Dialogue

"Olivia, guess what I heard my parents say last night!" - Waverly

"What?" - Olivia

"I'll just start right at the beginning, I was pretty sure they were discussing my birthday, so I got my ear real close the the door, and first I heard my mom say..."

Mother:  "We only have a few month to decide..."

Father: " I know, I just want to make sure its the right decision."

Mother: "Either way, it's a good decision."

Father: "But, we got to decide on money, school/work time, and make sure we're prepared!"

Mother: "Well, if we do our first choice, it would be less costly, money and time wise, but the second option is what I want to do."

Father: "I know, but we don't always get to do what we want to do, dear..."

Mother: "But, its her birthday, and growing up I always imagined my daughters 5th birthday being a certain way, and I am just set on it, Michael."

Father: "I'll check at work to get the time off of work, and you talk to her school."

"So, I know were going somewhere and I figured we were gonna go visit my grandma, but I kept listening.. " - Waverly


Mother: "Oh my gosh, I am so excited. Where should we stay? I'll look online and decide where, okay?"

Father: "Well, you are the big planner in the family. I assume everything should be set and ready to go my midnight!"

Mother: "I might be more excited than Waverly will be when she finds out."

Father: "Why don't we tell her?"

Mother: "She's asleep, Michael!"

Father: "You haven't been hearing all the movement in her room?!"

Mother: "I must have been too excited! Waverly, come here, please."

"And, then they told me that we are going to WALT DISNEY WORLD during my birthday! I am so excited, Olivia!"

Test Prep

The statement "form follows function" has been brought up many a time in class and I still wasnt exactly sure how it applied to poetry.

These video is about architecture, not poetry but the way its defined still kinda could fall into poetry.

Test Prep.

I have a hard time figuring out how to measure a poem in feet. THIS website is rather informative.


This video is a fun way to learn about the IAMBIC PENTAMETER. 

I see a generation of change.

Who will stand up for anyone being brought down by a bully, who will help those in need and those who are struggling more than the rest of us.

Who will be there for someone with an listening ear, with no strings attached.

Who will come forward and be proud to be an American, and stand beside their fellow Americans regardless of their background, race, sexual orientation, religion, or size.

I see a generation of enlightenment.

Who will show generations before ours that hate isn't acceptable, under any circumstance. How a person is a person. A beating heart.


Who will prove that the change is coming. Gay's will marry. Women will control their bodies. and Our monies will be ours.

I see a generation of Acceptance.

Who will be part of the change. Proving that we are accepted and accepting. We love and will be loved. Regardless of flaws.

Flat and square, important for many
like the fresh air to a jogger.

Standing in line, waiting to get my name called at Disneyworld.
Hoping to end up at the castle Magic Kingdom
Or even the hat at Hollywood Studio
Thinking about the globe at Epcot
But, dreading getting placed at Animal Kingdom
But, it doesnt really matter because you're finally Cast Member.


Not many people get chosen to be a Cast Member
Even though there are 66,000 spots at Disneyworld
The park most wide-eyed is Animal Kingdom
Most people KNOW about is Magic Kingdom
The best place to get a bite to eat is in Epcot
And, then my park, my home, Hollywood Studio


I spend most of my time at Hollywood Studio
Working at Pizza Planet being a Cast Member
Wishing to be able to go off and play at Epcot
Still So excited to be at Disneyworld
Missing my best friend who is at Magic Kingdom
Going and seeing the animals on our free time at Animal Kingdom


I feel like I'm on a real safari at Animal Kingdom
Feeling Walt's spirit within my blood at Hollywood Studio
Feel the magic at Magic Kingdom
It's still unreal that I'm a Cast Member
Not many people get this opportunity at Disneyworld
And, here I am with my backyard being Epcot


I'm at my last visit to Epcot
Taking my last ride in the dinosaur times at Animal Kingdom
Already missing my home away from home, Disneyworld
Taking my final walk backstage Hollywood Studio
It's my last few days as a Cast Member
It's almost time to say goodbye to Magic Kingdom


We had a good run, but I'll be back to the Magic Kingdom
I'll once again take a stroll around the world in Epcot
I'll forever be a Cast Member
I'll miss Animal Kingdom
My home park will always be Hollywood Studio
I'll have a love that no one else gets for Disneyworld
