Research Rough Paper Draft

After finishing my draft, I have mixed feelings. First of all, I am happy that I finished the draft and all my other homework at three o'clock in the afternoon because I have the whole day to relax. I also feel pretty confident in my draft because most of my work came from my detailed outline. Because I spent quality time on the outline the draft was not as hard as I expected it to be. The concern about my draft is how good it actually is. I was reading the sample research paper that was posted online and comparing it to mine. Although mine is a draft, while reading it was kind of hard to compare. Since that was a final and mine is a draft, but I think after reading I might need to work on my draft again and tweak some details.

All in all, it was pretty easy to complete overall because my detailed outline helped me a lot. I was very lucky at the end of my draft when counting my sources that I used six different sources in my detailed outline so I did not need to add or fix anything. The hard part was knowing what to say. I can talk on and on about my topic, but it would be repetitive. I had to find an order in which would flow all my research and make a great paper. Also I found embedding my paraphrases and quotes in the paragraphs was difficult. I had trouble with the last assignment as well, so I knew I needed to focus on that. When receiving my feedback I need to focus on making sure my quotes and information is embedded and make sure my format is correct. Also look at the comments as usual and try to fix as much as I can.
