Which color are you feeling?

Writing essays isn't really my thing and I'm feeling helpless/overwhelmed:

Use exercises 8 & 9 (p 69): add 1 extra argument that is your own

Writing essays isn't my fave but I can do so if I write about a familiar topic:

2. Is a highly competitive environment good in schools?

3. Should content on the Internet be more restricted?

I've got lots of opinions and am pretty good at writing them down:

4. Is killing a serial killer immoral?

5. 7. Do TV shows like “16 and Pregnant” promote teenage pregnancy?

6. Pick your own topic - but only if you can do it in less than 2 mins!
