As for looking good in glasses, find a pair that doesn't extent further than your face in a style that suit you. Many stores have glasses that come in tons of colors and styles. Also, if you find that you don't like wearing glasses, contacts work just as well.
If you don't want to look like a dork in glasses, make them look like sunglasses.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
