If I were a Crayon

Topics: Color, Olfaction, American inventions Pages: 2 (400 words) Published: October 17, 2014
My name is Bubblegum and I was born in 1994. I am pink and I am just one crayon in a family of 16 magic scent crayons. As you may have guessed, I smell like delicious bubble gum. I was a favorite among girls and I have been used to color many beautiful flowers. Unfortunately my delicious smell led to my untimely death in 1995 because children liked to eat me.

As you can tell from the opening, Bubblegum is no longer available for comment. If I were a crayon I would choose to be Bubblegum because of the great smell and fun that I had as a child when I colored with the magic scent crayons. Bubblegum was always the first crayon that I had to sharpen because I would use it so much. Of course no picture is complete with just one color but I would always find ways to make odd things pink when they should have or could have been another color. For instance, I would always make sure that a cat had a pink nose or a girls shoe laces were pink. I loved to smell the bubble gum scent as I was coloring pictures but I was never hungry enough to have a taste.

The other crayons in the box, such as; blueberry, banana, grape, shampoo, sasquatch socks and alien armpits were fun but not as appealing to use. Not to mention, a few of them weren't as pleasant to smell. Due to my obsession with pink bubblegum magic scent crayons I had roughly 8 boxes of crayons which were nearly brand new other than a missing pink bubblegum. I would love to buy a box of these for my children, but as Bubblegum mentioned at the beginning of the paper they are no longer on the market.

In closing I want to leave you with a little bit of a surprise. If you look on the next page of this paper, there is a spot of pink bubblegum scented crayon. If you give it a rub with your thumb to apply heat then hold it to your nose you will be able to smell the lovely scent of bubblegum. Please do not eat this paper, as it may be hazardous to your health. If I were a crayon, I would be pink bubblegum.

  • If I Were a Boy Essay

    ...control and the opportunity to let their imagination create a brand new story with a song. Although it may not always be the intentions, when a cover song is made the message of the song is altered to a certain extent. The song “If I Were a Boy” was originally done by the R&B/soul artist Beyonce Knowles and wonderfully remade by Urban Country artist Reba McEntire. Once the genre changed from one artist to another the message of the song changed the strength of the woman but despite the difference in genre both artist depict their anger and frustration towards men and how they were hurt by a man. The song “If I were a Boy” was sung by two entirely different women with two different upbringings. Both Beyonce and Reba are well known for their outstanding performances and dramatic vocal cords.

  • If I Were the President Essay

    ...once a time when I escaped the hustles of the world. I found myself walking alone in a dark and lonely street. Trash was scattered everywhere and the street was filled with rats. I was deeply moved and saddened by the frightful sight. While I was walking down the street, I saw a boy. The boy had eyes similar to a jaguar’s but showed signs of depression; he was so thin that his bones were clearly outlined under his skin and his clothes were half torn, half worn. I approached the boy and asked, “Why are you staying in such a place?” He replied, “I have nowhere to go.” “Then why stay here? Where is your home? Where are your parents?” I asked. Tears began to flow from his eyes while he told me his story, “My father left us when I was still 5 and my mother was just a struggling housewife at that time. My mother had to find a job so that she could support our financial needs but the only job she could find paid a low salary. To make matters worse, my brother had been infected with an unknown disease and was immediately rushed to the hospital. My mother was forced to work at a bar to earn extra money so she could pay for the hospital bill. Unfortunately my brother did not make it and died after several days. My mother had a mental breakdown because of the death of my brother and didn’t know where to get extra money to pay for...

  • If I Were a Boy Essay

    ...In her song “If I Were a Boy,” Beyonce argues that many women are trapped in bad relationships and never take the time to question how they truly desire to be treated. To confirm this, Beyonce is attempting to look at her unhealthy relationship as if she were in her significant others shoes. She makes an effort to develop an understanding of what it is like to be the man in the relationship, and see how he can just passively mistreat a girl. Beyonce later discovers that she would treat others how she would want to be treated because she understands how it is to be hurt by someone. She also finds that most guys do not care whether or not their significant others are suffering because of their actions. Beyonce establishes credibility for her lyrics by using the three appeals: pathos, ethos, and logos. These appeals are utilized to influence her audience, not let a man control their lives, but live there lives the way they want, and find a man that can treat them better than they have been treated in their past. Also, the use of repetition and form are used to establish her points within the song. Lastly, she wants her listeners to visualize how it could be if they were the other person, and question whether or not their outlook would be different. Beyonce uses pathos, the first of the three appeals in her song by using very descriptive phrases. When she states, “I’d listen to her, `cause I know how it...

  • If I Were Premier of Manitoba Essay

    ...IF I WERE ELECTED PREMIER OF MANITOBA Canada is a fantastic country and Manitoba is one of my favourite provinces, but of course, I am a little biased. Although Manitoba is a great place to live, there are some things that would make our province even better. If I were ever Premier of Manitoba, it would be a long way into the future but I see the future of Manitoba as a bright and prosperous place, where our province has no deficit, has the best graduation rates in the country and has way higher standards of healthcare. With the future in mind, I would address our financial deficit first as Premier. The 2013-2014 budget still predicts a deficit of $518 million and although the Provincial Sales Tax will be increasing to 8%, we only see a $16 million decrease from 2012-2013’s projected deficit.1 I believe that by trying to solve the issues at hand, we can begin to work towards a debt-free future. Our flooding issues here in Manitoba contribute greatly to our deficit and finding a way to solve this problem once and for all would mean we don’t need to spend millions of dollars reimbursing farmers and others who have suffered from flood damage. $1.025 billion2 was spent on the 2011 flood with numbers still expected to rise at least $250 million higher. An enormous amount of money that ends up contributing to our deficit. Creating job opportunities is another...

  • If I Were a Scientist Essay

    ...If I were a scientist, I would like to carry on my work in the sphere of pure science. Pure science is a relentless search for truth for the discoveries of the mysteries of nature. As such no fault finding is possible with pure scientific research which has broadened the frontiers of man's knowledge about himself and the world. It is systematized knowledge and its pursuit has led to the unravelling of the mysteries of nature and the harnessing of its wonderful power. What the scientist discovers in the seclusion of his laboratory after years of research leads to far-reaching result in our practical life. I want to be just one such humble devotee in the shrine of the goddess of science. If I were a scientist I would like to be independent of powerful business and industrial magnates who try to exploit scientists for their own selfish ends. Normally, every human being is desirous of peace, progress, plenty and prosperity. But actual experience shows that man's conduct is not always governed by these noble principles. Self-interest, ambition, the spirit of aggression, jealously and the desire to climb to the upper social strata often get the better of man's nobler emotions. A scientist is also a man subject to these weaknesses. He can be lured away from his right path by the prospects of fame, material gain or other earthly considerations. Now business and industry are by and...
