Creative Hour with Kleenex.

Your goal is to create a minimum of 300 words in one hour on one of the following topics. You may use a dictionary or thesaurus. You must do your best with the time you have! Hand in what you have finished after exactly one hour. Write with the highest level of diction and creativity that you can!

Ten things you can do with Kleenex:

1. Make flowers.
2. Blow your nose.
3. Wipe away tears.
4. Stuff your bra.
5. Wipe off make-up.
6. A skirt for your Barbie doll.
7. Clean your glasses.
8. Tape into a ball, and throw it at somebody.
9. Clean up a mess.
10. Use as toilet paper when you run out.

Kleenex has been around for the past eighty five years or so, but its initial use wasn't for actually blowing your nose. Kleenex was actually a facial tissue to use for removing cold cream back in the mid 1920s. It wasn't until the 1930s that Kleenex actually marketed its product as a "disposable handkerchief." Kleenex today, is probably most used for blowing your nose when you have a cold or sometimes even the flu. A box of Kleenex can also be handy during a sad romantic movie, so that when needed, you can dig your nose into a soft facial tissue and let it all out. Kleenex isn't just always there when you are watching a sad movie, but also when there are events like funerals, weddings, sad days, and even those "I laughed so hard I started to cry" days. Even though Kleenex isn’t the most eco-friendly product, or the most sanitary thing lying around after being used, it still can help you get through even the hardest days, or toughest times. As a regular costumer of Kleenex products, I feel relieved to know that Kleenex can help me look better and prevent me from having raccoon eyes, from all those days and nights of crying without having applied water proof mascara. Kleenex has been a security for many old ladies sticking them in their shirt sleeve for easy access when they feel a running nose or a tear in their eye coming along. To sum it all up, Kleenex will always be there, no matter what the movie, day, event, or year. People will constantly be coming up with a new use for this amazing product. I hope that Kleenex might get a little more eco-friendly, but as long as they are helping me through my days they can stay on the market. Friends may go, and people may come, but Kleenex will always be there to cry on.
