..topic..

During your Senior year at APU you must take a class: Senior Seminar. Many dread it and others dread it enough that they can't wait to take it (sooner it's taken, sooner it's over). I am in my last semester and put senior seminar off till my last semester. I have the most amazing professor who plays the guitar and reads poetry. He is a journalist and has been my favorite professor since January 2006. I am blessed to be in his class...but anyways..

Why do people dread it you ask? Well the big paper at the end. It ranges from 20-40 pages depending on your major. I am a lucky one..our paper is only 20 pages long. My paper will be 20 pages long, I am not an overachiever at this moment. 20 pages to some is small (sorry Gretchen I bet your thesis is like 9 million) but to others, it is torture.

This paper is suppose to be "the topic you always wanted to research but were never given the opportunity" Now please, don't let the things I am about to say scare you away..my dream topic is..serial killers.
What?! Why?! That is disgusting...why would you want to research them? I am fascinated in them. I have a sick fascination with Ted Bundy, Gary Ridway, Jeffrey Dahmer, and the list goes on. Why did they do what they did? What is the psychology of a serial killer? Did people see this coming?
I realized that I am not the only one...when asked about topics, the girl sitting next to me says "I want to know more about serial killers" Maybe this is my long lost twin...

Anyways, I will keep you updated on what my topic ends up being. It may end up being stages of grief/death, cancer, or serial killers. I seem to pick happy topics huh? Gosh..what is wrong with me :)
