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!

  1. The biggest problem that I am having is my intro paragraph as well. I've decided that I am going to just write my paper and then come back to the intor when I am done. Maybe you could do the same thing too, I find that it helps.

  2. I wrote my intro paragraph after I finished everything else. I think it's easier that way!
