Where I'm at Right Now with My Paper

Currently I have about 8 pages.  It's all a big mess right now.  I need to figure out exactly how to do intext cites.  Right now it's a lot of what the researchers have said regarding my topic; not so much, of how I interpret what they say, yet. It's not in any kind of organization that makes much sense right now.  So once I keep reading through it and intrepreting what the resarchers are saying, I will try to organize it in a way that makes sense.  I feel like I have a lot of different researchers that are arguing the same point.  Is it bad to have too many researchers talking about my topic?  Once I make the time to sit down and work on the paper, I get into a groove and continue for longer than I had planned, it's just finding that time and motivation to do it. 

My Research

Preparing the 10 pages that is due tomorrow was pretty difficult for me.  I hate to see how I'm going to feel in a month when the complete 20 pages are due.  The research process for me is very overwhelming.  I find a lot of pages from books on google books or journals that I have simply googled and I read one exciting article after another, adding what I have read to my document and before I know it, I'm off track of my original topic.  While I was researching, I found myself tweaking my topic to fit the things I found interesting in my readings. 

Simply putting together the research paper itself I found overwhelming too.  It's been years since I had any class where I had to do such thing.  So I find myself trying to teach myself the basics.  If anyone knows of a place/person on campus I can meet with in regards to putting the research paper together and make it look presentable and who has a lot of time to help me with this, please let me know!

Center for Mental Health in Schools

Below is a web address for journal articles regarding the researcher I am reading about.  There are a ton of articles that would be useful for any topic regarding students emotions, creating safe schools, mental health and social services among schools.
