First Paper

I thought my first paper sucked. I couldn't really get my point across and it was way not in order. I just kept jumping from topic to topic. I can't figure out how to analyze a paper and not just make a summary. I can't figure out how to go deeper and find the real meaning and it's kind of really bothering me. I thought meeting with you really helped. It was better than just having comments on a paper and then handed back to us because we could ask you questions and throw out ideas too. I didn't use my outline. I thought it was too confusing for me, but I've never liked doing things like that. I like just starting and seeing where I go, instead of planning it all out. It's probably more work that way, but it just is easier for me. I put off doing my paper and notecards so that way sucked because I was pushing the clock.
