So, as I went about writing my paper, I at first started very very slow. I often times cursed and said "Why did I choose this topic!" and such things. However, as time went on and my paper lengthened, I began to enjoy it. And now I think it is one of my favorite papers I've ever written because of my topic on leadership, which I will mention was more complicated than my wildest dreams as it seemed pretty straight forward.
Anyone else have this kind of thing happen to them? Start off hating yourself and your choice and end up loving it?
Or maybe im just weird... *shrug*

Yeah I felt similar when I was writting mine. I don't know if this is my best paper, but it certainly was my favorit to write
ReplyDeleteWriting a non-technical paper for the first time in a while definitely caused me to start pretty slow. By the time I finished the paper however, I think I was able to cover my topic as I set out to do. The crazy part was when I showed my paper to my roommate and he actually came away from reading it with a better understanding of the subject. I guess that was the point, so mission accomplished!
ReplyDeleteAnd I am not sure about loving my topic by the end, but I now have a better perspective of my topic.
In truth, I feel the opposite. I really started hating my topic about midway through the paper, and it's certainly nowhere near my best work. Reading science fiction, I love. However, writing about the technology in science fiction works was to me somewhat tedious. I suppose I should have picked a philosophical or literary topic rather than technical one.
