If I had a ticket in my hand that could me to any destination I wanted, I would want to visit Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory. Imagine all of your childhood dreams come true and you win a ticket to a place that is completely filled with all of your favorite and sweetest candies. Even containing treats that are new and have never been heard of or tasted before. Who hasn’t had that fantasy? Ever since I was a kid, I remember watching the movie “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”and often asking my parents if we could pay a visit there. It undoubtedly looked like a very delightful and imaginative place where creativity was always happening. When Mr. Wonka opened the door and let everyone in the factory, they obviously were surprised yet satisfied by the river of chocolate, edible mushrooms and other astonishing and unthinkable sweets. Just looking at all of the artistic fascinations you could do with candy could make someone feel extremely optimistic about life. Although his inventions seem somewhat strange to some people, they are unique, successful and have never been thought of before.

The very short, green haired men with an orange complexion rather disturbed me as a kid. I just couldn’t understand why they were in the movie in the first place and why they looked so abnormal.

She ended up becoming a giant blueberry and had to be rolled

    Gender War Through Writing It is obvious that people have the tendency to favor the gender that they identify with over the other, and often put the two against each other. The common assumption is that children usually portray this bias behavior, and as they get older, they grow out of it. Although this is the stereotypical belief, this behavior does not always die off with childhood, instead sticking with some throughout their entire adulthood, leaving those to choose to act upon it, some through writing. The Bell Jar and One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest are two novels written with the theme of madness.…

His lozenges were small discs that tasted bad so Chase put a hard candy shell on the outside of these discs.
