Second Dayy IOP

Today I googled more about Pablo Neruda to see if I could find anything new about him. I actually found less than what was in the book which kind of annoyed me because I wanted to learn more about his relationship with Terusa. I wish that there was a more thorough background on him online. I also did not want to use wikipedia.
After I googled him I started to brainstorm about how I am going to present the project. I hope that I can get it done in a cool way. I am planning on overpreparing, meaning doing more than ten minutes of speech over the weekend because when I get nervous in front of the class I tend to talk faster.
How I brainstormed ideas is by getting a blank, white piece of paper and then writing everything that pops into my mind down in pen. By doing this I think that I might do an art piece since I like doing art and it would be interesting to do for this poem. I think that I might do it in either charcoal or dark colored pencils to represent the night. I also want to give the work a circular composition because Neruda's pain doesn't end and neither do circles. I want to incorporate a heart in the picture somewhere but am not sure how.
