Dante's Inferno

I chose two do two videos for this assignment. My reasoning for this is because I felt as though, together, they perfectly portrayed Dante's feelings for the cause of his secret admiring, Beatrice Portinari. Although, Danted married Gemma, in which he was chosen to be with as a young boy, he possessed a deep love for Beatrice. He only saw Beatrice twice in his life, however he was heart-broken when he learned of her passing.

WHAT A BUNCH OF SQUARES!

I want you to take a brief intermission from this post, and check your closet. If your anything like me, upon opening your closet, you were greeted with the soothing site of colorful t-shirts, solid and simple sweaters, as well as neutral and or earth-toned outerwear items. However, being the trendy guy I pride myself in being, im almost ashamed to admit that I dont own a single piece of shadow plaid clothing. Frankly, it's embarassing. In case you dont know excatly what shadow plaid is, its a subtle plaid pattern of black, grey, and white, and also happens to be a fashiobn must. Now that you know, go out and buy in the highest quantity humanly possible.

DECISIONS...DECISIONS

I intend to compose a music CD for my Kite Runner project. I chose this project because I was able to almost isntantly apply numerous songs to the different scenarios throughtout the book, therefore this project should be fairly easy.
