<p>Will it be regarded as a bad thing if i wrote my essay about a heavy metal band and how they inspired me? please don't laugh!</p>
<p>If this is your chosen topic, be careful to focus on yourself, and not the band. You’re presenting yourself, no one else. If the focus is on you, then an essay topic that shows who you are is good, whether someone else might consider it “weird” or not.</p>
