Writing, writing, more writing
I managed to get the proposal to 8 pages! Turned in the rough draft on Monday. I know the outline I had turned in earlier was 'not a proposal' so hopefully I fixed that problem. If I wrote another 8 pages of something that isn't actually a project proposal and I have to re-do the entire thing... my brain may self-destruct. This whole type of paper is very unfamiliar to me, which is why I'm glad I'm getting this practice. Being able to write a good proposal will be useful in a lot of my future endeavors.
I lengthened the paper by adding in a lot more background information and even began some of my research on the topic. Just hoping that this was actually what I was supposed to do. The problem was, I wasn't including enough information. We get the rough drafts back today, so hopefully the main bones of the paper I wrote are acceptable.
Speaking of proposals, I hear back from SOURCE this week concerning my electrochemistry project... waiting to hear back from people is the last painful leg of the proposal process, I think!
