The final draft. This is the paper where it all counts. How do you get to the final draft? Well, first you do the research, of course. You type out your first draft, and then you make corrections. Boom! There's your final draft! But wait. It's not always that easy, is it? There are obstacles that could make the process more difficult, especially to those who halfway know what they're doing (i.e. me). I guess I could give a few examples of what I'm worried might impede me from writing a great final draft. For starters, one word: sources. The internet is so great, and I am glad it was invented. There is some great, reliable stuff on there. But along with the great, reliable stuff come bullshit. And we all know about bullshit; it's like half of the papers we turn in. But more seriously, sometimes it's hard to find credible sources on your topic. You find a lot of articles and blogs, you won't have ANY problem finding those, but how many of those are actually saying something... what's the word... true? Another thing I am concened about it reaching the final paper page requirements. However, I am doing great so far. Don't know how, but I am. I think a lot of students' worries when they write a paper is having enough information to fill up the page. At least that's one of my biggest worries.
Now, not all of it is hard. If it was, I may have had to drop the class. The easiest thing about writing my final paper is the actual argument part. I use a lot of my words and thoughts and ideas. Along with some research, of course. Also, now that I have properly learned how to do it, citing sources in the text is not bad either. I actually have never done it until I got to college. I know... it's hard to believe. But I went to Cordova, so it's kinda not.
I think I still have quite a bit of research to do in order to finish the paper. I mean, there are two more parts so... yeah.
