Picking a Research Topic

When our class was given the task of deciding on our topics for our final research paper, I knew that I wanted to do my paper on Frida Kahlo and her life. After watching the movie Frida for class, I was interested in diving more into the life of Frida. Her extremely unconventional life story peaked my curiosity and made me to want to research deeper into her life. While deciding on who I was going to research was easy, figuring out what aspect of her life I wanted to focus on was not nearly as simple. For me, developing the thesis for which I would develop my paper around was the most difficult part of starting my paper. Even when I thought I had a solid thesis, I would end up changing it completely, starting from scratch and starting anew. It would be after numerous changes and corrections that I would finally settle on writing about Frida’s celebrity status and her impact on numerous social movements.
