i supposed to write about a person, place, or event ( or combination of all 3) that is meaningful to you in some way. im so confused cuz i cannot think of any person place or event in my life that i could write about.
I was also hoping i see some examples maybe to jog my brain so that i could finally come up with something to write about.

I buy a lot of items from eBay and Amazon.com and sometimes the seller would give me a tracking number. The other day when I was home USPS supposedly left a notice for to pick up my item at the post office. I found out this information online. So I go to the post office show them the tracking number, they could not find my package. USPS took my information and said that they would call me. I checked my status online and it still says notice left. That was three days ago. So I called the USPS hot line and gave the them my number. They go to the post office which I already did. But if the notice is left why is it not at the post office? The information is not accurate. Why is that? Is there a way of cheating on confirmation numbers. Could somebody know someone from the post office and deliberately mislead people?

I have a "special relationship" with my teacher, who's 7 years older than me. She was my biology teacher in second year, then we formed some special bonding. We would go out regularly, and would have a fun time. Until, we did have sex. We still go out, now that I'm in my Senior year in HS and she's still a teacher in the High School Department. Problem is, I really don't know what's going to happen between us. She's engaged to somebody. But still, we hold hands, kiss, and would do sensual things. One thing that confuses me more is that we're not really in love, but why are we doing these things? Why would she still be with her fiance even though she spends a lot of time with me? And what is her REAL feeling towards me? Help!

I started school weeks ago taking all regular classes. My school offers AP and IB but I didn't think I would be ready. I took all Pre-AP classes in freshman year, but then I was homeschooled for sophmore year and took correspondence courses. I'm now back in public school and I didn't think I would be ready for AP, but my regular English class is SO BORING!!!! Its way too easy for me and I finish my work ahead of everyone. I don't know what to do though because school started two weeks ago and AP English had two summer reading books that I haven't read. I am a year ahead of grade level in English. I take senior English instead of junior English. So in my actual senior year I will be taking a college English class. So, my question is, is it better for me to have a High A in English regular, or to switch to AP and get mid-B's? I'm talking about how it applies to getting into college. Which is better for them? I have taken the PSAT and excelled on the English portion and did...

Hint: He did not remain silent.

No of anything?

Well I'm a high school senior and last year I got a 1600 on the SATs. Its average but I know I can do better. I did my research and most if not all regular decisions deadlines are early January. My question is that should i get prep for the October SAT (if i chose that one than i messed half the classes) or should i get prep for the November SAT or maybe even the December one can be considered. Thank you
