Minnesota, here I come.


My biggest issue with interviews so far has been time. It’s a crazy, hectic time in the semester… all the teachers are trying to squeeze in one more test, one more essay, one more quiz/reading assignment/research project. All this is going on and I don’t know where to begin, let alone make appointments with people I hardly know to ask them personal questions regarding their sexuality. It’s a bit invasive. Not to mention I’m trying to get everything done ahead of time so I can pack for my trip to Minnesota, and I have to do my laundry!!! I have this research paper, and another one going on at the same time. Bah. But anyway, I decided to take advantage of the fact that Seth, my boyfriend, goes to a college that is .much. more liberal than Florida State. In fact, the gay/lesbian/bisexual community is pretty prominent there and they’re not afraid to let everyone know it. So I plan to interview some people that I know have strong opinions on the topic, in an environment that I know they’re not afraid to speak out in. I think this will greatly contrast the culture here and how the community is seen in our area and, more specifically, at our school.

Is everything in my paper relevant to my topic? If not, how can I improve it?
