5 Cartoons That We All Miss

There's nothing better than reminiscing on your childhood memories.

5 Cartoons That We All Miss

What would a childhood be without cartoons? Maybe a lack of imagination and creativity, maybe a lack of a significant bond that connects individuals together when we say "Do you remember this?" Or, maybe we wouldn't be "lazy millennials" because TV is the reason a significant number of us millennials struggle with paying for college. This article is about reliving childhood memories and what made us into the person we are.

1. Spongebob

I can't talk about about cartoons and not have "Spongebob" on the list. We all have those few episodes of spongebob we love the most. My personal favorite would have to be the episode where everyone sings sweet victory. It's such an iconic part of spongebob and sets the stage to prepare non-spongebob watches for what's in store. That a spongebob living in a pineapple under the sea can do pretty much anything like be a rock star.


2. Teen Titans

If you seen this show, you already know everything I could say. It was an amazing show and it made no sense why it was cancelled. "Teen Titans: Go" doesn't live up to the original. Beast Boy was awesome. Booyah. But seriously, what isn't there to love about Teen Titans? The characters were very well done. Each had a back story and it drew you into their lives as if they were real. You wanted Raven to overcome her father and her own darkness. You wanted Starfire and Robin to be together. You wanted Beast Boy to get that last slice of pizza. Teen titans combined teenage problems, like stepping out of someone's shadow, with superpowers and the catchiest theme song ever. Like come on you try not singing along.


3. Looney Tunes

I can't put into words the impact that "Looney Tunes" had on me as a child. Apparently, my nickname as a baby was Taz because no one could understand what I was saying and I'd tear up a room in a heartbeat. That being said Bugs bunny will always be my favorite character. My aspirations to be smart and clever all stemmed from Bugs. He outfoxes his own predators. If that isn't cartoons teaching me a successful way to live my life then I don't know what is. Can we expose this new generation to looney tunes, a child hasn't lived until they see the rabbit season episode.

4. Popeye

What better way to get your kids to eat their vegetables than to make them believe they'll get superpowers. Must be what the creator of "Popeye" thought because on those hard nights when a bowl of spinach was put in front of me, the only thing that motivated me to shove it down was the thought that I could have super strength. That being said I'm not benching any cars so my effort was for nothing. Regardless Popeye is a classic. And whether you lied to your kids or believed you would get superpowers you enjoyed this cartoon. My favorite part is all the animations of Popeye's muscles. When you saw his muscles get muscles you knew that it was over for Bruno. One last thing: I can't talk about Popeye without mentioning Robin Williams. R.I.P. You've made the childhood of millions of kids great.

5. Avatar: The Last Air Bender

As always the last choice is definitely the hardest. Choosing which of the millions of cartoons should be included in is not an easy decision, but "Avatar" won the spot this time. A teen not quite ready to face all the responsibility his life brings appealed to me and probably a lot of others. But Aang stepped up, even through his toughest obstacles, including his own morals and beliefs. He had a lot to learn before he was ready to save anyone but we believed that Aang could save the world.

Were these cartoons significant in your childhood? Is there any cartoon that didn't make this list that you would like to see? (Of course there is). Maybe it'll be in part two.

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.

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.

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.
