I felt a little behind, because I have so many topics that I still want to explore before deciding on one. My initial interests are something having to do with Memphis famous restaurants, the history\/rise of Starbucks, and different Tel Aviv restaurants.<\/p>\n<p>I am spending my summer in Tel Aviv, so I think that would be very beneficial to me but since I don\u2019t speak Hebrew so finding sources would be harder and have only been there once before. I don&#8217;t think this topic will make the cut. I\u00a0would probably be more qualified to write about it after this summer.<\/p>\n<p>When pursuing my idea about making my project about Starbucks, I went to the most trustful source I could think of, starbucks.com. Starbucks is a very popular company, and I think that it would be interesting to write about their globalization, and progress since they first opened in 1971. When using the UT Library search engine, stout, I was able to find many EBooks about the company. I think this would be a good topic to pursue. If I do this, I can include sources about the history of coffee, and Starbuck&#8217;s effects of popularizing this drink.<\/p>\n<p>When doing research on certain Memphis foods, I thought of narrowing it down to either famous restaurants of just BBQ in general. I think that this topic would be very easy to find articles on reviews and about the different options of BBQ, and the history.<\/p>\n<p>I think that I am in a good place in regards to my research process. I have two good possible options that I think I would enjoy learning more about.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Due to being sick last week, I had a late start to my research.
