6 Things From The Early 2000s That We Should Bring Back

In This Article:

Maybe I was just really dorky... Probably. Regardless, I am a firm believer that my generation (those who grew up in the early 2000s) had the greatest television and toys. Take a moment, read this article, and reminisce about these gems.

1. "Lizzie McGuire"

The golden child of pre-teen drama, "Lizzie McGuire" taught me everything: From boys to bras to falling in love in Rome. It was 100% the best show on after school, by far.

2. "CatDog"

"CatDog" was so weird. But it did always deliver a laugh and always kept you wondering how that animal worked, biologically.

"Kim Possible"

KIM WAS THE OG GIRL BOSS. She was a spy, cheerleader, and teenage girl... Can you scream "early 2000s" any louder?

4. Tamagotchi 

THIS WAS THE DEFINITION OF COOL KID'S TOY. I remember that all the cool girls in elementary school always had their Tamagotchis. If you wanted to sit with the cool girls, you best have one, too. Tamagotchis were little key chains that housed blob that you needed to feed, play with, and create its house... Or it would die. Yikes. But they were super cool.

5. Walkman 

I thought I was so cool when I would play my new CD. I would eagerly buy CDs and put them in my hot pink portable CD player. I mean, the iPod nano wasn't even out yet. I feel so old and I'm not even 20, yet.

6. Silly Bandz

EVERYONE HAD SILLY BANZ. EVERYONE TRADED SILLY BANZ. It's simple science–the higher the bands went up your arms, the cooler you were.

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.
