__ASSIGNMENT #1: Original Sonnet__
My fish are my life and my happiness, I also have an octopus called Bree. They are the source of my dreams and no less, They are a treasured joy for me to see

The tantalizing colors and bubbles As they dance, a cascade of liveliness They twirl by, stealing all of my troubles, That I could affect by pure trifleness.

Oh, insanity, Why me, that you plague That I should be drawn by these colours bright! Oh why can’t injustice be drawn to the Hague?! But of course, its just me –very trite!



But how could the colours and bubbles keep me So helpless and spell-bound? –oh, that’s A.D.D.!

__ASSIGNMENT #2: Quotation Explication__


Juliet has just learned in Act 1 Scene 3 of William Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet, that she has had a marriage proposal made to her by one Paris, a wealthy, young, good-looking gentleman. If any other girl had been proposed to by such a gentleman, she would probably have jumped at the chance. A handsome, rich husband—what luck! Even though Juliet was not fond of the idea of marrying Paris, she decided to at least give Paris a chance for her mother’s sake. But she did tell Lady Capulet that although she would look. She would “no more deep endart [her] eye,” which emphasized the fact that Juliet is not really so interesting in Paris “Than [her mother’s] consent g[ave] strength to make it fly” (I.iii.97-99). This does say how Juliet is different from other girls simply by not wishing to be married as the rest of tem would, but it also proves a kind of stolidity and firmness, and a respect for her mother. She shows compassion, caring and the respect, and in addition to and because of these and her actions, it is revealed that she has a very strong character. Juliet is a solid enough character to //be// different, and strong enough to not mind it.

 * __ASSIGNMENT #4: Night Po__**

I sit and gaze by candle light, Out through my open window.

Flickers of shadow leaping from the sill, To dance across the ground below

Turning the silent world to an eerie light, The shadows in the moonlight coming alive

Twisting and flailing in a never ending dance, Out there in the moonlight, where darkness thrives:

Every day since the dawn of time, the universe creation, This anciet tribunal has happened;

A sacred song, words long lost and gone Is played every night, never lackened.

And so it shall be till the end of Eternity, when at last sun is sleeping, That secret dance will begin again, Untill the sun next day sends them fleeing.
