Research Paper

I have to write a research paper for grammar and composition. I can't come up with a subject. I asked mama if I could do Star Wars but she said no. I have to figure it out very soon. They say to have a topic that interests you so I considered that. I considered doing my paper about an American Girl time period but I changed my mind. I'm considering doing apologetics. Mama suggested the Holocaust. She got that idea from what my reading is currently. I am reading Corrie ten Boom (she isn't Jewish actually) who lived during the Holocaust. It is a great book but very sad. Anyway, I don't really want to write about the Holocaust. If I was to write about something that I enjoy I could write about cardboard boxes. I love them! They are great for building things (lightsaber, boat, plane...). They also do say to pick a topic that will be helpful and interest my audience. I don't thing learning about cardboard boxes would be interesting and it would be hard to find things to learn about them. As you can see, I need some ideas.
