REFLECTION

I have really noticed lately that I have a hard time picking out topics for papers. I am not sure why I make this harder on myself. I usually feel like I will pick a topic that will be boring for other people to read about. Also, sometimes I feel one way about a certain topic, but there is not enough research or evidence to back it up, so I end up having problems writing about it. I wish that good topics would just come to me, but they just seem to evade me. When I am asked to come up with a topic on the spot, my mind suddenly becomes blank of any ideas. Another thing that I have a problem with is letting other people look over my papers. I know that their feedback might be very helpful to me, but I really do not like the idea of it. I do not even like having my boyfriend or sister read any of my papers. This is why it is so hard for me to be comfortable with other people in our class reading over my papers. I guess I may have a fear that my writing might not be good enough or something. Maybe one day I will get over it, because I know that it is something that really should not bother me.
