After doing my first peer review I found that reading another persons writing helped me realize how I want my paper to look and how I want my readers to feel after reading my paper. I learned it is much harder to edit another students paper, merely because I’m not interested in the same things as my classmates, so it was a little difficult to get into some readings. I have to say that I actually do love writing though and this class really pushed me to my limit with that, I enjoy learning about new things and bringing awareness to causes that I believe are very important and need to be researched, even if they were already researched a million times, there is always a way to do it differently. I do enjoy editing also, I believe I enjoy editing my own paper more though because I see the mistakes that I made and I am able to fix them because others do. My research project has grown so much since the first day I started it, at first I was writing a 15 page paper about how the media effects a female college students body image. Even though my research question is still the same I am looking at it from a whole different perspective, I want to know how women look at other women because of media, specifically magazines because a magazine is what tells us who we need to look like and how we need to dress ourselves. So overall I am very excited about my research and am so ready to do my focus group with a group of female college students and really open their eyes to see that even though they be told by magazines they aren’t beautiful, I’m sure another girl if not all of them will think in some way that she is a beautiful girl.
