Finally Done...

Whew...  That was quite the experience.  Working and attempting to practically re-do an entire paper before it's due... Pretty much worked for 9 hours straight to get this paper finished.  I'm not quite sure I like the way some parts of it turned out... I'm going to be changing and adding a lot of things in this paper.  Especially the core part of it.  I had a lot of background information which I put into it and because of that I feel like I didn't focus enough on the Lithuanians in the Meat Packing Industry enough.  That's what I'm going to focus on next... After a break of about two days from any homework and such lol.

Ok. Well now I'm off to study for an exam I have tomorrow... Hooray...

Almost done...

Well thankfully I remembered most of my information so these 9 pages that I lost have quickly been made up.  But I'm not quite done yet...  AWESOME.   I am not very happy with the way this rough draft is turning out, but thank the lord that it's only a rough draft and not the final paper.  I am going to change a lot in my paper, especially the section on Lithuanians in the Meat Packing Industry.  That's the worst looking section I've ever seen...  Maybe because it's 2 o'clock in the A.M. and I was already running on practically 0 hours of sleep... Well, back to work after this short five minute break.  Gotta love college and the problems it brings you.

Soooooo...

So it's the night before the rough draft of the paper is due, and wouldn't you know it, all I had left to write was the conclusion and intro paragraphs.  But guess what?  My computer decided to die on me while I was writing the intro... So I lost virtually ALL of my paper that I hadn't saved...  I now have to rewrite 9 pages of my paper... WONDERFUL.......  Looks like I'm gonna be up all night...

First Draft.....

Wow.  That's all I can really say.  This is a little tougher than I thought it would be, but I'm trucking along.  So far I've written about Life in Lithuania before immigration, life in America, specifically Chicago, after immigration, and what was involved in the meat packing industry.  I'm hoping that once I finish writing about all of my different topics, which include those three, and specifically Lithuanians in the meat packing industry, that I will be able to write my intro, which is bugging the crap out of me.  That's where I'm having the most trouble writing.  Even though I know my thesis is kind of like the main theme in The Maya of Morganton which shows the difference in life of the Maya from their homeland and that of their life in America, I can't seem to form any words around it to write my intro... :(

O well, we'll see as time goes on if I have an epiphany.  Best of luck on everyone else's papers!
