I thought this reading was informative and organized well. I liked how the main rules to writing a thesis statement were layed out in bullet points. It will be good to go back to when finalizing my paper. However, for the most part, what the article said, I already knew. It wasn't an especially suprising reading. After years and years of messing up or forgeting thesis statements, I have finally gotten the hang of writing them. They tend to be a little difficult to write, but I definetly understand what need to be included and not included in one now. I will still be sure to go back to the reading and double check myself though. I should never be too overconfident. In addition, I really appreciated the comment in the reading that said that if your paper is not going in the direction it is suppose to, "don't hesitate to revise your thesis". I tend to do this a lot. It was reassuring to read that it is perfectly okay to do just that.
