The Traditional Research Paper is Best

This type of idea is not the best to have because not every research paper has to be traditional.

"Although traditional research papers undoubtedly address the
problem of how to evaluate and integrate sources, a contemporary
first-year college writing student will probably be sensitive to her
limitations as a single writer"

For example for this unit, most of us are writing research papers on a website which is not traditional. Sometimes traditional papers can be subjectively "worse" or not as effective as some nontraditional research papers.

"Leave yourself out of your writing is a belief that must die." I chose this quote because it originally made me laugh. After thinking about what he meant in this sentence, this idea should die. Putting yourself into your writing not only allow you to bring new ideas to the table, you are not confined in a box. Writing should be free flowing and have no rules that prohibits creativity.

One of my favorite comfort food is home made fried rice. This love for rice has been prevalent in my life from an early age. With my food allergies, the variety of food that I could try was limited. When I first knew I had allergies to various foods, I was put on a strict rice and chicken diet. No seasoning, no spice, just plain rice and chicken. I soon realized my love for rice, just because of the variety of dishes that you can make out of it, which is fried rice. You may be asking yourself, how do you make fried rice with no eggs? Simple, don't put eggs in the dish, you fry the rice in extra virgin olive oil. I also do love to add bell peppers, onions, and hot sauce in my rice to add flavor.

Stimuli

When reading, I am typically digest textbooks, articles, or essays. Reading is a time to stimulate my brain in a way that I don't do often. With challenging my attention span, I am able to train myself to be able to focus longer, and learn stuff while doing it!

On the Vindette app on my MacBook, I came across an article talking about an event that has already passed. Although I have not gone to this event myself due to the homework load, I thought this event would be very beneficial. This event tries to break stigma in mental health struggles and student wellness.

Genres or texts that individuals produce can shape how society views and responds to certain events or ideas. To be mindful how certain texts and ideas come across is incredibly important for society around you.
