Everyone's thinking it, I'm just saying it...analysis papers are boring!
Usually opinion based papers are a lot more exciting for me. I thought this paper went well though. Getting started was definitely a challenge. I wasn't a huge fan of having to go through and find an article that I like or thought I could analyze well. That was kind of a struggle. Once I began though, things went smoothly. I don't mind rhetorical anylsis papers too bad. I studied rhetoric a bunch in my senior year English class so usually it's not too hard to spot the tools being used.
On this paper, I tried to channel my focus on the analyzing. I felt like the whole time I was writing, that's what I was telling myself to pay attention to. Apparantely it's harder than I thought! When going in for conferences Chris said, "hey...you need more analysis." That surprised me since I felt like I was focusing on that the whole time. I realized the analysis part of the paper can sometimes be underestimated!
Specifics. Specifics. Specifics.
That's really something we should all focus on the whole time. In any paper.
The End
I found it hard to come up with an article to analyze too.
