Research

August 16, 2008

I have never really been one to do a lot of research, even if i’ve had to write a research paper in the past. Normally i’ve waited until the last two or three days until the paper has been due and just spent a lot of time on google, and then take it from there. Now that i have actually been researching, i realize what a moron i have been in the past. Basically my old strategy allowed me to have fun for as much time as possible before forcing myself to endure two or three days of intense hard work, which usually produces a rushed, poor piece of writing. Now i am actually getting a sense of how my paper is going to develop weeks before it is going to be written. I feel like my dislike of libraries actually came from a dislike of wanting to do research in general. Being made to utilize the library was possibly one of the greatest things that ever could have happened to my work ethic.
