My final thesis statement......

After having my first thesis statement rejected, I was thinking of using another texts that discussed on issues that I was more familiar with. After searching through the texts that I had learned in the past 5 years, I decided on choosing the novel, "Sense and Sensibility". My first intuition was to write something on the positive side of the quality of sensibility because most of the readers seemed to think that sense was a better value and sensibility leaded someone to make irrational decisions. However, I faced some problems in justifying my points. So, I tried to look at another aspect which was on the character, Elinor. Besides being sensible, Elinor was not much of a chatterer, she often observe people and incidents that happened around her before making a statement or decision. Then it was like.."Bang! I got my thesis statement". My thesis statement was Elinor's silence is a mark of her self-restraint, trustworthiness, consideration of others and personal strengths. Throughout the process of forming my thesis statements, I had Jasmit to help me. She helped me to search for supporting statements to test out my thesis statement and restructured my thesis statement so that it was clearer. Thank you alot! Owe you big time!
