There are some things that we all did as kids that we have very vivid memories of. The memories are so vivid that we still do them, and we don’t even realize it. But some of the things we still do have been upgraded.
1. Losing our mom in the store!
We still freak out when we lose our moms in the store. We get so scared that we forget that we have cells phones now and we can call them in the store. This is something that seems will never stop happening, no matter what age we are.
2. Sleepovers!
We might be adults now, but we still have sleepovers. Usually, they aren’t planned, they are the result of either studying until the wee hours of the morning or because you’re too drunk to drive home…
3. Crushes!
We still have crushes, we probably always will have crushes too. Back then, we used to creep on our crushes on the playground or during lunch time and gossip with our friends about them. Now, we have Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to help us creep!
4. Dressing up!
We still dress up. Don’t lie to yourselves. We get all dolled up and decked out every now then. But now we can actually go out in public… sometimes.
5. Juice Boxes!
Our love of Juice boxes has turned to the love of box wine.
6. Ice Cream Trucks!
Waiting in line to grab a Totally Tubular or a Strawberry Shortcake ice cream bar at the ice cream truck has turned into waiting in line to get into the bar to grab a Long Island.
7. Naps!
We use to hate taking naps as kids. We just wanted to keep playing. Now, naps are vital to get through your day, and we get upset if we don’t take one or pass out doing whatever we are doing at that moment.
8. Burning CDs!
Making CDs for our friends. Everyone used to love buying the blank disc and picking all the songs your friends were going to love, then burning them a CD and decorating it with stickers and the names of the songs. Now we just make a playlist on Spotify and share it with our friends. (I kind of miss the CDs). We still get turn up, no matter if it's with a CD, a DJ, or Spotify.
9. Passing Notes!
We all loved passing notes to our crushes or friends during class in middle school. But now we text or slide in the DMS… even if we don't know the person.
10. Mixing drinks!
Mixing drinks at the fountain machine… well, now we mix our pops with alcohol… sorry, mom and dad.
