Not Another Research Paper!

Growing up I think research papers were my least favorite type of paper to write. I hated research papers, I felt like I couldn’t get into what I was writing, like Ballenger says, it seemed as if my papers were written by someone else. I mean you can’t really put your own opinion into a research paper because your opinion doesn’t matter, its all about facts. For example when I’m writing a regular paper, I feel more connected to it, its as if the words just poor right out of me and the paper takes no time for me to write because I can go on forever. But when it comes to research papers, I feel like they take forever for me to write and they just become so cumbersome to write. Yes it’s easy to find facts and place them into a paper, but research papers aren’t just pages full of facts. They also have to have some originality that YOU put into it, but it can’t sound like its you talking. It has to sound like the bland and boring research paper you were given to write. Yes in a way research paper’s are easy because its just bam, bam, bam and then your done, but I believe it’s hard when you write them as students out of high school used to fluffing up paper’s and telling personal stories that your teacher told you would make the paper better. I guess it all boils down to who was your teacher.
