So the last time I came here looking for a topic to write about, I got a really good suggestion from one of you guys, and got an A on it. So I was hoping to strike gold again and I need you guys to help me pick out a subject I can use for my photo essay for my photojournalism class.

It's a level 300 college class by the way, and I have 4-5 weeks to do the assignment in. It CAN'T be a single event or photo shoot. It has to be a subject that's socially relevant and worthy of all the time I could spend on it. The photo essay should also tell a story.

*it has to be interesting and complex, so it can't be about my pet, boyfriend, or whatever
*has to have some human aspect to it, so i can't take pictures of random objects-- like litter in a park. i would have to find someone who is affected by the topic basically, although i can take pictures of objects.
*i have to be able to revisit the subject multiple times so it has to be within my area... I dorm an hour away from NYC so around that parameter. so it has to be really accessible for me.
* there has to be more than one angle to it.

What other people have done/ was shown in class:
Seton Hall Burn Victims
Marines coming home
Thai boys becoming temporary monks for a month
Street Car racing
Imminent Domain in Trailer Park {people are getting kicked out of their homes by the government}
Girls obsessed with beauty {tanning, waxing, etc.}
Illegal Immigrants

i'm fresh out of ideas so i figured that the lot of you are full of them. so please help me out.

i'm willing to buy a shirt and give the street points to whoever's topic that I and my teacher likes best! expect points sometime next week

Heyy everyone!

I'm looking for interesting political youtube videos... they don't even have to be limited to youtube... just anything that talks about politics. I kinda want to open my mind a bit about politics, so i figure that maybe this is a good way to start.

Thanx and have a wonderful day :DD

okk ... i usually go to you guys for advice... and i always wind up making the right one.. so i have another dilemma

i have one of those credit card gift cards that you can use on almost online vendor

and the trouble is i just came across this guy who has written up on two very compelling subjects:

http://supervert.com/

^on the right side you can see his two books that i was eyeing:

Necrophilia Variations

anndd

Extraterrestrial Sex Fetish

when you click on them you can read excerpts.

anyway, i really want your advice... they both cost $15.00 each but i can get them with free shipping.

i CAN get both... but i was all for buying cds or shirts or an art book or something.

so tell me what to do pleaseeee

THANK YOU!!

at first glance i thought

"aww... they're being friendly with each other."

and then i took a second gander,

"holy fuck! is that a mace in his hand!?!??!?! it's going down TONIGHT!"

haha.. nicee one mr. brian walline

hey everyone! i really can't think of anything to write about for my environmental science ... i just need to pick a current environmental issue to write about...

i know there's a shitload to write about ... like oil spills, alternative energies, katrina ... but my friend is doing katrina... and i don't know how long oil spills and biomass can hold my attention.

so basically... i just need a topic that will be interesting for me to research...

i was thinking about the ganges river (because you know... dead bodies are floating in it, and it's polluting the water) ... but i'm worried that i won't find enough info about it.

thanx...
