O.k. Make your topic procrastination. I do bellieve you have some background in the subject. Even though I'm joking, it is a good subject. We all do it at some point in our lives. I'm suppose to working a project for work right now, but I put it off to answer this question....

Take an interesting story from your own life (or someone else's) that you often tell people, and write it down.
You might also remember a favorite--or least favorite--childhood incident, or a story out of school, or a family story. Or write about an incident from your life that really bugs you.
If you need help lengthening the story to eight pages, either expand the details, or string two or three incidents together in a way that makes sense. For example, you might combine the time your brother spilled the milk with the story of your first date.

I have a great idea!! Write about a President who starts a war over vast oil supplies in a foreign nation only to realize later that those reserves only prolonged an inevitable disaster! He then hangs his head in shame for not pursuing an actual solution, but only a temporary fix that sates his greed. The final scene can show his daughters on the street trying to trade cart loads of cash for an apple.

Write about something that happened to you when you were younger. Change some of the names and some minor details, and you'll have eight pages in a snap. Just make sure your teacher won't figure out what you did.

First of all, why did you wait so long to start? Professors tell you the first day of class what is due during the entire course, you should have all ready been working on it.
Since I do not know what class it is for, ou could write about something memorable in your life.

Write about a sudden power outage in the whole world. They can't figure out what caused it, but all the power plants are crushed, by some weight. Write about what caused it, and how they fixed it.

Write about a science fiction.
Or write about a fantasy.
Or write about traveling on a ship at sea.
Perhaps you could write about the end of the world
Or write about an intresting week in your life.
Or write about a dream
Think about something and write about it!!!

Start with a character who wants something. What is it that he or she wants? It can be to learn to dance, or to move, or to see his father again. He (or she) goes in pursuit of what he wants, but obstacles get in the way -- a situation, an event, a person. Eventually he obtains what he wants, or -- decides it isn't what he wanted after all and is happy with something else. the end.

Write about something you like so you'll have fun writing it. If its something you like it'll be easier to write 8 pages.

Fantasies or day dreams are usually pretty quick and easy to work with... Use a few things of your own.
