Me and my academic paper...

Hello everyone! Although the last few weeks were quite busy for me (exams, assignments, presentations etc. – I guess you know what I’m talking about!), I’ve finally found time to start working on my academic paper. Apart from my introduction and an approximate idea what the content will be like, I had almost nothing. In the days I tried to organize my sources – and I was more than successful! Thanks to our university’s online library, I could easily print out the three articles I need for my paper without having to go to the ‘real’ library and search for hours and hours for the magazines. The articles are quite long but easy to understand. So far, I’ve fully read two of them and excerpted the most useful parts. Concerning my online sources, I’ve skimmed through all of them but I still need to read them carefully in order to find out what I can use for my paper.  Reading my sources has definitely helped me to gain a better insight into my topic and to figure out what I can actually write about. I plan to start writing this weekend and to write at least 400 words so that I can enjoy the Christmas holidays without having to worry too much about my paper!

 

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you all enjoy the last few days of 2013 and find time to relax!
