myself
Massage - my husband

So it has to be personal assistant.

I'd definately go with the masseuse. It's a proven fact that people who are relaxed live longer....

I would go with the Chauffeur, because I'm not old enough to drive.

Chaffeur...for about 3 more years. Until I have a non-probationary liscence.(WI laws don't let under 18 year olds drive with more than one young person or drive after 12 am. Not that I ever need to, anyway.) Then I want a maid...cleaning is the most evil thing EVER!

Chaffeur: For those long trips when my parents have been driving for hours and want to nap but can't because my brother and I can't drive and to get me to the library.

Maid: So I'm not always cleaning.

Cook: So my mom who is a good cook but doesn't like to doesn't have to.

Masseuse: For my dad after those 15-hour workdays

Personal assistant: Just to have with all the rest.

I'd want the personal assistant for all the school projects I have coming up this year.

I would take a masseuse. My hubby does all the other things quite well, already.

Personal Assistant-so I could always have someone who would follow me around and be there when I wanted to talk to them, not to mention someone who would carry around my hardcover LotR wherever I go.
Chaffeur-because I'm not old enough to drive. I'd make them take my personal assistant and I and my books all around the country.
Maid-I do not like cleaning at all, though I can usually get my sister to do it for me.
Cook-though my mom is a pretty good one already.
Masseuse-I don't really have time for massages, but it would be a nice treat for my guests.

I'm torn between cook and chauffeur because I can't drive, and I can't cook.

Oh well, chauffeur it is. I don't ever wanna have to drive.

I find the idea of a personal assistant rather annoying, some "yes Ma'am person hovering about, that I'd have to explain things to. I'd take one if they were invisible and could read my mind!

I'm beginning to reconsider. I think a chauffeur would be more useful for me because I'm 16 and I still haven't taken Drivers Ed, and it looks like I won't have the time to anytime soon. So, a chauffeur could take me to al of my acting jobs, drive me to school (to be rid of the yellow bus!), and so on and further.

I think I would take the masseuse. Our school doesn't have lockers and dragging those heavy backpacks around all day every day is hard on the back and shoulders.
