Write about a news event from when you were still in school and how it made you feel.
The only one I can remember (I don't, and didn't, read the news much) was Brexit. I think generally we just thought it was a bit of a silly idea. Generally, the EU seems very sound to me, though I don't think the UK should adopt the Euro. Leaving it has made little impact, it feels like, except that now we feel a little less privy to the advancements the EU makes (legislatively) and seem to want to be American, despite us (with good reason!) scorning the US. We were slightly disappointed, I guess, but went on with our lives the very next day.
