After listening to a radio station that plays primarily 70's to early 2000's music literally all summer long (and when I'm home in general), I've decided to make a list of all the feelings I have on being obsessed with the 80's and 90's, and how much I love the music, culture, and styles of those past decades I didn't partake in.

1. Listening to a station with songs from a certain decade, and jamming out more than you do to modern day music.

2. Watching T.V. shows and movies from a decade and being up with the slang.

3. “Why can’t theme songs be as good as they used to be?”

4. Watching modern T.V. shows about a past decade and wanting to automatically join the characters (i.e. “The Carrie Diaries,” “Hindsight”).

5. Thinking on a daily basis, “Kids these days don’t know how good they have it.”

6. Hearing your parents talk about their lives when you were their age and feeling a sense of jealousy or longing to be in that time.

7. Hearing the opening to a hit, but obscure song from the decade and automatically breaking out into a complete singing and dancing mode

8. Asking your parents for their old clothing so you can wear it to look just like a kid from that time.

9. Or, if they gave it all away, going to a thrift shop or Goodwill just to get some outfits from there to put together.

10. Knowing you have the best of both worlds by being up to date on the times and well informed on the old ones.

Maybe you were born in the wrong decade, but at least you can still apreciate what they had going back then
