Brooke (1998)
“She set schedules for almost every waking moment and left nothing to chance. The plan was to enroll me in the Agnes Fodor School for Girls, a private school designed only for those born with silver spoons in their mouths. However, before I could be brought to the school for registration, Pamela wanted me to learn enough about poise, etiquette, and style to “fool any of the blue bloods.”
“Blue bloods,” she explained, “are those who are born into wealth and position, whose family lineage goes bac...k to the most respectable and important people in our social and political history. They are taught from day one how to behave and conduct themselves, and that is how I want you to appear, as well.”

I nodded, but I didn’t like it. I didn’t like becoming an instant blue blood.MoreLess
