10 Things '90s Kids Will Never Forget

10 Things '90s Kids Will Never Forget

1. Dinosaur Oatmeal

The best part was trying to find all the sugar eggs before they melted in the hot oatmeal. This was the kind of breakfast your mom never let you eat more than once a week.


2. Furbies

Nobody was quite sure what type of animal this toy was supposed to resemble. You could turn them off, put them in a closet, and they would still keep on talking.


3. Ring Pops

You were automatically deemed awesome if you brought one of these to school in your lunchbox, or to a playdate with a friend. Many hours were spent after school begging your mom to let you try the newest flavor.


4. Bop It!

You know you were always jealous of that one person that could play forever on this thing, while you were stuck twisting it when you should've been bopping it!


5. Jelly Bracelets

These, eventually, got banned from some schools because of the constant mess and distraction they caused. As I remember, each color had a different meaning and if you broke one you were in deep trouble.


6. Easy Bake Ovens

No mini chocolate chip cookie or cake will ever measure up to the ones made in this little oven. Using the tiny spatula to retrieve the tiny tin of cakes was by far the most exciting part.


7. Hit Clips

These little guys were so easy and cheap to collect. Hit Clips only carried the classic songs, of course (like "Bye Bye Bye" and "A Thousand Miles").


8. Jellies

You could sport these with any outfit imaginable. The best ones were infused with glitter and could probably be bought for about a dollar.


9. Bear in the Big Blue House

I bet you had no idea just how much you missed this show until reading this. Bear had epic problem solving skills and with the help of his friends, (the lemur, the bear cup, the mouse, and 'shadow') passed on those skills to us '90s kids.


10. Portable CD Players

If you were walking down the street with one of these in your hand, you were more than likely getting bombarded by your friends wanting to listen and see which new hot CD you had.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
