Topic 1: Does social media do more harm than good?
Social media is an integral part of our daily lives. The posts never stop and for most people it is their first go-to in the morning and the last thing before dropping off to sleep. We see what others are doing and feeling and follow them on the roller-coaster of their experiences with highs and lows, laughter and sadness. Disconnection is not an option. Does this make social media harmful as it potentially consumes ones time and thoughts or is it beneficial as we are in touch with the happenings of the world? In 300-500 words, tell us your thoughts on whether social media does more harm than good.
Topic 2: Does one need to graduate from high school to be successful?

Is a good education a requirement to finding a good job and being successful? Many jobs require that one has graduated from a post-secondary institution but can one make a name for oneself with limited education? In 300-500 words, tell us your thoughts on whether one needs to graduate from high school to be successful.
