Being the gum connoisseur that I am and blueberry being my favorite flavor, when Malabar came out with a "new, exciting flavor: a burst of blueberry in ever bite", I just couldn’t resist. I stood outside the newsstand eagerly tapping my foot as the man opened the shipment box, the first shipment to come to my area and I was right there at the front of the line, money already counted. I bought three or four packs of the gum right away and ran off with them. As I began the long walk back to my apartment, I opened the package and slipped the gum into my mouth.

Another sunny day, another day sunning myself at my folks' place. I would go elsewhere but I never knew what circumstances might make me, well, grow. If I was in any other garment of clothing other than a bathing suit, I would be glad to wander out in the masses, bulging with air or not.

I always loved bubble gum as a girl. I chewed and chewed, stuffing big wads of bubble gum in my mouth then blowing huge bubbles. I liked to blow the biggest bubbles and probably had the biggest bubbles in the neighborhood. My aunt, who always disliked me, would give me a hard time about my gum chewing. She said one day my chewing and bubble blowing would affect me. I thought she meant cavities--but little did I know just how it would affect me...

After a long day at work or play, I always feel it's refreshing to the body and soul to take a little break and rest. Returning home from a long day at work, I quickly disrobed, leaving only my little white bodysuit that I preferred to traditional undergarments. I was so sleepy, my eyes burned. I laid down on my big cushy comforter and snuggled in for a little shut eye. I fell asleep almost instantly.
