I am a junior this year and I want to do something to stand out from others on my application to look good. ANY ideas will help!
It does not have to be related to this, but I love horses/riding, taking pictures, art, and web design.

A good resource is sparknotes.com. They have lots of college prep advice, and a big section on writing applications.
I suggest you write on something you enjoy because I believe that it will reflect in your work and you will appear more knowledgeable. Perhaps have your application geared toward what you want to pursue in university... for example, you said you enjoy art so relate that somehow to art history or whatever discipline you think you want to take.
Gear it toward yourself, like if you have some individual expertise in any field, use it. If you take photographs, describe what they mean to you, but incorporate some universal themes. Go above and beyond what you think you're capable of. Give yourself TONS of time to write it, spend hours just jotting down ideas, see what kind of connections you can make. Enlist help of family/friends, etc. Interview someone who you admire. Read examples of applications but don't follow any set format, take examples you like from each and construct your own "perfect" application.
