Can anybody suggest poems or songs or excerpts to memorize for me? Stuff I can find online, thanks.

How about simple baking recipes, stuff Ana can help with, no eggs

For my exams I'm memorising John Donne, which I like quite a lot, though it is, of course, quite old language. And with poems from the 17th century I personally always need the whole thing explained to me before I understand ti.

http://www.luminarium.org/sevenlit/donne/song.htm - Essentially talks about the fickleness of women, but I like it in how clever it is.

http://www.luminarium.org/sevenlit/donne/mourning.htm - A beautiful sweet love poem that is one of my favourites, if my significant other ever decides to go off on a trip of some sort and leave me behind, I demand they write me something equally as good. Or give me a (drawing) compass. Either way.
