It certainly looks like you did your research. The only suggestion I have: give it to someone for a grammar/spell check. I used to be a freshman composition teacher--and nothing annoys more, especially with the auto tools you can use in Word!

Aside from those few issues--a very informative read. Good luck!

lol, I knew you were going to ask that.

Just have someone look at it--there are some missing words--and some incomplete sentences. Read it out loud slowly and I'm sure you'll catch them! Do you have a language lab/writing center at your school? Usually someone there would look it over for you.

Unfortunately, I can't fix it for you!

Geez--that really makes me look like an *ss -- it's just that alot of students get away with having people "fix" their papers--and they never learn how to write on their own. I'm not saying you're doing that--just an old habit.
