How is it different than mere vegetarianism? What are the historical precedents of this dietary practice? When did it really catch fire in America (to where we even arrive at the BK Vegan Whopper)? What’s all the buzz about the restaurant Vegan Vampires in the Black Pearl section of the city?
So—going with the above. Let’s say you are a vegan. You could have a paragraph on how you came to the practice, combined with the research, creating thus a sort of “personal journalism” ala Joan Didion.
If you’re becoming a nurse, or just dig Biology or nutrition…
You ever wonder how your dog can eat mud and drink out of a puddle, but when you drink out a stream, even in Kisatchie National Forest and even after adding Wild Turkey as a degermer, it didn’t work out as well?
Well – a comparative breakdown of the digestive tracks of various mammals could be in order. For extra zest, try the multistomached cow or the eating habits of the sloth.
Again—if you keep it to dogs or cats, it could again be a combination of hard science and your own daily observations.

Frederic Henry’s perspective and attitude about war changes drastically in this story by Hemingway. How and why does Henry’s change happen? Write a reflective essay in which you explain Henry’s change in thinking about war and connect this to a personal experience where you underwent a significant change of perspective, how and why this change happened, and how this benefited your life.

Which kinds of memories does food have
the particular capacity to inscribe, and are
there other ways that food may be implicated
in a conscious or unconscious forgetting?
How are food-centered forms of memory—
conscious or unconscious, publicly validated
or privately concealed—linked to other medi-
ums for memory?
How does dietary change
become linked in complex, and perhaps con-
tradictory, ways to broader understandings
of change? Or how, alternatively, does real
or perceived resilience in foodways speak to
understandings of the present and imagin-
ings of the future through reference to a
mythic or historicized conception of past
eating?
Author Kavita Kane uses multiple methods of revising myths in her
books. Mythology is used as a huge canvas and a tool for women to
begin their voyage by interpreting and questioning the old texts to
portray the hidden strength and limitation of the female characters. In
particular, the characters that Kavita Kane focuses on are not the main
female protagonist but rather the ” voiceless” or ” hidden ”
marginalised characters, who are in control of the main narration
instead of just being pawns in the plot set in motion by men.
Mythology often poses this question ” how much you can escape
from the fate and how much do you succumb to it “.

Poem:
Kissing in Vietnamese
Ocean Vuong
My grandmother kisses
as if bombs are bursting in the backyard,
where mint and jasmine lace their perfumes
through the kitchen window,
as if somewhere, a body is falling apart
and flames are making their way back
through the intricacies of a young boy’s thigh,
as if to walk out the door, your torso
would dance from exit wounds.
When my grandmother kisses, there would be
no flashy smooching, no western music
of pursed lips, she kisses as if to breathe
you inside her, nose pressed to cheek
so that your scent is relearned
and your sweat pearls into drops of gold
inside her lungs, as if while she holds you
death also is clutching your wrist.
My grandmother kisses as if history
never ended, as if somewhere
a body is still
falling apart.
Who once confessed her fear of black men who passed by her on the street, and who on more than one occasion has uttered racial or ethnic stereotypes that made me cringe.
