Throughout my history of papers which consist of doing a lot of intensive research there is one thing that I fear...BOREDOM. Having to sit down in the library reading hundreds of books that make you want to scream at the top of your lungs is just plain awful. I can remember during my senior year of high school we had to write a 10-page research paper. We were given by the teacher a list of 25 research topics. There were 25 kids in my English class so the teacher went in alphabetical order and you had to pick a topic that no one else had. My last name begins with a B so I thought to myself, "awesome next class I get to pick something that actually sounds interesting." Well the next day I guess my body felt that it was necessary to be sick. When I returned to school a week later I went up to my teacher and asked her what was left well, lucky me I got to research the "No Child Left Behind" act, passed by Pres. Bush in 2001 and find out whether it was beneficial to our education system. As you could imagine I was not looking forward to this at all. I spent the next 2 weeks sleeping in the library, barely dulling the tip of my pencil with notes. So to sum it up the boredom factor will play a huge role in researching the topic I selected.
I think the first topic is a very good one. I will also be replying to an email you sent me yesterday...look for it soon.
