I found my topic!

Hey Lance,

How have you been buddy? Do you remember when I asked for your help last time about a research topic? Well, I chose mine and you’re going to like it. I was talking to Ian and since he’s in the army, I decided to research about the correlation of military veterans and poverty. I’ve seen and heard of many veterans out there who face this tragedies and I wanted to figure out why and maybe even possible solutions to this problem. I read about this guy name Gerard and his experience with research paper and he said that researching without knowing explicitly about a certain topic is better and I can’t agree more. If I don’t know much about a certain topic andI have to write a research paper on it, I feel like not knowing much would eliminate my bias much more than if I knew the topic. So to get myself started with the research I had to ask myself a question. A question that would really guide me through this research and I came up with, “Why are so many military veterans becoming homeless and facing poverty once they return from serving the country?” I know it’s a very simple question but I feel like it’s a strong one. With this as my guidelines, I’ll be researching through the web and I want to find out more about PTSD that veterans face because this may be one of the problems that leads them into poverty.

Help in Need!

Hey Lance,

I haven’t talked to you for a while. I’m currently in my room thinking of my next research paper and I need your help buddy. The topic has to be exigent and I definitely don’t want to be bored writing a long paper on it. I have thought about what I was going to write about but I just can’t come to think of a good one. I was thinking maybe we can brainstorm and think of things we have done and things that have happened to us and relate to it so I can be enthusiastic and passionate about this essay. You need to hurry up to college buddy so you can experience writing 6 page papers. If you thought writing a 2 page essay on a book was hard, you’ll be surprised because I wrote a 5 page paper on a little memo book with expenses on it. It’s a bit of work but it feels great when you get it done and see a good grade. Anyways, I need you to start thinking of some ideas so I can layout my paper because I’m trying to start early so I don’t procrastinate the night before. Like I said, I prefer some topic that we have experienced so writing this paper doesn’t get boring. Thanks buddy.
