We finally get a chance to actually pick what we as students want to do as students and not the teacher. I'm not saying that teachers choose bad assignments, but I think that the students have a lot of creativity and it also helps out when we do something that we actually like. So here we are, we're at the stage where we can finally pick our own research assignment.
I would like to write about something that interests me. The only problem with that, isn't that I have a lot of things that interest me and it's hard to narrow it down. But I can saw that I really like writing about myself. (Not to sound conceited or anything of that nature) But I feel that I can write a lot about myself because everything is about me.
With writing about my personal experiences i still have some things that I can't really answer at the time. Things like, where am I going to be in the matter of 6 years. Other things like, if I were to change the way I live life right now, what will my outlook on life be like. Even though I have these questions right now, a little later on I will have more questions that can eventually help me out on this research. I've written some things in my journals about my life, but nothing that was in much detail. I mean I don't think that I can make a whole assignment about my name. So as of right now, I don't that the journal is going to help me that much. (It might help me out in the future.
Basically, if I had to assign the research assignment right now I wouldn't be able to pick one. I mean i guess I'm on the right path with having to write something about my life. But we'll see what happens.

Alex,
Actually, your name is a suitable topic for research because there are so many different sources you can consult -- the people who named you and "name" databases (and possibly the big OED in the Writing Center because your name is classically derived). Just a thought, but if you're stuck, and you want to write about yourself, then that would be a possibility. Up to you.
