Answer 1

I really am not sure what you are looking for....

since you are suppose to have fun with this project...I would go for the offbeat......

7 main events in life...wedding, birth,death,finishing school,getting a great job,moving to another place ,coming into money....
( less grand events..but could add grim humor......being arrested..(mug shot,fake a goofy arrest paper.....with some really stupid crime...put your thumb and finger print on the paper maybe add a finger nail file on the page)....... home burning to the ground..(could scorch the page with an iron..or burn the edges of the paper or pictures on the paper..to get the feel of fire .).....or getting hurt ( show a crash...find a picture of someone wrapped up head to toe in bandages...than get a piece of gauze and tape to your page..added touch put a little ketchup on it......maybe make something or find something that looks like part of a tooth to put on the page .....

you probably could find images on the net..print them off..and cut just the part you want...like on death (a comical approach) have a picture of inside of a church...than a picture of a coffin...and than have disgruntled and bored faces like family snap shots...than add a picture of an all out brawl (fight ) than on the "coming into money"......show a coffin...than make a will up stating your character getting the lion share and all the rest gets like a dollar...show mad faces..and your character smiling standing with scantly clap women in front of a sports car.....

three conflicts....man vs.nature....make a camping trip gone bad...snakes,bears,weather.....etc....man vs. self-man ...not sure what you meant....making a bad choice ....going from a mansion to a trailer park (like bankruptcy).....

I really don't know if that is what you were looking for or not....but I hope I gave you something you could use.....

best of luck with your project.......

perchance talk to your Grandma first and notice if she may be prepared to have you ever. if so talk to your mum and say that with each and all of the mess and upheaval you won't be in a position to focus to learn (once you're nonetheless in college) or which you're feeling you won't be able to deliver absolutely everyone around to your place so as that's is affecting your friendships. perchance the concept that issues are so undesirable you elect to leave will marvel your dad into reassessing his techniques. i think of it appears that evidently like he might have some matters so if conceivable get your mum to motivate him to communicate to somebody approximately his behaviour and keep in mind that for him to try this he's maximum possibly in some variety of inner misery and desires your love and help with a view to circulate on in existence from all this hoarding. perchance google the project: compulsive hoarding.
