Ever since I was little, I always loved talking to my family about their problems. I love being able to help people. I maybe young but I am very good at giving advice on Love life. I am very mature for my 14 years of age and I want to help people with their questions and problems. SO if you have a question, don't hesitate to ask because of my age

I am also a huge Band Geek/Color Guard person, and I love music and writing. So if you also have questions on those I could help you out!

I am struggling with the concept with iambic pantameter and it would be so wonderful if you could help me out?



Welcome to our “fun and homey” college
The place to further your currently miniscule intelligence
Get ready for time of self-defining independence!
Your future within stone’s throw; unyielding to damage
School, work, friends, family, a million deeds to manage
Prepared to succumb, yet striving for excellence
Once exhilarant; now left with dissipating ebullience
Corroding and hopeless, our spirits we need to ravish
With the weight of the world upon us, the stakes are high
“What career are you choosing? Quick! Decide!”
Sovereign pressures from everyone, everywhere oozing
Infinitely engrossed in outright stress
To an impenetrably distant beyond is where I’d fly
My life, I procure the obligation to repossess



Thank you! (link)
Iambic Pentameter uses 10 syllables per line. Shakespeare uses iambic pentameter.
"Welcome to our "fun and homey" college" is right, 10.
"The place to further your currently minuscule intelligence" This line has around 16 syllables.
"Get ready for time of self-defining independence" has around 14.
"Your future within stone's throw: unyielding to damage" has around 12
"School, work, friends, family, a million deeds to manage" has 10
"Prepared to succumb, yet striving for excellence" has 11, VERY CLOSE!
"Once exhilarant; now left with dissipating ebullience" has more than 10
"Corroding and hopeless, our spirits we need to ravish" more than 10
"With the weight of the world upon us, the stakes are high" more than 10
"What career are you choosing? Quick! Decide!" good
"Sovereign pressures from everyone, everywhere oozing" More than 10
"Infinitely engrossed on outright stress" good
"To an impenetrably distant beyond is where I'd fly." More than 10
"My life, I procure the obligation to repossess" More.

I hope this helped? Just remember Iambic Pentameter is 10 syllables, follows specific rhythm. etc. Good Luck :) just ask your teacher

Between you and Razhie, you explained this better than my teacher ever did, even when I asked for help! Thank you!
