What Do I Know About Reseach?

With my teacher last semester I had to do quite a bit of researching. We had to write four papers; the last one being at least 15 pages! So I got quite a bit of practice using different research tools around the library and online resources. During high school, I also had to complete a paper for my senior project about the career I choose to job shadow. Needless to say, I did quite a bit of researching online for that paper too. I think I'm a whole lot better at doing research papers than I am at creative papers because I can work a whole lot better arranging cold, hard facts than my own ideas. This is why I'd choose to do a research paper any day over having to do a creative one, like the obituary I had to complete last semester. Hopefully, this semester we won't have to do creative writing, although, I doubt we will because why would this course be writing and research if it wasn't all about research.
