What do you think about when you hear research?- The first thing i think is oh god, ew. lol . Then i try to think of how or where i could find information about what i'm researching.


What are the steps in the research process?- Find information summerize it all together &final draft i guess.

  Discuss a research paper you did in the past. What were the positive and negative aspects of the experience? Describe  your final product.- One research paper i did was on Jupiter [lol] some positive things about it were that i was kind of interested in it space is really cool to me so that helped me stay focused, on task &interested which made it so i could actully finish. Some negative things about it were that it was frusterating because i hate trying to find information and put it all together into a project, i tend to procrastinate, like alot, so that doesn't help either.  I'm not really a big fan of work... &if i don't finish it in class ushally i don't nessasarily get it done because i don't think about it outside of school. My final product was pretty good i found a lot of information &put it together pretty good, i got like a B or something on it.

If i were to choose out of those animals listed i'd choose an alligator. Alot of my actions reflect my aggression towards things, revenge  for things in my past that have happened and such... i think. idekk.
