When mentioning a 5 to 8 page paper its usually scary for me to think of what given topics I can write so much about. I have to think of which topic is of best interest to me and what am I going to enjoy  writing about since its long paper. I make my self a small draft and write down what I can write about to make things more easier. This helps out a lot and by then things go more smoother and I’m more comfortable writing my paper. I would really enjoy though if the Research paper was a Broader topic, that way it would be more exciting to write about it.

In the beginning, there was the idea.

Being able to select a topic from so many, is a major difficulty I have come across while choosing a research topic. Putting time and effort into writing a well-researched paper, makes me want to make sure I pick a solid topic. I want to discover more about the topic and develop my writing techniques, thus having an interesting topic is important (makes it more fun). Also knowing the research topic has enough reference material to back up the topic I chose is another concern. Briefly reading about my topics on the internet and recalling some readings we received in class allows me to be more confident in narrowing down a topic. Everything has been explained about the assignment, the separate assignments for one paper gives us more time to understand each process. The annotated bibliography is what I really want to learn more about, because putting bibliographies together has always puzzled me.
