| Ideas for crazy essay topics
I've been going through the bluebook and it seems to be pretty good, but one thing that really annoys me is the essay prompts. Its all about 'finding yourself' and 'discovering who you really are' and what not.
Ill be honest with you, I'm 17 and though I have a pretty good idea of what I want to do in life, I have never travelled the philosophical lane to find my 'inner self'. If the topics are on world affairs or something where I can actually provide a couple facts to drone on I can write a pretty good essay.
Because of the time constraints, you can't exactly think about finding your 'true self' on the test day, so I was just wondering whether there are any good literary examples or anything else I can put in my essay to give it some fat.
