What's the first thing you did in Realm of Magic?

I had my sim seduce one of the mages so they'd turn them into a witch, traveled to Diagon Alley (I mean, "Caster's Alley"), and started a challenge to reach the maximum wizard level without ever casting a spell. Managed it! :D (I just constantly badgered the mages to teach my sim magic and potions, and did a lot of experimenting with the cauldron.) My sims' first spells were done AFTER hitting Virtuoso, when she was dueling the mages to prove her worth.
