An Attempt at being creative

Today, I am going to try and be creative. To exercise my creativity by thinking of random things and thinking about those random things differently. I will just be stating everything I think about when I think of something. This is going to be very messy. Here we go.

Okay let's see. Trees. Umm, they provide shade and oxygen. Maple Syrup from the maple tree. Christmas. It takes 3-4 trees to provide enough oxygen for one person. Houses! Yes, they are made of wood. Right? wow a lot of things are made of wood. Never really thought about that... I think that's it. Wasn't really creative....

Crayons? Umm, I guess they can substitute candles. Apparently they can burn for 30 minutes. Not bad. Rainbow? cuz all the colors create the colors of the rainbow. What does a crayon taste like? What can crayons be used for? I guess you can use the colors to change the color of something, like a shirt, although that's like the main purpose of crayons. uhh. Crafts! Yay. Melt a ton of crayons, then let it cool. Bam, you have a paperweight. Although you could use that with a regular crayon that isn't melted. Wtv, it was worth a shot.

Pringles? the ring. Ya know, the challenge where you try to create a ring use pringles. Eating. A wide variety of flavors. you can use the bottle to hold eggs. I mean, I used a pasta box to hold eggs so I guess it's kinda the same thing? ish? Ohhh, you can put pasta!!!! like the spaghetti noodles? I think you can grow a plant inside a pringles can because you just fill it with dirt and a seed and add water. you can use it as a water bottle. A pencil pouch.

Umm, I think I've had enough for one day. Bye.

Cups

Remember when I said I started playing poker a lot? Well, I think that's going to change because I don't think that being a pro at gambling is something to be proud about. I'm going to quit online poker even though it's fake money. I know this is kind of random, but I feel like it will help me remember. Anyways, back to the topic stated in the title.

Cups are so simple. When you think of cups, you probably don't think of anything special or beyond this world. But when you look closely, and really think about it, you will see cups in a way you've never seen them before. It's all about your perspective and creativity.

According to some dictionary, creativity is a mental characteristic that allows a person to think outside the box, which results in innovative or different approaches to certain things.

At first glance, a cup seems ordinary. Something that you use to drink water or juice. When a creative person looks at a cup, what they see is not an ordinary cup that is used to drink water. They see a tool that can be used to dig dirt. A pot to grow plants. They think about the story of the cup. Where it came from, the way it was made. Now, I am not the most creative person out there. In fact, I barely exercise my creativity. Action plan: I will exercise my creativity more, and by doing so, I will have a different view of the world.
