Something you love... 75 words
Look back at your name plate on the wall. What did you write as the one thing you love and can always talk about?
TELL ME ALL ABOUT IT right now.
For example, I wrote my son. Rather than me writing a generic paragraph about why I love my son (obviously), I might write about a funny thing he said yesterday or how he's starting t-ball this week and how we feel about that. In other words, write about your topic currently and descriptively, rather than as an overview of why it's awesome. This is the one topic you know all about. Explain it to me.

Anticipation Guide
“The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.” Children eventually turn out much like their parents. Even long after someone comes to a new country, they still maintain the same cultural values as when they left. Everyone has one or two particular talents that set them apart, and that is what makes them unique and individual. Parents are always proud of their children, even if they fail. Children do not always appreciate the value of their parents’ wisdom and advice.
