If you have one, please include a brief plan for your graduate research.
Pick something you find interesting - if you work on something solely because your advisor wants you to, it will be difficult to stay motivated.
Pick something your advisor finds interesting - if your advisor doesn't find it interesting he/she is unlikely to devote much time to your research. He/she will be even more motivated to help you if your project is on their critical path (although this has down sides too!).
Pick something the research community will find interesting -if you want to make yourself marketable.
Make sure it addresses a real problem
Remember that your topic will evolve as work on it
Pick something that is narrow enough that it can be done in a reasonable time frame
Have realistic expectations (i.e. Don't expect the Nobel Prize)
Don't worry that you will be stuck in this area for the rest of your career. It is very likely that you will be doing very different research after you graduate.

今天和盼盼去了卧佛寺。经过学院桥时看到离奥运会开幕还有110天,很是高兴。110天里,我想干好我应该干的,取得更大的进展,得到自己期盼的。
雨中的植物园很美,但我们直奔卧佛寺。中途只在蝴蝶兰温室棚里参观了1.5个小时,感觉里头相当的温暖。鞋子全湿了,裤腿小半截也是沾水的颜色。蝴蝶兰丛中,傣族姑娘小伙在表演,我们驻足观赏,一点也不吝啬我们的喝彩!
卧佛寺好大,祈祷能保佑我和我的家人朋友。许了愿,很虔诚地。
景色好美,心情好好。心愿,十月份左右,非常的期待。
