Correct Citing

I have a huge problem. I haven’t been taught how to cite in everyway possible. On Monday I turned in what I thought to be a completed research paper, but when I received my paper back with the corrections I was embarrassed to find out that I didn’t properly cite and that I had plagiarized in my paper.

Not only was I never completely taught how to make sure that I don’t plagiarized. But I turned in a paper that would’ve gotten kicked out of any college. One of the things that really bother me about this is that I should’ve known how to properly cite and rewrite correctly. I feel like I lack a skill that every high school student should have.

As this senior project expose my flaws I have the responsibility to make sure that I learn in everyway that I can. I am to grow for the better of the people around me and for myself. Learning how to properly cite will help me not get kicked out of college. I really need to get it together because I work hard when I do my work and for it to be easily shut down because it’s not legal makes me feel like I’m not good enough.

I can do nothing but make my paper so that’s what I have to do. I promised Mariana that I would have a completed research paper to her as soon as possible so that’s what’s next on my agenda
