Ozzie your blog is nice Im not sure why you put your question's part In your blog you didn't have to put it in there. Overall your blog was interesting.
Your Friend, Josh.D
Ozzie I think your blog is great. But you could have talked about the other themes in the story. Another thing I would like to tell you is that you should have expaned a litle bit more on your summary. When you talked about Nick Adams you should have talked about his age and how he hasn't come into contact with the real conflicts that modern human beings experiance in life. Other than that i really enjoyed you aesthetics. I liked your picture of scarface a lot. I didn't understand your video so much though. I enjoyed looking at your blog.
I like the video and you didn't need the questions but the scarface poster is a bit much.
Osmer, you really came through with the goods on this one. We're looking at all 5s on the rubric!
