So to be honest at first I thought writing a blog dedicated to my research paper was a bit silly. I mean a journal okay, but an online blog who on earth would be interested in reading about my research paper? However, now that I know I have a few readers I almost feel inspired to keep everyone updated on my progress. I may even start my own personal blog and write about whatever, it seems like a great was of expression I completely understand bloggers now, how close-minded of me to think so little of blogging. Anyways I'm still on the perfect topic hunt. To be honest I think it is the whole thought of writing the paper that is hindering me from choosing a topic and cracking down on it. One of my biggest fears in the world is writing. Some people are terrified of public speaking, well I'm terrified of writing. I mean sure I can sit down here and write this blog, but when it comes to any kind of formal writing for a class I freak out. When I have to write a paper I feel like there is a weight on my chest, my mind goes completely black, and it is just the worst feeling in the world. I tell myself that I just need to take it all in baby steps, but I can't seem to get that overwhelming feeling to go away. I am thinking of doing some research on anxiety, more specifically its ties with the setting of school. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way about writing. As for what database I will use, I plan on starting out with EBSCO, because it is my favorite , and then possibly using the Psych database. I plan on doing this research for myself, but with the hope of also turning it into a topic. I feel it is something that affects me as well as interests me and I would like to know more about. I would like to know quite a bit more about in fact. So i really hope that researching this issue will turn out to be my coveted topic that i have been searching for as well as gain knowledge on a topic that seems to stunt my writing, like killing two birds with one stone. I am certain by now all of you who are reading this are sick of my indecisiveness, and for that I am sorry. I am just as fed up with myself as you are I promise. I am already behind and the actual writing process hasn't even begun yet. Ughhh again, WHY CAN'T I JUST DO THIS?! Someone knock some sense into me please !
