11 - The Research Paper as of Now

Alright, so the first two pages of the research paper are done. More or less. From what I understand, the first two pages are pretty much entirely our two page family story, which made for a really easy first two pages. I fixed up grammar errors and such in the story and copied it over. I tried to shorten it because it's actually 2.5 pages long, but I really like the entire story. I just turned the whole thing in and hope to get some teacher and peer review feedback on what I should remove to make the story shorter.

I don't know how this escaped my vision when looking over the story, but several people have informed me and now I finally see that the story screams the theme of hard work, so that is my topic of research now. What hard work entails and what the benefits can be. So now I need to study up and look for a bunch of good sources on hard work inside and outside the educational system and what sorts of outcomes that achieves. Basically, I need to put forth some hard work. Work, work, work... so much work! Though I hear a resent or working is a sign of pride. Oh well. I'm prideful and I know it.

But anyways, that's about it. I just need to study up on my topic and write more about it this weekend. I already have a decent thesis I think, laying out arguments I discussed with the librarians when brainstorming ideas. So thanks to the librarian, a lot of stress about topic choosing has been taken off my shoulders.
