Topic Ideas

So I basically haven't left my house in four days except to go to school and work on other school related items, eeeeek. I also haven't thought about anything else except hunger, kinematics, electricity, circuits, magnetism, equilibrium, integration, logarithims.. I could go on but I'll stop here, so these ideas for my Cause/Effect essay may be a little.. bad?

Here we go!

The cause and effect of..

1) Abstinence only teaching, in schools

2) Technology, that's always a good one

3) Fast Food... so tasty, so cheap, yet have you seen the nutrition facts on that stuff? :/

4) Social Norms - conformity, yeaaaah!

5) School - yeah it sounds a little elementary school-ish, but if you think about it, what effect does it actually have on us? We're put in this rigorous system that seems to ONLY focus on taking hard classes to getting good grades to getting into a good college to getting a good, well paying job. Where does happiness lie in there? Don't really see room for it. I love the example of: my mother went to Central Washington University, and is now the CFO/temporary CEO of Evergreen Hospital, and one of her extremely good high school friends who we see quite often, went to NYU and grad school @ Dartmouth University, and is barely able to keep a job in this economy. Huh, fancy that, eh?

Anywho, I had more ideas but right now the only thing I can think about is my AP Calculus test in about 8 hours... I really hope I get to sleep tonight..
