The struggle of research proposal writing

No one really talks about how much work Proposal writing is. This semester has been the most busy one I have had in all my years at USIU. Aside from tackling the numerous course units that I have, I had to struggle with writing my research proposal. The struggle began during the previous semester when my peers and I had to choose our supervisors. This was a choice of lecturers who welcomed us and helped us ease our way into university and those that are guiding us on how to finish strong and what the outside world looks like. Don't get me started on deciding what the research will entail. It was all fun and games until you landed the most strict lecturer as a supervisor. 

I really appreciate my lecturers and supervisors for doing a good job in guiding the students in choosing a viable research topic and beginning the writing process. Let me tell you, starting something is easy but finishing it is the real job. It came down to staring at my unfinished document day in and day out until the end of the semester. I salute all those students who have been able to finish their proposals and I will too.
