So I printed off a copy and brought it to school with me every day. On my prep periods I would bring it out and read it over and over again. I have a pretty good memory, and I've done a few speeches at Toastmasters, so I think I have a good system down on how to memorize things. I learn a few lines at a time, and keep adding on. Then I re-wrote the poem out myself a couple times, the first time with assistance as needed, the second time without looking at my cheat sheet at all. And within about a week, I had it down.
And somewhere in the middle of grocery shopping, I proved to Nick that I could recite it by memory.
Have I mentioned that I love Christmas??
