12 Things From Your Childhood That Are Still Awesome
MTV

Technological innovations have made present day so much different from our childhood. With things like the iPhone, Macbook and so on, we have lost sight of all the beautiful things in our past! Here are some things that shouldn't be forgotten!

1. Friends

The original besties, our on-screen family. Let's face it, "Friends" will always be our favorite show. The original humor and quick wit cast has a way of captivating us and warming our hearts. PTL for re-runs!!

2. Skip- It

The best way to exercise without realizing it. If you could get more than 10 skips in, then you were a pro. I might actually workout if we bring these back!

3. Hit Clips

Save your iPhone storage and battery ,and break out those Hit Clips again! Also, please play NSYNC as your first song, promise you won't regret it!

4. Razzles

If you've seen "13 Going on 30," then you know that razzles are still the bomb. Thank you to Jenna Rink for reminding us of our favorite candy!

5. Disney Movies

Beyond thankful for Disney's live action remakes bringing our favorite classics to life! I really hope Pocahontas and Snow White are next on the list!

6. Scrunchies

I don't care what you say, these work the best and are highly unappreciated! Plus, they're cute!

7. Yoo-hoo

The best chocolate drink there will ever be, of course. They're still around, but the boxed yoohoos should be in everyone's home.. no further discussion!

8. Fresh Prince of Bell-Air

This will forever be how I remember Will Smith. I applaud him on his wide variety of films and growth in acting ability, but nothing will ever beat fresh Will! Again, PTL for re-runs!

9. Wonder Balls

WHERE ARE THESE THINGS?!? Bring them back NOW!

10. Lizzie McGuire

Still wanting my own cartooned conscience like Lizzie's, and the movie!! Singing "This Is What Dreams Are Made Of" currently.

11. Barbies


Before the days of reality tv, this is where the magic happened. Barbie and Ken were always in a fight, and Theresa and Barbie were constantly hitting the city in the platinum Barbie convertible.. Ah! Those were the days!

12. Jesse McCartney

Dude, Jess, where are you? I know she's no me, but I need to hear a 2016 remake to remind me!

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
