Deep Indian red is the color called originally called Indian red from its formulation in 1958 until 1999, but now called chestnut, in Crayola crayons. This color was also produced in a special limited edition in which it was called Vermont maple syrup.
At the request of educators worried that children (mistakenly) believed the name represented the skin color of Native Americans, Crayola changed the name of their crayon color Indian Red to Chestnut in 1999.[SUP][4][/SUP] In reality, the color Indian red has nothing to do with American Indians but is an iron oxide pigment the use of which is popular in India.

2. finish this statement: i feel stupid when _________.

3. which color crayon are you?

4. if given the opportunity, what one thing would you instantly change about yourself?

5. did you play sports in school? if yes, which ones?

1. I'm an excellent swimmer and I adore swimming. I hate wearing a swimsuit (and typically won't, I'll wear long shorts and a t-shirt or something) but I adore cool, deep, clear, non-pool water. I grew up with a pool so I've known how to swim since I was a toddler.

2. I feel stupid when I ignore or naively don't see things about a person that affect me negatively until I look back on the relationship later and think, "How did I not see that/do nothing about that?"

3. #122, Violet Blue. I didn't even make it rhyme, it's right there on Wikipdia. I am more of a midnight blue than a purple blue, but the midnight blue on that list isn't the right shade that I'm thinking of, so I didn't chose it.

4. Personality wise? Less shy/self-conscious, more active/adventurous, to be more bold. Physical wise, either my weight, scars, or the fact that I get beet red and sweat like a mongoose on steroids when I exercise. I know it's "normal", but mine is not the normal amount, especially "for a girl". I cheated and chose more than one.

5. I played softball in elementary school and middle school, but I was always stuck in the outfield. I know, I know, "The outfield is important too", I heard that all the time, except it's not as important in middle school, and I also wasn't that great (I was kind of scared of the ball), and my sister was the star pitcher, so I always felt terrible about myself. I played volleyball in middle school and wasn't too shabby at it. Once high school hit, I started babysitting/having jobs so I did that after school instead of sports.
