The First Research Paper

This is the first time I do research paper in English. Yeah! It is a new challenge for me to overcome.
At the first time, I was lost in a huge of topics which I wanted to do: Disney, computer, environment and game. Finally I found out that one of my favorite game has an interesting news, it is recorded in the Guinness Book. I was interested in that topic, so I decided to do research about that.
My topic is about Tomb Raider, a famous game over the world. It was turned into movies and got a lot of success. Because of a game, so not many academic articles and writing about that, it becomes difficult for me to find the material from the academic database and library. However, I got an advantage that many forums on the Internet talked about Tomb Raider. Gaming newspapers and magazines did, too. So I started my work.
The problem is filtering the materials. Oh my god! It made me confused to choose the sources, which are believable or not. Even though, there are vast of amateur writing about that.
If you don't know about the game much, never do research about that. It is difficult for you to know what is true.
And the statics about the movies, it is given for members of the websites who has paid for that information. I was stuck there for a short time because I had to find the date and exact sources.
It was a challenge for me to do. Eventually, I finished it. Thanks God!

300





300 is a movie about the fight of Leonidas- King of Sparta and his 300 brave soldiers against thousands of Persian soldiers of King Xerxes. The movie was made based on a true story of Leonidas; Also it is included some fictitious details to be more interesting.
Story about Sparta was famous northern city of Greece Laconia plain in the ancient age. There was brave king Leonidas who ruled. With all the attitude of his country, he refused to be an allied country of Persia and declined war against Xerxes- King of Persia. The movie was made based on his name which was raised to heroic status as a result of the events in the Battle of Thermopylae.
The most interesting is the movie is the fight of Leonidas and his men. The scene is so fantastic with the audio and visual techniques. The backgrounds of the battlefield in the movies were stretched out of the eyes making the audiences feeling it a giant battle. This effect created a contrary between Spartan soldiers and a number of full-equipped soldiers of Persia. That is a great effect in making war-movies which Zack Snyder-the director of 300- is good at.

Entry for Mar-26

Choosing a topic is a little bit complicated for me because of a huge of topics that I have to make them more specific.
At first, I intend to do research about Disney, but it seems to be too general and hard. Now the topic for the research, I think it must be related to my future major in the university. That is computer engineering. A research about computer seems suitable to me, that makes me interested than others.
I am thinking about choosing a topic about video games or computer hardware. Two of them are interesting, but the topic about hardware is so hard with a huge technological vocabulary. At the end, I make a decision that the topic about video games is the best. ^^
Because there are not many shows and representations which are about games. But my advantages are abundant of information and examples on the Internet. Certainly that I have to filter them for the best sources and knowledge.
I tried to use Gale for searching for the paper. Yes, it is so great for me, there is a lot of things to read and refer from it.
Finally, doing the paper can help me in the future: I will have my experience in writing essays and other research papers, and I require for myself the information and knowledge for my major in the future. Besides that, that is the Composition. I like compositions. ^^!

Living in an apartment or house off campus.

Choosing a place to living is a problem for students at the beginning of the semester. Some students choose to live in the dormitory, the others want to live off campus. Choosing to live where also has its own advantages and disadvantages. I prefer living in the apartment or house off campus than living in the dormitory. These are some advantages of living off campus.

First, living in an apartment is cheaper because you can share with your friends the payment fee. Every apartment has two or more bedrooms, so it is suitable to share with two other students. The monthly fee you have to pay will be less than living in the dormitory with a fixed fee. The fee of dormitory is often more expensive than an apartment because you have paid all the living including: meals, living fee and safety fee.
The second thing is you will feel free to do everything you want when living in an apartment. You can learn how to handle your life such as: bills payment, buying furniture, cleaning and maintaining house. Once everything is managed, you feel be growing up and get more experiences. That is the best way for international students to be acquainted with American lifestyle. Even you can hold a party and invite your friends to the apartment without restriction of time.
Another advantage of living off campus is that students often feel more comfortable and more independent. We are often watched of the security unit when living in the dormitory because of the secure. The students who are old enough to do everything they want and they want to be respected by the society. So they want to be responsible to what they do and face with them. After all, they want to be more independent.
There are also some disadvantages for students to live in an apartment or house off campus. For example, they don't have enough experience to manage things happen to them such as: thief, safety, even managing the time between studying and relaxing. They are easy to be attracted by the bad lifestyles of drugs, drinking or sex. But living off campus also helps students to save money from the living fee, give experiences about life or make a more comfortable life. Moreover, it makes the students grow up for the future life.
