Research Paper

The research paper is the largest paper so far. The worst issue I’m having so far is getting quality information. With people being able to post anything on the internet it has become very tiring sifting through all mis-representated information. With being sick the last couple weeks it has been real hard to put the needed time into it. I have put all my paragraphs together and set up my paper. I plan to finish my paper within the next week. I am currently working on the completion of my work cited page and my in text citations. I have overcome a couple obstacles while writing the paper. One of the biggest was I didn’t save my paper and the power went out mid paper and the whole thing was lost. That was the biggest issue I have encountered so far. Other than that finding the credible websites has been the other biggest problem. It’s funny how people can just post a bunch of non-sense or opinionated information that only shows half the information. I have been trying to keep everything on track to make sure it’s done on time. Time is the biggest obstacle I think I have had to deal with. With everyday life and work and my current health issues having pneumonia it has caused a wrench to be thrown into my schedule. But hopefully after I get caught up with the homework I will be able to get this paper finished. The paper being five pages with five citations hasn’t been difficult to complete as the information I have found has been more tha n enough to get me started. The first draft is pretty rough as I’m just getting the information on paper then will re-arrange it. I have completed my scratch outline which has really helped me see what the actual organization of the paper will be. I found that breaking down my paper into segments helped me get it completed faster and with more detail. With the class now coming to a close and only two weeks left I find it harder and harder to stay focused. The semester has been very trying and challenging. I have learned so much in the class and trying to use it all on this paper. Hopefully it will meet the standard set as I have invested lots into it in regards to lost sleep that is. This paper to me has been more of a marathon that a sprint. Long drawn lots of re-writes and corrections have helped me get this paper almost done. The research paper has been a worthy challenge but with my eye set on getting it completed I set myself up for success and not failure.
