Who am I?




While doing this assignment was a good and bad thing for me. The good outcome of this assignment was that I finally found my source! (*smiles* ) On the other hand , the bad thing is that I had a hard time finding out exact information about the author that wrote the article. (frowns). So I found my source on this website , its perfect and everything. Of course, the next step for me would be look around on the website and try finding a biography of the author , and other achievements of the person just because of the simple fact that she posted on the website . Well this website was a disadvantage because I found nothing about the author , just other information that I thought was irrelevant to me , not useful. So I decided to go on a deeper mission to find out about this anonymous person . I went to Yahoo , and Google because these search engines were always helpful with past researches and that I am very familiar with them. I found myself with another disadvantage these search engines were not useful with providing information that I was looking for. So as time went by , I was getting frustrated by the minute. At first, I wanted to give up and forget about the newfound source , the author , and even this blog assignment! But I changed my mind and decided to stay with it. I went back to the website where I had found the source in the beginning because I thought maybe I missed something. Well I did miss something on the website, no I did not find out exactly about the author , but the website itself had sort of provided clues about what type of person the author could be. I even took a further step in emailing one of the other authors on the website to find out if she knew anything about the unknown author. In the end I gave up researching about the author ,and started researching about the website. I just clicked around and read about the mission of what the website was trying to achieve and other interesting facts. I guess my advantages were that I found my source , and information that I could use as ethos to put in my paper. So now I am very happy….
