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"

Giphy

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?"

Giphy

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!"

Giphy

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"

Giphy

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"

Giphy

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"

Giphy

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!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
