When all was said and done I still wanted to keep writing and researching. I'm glad Sister Steadman allowed us to choosing something that we were interested for our paper.
Sure, that paper killed me and I was stressing about it for weeks, but if I wasn't in school right now I could have kept researching. I believe I only scratched the surface of my topic. It was a fairly specific topic, yet there were still tons of articles that talked somewhat about the points that I was trying to make.
That was where a lot of my stress was coming from. I found so many good articles, that it was taking me forever to read through them all, narrow down the ones I would actually use and figure out how they would all flow together. Every article was so interesting.
I chose my specific topic about how early childhood exposure to music effects most aspects of growing up and life in general. I chose that topic, because I have very specific goals for a music company I want to open in the next few years and I wanted to see if my career goals and choices would be worth it. I was not disappointed. In fact, writing this paper has given me an even stronger desire to go through with establishing this company. One reason is because nobody, in any source that I read, talked about a business like the one I want to open. I figure the best career choices are pioneering something! Also, I found evidences of music helping kids that I had never even thought of before. Music helps us more than I imagined. It was just so fascinating to me. This just goes to show that if you take assignments seriously, you can learn a lot, but also help yourself out in the long run with other aspects of life besides just knowledge.
