Post 15 - Writing Doc 2

After doing more research on my chosen Doc 2 argument, I decided to change my topic and thesis statement.  I have a paper due for American History 2, so I'm writing my paper for that class.  I've been struggling for a topic that really interests me and I also had the same struggle for my first paper that I had to write for the same class.  I don't really like having so much freedom for my document topic.  It seems like having more areas to choose a topic from would be easier, but I don't find it to be so.  I definitely prefer being given a definitive topic, or a list of topics to choose from helps me to focus on the assignment better.  We were given a written essay as part of our midterm exam that we got to choose from a list of possible essay topics, and that helped me to get my thoughts around the paper.  I chose from the list, webbed the pertinent and relevant facts, and pulled it all together when I sat for the midterm.
