I'd be using the revolve tool to model a straw.

OFC this is by no means the only way.

Heres a link with some info about basic modeling:
https://web.alfredstate.edu/ciat/tuto...icModeling.htm

That should get you going in the right direction. As for texturing, just do it yourself......you can learn what you need very quickly and its an ideal model if its your first time texturing.
