Crayola Crayons

It starts in Kindergarten with a box of Crayola Crayons, a piece of paper, and an imagination that is endless.

Now, we wonder what we were thinking in Kindergarten with all those silly crayons, all the stupid pictures we drew, but back then we thought we were the most important people in the world and all those stupid pictures we drew were masterpieces. Hell, our parents even hung them up on the fridge for friends and family to see.

 They must have thought we were pretty important then and that we had a wonderful imagination. So, why isn't it that way now? Why does the teacher make us type research papers rather than draw pictures with crayons and why don't we get a nap time, most importantly, why are there no juice boxes handed out? It's like they're sucking the creativity and imagination right out of our heads and I say we change things up.

I say we get an hour or two during the school day dedicated to being in Kindergarten again because those were the days. Those were the days where we could be carefree and not worry about a single thing. The days where we could take our Crayola Crayons and scribble lines all over the paper, sometimes even the wall, and get put in time out to think about what we did wrong.

Man, what i'd give to go back to those days just one last time. Sometimes, I still carry my Crayola Crayons in my backpack just in case I feel like being in Kindergarten again.
