This weekend, I had more luck for writing than in the school lab. For some reason, writing at home helps me generate more ideas than writing at school. I am able to clear my head of all other subjects, and focus on my english assignment. I was able to narrow down my thesis into "Genetically engineered foods pose health risks to both humans and the environment in which they live." It is not complete yet, but I am glad that I eliminated the "pose health risks to both humans and animals..." because I would have to focus on both health risks to humans and health risks to animals, which would be too much for me to do. The topic I chose is a very hard one because there is a vast amount of sources that I can choose, and choosing the right ones takes up a lot of time. However, I still enjoy my topic because I am intrigued by public health and safety and how industry in America can be deceptive.
As I continue to write and polish the body of the paper, I am finding more and more ideas to write about. I even started to gather information from my Biology textbook. I was excited when I got the idea of looking up "genetically modified foods" in the index, and there were two pages on my topic! Obtaining information from my textbook assures me true facts, and I was happy that I could use it to my advantage in another class besides english. It's neat how three classes are associated with my paper- English, World History, and Biology.
I worked a total of 150 minutes:
2 Nights I worked on my detailed outline
2 Nights I worked on writing my paper
