10 Items You Wanted 10 Years Ago
CBS

10 years ago, it was all about who had the coolest gadget on the bus ride home, who wore the hippest shoes that somehow got around dress code and who was the first to get a cell phone in your class. Here are 10 items you begged for, and if you were an only child, you might have squeezed out of your parents during a moment of weakness:

1. Coach Tennis Shoes

Oh, the nouveau riche brands that wreaked havoc on the middle 2000s. If you wanted a pair of shoes to perfectly compliment khaki shorts and Abercrombie polo, look no further.


2. Ed Hardy T-shirts

You definitely wanted one of these after you watched Rock of Lovewith Brett Michaels on VH1. So edgy. So grownup. So something you shouldn't have been watching.


3. Chanel Earrings

These DEFINED classy in 2006, amiright? If you got them, they were probably fake, but nobody needed to know that...

4. Colored iPod Nano

Pink meant you were girly, blue meant you were cool and green meant you quirky. If you had a plain silver one you might as well have just used a Walkman.

5. Dooney and Bourke Barrel Bag

Like the saying goes: the closer to the armpit the closer to God.


6. Jersey Gaucho Pants

So breezy! So effortless! Pair with ballet flats and a bolero/cami duo and you were ready for the 7th grade dance.


7. LG Chocolate

If you’re anything like me, you can still hear “Candyman” by Christina Aguilera playing during the commercial.


8. Portable DVD Player

You could take it everywhere, your room, the back row of the minivan—it just made so much sense.


9. LiveStrong Bracelets

My school outlawed them, which leads me to wonder, did they know Lance Armstrong was doping years before we did?


10. ~*The Gold RAZR*~

The crème de la crème. You knew one person who had this, and it just set them a level above. You might’ve had the pink or silver one, but you were a plebian.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
