Undergraduate / FSU Admission Essay - the prompt tells me what to do but how to start? [3]

This is the prompt: For almost one hundred years, the Latin words, "Vires, Artes, Mores" have been the guiding philosophy behind Florida State University. Vires signifies strength of all kinds - moral, physical, and intellectual; Artes alludes to the beauty of intellectual pursuits as exemplified in skill, craft, or art; and Mores refers to character, custom, or tradition. Describe how one or more of the values embodied in these concepts are reflected in your life.

My name is Anna and I am applying to Florida State. I understand what the prompt is telling me what to do but i don't actually know how to start it. I am going to write about all three of them and try to pull it into the major I would like to study. The major that I am looking at is interior design. It is going to be hard but, if someone out there can give me some tips on how to start it then that would be great.

Research Papers / SENIOR RESEARCH PROJECT about Michael Jackson --HELP [12]

The requirements can be anything. I have started it but I just need some pointers. Here's what i have so far...

(Intro)Why did the world accept Michael Jackson after everything he did over the past years? He has gone through plastic surgery, hormone change, and make-up and fashion appearances. Michael Jackson has proven that only in American a black man can have so many plastic surgeries and is still famous. Over the last ten years Michael Jackson has been the main celebrity people actually pay attention to. Everyone has so many questions for him. For example; is he still the King of Pop? And what was going through his mind when he changed his skin color? Was he embarrassed? Looking back on his childhood, his addiction to plastic surgery, and his mental break-downs, might answer these question people ask.

(new para.)(Childhood)Michael Jackson is known as the best singing superstar at such an early age. Jackson was born on August 29, 1958 in Gary, Indiana. He was the seventh out of nine brothers and sisters. His childhood was very depressing because he was mentally and physically abused by his father. Joseph Walter who was Michaels' father made fun of his nose by calling him names and scaring him during the nights, by scrawling through his window and just scream so he won't leave his window open. Was this the first step to insanity? I wonder. (Not finish)

(new para.)(Life in Jackson 5)Michael grew up with talent and became the lead singer of his brothers group called, The Jackson Brothers, which they later changed the name to The Jackson 5, in 1964. The band toured in the Midwest for two years. They preformed usually in black clubs and in talent shows. The Jackson 5 was very popular in New York and Philly. Their first four singles "I Want you back," "ABC," "The Love You Save," and "I'll Be There" it became the number one hit in 1970 which was the first in pop history. During this period of time while Michael Jackson was in The Jackson 5, he was referred as the King of Pop. (I haven't finished this section).

(new para.)(Other talents)Michael Jackson was born as a cute African-American, a talented singer, and an overall normal human being. He had many fans growing up. Many people bought his albums and concert tickets. Except singing wasn't the only thing he was good at. In fact he was the scarecrow for the old movie The Wizard of Oz. Michael loved playing this part so much he didn't what the filming to end. During his time in acting he did a number of commercials. Pepsi hired Jackson as a spokesman and did a number of commercials for them. During a set he was told to walk down a flight of stairs while there would be fireworks going behind him. Michael did was he was told but he was coming down too fast and a firework it his hair on fire. This wasn't pretty at all, he got third degree burns. Plastic surgery was the only decision he had to make if he wanted to live. Following this he had another surgery on his nose so he could breathe properly.

(new para.)(Plastic surgery)Flashing back to the part about his father making fun of his nose is the first step to his addiction towards plastic surgery. Michael gets his nose slightly narrowed and his eyebrows shaped. Was this his only surgery? Surprisingly, No he actually had three nose jobs, and much more. He got permanent eyeliner tattooed around his eyes in 1985, cheek bones, and a fake chin implant. I believe that Jackson got so many surgeries was because, when he looked in the mirror he saw his father Joseph starring back at him and this is the one thing he didn't want to see. (Many more surgeries to talk about)

(new paragraph)(Relationship with his Kids)

(new paragraph)(His Charges)
