Research Can be Fun
Research means stepping outside of your own head to join the exciting world of outside knowledge. Research can be the most exciting or dreadful part of an essay. When I think of the word research, my experience in high school with our big research essays come to mind. Research is note cards, organization, and endless amounts of sources.
In high school, we had to do at least one large research paper a year. I remember those times being extremely stressed or proud because I either put in the work necessary to make write a well-crafted essay or I blew it off until the last minute and had to work my butt off to finish it. My favorite part was always do research because it was exciting to get to learn about things I am interested in. It was exciting to have free reign on what I studied and wrote about.
My experience with research is always something I look forward to. I look forward to being a student to these strangers who know significantly more than I do in fields of study I am interested in. I am excited to be humbled by these people’s work. I am dreading the length as most of us are because sometimes I feel like I insert a lot of filler due to length. It is going to be difficult to be challenged to write all things to be grade “A” quality.
