Informative Essay Topics

Below will be an outline of multiple topics that I feel very fortunate enough to have knowledge about to convey in this informative essay.

Philosophy - I could write a view of philosophy from my readers on different authors over the time from the historic Socrates to the modern day philosophers like Kant, Mill, Sartre or Foucault. It'd be interesting to try and explain so many different aspects of such a diverse topic but may be a bit much for a 1000 word essay. This may also overlap too much with my personal essay so I'll probably skip over on this topic.

Cosmology - I've been reading and watching a lot of things as of late related to Space and the Universe so I would love to try and explain what I've learned personally. I would write about the extraordinary frozen methane lakes on Titan or the frozen water that clouds Enceladus. I could go further and do a bit on Black holes and their mystery but also expound on their seductive distortion of the laws of physics. I could explain how Nebulas are light years long, stretching out across the sky, acting as a massive forge producing stars for the galaxies. I could do a little write up on how our sun will burn out in the future and turn into this giant of a star then a nebula itself. I could write how  the Andromeda galaxy is on par for a collision course with the Milky Way and the billions of stars and planets in each of the galaxies will pass seamlessly through each other. This is probably one of the leading topics I'd love to write about.

Geopolitical Issues of China - This sounds extremely boring  but I found it interesting how China developed from this isolationist, Japanese occupied territory in the 40s to a modern day economic powerhouse. I read On China by Henry Kissinger a couple years ago and while I despise the man, he sure can write. Of course, I wouldn't write about the evolution of Chinese politics from their Heavenly Kingdom days but the interest in Mao Zhedong and Lin Biao and how they developed early China using policies such as the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution. Then after purging and stabilizing their inner policies, they let Nixon and Kissinger into the country and opened it up for such amazing opportunities that developed the country to owning 1.2 trillion USD of our debt. They also turned into this investing machine in third world countries as of late selling military equipment and economic equipment to African states and Pakistan. They also carved out their own little power sphere, akin to NATO, called Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) with the Russians. This would probably be the second most boring after the philosophy topic.

Middle Eastern Turmoils - As Syria is a hot topic, the Middle East would be something riveting to write about beginning from the 50s when Israel was formed through the Reagan-Era to funding  Iraq which ended up biting us in the ass later on in the future. We were involved in overthrowing Iran's democratically elected government which put it on the path to putting the Khomeini in charge as of today. We gave the chemical weapons to Hussein which he in turn used in the Iran-Iraq war which gave us a reason to invade...quite questionable if you ask me. Saudi Princes and Americans were involved with funding Al Qaeda in it's infancy and some kept supporting them up until 9/11. It's very interesting to see how American meddling caused these affairs but the Russians also had a hand through the Cold War and afterwards up until now (supporting the Assad Regime, etc) but in turn, we did support Mubarak in Egypt.

So, what do you think I should write about that won't put you (Mr. Lister) to sleep within the first 300 words?

Making Food

     Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day, so it's important for you to make breakfast for yourself when you wake up. One of the most common meals during this time is the classic eggs & bacon. I prefer over easy eggs that are cooked in bacon grease. To start off, you turn the stove top to medium heat then melt a sliver of butter in the pan. You throw in however many pieces of bacon you wish to consume onto the pan and let it sizzle until crisp. You flip after a minute or so to cook both sides evenly. After the bacon has the consistency you like, crack two eggs and put them in the pan still on medium heat. Let the egg whites become a solid white color from the translucent substance that came out of it. After the whites seem to be cooked and fluffy, flip them both over to cook the other side of the yolk. If you break the yolk on the flip - fear not! You can pop the other egg yolk with your spatula and make a hurried scrambled eggs out of your failure which will still work for breakfast. Assuming your flip goes off without a hitch, wait only 45 seconds to a minute then turn the heat off of the stove top. Scoop the eggs out of the pan and serve on a plate with a side of bacon. You can add condiments however you like, but I prefer pepper and hot sauce.
