To some of the other answerers: God, I hope you guys aren't like 40 or something. That would be mega creepy. It's not the best, but at least you aren't angling the camera above your head and making the duck face.
So yeah, it's decent. I love the shorts though! :) I have no idea why you purposely pulled up your shirt to show some of your stomach, but hey, whatever.
As for the pose......well all you're really doing is putting your hand on your hip. Plus I can't see your face so it does look kinda awkward..... You should show your face! You're probably very pretty :) This is just me and my honest opinion.
I love love LOVE your clothes and we are close in age so if people don't think im slutty amd I wear stuff like that you are definitly not a slut and yes it would make a good profile pic!:).
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.
