Journal #3

For the paper that we have to write I am going to write about the stress that comes with being a fire fighter in Lawrence Twp. I have found three sources at the library that I think that i can use to help me write my paper, plus i have plenty of people that I can talk to about this topic. Since I know just about every fire fighter in the Lawrence Twp. area it will not be a problem for me to have actual interviews with people to talk about how they deal with stress or if they even have stress when comes to the job they do every day.

With the first three chapters we had to read we learned a lot about writing a paper. I didn't realize how much work actually went into writing a paper. I always thought that it was a lot easier just to look up on line everything I needed to know about a topic and never really thought about using an actual book. Even though using an actual book will take a lot longer to find information I think it will really help understand a topic a lot better.

I thought that the syllabus was a great way for showing us how much everything is worth in the class. Also, it let us know that it is a very bad idea to miss classes since it will kill your grade. The best feature I think of the entire syllabus is the schedule on the very last page. It tells you exactly when everything is due for the entire class. It also, shows you what you are doing every day in class for the entire semester.
