Research For My Make

My research for the imake has been pretty stressful and hard to pull together. When Dr. Reitmeyer first told us we'd be researching our make, I was really confused because how was I suppose to research a bathroom decoration made out of wood and mason jars. I was stuck for a really long time and am still struggling a bit with it. After talking in class about the research process it made a little more sense. What I understood from Dr. Reitmeyer was to dig deeper into my project and look at its origin or facts about the material. I started researching different ways of decorating and what drives people to decorate or why they want a change. This is very different compared to the other kinds of research I've done for school. A huge research paper I had to do my senior year in high school was about the Illluminati and the way I researched was completely different and easier. It was a lot simpler to find information directly on the Illuminati and easier to go into a library and find a book on it then it was to find information regarding mason jars and bathroom decor for my make. Another difference was the attitude I had toward these projects. For my huge research paper, I was dreading it and thought it was too much and was sick of it, but for my make research, I'm really excited to learn new background about my project and am eager to finish it. The main similarity was that for either project, I had to do research or else I wouldn't be able to finish it.
