write, write, wrrrriiiiittteeeeee

So I have added in all of the edits that Emma gave me which were BEYOND helpful and I am so thankful for such a great peer review.

Next on my list is to go back through and add in some more quotes directly from my sources. This is my to-do for tomorrow.

And then the dreaded conclusion. I know we discussed this greatly on Monday, but every time I sit down to start on it, my brain hurts and I get confused and just stop.

Its already Wednesday. Monday will be here before I know it, but I am so glad I already had 16 pages done before the 2nd peer edit. (Sigh of relief) :)

Hope everyone is having a swell time with their writing!

I'm at 15 pages. My head hurts. My brain is drained.

I. must. do. 5. more. pages.

paper

just by going back through and editing and making things more detailed, etc. i have added another two pages to my paper and i am still not even done writing the rest of my body. i know that it still needs heavy editing, but i feel like the paper is becoming a better formed idea and argument.

i have been talking about the paper with some of my friends (you know intelligent conversation) and they all seem very interested to read it and many have encouraged me to try and get it published if i can. That would be very cool to do if i could.

just thoughts to think about. but first i have to FINISH the paper. hahah

10 page goal

well i have already fallen short on my 2 page per day goal for the next ten pages of my paper. I know i will get there, eventually, but as of right now, my mind cannot focus on it.

Maybe i can push some out tonight, AND get some edits done. goals goals goals.

hole

i went from a roll tide roll on my paper to a dead and enclosing hole. I am in a rut, hole, soemthing that i do not want to be in, and i am not happy. I have so much work to do on my paper and it is a bit overwhelming to me right now.

I know i need to just push something out to get it down but right now i just cant focus. is anyone else having this problem? is it just part of the process?

ON A ROLL TIDE ROLL!

I am on a roll with my paper and i have already worked (preliminarily) on two of my body paragraphs (they will more than likely expand at some point).

But I do know now that I need more sources to add into my paper throughout. I know that I am going to add in something about the current teen suicides that has been in the forefront of the news lately.

edited post

So upon beginning my editing process of kathleen's paper i realize that some places that i need to work in my own paper. i know that i need to hone in more on my ideas and focus on details and not try and be so broad. it would be better to be more detailed and expound upon that rather than be too broad and not really say anything and just confuse the reader. Also my transitions need some work. i know they are very sloppy right now in my field situation and if i do not clean those up in a timely manner the body transitions will be just as bad. Thesis. what is there to say? it needs work.
