Personal Narrative: My HCP Project

Decent Essays
The first step leads me into this new world is that I have to do research about my topic before and during the composition of my paper instead of just writing on my own. I had little experience of doing research. In wiring 39A, I learned how to write in detail in order persuade and engaging my audiences along. In wiring 39B, I had to use my imagination to finish a movie script about LA noir film. All the Academic English I have taken previously have nothing to do with research. Firstly, I was nervous when I try to do research for my HCP project. I remember the very first thing I did when I was writing the first step for HCP, I just Googled my topic “the background of cyberbullying” without any further thinking.

I have a pretty good support system thus far so I will lean on them if pushing myself on my own does not cut it.…

    I am someone who smiles Someone always telling jokes to make sure no one thinks something is wrong So no one suspects a thing when they see my smile I am someone who fixes the feelings of those whose hearts are shattering like pieces of glass I am someone who loves to dress up and wear makeup so no one sees how truly I am From the bags from staying up at night to the red from crying, both under the concealer Tears behind my eyeshadow-covered eyelids Cracks underneath my red lipstick And the pain within the mouth that contains whitened teeth…

    It may seem like writers research their topic during a long time before writing their stories, but that would not be true. “writers do not research a paper and then sit down to write”(21), writers are a messy complex type of people. Reseach papers are complicated and I did not actually like writing one especially after the amount of procrastination I did. The research in this course however, caused me to, if nothing else, learn of the problems in education and standardized tests. With my first research paper having to be a minimum of 7 pages, with at least five sources, at the very least now know how to research well…
