Childhood Crushes I'm Still Not Over

Does one really ever get over a childhood crush?

I think we can all agree that there are certain celebrity crushes from our childhood that we will never get over. We may not talk about it all the time, or even think about them, but when that movie or song comes on you best believe we're fangirling like we're 13 all over again. From Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez to Austin Ames, here are the childhood crushes I'm still not over.

1. Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez (The Sandlot)

I don't think I've ever loved baseball so much in my life.

2. Jesse McCartney

If you didn't freak out like London and Maddie did whenever Beautiful Soul came on, are you even a girl?

3. Austin Ames (A Cinderella Story)/Lucas Scott (One Tree Hill)

Chad Michael Murray....setting unrealistic high school expectations since '03

4. Andy Brinker (Brink!)/Josh Bryant (The Princess Diaries)

I'm pretty sure for a full week after watching "Brink!" I wanted to be a professional rollerblader, unfortunately that didn't pan out. My crush on Josh lasted all of about half the movie, till he proved what a jerk he was, poor Mia!

5. Proto Zoa (Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century)

If you didn't jam out to Zoom, Zoom, Zoom and want to be Proto Zoa's Supernova girl you're lying.

6. Phil (Phil of the Future)

Insert heart eye emojis

7. The Jonas Brothers

When you were in love with Nick and Joe, and felt bad for Kevin. It's okay Kevin, we all still loved you!

8. Gordo (Lizzie McGuire)

He may not have been our crush at the time, but looking back Gordo is the epitome of friendship goals & a perfect example of boys that should NEVER be put in the friendzone!!

9. Troy Bolton (High School Musical)

He may not be Troy Bolton anymore, but lucky for us, Zac Efron only gets better with age.

10. Jake Ryan and Jesse (Hannah Montana)

The episode where Miley chooses between Jake Ryan and Jesse was hands down the most stressful part of my childhood. #TeamJesse

11. Aaron Carter

I want candy was my anthem. (PS he follows me on twitter #dead)

12. Ryan Sheckler

Because one picture just isn't enough to express how still in love with Ryan Sheckler I am.

13. Uncle Jesse (Full House)

Have you ever seen a more attractive eye roll? Have mercy.

14. Shawn Hunter (Boy Meets World)

The screw up that everyone was rooting for.

15. Jack Hunter (Boy Meets World)

And we can't forget Shawn's half brother who made "Boy Meets World" even better than it already was, if that was even possible.

16. Landon Carter (A Walk To Remember)

The reason every girl thinks they can turn a bad boy, good.

17. Nathan Scott (One Tree Hill)

The original jerk turned nice guy.

18. Logan Reese (Zoey 101)

Even when you hated him, you still loved him.

19. Zack and Cody (The Suite Life of Zack & Cody)

Twin heartthrobs from day 1

20. Shark Boy (The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl)

Before anyone knew just how attractive Taylor Lautner could be as a werewolf.

21. Derek (The Cheetah Girls)

I think we all died a little inside when Derek brushed Galleria's cheek and thought it was the most scandalous thing we'd ever seen.

22. Kyle Johnson (The Luck of the Irish)/Ben Cooper (Smart House)

Good at basketball and threw raging parties? How could we possibly get over this crush.

23. Cadet Major Brad Rigby (Cadet Kelly)

Girls love a guy in uniform.

24. Jordan Cahill (Stuck in the Suburbs)

The original "Justin Bieber" and every girls favorite rockstar.

25. Galen Alderman (Double Teamed)

A lot of people may not remember this beautiful human being, but I sure do and he's still worth crushing over.

26. Jesse Aarons (Bridge to Terabithia)

Before he was known to the world as Peeta Mellark, Josh Hutcherson captured our hearts as Jesse from Bridge to Terabithia and we only grew to love him more.

The list could go on and on forever, but these are just some of my childhood crushes I'm still not over and probably never will be. You can most definitely catch me fangirling over all these handsome fella's for the rest of time.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
