The Art of Ramona: My dreams came true!!

My dreams came true!!

After a while of waiting to tell everyone of this amazing news, I have finally been given permission to tell everyone.

I am going to Orlando, Florida with Melissa. This includes... Universal Studios, Sea World, Aquatica, Islands of Adventure (Harry Potter World), and .... DISNEYWORLD!!

We are going for 12 days, two for travel. I am jumping up and down inside. It is a dream come true!!!

The story goes as follows...

Once upon a time there was a girl named Ramona who loved all things disney. She dreamed one day she too would live in a world of fairy tales and fantastical things. For her graduation gift she was granted a trip to disneyland from her parents. Now all she had to do was find someone to go along with her, for she did not want to wander around California alone, get raped and die, no she did not.

Twice upon a time there lived a girl named Melissa who was so caught up in the world of Harry Potter that she waited all night on her eleventh birthday for her letter of acceptance to Hogwarts. Sadly, this letter did not come. This caused a great cloud to loom over her the rest of her days. Until one sunny day, she was at her grandparents house when they surprised her with a trip to Harry Potter World. As she heard this, the heavens opened up and angels started singing in 10 part harmony. She was speachless, causing a look of sadness to cross her face. Her mother quicky clarifyied she was indeed happy about this. Now all she had to do was find someone to go with.

Thrice upon a time these two girls were taking a walk at Rocky Point Park, Melissa telling Ramona all about her amazing surprise vacation. Then Ramona said, too bad we couldnt combine the two trips together. Just then, ducks emerged out of the water, birds came flocking, and the sun shone brighter. What a brilliant idea. They skipped home in high spirits, ready to show this idea to thier parents/ grandparents.

That is the end of my tale. However, just the beginning of the adventures awaiting them on this once in a lifetime vacation.

Yes, I am very happy about that right now. But as if that wasnt enough, I just got an email from the Summer Animation Program with my acceptance!!! First an amazing trip, now being accepted to the animation program. How much better could my life get.

Feel free to write any thoughts or congrats to me... hahahha!

you're such a jerk, posting my humiliation on the internet for all to see! Only I'm allowed to humiliate myself.....

Anyways, I love your fairytale rendition of the chain of events. I dont even mention you. I'm super excited though, this is going to be absolutely amazing!!....if our hearts don't kill us from beating too hard, too fast, and too much in our excitement.

I'm so proud of you for getting into the animation program. But havent I been saying you would get in the whole time?

I tell you, I'm always right. Why is it you never believe me?

The Walrus and the Carpenter

The sun was shining on the sea,
Shining with all his might:
He did his very best to make
The billows smooth and bright--
And this was odd,
because it was
The middle of the night.

The moon was shining sulkily,
Because she thought the sun
Had got no business to be there
After the day was done--
"It's very rude of him," she said,
"To come and spoil the fun!"

The sea was wet as wet could be,
The sands were dry as dry.
You could not see a cloud, because
No cloud was in the sky:
No birds were flying overhead--
There were no birds to fly.

The Walrus and the Carpenter
Were walking close at hand;
They wept like anything to see
Such quantities of sand:
"If this were only cleared away,"
They said, "it would be grand!"

"If seven maids with seven mops
Swept it for half a year.
Do you suppose," the Walrus said,
"That they could get it clear?""I doubt it," said the Carpenter,
And shed a bitter tear.

"O Oysters, come and walk with us!
"The Walrus did beseech."
A pleasant walk, a pleasant talk,
Along the briny beach:
We cannot do with more than four,
To give a hand to each."

The eldest Oyster looked at him,
But never a word he said:
The eldest Oyster winked his eye,
And shook his heavy head--
Meaning to say he did not choose
To leave the oyster-bed.

But four young Oysters hurried up,
All eager for the treat:
Their coats were brushed, their faces washed,
Their shoes were clean and neat--
And this was odd, because, you know,
They hadn't any feet.

Four other Oysters followed them,
And yet another four;
And thick and fast they came at last,
And more, and more, and more--
All hopping through the frothy waves,
And scrambling to the shore.

The Walrus and the Carpenter
Walked on a mile or so,
And then they rested on a rock
Conveniently low:
And all the little Oysters stoodAnd waited in a row.

"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
Of cabbages--and kings--
And why the sea is boiling hot--
And whether pigs have wings."

"But wait a bit," the Oysters cried,
"Before we have our chat;
For some of us are out of breath,
And all of us are fat!"

"No hurry!" said the Carpenter.
They thanked him much for that.
"A loaf of bread," the Walrus said,
"Is what we chiefly need:
Pepper and vinegar besides
Are very good indeed--

Now if you're ready, Oysters dear,
We can begin to feed."
"But not on us!" the Oysters cried,
Turning a little blue.
"After such kindness, that would beA dismal thing to do!"
"The night is fine," the Walrus said.
"Do you admire the view?

"It was so kind of you to come!
And you are very nice!
"The Carpenter said nothing but
"Cut us another slice:
I wish you were not quite so deaf--
I've had to ask you twice!"

"It seems a shame," the Walrus said,
"To play them such a trick,
After we've brought them out so far,
And made them trot so quick!
"The Carpenter said nothing but
"The butter's spread too thick!"

"I weep for you," the Walrus said:
"I deeply sympathize."
With sobs and tears he sorted out
Those of the largest size,
Holding his pocket-handkerchief
Before his streaming eyes.

"O Oysters," said the Carpenter,
"You've had a pleasant run!
Shall we be trotting home again?'
But answer came there none--
And this was scarcely odd, because
They'd eaten every one.
