Write a 3-pages essay.
Choose an everyday social phenomenon and "exoticize the familiar" by describing in careful, perceptive detail its aspects that you would otherwise take for granted. You must focus your essay on ONE specific phenomenon. Your phenomenon must be specific, e.g. "texting on dates" or "snacking habits in class" not general, e.g."the spread of technology" or "bad manners." Horace Miner's essay, "Body Ritual Among the Nacirema," provides some helpful and creative examples of how you might approach your essay. Focus on telling your reader what your phenomenon is, but don't presume yet to explain how or why it exists or occurs.
