Thesis, What's that?

19 April 2011

THESIS?! What's that? Who needs one of those? How important is a thesis to a paper, really?
A thesis is so direct and sets out for a specific destination. I'm more of a journey girl, fill up the tank with gas, forget the map, and drive, see where you end up! A thesis is that annoying parent telling you to turn down a certain street because that's how they would go, but no one appreciates that advice, it's to controlling. A thesis is a controlling boyfriend, the guy who looks pretty until he opens his mouth. I hate thesis because they're too controlling, to picking, to general, and to specific. I understand the thesis is suppose to be the guide throughout the paper, however as a writer it's a stop sign. It tells you what you can and cannot write. It tells you what is worthy and unworthy to be in that paper. A thesis is a snob, who believes that it's a part of an elite group and has the right to deny access to an idea. I write this out of bitter, hatred, and fear. Bitter because I don't know what my thesis truly is or if its worthy and states what I need to to say. Hatred because I loath writing and thesis' are the backbone of any written text. And it would be unfair of me to hate the product and not the source! And finally, fear, I fear that my paper will not follow my thesis or that my thesis will not be strong enough to lead a paper.

Love,
Arguing with a idea! Don't Judge!
