What should I write an essay about?

For my English class, I have to mimic any of the works we’ve read so far, and I’d like to write an essay mimicing the style of Stephanie Ericcson’s “The Ways We Lie).

http://www.memorial.ecasd.k12.wi.us/Departments/langarts/dnelson/12%20Ericsson%20The%20Ways%20We%20Lie%20Rev.%2012.05.pdf

It’s about the different lies we tell.

The teacher gave us an exaple, of someone who wrote an essay about “You Know You’re Cuban When” and he did really good. I wanted to do something similar, but I don’t want to copy him. So what should my essay be about? I was thinking of doing different kinds of abuses, like sexual, physchological, physical, but I don’t think I’m to strong.

Any ideas?

-Thanks

Why don’t you write about ambition and good intentions. eg I really want to get good grades, but my friend invites me to see a movie and my good intentions fizzle to nothing. I decide to tidy my room, but I find a good book on my floor and spend the rest of the day reading it. I want to study to be a doctor, but I don’t want to spend so long without a job, so I get a job at McDonald’s instead. You could talk about small intentions eg I will eat a healthy snack (apple) but cave in and eat a candy bar intstead. Then there are the bigger ones that are more important and can change the course of your life.

Write about Sexual Harrasment that happend to me when I was in College an asian guy was following me around and he wanted to touch me so I told him to go away. Just write about why a man harasses a woman at school or at a work place.

Wrire about something you that interests you or you are passionate about. This will give your essay depth and make it interesting. Be mindful of the criteria expressed by your teacher. Teachers want to know that they have taught you something which you have understood. Research your subject matter. I hope this helps.
