First day of really working on the IOP

So today I started working on the IOP. I rented the book Pablo Neruda a passion for life by Adam Feinstein. I got to page 30 or so and so far am really liking it. Neruda led a very interesting life and there are lots of things that I would have never learned if I just stuck to working with the internet. I think I might stop reading it though because I have found all the information about his love life and his childhood that I need in order to analyze one of the poems.

When reading this book it mentioned poem 20, which happens to be one of our poems, and how he wrote it for his beloved Terusa. It also gave me lots of details about his and Terusa's relationship. This led me to decide that I am going to analyze poem 20 through Neruda's personal life with Terusa.

Since I decided what I was going to do with the poem I started to analyze it since I never payed much attention to it when we did it in class. I noticed a plethera of things about it, for instance that once you know what it is about/who he is writing it for the meaning to the poem becomes much clearer.

One thing that I am having trouble with is how I am going to present it. I want to do it in a creative and effective way and have it be interesting but I'm not sure if I can do that.

Well this is all I have to say for my first day. Thanks.
