The good old Research Paper!
3May 2, 2014 by Edwin
Like all of us in the University I have to take ENGL110 because it is required, and of course with taking English that the was to come in the future, essays and if that was not bad enough we have to write a research paper that like most essays would not be a simply thing. All I could thing was ……
However knowing that there was nothing I could to do from preventing this I simply choose to start my paper, at first I wanted my topic to be related with crew since I am in the crew team and its something I was already knowledgeable about. This later turned into a more difficult task because I had to find major problem with the sport and of all the ones I found none of them seem to interest me. I felt like there was no hope and I was going to be stuck writing about a topic I did not want to look further into. Then one day in class…..
With this great news I decided to go with a topic that I was more familiar and more comfortable with, so I decided to go with immigration reform. This is where it got slightly difficult, immigration is such a big topic I would literally have to end up writing a entire book collection bigger than the Harry potter series if I where to try and solve Americas current immigration problem. Instead I focused it down more into the effects it has on immigrant student and go on from there….
I finally found all the resources I needed and have generated my outline and immediately started to work on my paper know if only I can get more sleep…

Hey Edwin!
i loved the way you started your blog! it grabbed my attention the minute i started reading it!
i loved your memes too! You changed your topic so many times, but i guess its all about perseverance. Your final topic is so interesting, that must have definitely helped make your essay a lot less painful to write! I kinda had the same problem you did, i dint completely change my topic, but mine was to vague. After i made it more specific, it was so much easier to write the paper, and im sure you agree. I love your topic!

Dear Edwin “Emoney” Zavala,
I thought that your memes were very funny! I loled and rofled many times. I thought that finding a problem and a solution with your first topic, the crew team, would be a challenge within itself. I think it was a great decision on your part to change your topic to something that is a prevalent problem in today’s society, especially in the states near the border between Mexico and the United States. With this topic, you are able to find an unlimited amount of resources and can write for days about it. Like you said, if you were to focus just on immigration in America alone, then you could end up writing a long series of novels, and no freshman in college would like to do that, unless your name is J.K. Rowling. I have to praise you again for narrowing down your topic. Best of luck on your essay and I hope you get an A+!
