grammar, grammar, grammar. also, grammar. The second sentence is not a complete sentence. I saw you use the text slang "thru." All thoughts on topic aside, whenever you arrive at your final essay topic, please take it to a university writing center or a friend with VERY good editing skills.
edit: Verb tenses are often incorrect also.

The first paragraph should be scrapped entirely. I lost count of the incomplete sentences. You need to learn how to use a semicolon. The language is waaaaay too informal, almost conversational.
Just for starters.
