I think it's slightly biased of me to say this (because I am a 90's baby, hahaha!), but I think the previous generations had some of the best and most memorable cartoon shows. Coming home from school, I used to rush, dropped my book bag, and got to homework straight away, so that when I finished, my mom would let me watch TV. Sadly, those days are behind us and so are those shows! So here I am, reminiscing about the most amazing toons back in my childhood! Hope you agree!


1. "Tom and Jerry"

The perfect dynamic duo! The laughter and enjoyment coming from these two are infinite! The series spans many, many generations and so, when I was younger, I remember watching these hilarious episodes with my dad!

2. "Scooby Doo, Where Are You?"

Solving mysteries and crimes with the best gang and their coo-coo dog was so much fun! I loved every aspect of this show as well as the movies that were made off of this series!

3. "Yu-Gi-Oh!"

This Japanese cartoon series was the most adventurous! My cousin and I used to come home and watch this together! We were so fond of it that my cousin and our friends also had the Duel Disk to battle cards on!

4. "SpongeBob SquarePants"

This show has been going on forever and to be completely honest, I never enjoyed the show as much in my younger childhood years than I did later in my teens and young adulthood years! I hate to admit it, but I still think it's awesome to watch the misadventures of this sea sponge!

5. "Caillou"

This show talks about some important topics and character traits that need to be taught to children at a very young age! Between the relationships with his mom, dad, and Rosie, Caillou taught the audience how to be a good friend and sibling!

6. "Magic School Bus"

One of my greatest memories from school are related to this show! On many occasions, this show has given me amazing knowledge and made it enjoyable to learn about so many topics from the crazy field trips that Mrs. Frizzle and her students took!

7. "Arthur"

In this elementary school classic, a young Arthur Read and his friends teach us about childhood problems and relatable instances that we have all faced! Its funny at times as well as deals with important topics in childhood such as bullying, snarky teachers and HOMEWORK!



Even though these days are far behind me, I still admit to sitting down with my siblings and enjoying these shows! It reminds me of what it was like to be carefree and without a worry of the world!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
