English 113's first project

Hello today in English-113 Ms. Frailly went over our first assignment. We are to select a short story from a list that she provided us with and write an argumentative paper about how we interpreted the short story and support why we feel that way towards the story. Our first draft for this paper is due next Monday so i have some work to do. We also have to come up with a thesis statement along with our draft. I am a little worried about this assignment because i can honestly say that i have never written a paper like this and i am positive that this is going to be challenging because, i barely no where to begin.
Today after class once i reached my house i started looking over the list of short stories that were assigned to us and i started to mark out the ones that didn't interest me and reread the one's that did interest me. I have a few in mind that i would like to choose from but it's difficult because i am still not sure what i am looking for. I want to make sure that the short story that i do pick i will be able to create a strong thesis statement for it because, last semester i had a couple of weak thesis statements and i had to restart a few of my papers over and over agin and that barley gave me enough time to focus on the body of my papers. I just really want to do this assignment correct.
