For Britton, one enduring dream since childhood that remains unfulfilled is to visit one of the Seven Wonders of the World. She reminisced, saying, “Well, let’s see. There are a few that I can remember from childhood. There’s one that I have still not accomplished, which was on my list in childhood, which was I wanted to be an archaeologist and I really wanted to visit the Egyptian pyramids. I have not done that yet, so I would put that on my list today. I also really wish I could surf. I really wish I could surf, but…I would be so bad. I’d be terrible. But gosh, that would be cool. If I could surf would be cool. A cool feeling.” Her aspirations highlight a longing for adventure and cultural experiences that many can relate to.
On the other hand, Kyle Allen, who takes on the role of Bradley “Brad” Ackerman in the film, presented a unique aspiration centered around a legendary actor. He humorously stated, “Behold.
