1. Chokers & Lisa Frank

2. The main way of communicating with your friends was via AIM and Myspace #DuckFace

3. Limited Too, Abercrombie and Fitch, Hollister

" "World," "House," "World," "

4. Classic Disney Channel and Nickelodeon series are the REAL MVP — "Lizzie McGuire," "Full House," "Boy Meets World," "That's So Raven," "Hannah Montana," "Rugrats," "Even Stevens," "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody," "the Amanda Show" and "Zoog Disney" #NeverForget

5. Your first crush rocked the Justin Bieber haircut aka "The Shag" and a popped polo collar with a moose on the shirt.

8. You thought you were beast when you perfected a Lil Wayne song

9. Mario Cart is the best game of all time

10. Trips to Blockbuster... Blockbuster and chill?

11. You had a favorite Jonas Brother....poor Kevin

12. Team Jacob or Team Edward?

13. You watched "Fred" and Jenna Marbles on Youtube

14. You had all of these CD's: Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, N'Sync, Aaron Carter, P!nk...

15. You owned Polly Pockets, Barbies, MyScene and Bratz Dolls (but could never play them together)

16. The Lizzie McGuire movie changed your life — When she slays “What Dreams Are Made Of” you just can’t help but sing along (because you still know every single word.... no shame.)

17. The "High School Musical" movies gave you extremely unrealistic expectations for high school.

18. You had a million pairs of Soffe shorts

19. Your Myspace top eight friends list caused a lot of drama between you and your friends

22. If you didn't have a razor you weren't doing life right. #TooSoon #NotBitter

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
