Brief Break from Composition

Usually, I like to compose during the weekend. This weekend, however, I am working on a persuasive research paper for my English Composition 121 course. My topic: UFOs. I originally was going to develop an argument that faith based initiatives should not be funded by the federal government. In the course of my research on that topic, I discovered that the organizations who receive funding are not publicly disclosed. So, I approached my teacher and expressed my issues in carrying out the research. She asked what other topics I think I should do and I jokingly said UFOs. Of course, being the wonderful teacher she is, she said do it. And here I am!!
